I didn’t watch the BAFTA’s but this must have been very funny. I can remember many years ago watching the documentary about John Davidson, hardly anyone had heard of Tourette’s at the time, this made it both fascinating and hilarious. I remember one part when he was in a greenhouse and the teacher dropped a plant pot, John immediately blurted out ‘Fuckin idiot’

Indeed. It's almost as if the 'Sports Scientists' don't take human nature into account...

1) Stephen Colbert was due to interview Texas Democrat candidate James Tarrico on his chat show. 2) There is a rarely imposed FCC regulation about "political balance" that states if a news or current affairs program has a politician being interviewed then a politician from the other side must also be interviewed. This regulation explicitly EXCLUDES chat shows. 3) PARAMOUNT, which is the corporation that owns CBS, the channel on which Colbert's show airs, needs the approval of the Trump administration to complete a major business merger. 4) The head of the FCC, Brendan Carr, wrote to CBS telling them that he was re-interpreting the regulation and the Tarrico interview could not take place. CBS's lawyers informed Colbert that the interview could not be broadcast and that Colbert could not inform the audience as to why. 5) Colbert, nontheless, DID say on air that the interview had been suppressed, and why. He then recorded the interview off air and posted it on his YOUTUBE channel, having told the studio audience and viewers of the broadcast show, "If you go to our YOUTUBE channel you might, coincidentally, discover that an interview with James Tarrico has somehow appeared there". So much for the First Amendment protection of free speech.

But as another poster put it, this was 2 years after Antonio, so can't say the two were related. Must admit I thought you and me thought more about the performance on the pitch rather than £sd. Gaston was actually pretty good before his dead leg problem set in. Very popular among the crowd (the ones at the stadium rather than the keyboard warriors). Things went wrong I agree, but really don't think he was a disaster. Osvaldo was a disaster granted..Again a real shame though because lime GR he was a very good signing and talented player, just a shame that he was a bell end.

As I started this post (what a mess I made of it, too).. BUT most of you have grasped the nettle and the recent "comments on age " concerned Larin (who has helped us win 2 games so far). Just look back at the start of his thread and see who condemned him - simply because of his age. IF he were to stay..? he's unlikely to be getting a 3-4 year contract, but a player on form is certainly one to keep regardless of age, and he may even end up in the Canadian squad for the World Cup. My other reference to " 27 year old " came from the 2009 dialogue between Pardew and Cortese (who on his own admission knew f*** a** about English football ) and Pardew - already an experienced manager and former player. Fortunately Pardew convinced NC that his "age-bias" was unwarranted. Experience is vital in every side - especially one with quite young talents, and it was interesting to hear Cam Bragg praising the help he's getting from Oriel Romeo on a daily basis. Ironically neither of them will get a lot of game time for rest of this season, but the young man is learning from the older one's experience. Experienced players are the source of encouragement for the younger ones, and the storyline behind the success of Alan Ball's partnership with the young Steve Williams was part of Saints legend in the late 1970's

I think it's Preston North End actually. I checked.

I think we suffered from making so many changes for the FA Cup game against Leicester. I get the idea of giving players a break but it rarely leads to a good performance in the next game - a bit like when we always look sluggish after an international break. Should have rested a couple but not the whole side. No need for it.

Exactly, people can complain but SR have probably wasted way more money than Wrexham have spent.
-
On the final day, we play Preston. Preston Knob End.

Our DiL's brother has Tourette's and at her wedding to our son he on several occassions uttered the'N' word at the Camaroonian vicar conducting the ceremony. As we had warned him ahead of the proceedings he took it in good stead.

Inclusion trump cards needed

We are so inconsistent that it is most likley that we will fall by the wayside on the run in and never make a serious challenge for sixth spot. Beating QPR will be fine but it's the teams above us that we need to beat to close the gap.

Keeping Track of the Contracts 2025-26
Charlie Wayman replied to Over land and sea's topic in The Saints
Not sure he will have any options beyond Saints with his injury record. Nobody will take a chance on him unless he bangs in fifteen or twenty goals before the season's end. -

Hull are in free fall, so it isn't just Wrexham we're chasing. Has the feel of our first season in League 1 to me though. Just have to keep going and win our own games. The teams above us are having wobbles - so win our games and we'll get into it.

In fact, there are several reasons why we are seeing more and more clubs in the third division: - Club management is not always perfect; clubs do not get relegated by ‘accident’. - Also, a few years ago, the French league was restructured. Before that, the top three French leagues were defined as follows: Ligue 1 -> 20 clubs Ligue 2 -> 20 clubs National 1 -> 20 clubs and now: Ligue 1 -> 18 clubs Ligue 2 -> 18 clubs National 1 -> 18 clubs Even though for the past two years, the championship has been played with 17 teams instead of 18. Last year, FC Girondins de Bordeaux and AC Ajaccio this year... In general, French football has been in crisis for several years, with a decline in TV rights causing financial problems for all clubs...

One good thing is we’ll get around 6,000 tickets for that which will be handy particularly if something still on it. Another thing that may help tomorrow night is the crowd actually being up for it. It’s been a shit atmosphere all season at St Mary’s, the place should have been rocking as we piled on for the win towards the end of Saturday’s game but it was crap.

Yes, was thinking of Blackburn away game for some reason. Dark days of the season.

Preston away is last game of season
