  1. I thought that was the new Valenciennes shirt, combining a V firmly with the direction SR have taken them in. Would @FredVaFC59100 and @ChristopheVAFC approve?
  2. His Spitting Image puppet was considered to be a more engaging, dynamic leader.
  3. Breaking News: Southampton bosses flee country ahead of FA probe. "They're on the lam(b)," said Doris the tea lady, who will be managing the team next season.
  4. "It's an honour to host the World Cup but the event is not an invitation to exploit our residents and visitors." New Jersey attorney general Jennifer Davenport's comments come as a shock to Fifa's chief grifter and Bond villain stand in, Gianni Infantino. New Yoik and New Joisey launch investigations into dynamic ticket gouging and artificially inflating accomodation prices (which a lot of hotels were in on) https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c5yrzl46d4ro
  5. Everyone at the club will turn up at the first fixture and act surprised that we're in this league. "However did that happen? Oh well, might as well get on with things."
  6. We've had worse.
  7. It's been a low bar for so long, that anyone with decent communication skills and fake sincerity would be a massive improvement. I did catch a sound it's of him saying that the party needs to decide on it's direction, and then pick a leader. And that all candidates should be very clear on the direction they want to take, before voting. Sadly, all the candidates will be trying to say as little as possible, in the most generic way, while briefing and back stabbing against the others. I got the impression, even in those 2 mins, he was hinting that the left of Corbyn was unelectable. Anyone near it, may find it exactly the same.
  8. Very nice. I'm not usually a fan of a sash look.
  9. The club seemed to resent having to buy THB and Downes, when we went up. Even though one of them, I'm sure, was an option to buy. They felt it took much more out of their budget than they would have liked. Peretz and Larin showed how important it was to use the loan system. I think that they just didn't like the amount, and wished they could negotiate down, rather than being tied to a value.
  10. We send an intern around the country, with set piece tactics high on his list. It's so poorly implemented, that Taylor is fired. We get better at set pieces. Taylor then uses that information to cost us points. There's some ironing there.
  11. JWP was very decent for us. Like a lot of players, he was fitting into systems a lot of the time. When we pushed him up a little, he looked decent going forward. He was definitely still one of our better players at the start of Martin's tenure. A bit of everything, which helped others a lot. Showed a little by example on the field, but no one was a leader for us off it. No one that stopped there being cliques and nonsense behaviour anyway. He's a player who moved on for a decent sum, and a bigger wage. The SR dream. So, there's no real reason to go back. Not his fault, but I really don't miss the commentator build up, every time he took a free kick, just so it would make the highlights.
  12. Meanwhile, in the Bavarian Alps... "Burgomaster! Burgomaster! Terrible news!" "Speak your mind, Hans." "We took a poll of the locals...and..." "Spit it out, man!" "Well, four days on and we mostly think burning the monster in the windmill was a bad idea" "Oh for...first that Eckhert man, and now this." *Yes, the film version, pedants.
  13. In unrelated news, a giant hound has just claimed it's fourth victim on Dartmoor. Authorities are investigating information that all 4 campers had been invited to the area.
  14. Such sad news. Our thoughts are with his family and friends.
  15. Oops, wrong folder to post pics from...
