How did you get the time to write all this? No time to read it 'though so completely wasted on me and many more I should imagine. This is 2011, more than 3 lines and no bugger will read it especially on here. Succinct is the word you're looking for.

Surely you have more ambition for your child than encourage him to be a football and Saints fan. Teach him/her the piano or drive racing cars but not bloody football. Why condemn the poor little mite to a life of abject disappointment and misery. Nice one, anyway. Keep her/him close always - it's all that matters at the end believe you me.

Well, that resolution didn't last long. And here's we all thinking yu'd gone fer gud. How often is "now and again" - best surely to part once and quickly?

Look Andy, rest assured EVERY kid in Europe who can kick a ball who is over the age of 4 has been scouted and re-scouted, trialed and re-trialed. Your mate would not have been missed, just tell him he's no good and put him out of his flippin' misery. The big scouts scene of Europe would have found the last drop of juice in every lemon.

It is wisest not to jump to erroneous conclusions from careless speculation. Few people will know the facts including the police and those involved that do can be relied upon absolutely to distort or obscure the truth. I abhor the 'night-club' culture that appears to be endemic at Saints which has now led to very serious incidents involving two of our key players, young guys with lots of cash and obvious glamour appeal to a certain type of lady (gold diggers, perhaps); inevitably their presence at any open social meeting palce will attract attention and jealousy probably in equal measure. Just add in the lethal influence of alcohol and you don't need to be a brain surgeon to see where that can lead. I just wish that our players would have the good sense to stay away. It's all very well having a matey club atmosphere "with smiles on everyone's faces" but not at the expense of setting standards for expected behaviour and basic discipline because everyone is on first name terms - players and management alike - so nobody in authority has the balls to be authoritative. Somebody up at SMS needs to get a grip fast. If Adders can't face it then Cortese needs to step in. These guys are being paid a fortune to play football an be our role models - enough said! Brian Clough would have had none of it and the riot act would have been read by him long, long ago. This is a tragedy for Dan Seaborne and his whole family and my heartfelt sympathies go out to him and them. We must all pray for his complete recovery.

At least it's only a loan... am 'guessen he'll come off the bench for ten minutes on a couple of occasions and then vanish without trace back to Glasgow or Stockholm. Cheer up lads, we've still got Jaidi to come back.

Let's face it no bugger wants to come here. Premier League? You're having a laugh! NC just doesn't fancy it this year.

The Bubble Had To Burst At Some Point... Discus!?!
Charlie Wayman replied to dannysfc's topic in The Saints
I hope this was 'tongue-in-cheek!' If not we should start worrying as the performance against Millwall was **** poor after the 20 min mark -
The Bubble Had To Burst At Some Point... Discus!?!
Charlie Wayman replied to dannysfc's topic in The Saints
Obviously! We won't win anything with third division players. Trick now is to get the lads motivated again, their morale will have taken a pounding and one can fear a downward spirral. Lose tonight and the next home game and suddenly it will look like a much steeper hill to climb just to stay in mid-table and... the window will be firmly shut! -
No way! Why Le Tissier? If the club took your suggestion seriously we'd have bronzes of every 'worthy' lining Britannia Road from one end of the street to t'other! Daft idea IMO.
-
Guess no of us thought of that... LOL
-
Any suicides reported over the weekend? Is there still "Only one Nigel Adkins"? Let's hope the lads can brush this aside and get on with the winning process. Not good reading to have the Gay Town Boys above us and bragging once again.
-
What the F are you on about? If you think such drivel adds to your street cred it tells us all we know about your leanings and your judgement.
-
A tough game for us; Nigel is unusually and worryingly cautious meaning that he doesn't expects to win, hence the rhetoric about "whatever the result" "we carry on from there" etc. One hopes we can get at least a draw because to lose now after 10 or so consecutive wins would be a real body blow to our younger lads as at the moment they are probably beginning to feel invincible. A defeat could hammer their pride and belief and could lead to a loss of confidence resulting in a losing streak. If we lose our current momentum it might be a while before it can be picked up again. It is true that Leicester are off to a slow start and we know only too well how long it takes to make a solid fully functioning unit from a group of disparate players assembled quickly, so obviously our best chance is to get straight onto our pass and move game and dominate them from he off. We must not get bogged down in a physical long-ball kick-about as we did last Saturday when team skills are quickly negated but we must also recognise that this might be exactly the game that best suits Leicester at the moment. This is one I'll watch from behind the sofa. I fear our 100% record will go and best hope we can get a 0-0 or 1-1.
-
We are and so are Arsenal, let's hope they don't come after Jose!
-
Don't hold your breath especially as Cortese probably has not factored in automatic promotion for this season. We know he has a five year plan and wouldn't fancy Year 4 being relegation from the PL. Expect that this season he will be happy enough with consolidation despite our record start with a BIG push next season. No way this team would survive up top and Mr Cortese knows it. Nor are we Man City, so don't expect him to buy the NPC or PL titles.

Liam Fontaine - Update: Deal falls through
Charlie Wayman replied to St.Patrik's topic in The Saints
Thank goodness for that, after Dale Stephens (who?), Danny N'Guessan (who?), Jonathan Forte (who?) I'm not sure we are ready for another quality signing from our current scouting team what's that you say,wha about DeRidder (who?... OK, OK, but give it time!) -
Liam Fontaine - Update: Deal falls through
Charlie Wayman replied to St.Patrik's topic in The Saints
This is a very special day indeed as everyone is just talking ******** all day long. Face up chaps, the window is closing fast and nobody else is coming here - at least nobody you've ever heard of. -
I think this also is ********, in fact it is ********!
-
I also think it's ********

Why do we bother? Even if Saints were top of the PL, BBC would still relegate us to the round-up slot and give us 35 secs maximum coverage. Some people there who clearly don't like us and never will. Just wait 'til we slip a bit, THEN we'll get coverage by the hour!!!!
-
It's way too soon to start believing such propaganda. As we saw yesterday, our players are struggling to stay the pace already - maybe we over train - whatever, the lads need to be super fit to keep playing the run and pass game at the high tempo that Adkins insist upon and that may not be physically possible. It was noticeable that Millwall kept going despite the heat with their more 'pedestrian' approach to the game. The lesson is obvious, if you want to stay energetic "KEEP THE BLOODY FOOTBALL'. Spending 70% of the game chasing after shadows will not win us anything. So, lessons to others? 'Yes' as long as we can deliver what our spasmodic excellence promises but 'no' if we fold easily as we did yesterday.

Saints V Millwall 1- 0 Post match chat!
Charlie Wayman replied to SOTONS EAST SIDE's topic in The Saints
That, my friends was a close call, far too close for comfort. I'm not sure we deserved to win but we did. Just hope the lads can recover in time for Saturday as we'll need to be at our best to even get a sniff at that lot -
Gooners will have to pay at least £15m now!

The defenders on the bus point the finger and go "you, you, you!" All day long
