Golac's Cunning Stunts

sorry, perhaps its just my impression that you are a ****

I'm happy to wait, but don't pretend that you know ****, because you don't. We'll see who AP buys, but don't pretend that you know what he has in mind.

Yes but so what? He's hardly Defoe quality...

"I would also like to commend Southampton for the 660 fans they brought up this evening. Well done to them." http://www.hartlepool.vitalfootball.co.uk/matchrep.asp?a=178656

Don't think the guy who wrote this post is too keen on our Olly http://thefishy.co.uk/cgi-bin/forum/Blah.pl?m-1257631840/s-new/

At least they spelt Connolly correctly which is more than most people on here can do.

Have to say that the icon by the side of the post looks more like a set of male genitals than a thumbs down.

DMG would be tasty in the 3rd division. Perhaps our new management will be able to persuade him of our newly found ambition. And perhaps the chance to work with mlt vs Billy davies might persuade him too.

Oh come on, we're not that bad

I was born and bred in Beastleigh and made it my number 1 priority to get out as soon as I turned 18.

Tony How refreshing to read a message like that after years of being considered "peasants". You will have my full support. Thank you so much for all your hard work. Up The Saints.

You were in bed with him at the time?

Honestly, if I came over as defensive, that's not the case. Just fed up reading your ITK ramblings. I'll put you on ignore so we can both have a happy day.

It's life. Get over it. Whenever I'm faced with decisions, there's almost always a difficult choice to make. More than one option. The important thing is to make the decision and then move on. Not to sit there moaning that there was another way and that you've potentially lost out by not choosing it.

Mate I'm not on a high horse. It's you. Finding it hard to make any sense out of this rambling. It's very much a post in the stylee of Wacko Jacko.

Do you really think that a group with billions would allow themselves to lose out on an opportunity because somebody else put in a "slightly higher" bid than them? If that's the case, then it would suggest that they weren't that fussed and we'd be better off with Pinnacle.

You really should wait until you have proper facts before you go criticising again. How do you know what was being offered by the "10 billion investor"? Were you present during the negotiations?

I don't doubt your sincerity, but for all you say about only being interested in having a football team to support next year, your ego is coming over loud and clear too.

Oh when the new world is revealed When the new world is revealed Oh how I want to be there on that morning When the new world is revealed

Tim How nice it is to read something as heartfelt and honest as this compared to the usual drivel served up by the many smart arses on here. I started watching Saints a few years later than you, but not that much. First match was home vs Cardiff in the season prior to promotion. From that one match I was hooked even though I was scared to death of all the grown up blokes who swore and smoked roll ups. For many years later whenever I smelt tobacco smoke, I associated it with watching Saints on the terraces. So, little did I know, this was to be the golden era. So many great players, so many triumphs against so called bigger teams. I used to go with my Dad and Uncle who are both long gone now. But I shed a tear for both of them when we got to the cup final again. I think moments like that are what seperates true fans of clubs from the plastic Mancs and Scousers. A football club handed down through the generations. Anyway, I left Southampton in 1984 and never went back there to live. I still follow them with a passion and still get to see them a fair bit. Alas, my son has broken the line, but in recent times, perhaps I can't blame him for that. I too lost a very dear relative to a devasting illness only a few months ago. A young lady cut down in her prime. It does serve some perspective on some of the hystrionics served up on here. My take on it is that we only have one life and we should try to be as happy as we can be. I count watching and following Saints through good and bad as an intrinsic part of my happiness for, oh so many reasons. Today's news has brightened my day. Here's hoping for another day, sun shining, 11 men running out of the tunnel in red and white...

Tabor is a dollar billionaire I believe. I would very much welcome him! Was it DaintyDave going on about a SA connection earlier today? Gold and Tans or something? Not quite sure if that tallys.

Only by one or two ITKs. Most fans will obviously be more than grateful and won't need your advice on such matters.

From reading that article, it sounds like somebody called him up on his phone. Yes, those things are quite fast.

When all this is over, for good or bad, I'm gonna write a book about it. You couldn't make it up. Bazza the Briefcase, Paul Allen, Jackson, St David, Kelso Kev(in) Keegan, Tommac, the tranny named after the Beach Boys song (was that Tommac?), tracking mysterious yachts across the ocean, sheiks who end up being women, Rupert the Duck Hunter and on and on. I swear nobody would believe it. It's like the plot of the Da Vinci Code. I really do hope the book will have a happy ending though.
