It's not terrible but I don't think it's good enough considering what the rest of the team looks like.
-
If Andrew Davies and Svennson are injured at the same time we are stuffed. Would have lost by several yesterday without Killer having a great game (and Kelvin.)

Free bus from the Walkabout to the away end turnstile, accompanied by meat wagon ensuring we ran all the red lights. Thanks very much Glamorgan OB... stopped us getting soaked again as we were just drying off and meant we didn't have to walk the streets with our complex-bearing little friends form the Principality. This should be done at more matches IMO!

Comparing them with Bale is probably a bit unrealistic as if any of them turn out to be 80% as good as Bale they will be very good players indeed. Whilst we were very good in the first 25 minutes, we were by far the lesser team in the second half and without KD having a great game and killer returning we would have lost by 2 or 3. I fear we have been unfortunate with the fixtures this year. 3 hard games first up isn't ideal with such a young team. That said, they showed enough in the first 30 minutes to make me think we can stay up.

I can't help feeling his name was supposed to be something else but his parent misspelt it.

Sometimes I wish I was an NFL fan. All very simple over there... If things aren't working out you just sod off somewhere else!

Quite.... but, perversely, to refuse a financially benficial takeover becasue they wanted to install their own people could turn out to be the short-termest view, despite the attractive football ethos currently offered.

Are you allowed karaoke in Sharjah? Isn't it apostacy?

I will make an extra special effort to play "hide the sausage" with some Welsh bint on Saturday night.

Good. Some people on here seem to think that we're better off sticking with Double Dutch Youth Experiment rather than getting taken over on the grounds that Alan Shearer isn't experienced and we had a reasonably good performance against West Ham.
-
Anyone who thinks closing the corners, stopping some bus tickets and letting a few players go has meant we don't still need investment is missing the point and putting sentimentality ahead of the facts.... ...the fact is that we will still make a massive loss unless we sell millions of pounds worth of players each year. One year (maybe this one?) we will have no one to sell who is worth much. We will then be STUFFED. It would be nice to see a team of local lads giving 110% "for the badge", with a progressive set-up untarnished by the greed, caprice and lack of integrity that characterises modern football and succeeding.... but let's face it, that's a 1 in a 1,000 shot and the pro game is probably beyond that. If you want that, go and watch your local non-league team. We are financially buuggered. Any takeover that injects significant equity or refinances debt on favourable terms cannot be overlooked, no matter how likeable and honest JP seems.

Kelvin Davis to be sold with Rasiak, Saga and Skacel
benjii replied to Matthew Le God's topic in The Saints
If Davis wasn't for sale we wouldn't have signed Forecast. Not really a shock. Possibly not the best plan to announce it publicly but I suppose everyone knows we're skint anyway... -
I accepted someone to see what happens.... nothing yet.... will keep everyone posted.

Website a fake IMO but Companies House don't lie!

Is anyone taking one of those smoke bomb things this year? Really up for this match. Think we might lose and think it will probably **** down with rain but should be a good day anyway!

They may have passed a judgment in a specific case or two saying that a given agreement was invalid or unenforceable. For obvious public policy reasons, which you yourself earlier alluded to, they are quite clearly not going to deliver a judgment which states that all standard form loans created before April 2007 are void or unenforceable, if there are a significant amount of such loans such as would cause a complete **** up in the banking system (which one would expect there are). By all means, take your bank to court if you think it's a good idea though! Sounds to me like someone's thinking of launching a cheap, nasty, opportunistic legal product; that's all. -

Clearly no court is going to pass a judgment which renders the majority of existing personal debt agreements unenforceable or void. -
Suddenly our OS looks like Private Eye. Had a look at the West Ham one after Friday's game and that was a load of bull too.
