Fitzhugh Fella Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 Let's hope his groin problems are behind him.
ladysaint Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 Did anyone else notice at Southend that at half time he was warming up by himself whilst the others were doing group work, looked a bit like billy no mates out there.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 Did anyone else notice at Southend that at half time he was warming up by himself whilst the others were doing group work, looked a bit like billy no mates out there. massive ego problems
RonManager Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 Let's hope his groin problems are behind him. Normally they're round the front.
trousers Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 Normally they're round the front. Oh no they're not!
Gingeletiss Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 based on? Th Glasgow_Saint book of trolling!!!
krissyboy31 Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 Did anyone else notice at Southend that at half time he was warming up by himself whilst the others were doing group work, looked a bit like billy no mates out there. Possibly been given his own warm-up routine, while still recuperating from his injury problems.
ladysaint Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 Possibly been given his own warm-up routine, while still recuperating from his injury problems. I am sure that was the case just looked a bit odd.
chocco boxo Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 Player warms up by himself and all of a sudden he has massive ego problems? ;-) Anyway who cares if he does? If he scores the goals and acts as a foil to Lambert who really cares????
krissyboy31 Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 Plays for the Reserves today! http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/page/ReservesNews/0,,10280~1824427,00.html

dubai_phil Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 Let's hope his groin problems are behind him. It would be really bad to ask if you were referring to the player in the thread title or were commenting on more recent sad events in Majorca.. So I won't
Ponty Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 I'm pretty sure that was irony, right there. Jesus, you guys are so used to back-biting and infighting on here that sometimes you forget not every comment is deadly serious. Haven't you heard, it's a whole new era of peace, love and goals from open play?

Jesus, you guys are so used to back-biting and infighting on here that sometimes you forget not every comment is deadly serious. Haven't you heard, it's a whole new era of peace, love and goals from open play? Now that things are improving on the pitch and the owners are united we need to find something to fall out about. I gave some people to much credit (apparently) as assumed a 2 year old could have spotted the irony in my initial post.....lesson learnt.
Windmill Arm 2 Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 jesus - this place is full of thick ****ers I admire your honesty.

Haven't you heard, it's a whole new era of peace, love and goals from open play? World peace and universal love between nations I can get my head around .... :-) But scoring from open play? :-)
The9 Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 Did Connolly specifically mention how impressed he was with everyone spelling his name correctly on SaintsWeb ? Thought not.
Crab Lungs Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 Did Connolly specifically mention how impressed he was with everyone spelling his name correctly on SaintsWeb ? Thought not. Also featured - an interview with Kevin Davis, Kelvin Davies and Paul Wooton.

Haven't you heard, it's a whole new era of peace, love and goals from open play? Ponty - the problem is that the statement is so utterly consistent with his other utterances that you can hardly blame people for assuming him to be serious. Perhaps a winky-eye thing would have given us a clue. ;-)
glkdcdes Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 i think we have maybe 4 posters on here that are pompey fans. I dont want to get into names but i reckon one has posted on this thread today... Dont want to say names because i guess i could be done for slander?

Saint Fan CaM Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 Mmm. Good interview and nice to see he's keen. However, I would like to have read something about his knowledge of Ricky Lambert - whether they are getting on well in training etc.
Professor Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 Interesting that Connolly says that Pardew initially said he just wanted a few days to check him out and then took four or five weeks. Reminiscent of Pardew saying in July that he needed to bring in 'one or two players' and then bringing in 8 or 9. Does Pards always underestimate issues, but does it matter as long as he makes the right judgement in the end? Connolly seems quite content.

Give it to Ron Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 Interesting that Connolly says that Pardew initially said he just wanted a few days to check him out and then took four or five weeks.

Does Pards always underestimate issues, but does it matter as long as he makes the right judgement in the end? Connolly seems quite content. Or the fact that we had a number of players just sat there using up our wages fund? At the fans forum he made it quite clear that we would have to get a few out on loan first.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 I admire your honesty. Are you a Saints fan or a fan of Glasgow_Saint (Moi)? I would suggest the latter (im very flattered) You've used your 3 free posts talking about me today (as you do most days) and have not mentioned Saints or posted anything SFC related for weeks?

Initially, the manager just said he needed a few days but I wanted to make sure and have in been in for four or five weeks. [/Quote] I read that as it was Connolly who decided that he wanted extra time at the club before deciding that Saints were the right club for him.
david in sweden Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 Let's hope his groin problems are behind him. Oooh, that must be some kind of Freudian slip, Duncan ...either that or you're not very good on anatomy !
david in sweden Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 I read that as it was Connolly who decided that he wanted extra time at the club before deciding that Saints were the right club for him. This is surely a slip of the tongue and not so accurate. I've often heard people say .." wait a second.." for something that will take 5 mins. or more..! Perhaps what he means is ; I'll take the time I want before deciding, and a maybe a bit of ..." don't ask me for a quote ..TODAY "

You couldn't be accused of "Slander" as that is a spoken accusation,however you could be done for "Libel" as that is the written one
SamKimish Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 Next week Simon Gillet, Matt Patterson and Jake Thompson Followed by an in-depth interview with Morgan Shnida... Spiderman For the record, I do know that his name is Morgan Schneiderlin
dubai_phil Posted 13 October, 2009 Posted 13 October, 2009 I read that as it was Connolly who decided that he wanted extra time at the club before deciding that Saints were the right club for him. Or Read that as saying Connolly hoped that a PL team or at worst a CCC team would come in for him and offer him a contract... Who cares, he's here for the rest of the season and motivated to do well for us... Crikey a PL quality player joins us in L1..... Hope he's better than our PL quality players we had in the CCC, great job they all did Politics not withstanding of course

Does Pards always underestimate issues, but does it matter as long as he makes the right judgement in the end? Connolly seems quite content. Or perhaps, like any sane person studying Saints at the start of the season, Pardew realised that the damage done by the previous regime was so bad that we would most certainly have relegated with Lowe's legacy players and therefore briefed the new owners and bought more in? I see little underestimation from Pardew, merely diplomacy. I also see careful consideration and good opportunist buying as well as clearing out the younger failures. Gets my vote.
MongoNeil Posted 14 October, 2009 Posted 14 October, 2009 Please f*** off you clueless miserable c***. :smt100:smt100 funniest overreaction of the year?
Crab Lungs Posted 14 October, 2009 Posted 14 October, 2009 Next week Simon Gillet, Matt Patterson and Jake Thompson Lolz.... Gotta be some more we've seen over the past few years....
Tommy Mulgrew Posted 14 October, 2009 Posted 14 October, 2009 Sorry folks, I've been away for a while so forgive me if this has been done to death on here and point me to where I can find the info: Saga has not played more than a few minutes as a sub for a long time and now we have Connelly; why are we not using our Polish international? Thanks. Tommy Mulgrew
madruss Posted 14 October, 2009 Posted 14 October, 2009 Sorry folks, I've been away for a while so forgive me if this has been done to death on here and point me to where I can find the info: Saga has not played more than a few minutes as a sub for a long time and now we have Connelly; why are we not using our Polish international? Thanks. Tommy Mulgrew Our Polish international is a bit overweight and has been playing shi*e when he has come on. It's no surprise no-one wanted to buy him during the transfer window
hypochondriac Posted 14 October, 2009 Posted 14 October, 2009 Because saga has the talent but clearly can't be bothered anymore.
The Godfather Posted 14 October, 2009 Posted 14 October, 2009 Saga doesn't want to be here. When has played this season he tries hard but you can tell he'd rather be somewhere else.

Hope he's better than our PL quality players we had in the CCC, great job they all did Politics not withstanding of course I think ye misunderstand me, I think it is a really good thing that Connolly may have taken his time before deciding to commit to saints, from the little time I have followed connelly (mainly due to his Irish eligibility) I have thought he is a committed player who is capable of earning his place in many PL or CCC squads. But he has a good attitude and took his time in making his decision. I read it as he chose Saints as he seen us as a club that were moving forward. I would love to see DC end his playing career with Saints and earn his coaching badges with us.
Cricketphilly Posted 15 October, 2009 Posted 15 October, 2009 Let's hope his groin problems are behind him. Eh?
