TijuanaTim Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 He did a decent piece on his old website about five odd years ago. It was about him and a crew of Saints lads adopting the 'Daggers' for the odd occasion when Saints weren't playing or when the two teams played on a different day. A bunch of them would go watch D&R and have a good day out. We were just coming off a European campaign and an established top flight team, with 30,000 going through the turnstiles. Daggers were part time, non-league, no-hopers barely attracting three figure attendances. Dagenham & Redbrigde are now level on points with Southampton Football Club and we have just been beaten by Rochdale. Some of us must stop burying heads in the sand. Incoming.
Robsk II Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 Sounds like a great day out, with a 'crew' of 'lads' waering 'clobber' from Stone Island. OK then, TT. Oh knowledgable one. Give us your incredible insight. I have no doubt that you will anyway.

Robsk II Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 Granted. Still, I'm just a bit bored of ever ****er here thinking they know the magic solution. If everyone did, all the teams would be on equal points (all draws) and all in the premiership.

Lots of stories, none of which can be repeated here!!

Incoming. i was one of the 'crew'. Good day out when they lost 1-2 at Aldershot new years day 04. Our 'crew' took Aldershot and Woking on the same day. About 300 D&R fans in the away end, good bunch they were too. Like you say, we were top flight and doing well, they were in the conference, 7 years later we are playing them in the league, you couldn't make it up. Edited 4 September, 2010 by Turkish

We always spelt it "krew", not "crew".
TijuanaTim Posted 4 September, 2010 Author Posted 4 September, 2010 Are you sure you were there? We always spelt it "krew", not "crew". Do all of the k-rew still attend and follow Saints? Will there be any divided loyalty when we play our new rivals 'Daggers'?
Turkish Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 That's right mush...can you see the painful irony presently? Sure can mate.
Turkish Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 Are you sure you were there? We always spelt it "krew", not "crew". we were a sophisitcated Crew.

Deppo Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 We cut 'em up. We cut 'em up good. And you'll be next J9 if you ever cross me or Turkish again.
Turkish Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 We cut 'em up. We cut 'em up good. And you'll be next J9 if you ever cross me or Turkish again. We were nicknamed the Dragos by the D&R boys, because we must break them, we ruled.
Deppo Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 We nicknamed the bumboys by some of them though, not sure if you remember why Turkish?
TijuanaTim Posted 4 September, 2010 Author Posted 4 September, 2010 FAF lads...will you go to D&R away to support Saints FFS?
Turkish Posted 4 September, 2010 Posted 4 September, 2010 FAF lads...will you go to D&R away to support Saints FFS? of course mate. No devided loyalties, there is only one SFC.
Essruu Posted 5 September, 2010 Posted 5 September, 2010 Hi Tim, hope you're well. It was something to fill some time and take in some lower league stuff. We are now that lower league stuff :-/ Hopefully it won't be Saints v Aldershot next! Don't forget, Turkish - we took their message board as well and that young D&R piece wanted some ;-) Our SaintsFun St Georges Cross did get some bemused looks on the terrace!

Torres Posted 5 September, 2010 Posted 5 September, 2010 . Some of us must stop burying heads in the sand. Indeed. It can only be you and me who realise we are in League One now, Tim. Come on everyone, wake up and smell the coffee! We aren't in the Prem anymore, dimbos. What is wrong with you all?

Essruu Posted 12 August, 2013 Posted 12 August, 2013 Thanks to webarchive, I found some old SaintsFun pages today, including the pic TijuanaTim spoke of above. Under The Spotlight still makes me chuckle (Manji, St.Keith & St Steve, for anyone who remembers them!) :- http://web.archive.org/web/20060617153703/http://saintsfun.co.uk/spot.htm The one feature that cracks me up is St.Steve's Holiday Snaps. C'mon Steve... I know you're still around... reveal yourself ;-) http://web.archive.org/web/20060617153903/http://saintsfun.co.uk/ststevesnaps.htm If you search around the site, you may even find when stevegrant won our prestigious award :-) This era, folks, is when SaintsForever was decent.

More SaintsFun links please matey - too lazy to do it myself!!
ericofarabia Posted 13 August, 2013 Posted 13 August, 2013 whatever happened to Robsk? After years of tree hugging, finally found his true love and disappeared into the sunset with a Conifer Tree. Fair do's to him, he used to take a lot of flak on here for his sensible tree hugging views, but always bounced back for more!! No infractions or bannage back then. But there again, not so many trolls and wum's either - just loads of good dish it out and take it back banter.
The9 Posted 13 August, 2013 Posted 13 August, 2013 Happy Days indeed. I take it SG's award was the highest accolade any poster could hope to acheive - "Pr!ck on a stick". More SaintsFun links please matey - too lazy to do it myself!! I'd like to see some of the B-anter around the time of the SaintsForever v SaintsFun match, probably about April 2004-ish... that front page pic of Phil the goalie always made me laugh, you bitter bastards.

Rick On A Stick... but unfortunately, the dancing 'stevegrant's head on a stick' graphic hasn't survived http://web.archive.org/web/20050405122710/http://www.saintsfun.co.uk/*****.htm Paul Allen's Celebrity Death List http://web.archive.org/web/20050913053009/http://www.saintsfun.co.uk/pa_dth03.htm
