bowers-sfc Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 After we scored the 3rd goal, he was on his knees with his head in hands!! showed great passion today. Was good to see him just show how much it meant to him, like celebrating on his own.
benjii Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 Yeah, if we can get promoted I think he will be here for a long time. In Lallana, Fonte, Chambo etc we could finally be breeding some players who will have a long term affiliation like Matty and Doddsy did. Feels like we could be on the brink of developing a real team character and spirit again after years of constant change since WGS left.

corky morris Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 Or he is thinking - thank f u c k for that I dont want another season in this league!!!!!!!!!!!

sperm_john Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 to be honest i thought fonte was man of the match yesterday, did so much clearing up for butterfield when he kept on getting skinned
Julian H. Cope Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 to be honest i thought fonte was man of the match yesterday, did so much clearing up for butterfield when he kept on getting skinned Tbf to Butterfield he didn't get much help from the midfield. I thought he had a decent game before the substitution.
LGTL Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 Butterfield was decent yesterday but he was totally ball watching for their 2nd goal.
OldNick Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 some cracking pictures. i particularily like the one behind the goal as the keeper watches the ball going in
sad saints fan Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 I like the one with Jaidi heading the ball and only the whites of his eyes showing, he looks like a zombie.
simo Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 Don't suppose any of you fine people could put the pics up on here they don't work on the mobile internet site ?
sad saints fan Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 Don't suppose any of you fine people could put the pics up on here they don't work on the mobile internet site ? I wouldnt have a clue how to ,sorry mate.
Jesus Reigned Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 Butterfield was decent yesterday but he was totally ball watching for their 2nd goal. I don't think he was so much ball watching, but he virtually invited the lad to shoot as he showed him far too much of the goal. That said, it did take a slight deflection and Davies should still have saved it at his near post.
saintscottofthenortham Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 Fonte is my top player by a mile. As much as I love Lallana he has games where he gets a bit lost, where as Fonte just takes the f*****g **** every single time he plays. He was a stand out defender in the championship, i'm still amazed to this day that we managed to sign him.
Saint_Mabes Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 Fonte, jaidi and lallana stand out players yeasterday for me!
jam Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 (edited) Yeah, if we can get promoted I think he will be here for a long time. In Lallana, Fonte, Chambo etc we could finally be breeding some players who will have a long term affiliation like Matty and Doddsy did. Feels like we could be on the brink of developing a real team character and spirit again after years of constant change since WGS left. I wasn't a Pardew fan but think he really did well for us in terms of the players he brought in. Fonte, Lambert, Jaidi, Hammond, Harding and Butterfield have all been good on the pitch as player but also seem to have excellent attitudes as honest professionals. It's really easy to support this team at the moment. Edited 3 April, 2011 by jam Phone trouble - posted too soon
hypochondriac Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 Whatever you thought of Pardew, he was top notch at getting decent players in. Fonte is my favourite player. If we fail to get promoted the saddest thing for me will be losing a player of his obvious class.
jam Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 Butterfield was decent yesterday but he was totally ball watching for their 2nd goal. He was very good in the first half. Made a couple of fantastic tackles.

If we fail to get promoted the saddest thing for me will be losing a player of his obvious class. It used to make me chuckle when people on here were speculating that we'd be getting Coppell in as DoF. Surely the wrong way round...
sadoldgit Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 Or he is thinking - thank f u c k for that I dont want another season in this league!!!!!!!!!!! Or he could be thinking thank f * c k I don't have to worry about the manager jumping my wife anymore?
SFC Forever Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 The whole team seems together which is great for team spirit. That picture simply shows that we are a unit that is enjoying the winning feeling to me.
hypochondriac Posted 3 April, 2011 Posted 3 April, 2011 Or he could be thinking thank f * c k I don't have to worry about the manager jumping my wife anymore? That never happened.
Deanovski Posted 4 April, 2011 Posted 4 April, 2011 wtf http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/javaImages/5a/bc/0,,10280~9550938,00.jpg
LVSaint Posted 4 April, 2011 Posted 4 April, 2011 wtf http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/javaImages/5a/bc/0,,10280~9550938,00.jpg A good job the MK player had his backed turned otherwise he might have **** himself. I ****ing love Fonte too. We must not fail to get promoted this season, we will be looking at quite an exodus of players in the summer.
SaintRichmond Posted 4 April, 2011 Posted 4 April, 2011 Tbf to Butterfield he didn't get much help from the midfield. I thought he had a decent game before the substitution. You mean apart from getting skinned for the umpteenth time and allowing the shot for the second goal ?? ...... Which, at his NEAR post, Davis should have had covered
SaintRichmond Posted 4 April, 2011 Posted 4 April, 2011 I don't think he was so much ball watching, but he virtually invited the lad to shoot as he showed him far too much of the goal. That said, it did take a slight deflection and Davies should still have saved it at his near post. I was right behind the line of the shot, and IMHO, the "deflection" was very slight. It simply allowed Adkins to "deflect" away from the fact that it was rank bad keeping to let one in at the near post
Julian H. Cope Posted 4 April, 2011 Posted 4 April, 2011 You mean apart from getting skinned for the umpteenth time and allowing the shot for the second goal ?? ...... Which, at his NEAR post, Davis should have had covered Still think he had a good game. Opinions are like..................
natty_noodles Posted 4 April, 2011 Posted 4 April, 2011 Fonte has just moved in my complex of flats - had a chat with him on Saturday and he said he has bought his place and loves it... fingers crossed that's a good sign?! Nice guy too
Saint_clark Posted 4 April, 2011 Posted 4 April, 2011 He punched the air when Barnard made that amazing run and got a freekick down by the corner flag as well. What a guy, what a player.
rolosfc Posted 4 April, 2011 Posted 4 April, 2011 If you look at the gallery on the OS Lambert shows similar passion ! I saw this earlier and was very impressed with the passion! Shows that the players really care about the club which makes a change!
Dig Dig Posted 4 April, 2011 Posted 4 April, 2011 I saw this earlier and was very impressed with the passion! Shows that the players really care about the club which makes a change! This has been a real plus this season. I think it started to come together last season but the belief and willingness to fight for the cause this season has been brilliant. It's imperative that we go up this season so we can keep thr nucleous of this squad together.
NickG Posted 4 April, 2011 Posted 4 April, 2011 Think Adkins has really built a team spirit. You see subs celebrating goals more etc
hamster Posted 4 April, 2011 Posted 4 April, 2011 If we can keep this squad together then IMHO we will definitely win this league next year.
Armitage Shanks Posted 6 April, 2011 Posted 6 April, 2011 Barnard always looks passionate when he scores too. That's because if we get promoted, with his promotion bonus he can afford to ensure that he gets a cell to himself
Crab Lungs Posted 6 April, 2011 Posted 6 April, 2011 Think Adkins has really built a team spirit. You see subs celebrating goals more etc I think you could be right... especially after hearing Dickson's post-match interview last night as well...
SaintIT Posted 6 April, 2011 Posted 6 April, 2011 Fonte is my top player by a mile. As much as I love Lallana he has games where he gets a bit lost, where as Fonte just takes the f*****g **** every single time he plays. He was a stand out defender in the championship, i'm still amazed to this day that we managed to sign him. Spot on. He is pure class.
lethallee Posted 6 April, 2011 Posted 6 April, 2011 I think you could be right... especially after hearing Dickson's post-match interview last night as well... A club official was probably pressing a gun into Dickson's back during interview !!
Dalek2003 Posted 6 April, 2011 Posted 6 April, 2011 We have not had such a positive spirti since the days of Hoddle and WGS.
Thedelldays Posted 6 April, 2011 Posted 6 April, 2011 I saw Jose Fonte today....he was in the car in front coming out of Ikea...A nice sporty Merc with a number plate that makes it clear it is him...i over took him to find out..and it was him. in true SWF/saints fan fashion, I got my chance to boo him for any furture poor performance he may put in...the **** (the last line is a lie)
sadoldgit Posted 6 April, 2011 Posted 6 April, 2011 Think Adkins has really built a team spirit. You see subs celebrating goals more etc The subs celebrating? Anything to do with Delldays?
Pugwash Posted 6 April, 2011 Posted 6 April, 2011 Nige does not refer to them as 'subs' or 'substitutes'. When the team is announced, they're called 'Impact Players'. HTH
