Colinjb Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Tell me is this the same sharp who:- Took the French Imperial Eagle, at Talavera ? Killed three French draggons in the saddle and saved Wellingtons life ? Successfully assaulting the central breach at Badajoz ? Took command of a regiment driving off the advance of the French Imperial Guard at the Battle of Waterloo? No, but I saw a documentary about him scoring for Sheffield United against Manchester United in a cup tie. He had to go through a rather tacked on romantic sub plot and tragic family loss beforehand though.
Gordon Mockles Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 One further thought, it's a damn shame we don't have the allowance of 7 subs anymore. Depending on tactics & who's already on the field, we could have any of Puncheon, De Ridder, Sharp, Lee, Barnard, Connolly, Chaplow, Cork, Lallana or Falque from that list on the bench. Not a bad selection headache. Damn shame we only have 5, not 7, options. That's fire power!! Now just to band aid that defensive frailty.
Viking Warrior Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 I forgot we also signed lee as well . And we have some great youngster coming through . It's good to be a saints fan unless your
Secret Site Agent Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 As he's originally from Sheffield, I think it must be. Can we then call the midfield 'His Chosen Men' Start calling Connely 'Harper' And sing 'Over the hills.......' When he scores. 'Over the hills and far away Through Fratton, Upton and Ashusrt Gate, Nigel Command and we obey, Rickie and Billy scoring again' I'm steaming but having fun.
John Cool Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Great signing, I think I feel some ZZ Top coming on.... Striped shirt, new boots He scores a go-al whenever he shoo-oots Red socks, black shorts He's a guy who knows his spor-or-orts Defenders runnin' just as fast they can 'Cause every fan's crazy 'bout the Sharp best man.

'Over the hills and far away Through Fratton, Upton and Ashusrt Gate, Nigel Command and we obey, Rickie and Billy scoring again' I'm steaming but having fun. Sounds like Tenpole Tudor, although its probably a bit deeper than that. Sorry you've lost me - you're obviously a Sharp enthusiast, I'm only an occasional viewer.But think I get your drift on it. Like the "I'm steaming but having fun" . Is that part of the song ?
St Marco Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 "He's Sharp, he's Sharp, he will tear your defence apart"
Colinjb Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 'Over the hills and far away Through Fratton, Upton and Ashusrt Gate, Nigel Command and we obey, Rickie and Billy scoring again' I'll stick to the Nightwish cover version, cheers.

That was my first thought as well. ffs, what a bunch of proles we are Great signing btw, cant wait to see tomorrows line-up!!!!
Crouchie Crouchie Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 "Sharp will tear you apart... again"
Badger Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 That was my first thought as well. ffs, what a bunch of proles we are Great signing btw, cant wait to see tomorrows line-up!!!! No, its just an age thing.

Without sounding presumptious, of course it remains seven subs in the premier league... #chickencounting (as I think the kids do!)
St Marco Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 "Sharp will tear you apart... again" It could work (obviously to sound of Love will tear us apart) "And Sharp Sharp will tear them apart.....again!" Rinse and repeat. Whatever song is chosen I just hope it isn't some boring **** like we have for De Ridder, Lallana and now Lee. Need to be more creative!

The song is from the TV series. And I'm a big Sharpie enthusiast. And I really am steaming, and I am having fun. Just wanted you all to know. Been drinking Woo Woos in the local pub with an Italian man with a stutter, so had to be drunk to understand him.
miss_biscuits Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Apparently billy sharp on talksport shortly
Avenue Saint Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 one of the most enjoyable nights on saintweb for a while. so much positivity and all the doom and gloom merchants either gagged or gone for a hike. nice.
hypochondriac Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 one of the most enjoyable nights on saintweb for a while. so much positivity and all the doom and gloom merchants either gagged or gone for a hike. nice. Presumably you don't mean me. For future discussions when people moan at me for being negative, note my highly positive reaction to this news- something that I have wanted for a while.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Hypo just sent me a PM....... Says the Sharp is **** and he is gutted that he signed! Did anyone else get the PM? What should i do?
hypochondriac Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Hypo just sent me a PM....... Says the Sharp is **** and he is gutted that he signed! Did anyone else get the PM? What should i do? Quiet original Bournemouth Saint. I've got your number
Avenue Saint Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 hypo just sent me a pm....... Says the sharp is **** and he is gutted that he signed! Did anyone else get the pm? What should i do? lol
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 He is number 11 because '1' is a very sharp number. Just like Hooper is 88 because '8' is a very hoopy number. FACT.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Quiet original Bournemouth Saint. I've got your number How do you know my real name?

Really? I honestly didn't realise that which makes it even more ridiculous there is no consistency in the leagues & we are limited to 5. Ridonkulous!!
latter day saint Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Really? I honestly didn't realise that which makes it even more ridiculous there is no consistency in the leagues & we are limited to 5. Ridonkulous!! Ridonkulous ? is that similar to ridiculous but at a higher level ?
locksheathsaint101 Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Sharp interview on talksport soon incase anyone is interested...
Glasgow_Saint Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Someone (not me) should record it and post it
trousers Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Sharp wasn't in IKEA yesterday.....came down today....
S-Clarke Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Sounds like he turned down Leicester in hope we'd come in for him.
saintroyt Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 ao the so called football experts that state we have no money,sellijng the club,cannt attract palyers,adkins doesnt know what he doing, no finance. Just gracefully f off and wind up other supporters from another club,petty minded ******s who should play with themselves and not ask other people to indugle in there junivenile word games,as they no jack s hit so if they are so clever way dont they buy the club?? they havnt got the money or balls so get back to the play station RANT OVER
trousers Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Chose Southampton over Leicester because Southampton are near the top ("Massive club")....and mainly because of Adkins....can't play tomorrow
hypochondriac Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Sharp can't play tomorrow. On Talksport
CanadaSaint Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 I think it's extremely insensitive for us to be bouncing up and down with joy over Billy Sharp while our brothers and sisters down the road are facing extinction. The least we can do is a moment of silence. Okay, carry on.
trousers Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Sharp can't play tomorrow. On Talksport That could work to our advantage as the other strikers will be itching to prove a point to Adkins
St Chalet Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Billy Sharp quotes from Talksport - Long Day - Call this morning, talked to them, drove down, did medical - Transfer going on since Summer - Happy he has made right decision - This is stage in my career to join Southampton - Leicester had fee accepted, heart said Southampton - Became a better player under Adkins, Saints a massive club - Not available tomorrow as deal signed after noon - Prepared for Saturday - Looking forward to playing with Lambert [assumed he has not heard that RL is off to WHU] - Fresh start, get football right and others will get property sorted for him
stockportsaint Posted 30 January, 2012 Posted 30 January, 2012 Great photo. I've needed a new photo for my iPhone lock screen since we've dropped off the top of the table.
