Patrick Bateman Posted 3 February, 2015 Posted 3 February, 2015 Bit before his/hers time perhaps. Nah, it's a cover up
Bucks Saint Posted 3 February, 2015 Posted 3 February, 2015 Bucks, I am really sorry for standing you up in Stoke. I offer the following in my defence. I was out on the p!ss with the old man, Stoke is fkn confusing and both our phones had run out of juice, meaning the only way he could contact the wife was by going back to the hotel. I accompanied him on this mission, as is my duty, and all was good. Mate, worry not, it was in jest for sure. On that night I accepted your good reasons fully and could not dispute anything - though it was of course helped by that last minute winner. Look forward to meeting next week!
pap Posted 3 February, 2015 Posted 3 February, 2015 Well I suppose they've got to big something up as their "massive rear" appears to be a concrete making facility, not quite sure where the play areas are either :- Personally, I think the sign painter did a number on them, and chuckled all the way to his next job. Old Farmhouse is a decent balance. Slightly longer walk (15m), but gets you into St Marys Northam-side, so you don't have to go through the bridge crush. We do the return leg, again no bridge to contend with, and avoid the vast majority of the football road traffic simply by hanging around in the pub for 30-60mins after the game.
Bucks Saint Posted 4 February, 2015 Posted 4 February, 2015 What time are we (said in expectation of a crowd...) convening at Ye Old Farmhouse?
Patrick Bateman Posted 4 February, 2015 Posted 4 February, 2015 This is like a time warp. I remember an old Saintslist gathering circa 1998 and then someone organising similar around 2002/3 from here (or previous version). Next, someone will start to build a bloody seating plan so you can all locate each other in the stadium ...
pap Posted 4 February, 2015 Posted 4 February, 2015 What time are we (said in expectation of a crowd...) convening at Ye Old Farmhouse? I normally get there about 90 minutes before the game, get in an hour's drinking, then wend my way down about half hour before the game, which leave 10-15minutes stadium time pre-game.
hutch Posted 4 February, 2015 Posted 4 February, 2015 Well I suppose they've got to big something up as their "massive rear" appears to be a concrete making facility, not quite sure where the play areas are either :- I used to work in a fish n chip shop on that site, c.1970
TwoPints Posted 4 February, 2015 Posted 4 February, 2015 Its a 16th century farmhouse next to a 15th century level crossing. I've been to the farmhouse a few times. Decent pub and they do a good sausage sandwich!
buctootim Posted 4 February, 2015 Posted 4 February, 2015 Decent pub and they do a good sausage sandwich! I'm not sure Lou is bringing a friend.
pap Posted 4 February, 2015 Posted 4 February, 2015 fksake You going to come dressed as a human, Bear? Same question to Tim x

You come out with all this macho crap all the time, but when it comes down to it, you haven't got the balls to join us. I'm a female on my own, meeting a bunch a random blokes, in a pub I've never been to, in Southampton's red light district. Yet you're the chicken. I dare you, have some balls, and join us in the pub!

When you put it like that CL it has a certain Last Exit To Brooklyn appeal. I'll wear a carnation so you know it's me. Just a carnation;)

They used to meet in one of the 'new' trendy bars, was it the toad and something? Used to meet at lunchtime every Friday, get tanked up and go back to work. Met some interesting supporters back then and it was a great laugh. Met before games for a little bit and all met up at the cup final in 2003. Looks like you are all set to do it again and why not, all have something in common.

Coxford_lou Posted 5 February, 2015 Author Posted 5 February, 2015 I bet you DO have balls ... Honey bunchkin, however many balls I have, it's one more than you.
Coxford_lou Posted 5 February, 2015 Author Posted 5 February, 2015 Lou is the fox in the saintsweb henhouse! jonny, you NEED to come join us.

Coxford_lou Posted 5 February, 2015 Author Posted 5 February, 2015 This thread is giving me the horn! Oh. That's not my intention, Deano. Go to bed and sleep it off.
Big Bad Bob Posted 5 February, 2015 Posted 5 February, 2015 I play in my local pool league of a Wednesday evening but I might just sack that off now to be a fly on the wall in the Farmhouse next Wednesday...
Lets B Avenue Posted 5 February, 2015 Posted 5 February, 2015 I play in my local pool league of a Wednesday evening but I might just sack that off now to be a fly on the wall in the Farmhouse next Wednesday... There is a match to go to as well.
Patrick Bateman Posted 5 February, 2015 Posted 5 February, 2015 Honey bunchkin, however many balls I have, it's one more than you. Rule 1, luv.
Big Bad Bob Posted 5 February, 2015 Posted 5 February, 2015 There is a match to go to as well. Yeah but the Farmhouse looks like it'll be way more fun the Wet Spam at home..
Essruu Posted 5 February, 2015 Posted 5 February, 2015 My money is on Essruu. I'm offering 1/3. SB is 2/1 and Bateman is 5/1. Master Bates 25/1. Weston Saint 1000/1 outsider. Not guilty. This has all of the hallmarks of 'Amy' though. Please be careful before you start writing ice cube pōrn, people.
Coxford_lou Posted 5 February, 2015 Author Posted 5 February, 2015 Not guilty. This has all of the hallmarks of 'Amy' though. Please be careful before you start writing ice cube pōrn, people. I probably shouldn't ask, but what is 'Amy'? I sense another insult being thrown my way...
CB Fry Posted 5 February, 2015 Posted 5 February, 2015 I probably shouldn't ask, but what is 'Amy'? I sense another insult being thrown my way... She was one of the good posters who don't post on here any more, and you can see why.
Coxford_lou Posted 5 February, 2015 Author Posted 5 February, 2015 She was one of the good posters who don't post on here any more, and you can see why. Surprisingly, that's not much of a shock.
pap Posted 5 February, 2015 Posted 5 February, 2015 I probably shouldn't ask, but what is 'Amy'? I sense another insult being thrown my way... Amygate is an infamous episode that occurred on SaintsForever, a pre-cursor to this site that formed the immediate nucleus of SaintsWeb after it went tits up. There are tons of people who can give you a better summary than I could, and correct me if I'm wrong, but Amy was a catfish that mugged off the person that ran the site, who apparently went into hiding afterward. As I said, I'm crap on the detail, but it's basically a female (or someone pretending to be one) being a big part in unmaking a forum universe. Correct me if I'm wrong, people
suewhistle Posted 5 February, 2015 Posted 5 February, 2015 ASL? ? Gawd, I remember the 90's and slow modems, and spotty adolescents (I assume) wondering why you got shirty when they popped up on IRC with that question (and nothing else).. Anyways..for what it's worth I shall probably have a pint or two in The Platform, and/or one in The Standing Order on the way there on the basis that saving £1.50ish on a pint is quite attractive at the moment. On the other hand the destination could be The Junction at St. Denys, depending on the consensus of my footie aquaintances. Midweek they'll be no post-match pint for me. Most male Saints fans of my aquaintance are OK, intelligent, and don't get worried that they're never going to get their leg over, but that may be an age related thing. Don't worry Lou.. Pap can be a bit misguided, and I don't think is as fit as Ronaldo but is otherwise sound; Bearsy has a somewhat errant intelligence (judging by his book reviews), and if CBFry frequents pre-match pubs you can kick him in the balls just on principle - but I suspect you won't come across him. Go for it, you've nothing to lose..

Tamesaint Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 Will there be photos taken at this meeting in the Farmhouse?
pap Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 Will there be photos taken at this meeting in the Farmhouse? Probably. The BAP mandate never got any, unfortunately, but this one should.
Goatboy Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 HI GB, I don't understand anything in the above sentence. What I do undestand is you need to join us in Pap's pub. End of. I quite like being groomed.
Marsdinho Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 You're all assuming Lou is a looker, for all we know, she could have the face like a dropped pie. Should be quite the spectacle down the Farmhouse, watching a load of internet warriors compete for the attentions of a lone woman... Someone report back here, cheers
niceandfriendly Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 if anyone wants to cyber, pls send me a PM

Marsdinho Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 Everyone will be gutted that you will not make it Doubt everyone will be there, to be honest.
Griffo Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 Going to drink in the Farmhouse before the game Wednesday now.
Jonnyboy Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 I want a **** up after the game to be fair. Would be highly amusing if a few of the forums mild fueds bubbled over and turned physical.
Jonnyboy Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 if anyone wants to cyber, pls send me a PM I would but you're only registered. Loser.
The Cat Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 I want a **** up after the game to be fair. Would be highly amusing if a few of the forums mild fueds bubbled over and turned physical. Most of the people that argue or wind people up on here don't go to games so sadly that's unlikely.
Coxford_lou Posted 6 February, 2015 Author Posted 6 February, 2015 If people met up, they'd probably get on, then we'd stop calling each other ****s and the forum would be ruined. That's what I'm hoping for!

Coxford_lou Posted 6 February, 2015 Author Posted 6 February, 2015 Going to drink in the Farmhouse before the game Wednesday now. You're a really funny guy, Griffo. Hopefully you'll take that really funny sense of humour of yours to any other pub in Soton.
