CB Fry Posted 10 February, 2015 Posted 10 February, 2015 dubai consortium or something. SaintsFC UK rings a bell, with david beckham getting involved That was it. Lol.
Crazy Diamond Posted 10 February, 2015 Posted 10 February, 2015 Who was it? I can't quite remember, Mark Fotheringham maybe? He turned down an offer from us. Licka may have played the same game but I don't think it was him. You work in PR dont you? When did you leave? We're you the loser in the power struggle with Jordan Sibley for the Cortese lap dog post? Ha. Back then things were very different... Have to say my personal favourite golden era was Help me Rhondda/LifeLongSaint/Barry the Briefcase (someone please put the photo up) and Saintlee's ITK takeover epic fail. I got invited to one of (possibly the first) meetings that Saintlee organised for that, but couldn't go. I can't actually remember who Lee's contact actually was - was it our favourite photocopier salesman? Or someone else? Oh him! He turned up at Bournemouth when they were well and truly in the mire. Funnily enough, I went on to work for them as well that same season! Mark someone?
hypochondriac Posted 10 February, 2015 Posted 10 February, 2015 dubai consortium or something. SaintsFC UK rings a bell, with david beckham getting involved That was Saint David. I spoke to him on the phone whilst he spouted that nonsense. Said there was going to be a saints fc in every country!
Crazy Diamond Posted 10 February, 2015 Posted 10 February, 2015 The photocopier salesman was... Marc Jackson.
Turkish Posted 10 February, 2015 Posted 10 February, 2015 The photocopier salesman was... Marc Jackson. I remember Marc Jackson denying he was a photocopier salesman. Yet Turkish can reveal that my first every sales job was for an office equipment company and one of the photocopier salesmen driving round in his company cavalier was a certain Marc Jackson.

Small world Mr. Turkish, small world.

I met him once, in about 2006, in what was the pub at the end of Town Quay - he gave me a lift to the Zeb bar after. He was there with Peter Reid's brother or something, all really weird.
holepuncture Posted 11 February, 2015 Posted 11 February, 2015 I look forward to seeing you all at the Farmhouse prior to the game this evening. To make things interesting, Im going to select a SWF poster and pretend I am them.
Deano6 Posted 11 February, 2015 Posted 11 February, 2015 'Grabbing' a drink and 'cripes'... You sure you live in Leyton? You sound like a Yank. I live in Yankeeland and nobody would ever think of saying "Cripes". It's a most British of phrase. Even the Daily Mail agrees with me... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2053670/Cripes-Traditional-British-words-face-extinction-text-speak-norm.html You do realise America is a real place and not just a repository for your pet peeves?

Big Bad Bob Posted 11 February, 2015 Posted 11 February, 2015 I look forward to seeing you all at the Farmhouse prior to the game this evening.

holepuncture Posted 11 February, 2015 Posted 11 February, 2015 Look forward to meeting you. Can you pretend you're Turkish? I'm not old or bald enough to do a Turkish, let alone my total lack of pedigree in selling stationary. In the style of the Donkey at the end of the first Shrek film 'Pick me, Pick me'... It will be damaging to your 'rep' - be warned.

Crazy Diamond Posted 11 February, 2015 Posted 11 February, 2015 I'm afraid I can't make it tonight as I'm having to catch a different train to Southampton - someone can pretend to be me if they want. Hope you all have fun with PC Lou.

KelvinsRightGlove Posted 11 February, 2015 Posted 11 February, 2015 Bugger. I was going to go and pretend to be you. You can pretend to be me, if you like? The leap from this: to this: Isn't so big.
Patrick Bateman Posted 11 February, 2015 Posted 11 February, 2015 I'll wait with baited breath to hear reports from those that went to confirm that Coxford_Lou is 6'4 and 25 stone. And uses a urinal ... for its intended purpose.

hutch Posted 11 February, 2015 Posted 11 February, 2015 I have no rep to damage to be fair. I must be the only male member of TMS that has upset Lou! I think I've also experienced the rough end of her tongue.
Goatboy Posted 11 February, 2015 Posted 11 February, 2015 I'm not going to make it. Mrs Goat is late home. Straight to the game for me.
Jonnyboy Posted 11 February, 2015 Posted 11 February, 2015 Rule 1 pap! Edit - did you check with your hand or have a look?
Bucks Saint Posted 11 February, 2015 Posted 11 February, 2015 Can report that Pap turned up. And his daughter is also real.
Jonnyboy Posted 11 February, 2015 Posted 11 February, 2015 Can report that Pap turned up. And his daughter is also real. Same question for you.
Bearsy Posted 11 February, 2015 Posted 11 February, 2015 Just read the match thread, and apparently no-one scored
SuperMikey Posted 11 February, 2015 Posted 11 February, 2015 Just read the match thread, and apparently no-one scored At least Lou managed to keep a clean sheet though
Bearsy Posted 11 February, 2015 Posted 11 February, 2015 I hope Lou is ok. There are a lot of v.suspicious characters on Internet. I hope she's not lying in ditch somewhere Although, on other hand, it will get v.exciting & Poirot while we try to figure out Who Done It
pap Posted 11 February, 2015 Posted 11 February, 2015 Well, the one thing that I think we've all learned is that while there is much talk on the forum, there is very little action. Three people. Three f**king people. And I know, I know. Someone is going to bash out the much-anticipated "meeting people off the Internet in a pub is weird". Thing is, /not/ meeting people you interact with is actually weirder. I know this from my transatlantic travels. Lot of benefit to actually meeting people; 99% of them are forever sound thereafter. Thanks to Bucks and Lou for your company. We may have been the only three people from the forum, but it was cool having a drink with the pair of you.

vince Posted 11 February, 2015 Posted 11 February, 2015 I hope those that met up actually enjoyed a sociable pint or two and for all the posturing and quips made, it was worthwhile.

Mrs G was saving lives so couldn't make it. Don't not invite me next time!

Crazy Diamond Posted 11 February, 2015 Posted 11 February, 2015 Had to get a different train into town today unfortunately but glad to hear you all had fun. If it makes you feel better, I had to get a different train home, so have only just got in.
Crazy Diamond Posted 11 February, 2015 Posted 11 February, 2015 Bugger. I was going to go and pretend to be you. You know you're the only one I would approve of x
ant Posted 12 February, 2015 Posted 12 February, 2015 I contemplated dropping in, but it would've been really awkward if there was only the three of you as I don't think I've chatted to any of you on here! Ended up having a drink with a lovely lady that I've been chatting to on POF, so rest assured I made good use of the time.

You would be very welcome but I cant promise to beat the lovely chat you ended up having

Patrick Bateman Posted 12 February, 2015 Posted 12 February, 2015 How come all you care about is looks, and not whether I am a nice person or not?! Because it's funny? It's meeting randoms off the internet. You probably are very nice person, but you could look like Meg Ryan, Jennifer Lawrence, Jo Brand or a 6'4 male hairy biker - the speculation and banter is amusing.
ant Posted 12 February, 2015 Posted 12 February, 2015 You must have heard, four is not a crowd? You would be very welcome but I cant promise to beat the lovely chat you ended up having Fair point, I'll come say "hi" next time POF? How come you weren't hanging out of the back of her by half time? What a charmer! In it for the long game, not a quickie. Apologies if that's not banterific enough.
Turkish Posted 12 February, 2015 Posted 12 February, 2015 Fair point, I'll come say "hi" next time What a charmer! In it for the long game, not a quickie. Apologies if that's not banterific enough. Well you're looking in the wrong place being on POF then.

What's more funny though, is after 300 posts on this thread, only three people had the nerve to show! Next time I might start a 'Dinner?' thread and really raise the stakes...
ant Posted 12 February, 2015 Posted 12 February, 2015 Well you're looking in the wrong place being on POF then. It's not 2008! Believe me, wanting more than a fumble is a major advantage on there these days.
