wheels Posted 30 May, 2009 Posted 30 May, 2009 (edited) Am reading his book "Jellyman's Thrown a Wobbly" which is all about Soccer Saturday, and came across the following quote whilst his was writing about Le Tiss: .."As it was, by staying at Southampton he was a) regarded highly by large numbers of the football community because his club were hardly perennial winners, and b) hated only by Pompey fans, and who really cares about that?" Brilliant, and that from a Hartlepool fan as well. I would highly recomend the book, has some great stories in it, and Jeff's admiration for Le Tiss is there for all to see.

Have not got round to buying this book yet but it already sounds an interesting read.
Dearne Valley Saint Posted 30 May, 2009 Posted 30 May, 2009 Just reading it myself and really enjoying it. Jeff has always had a soft spot for saints. A top top top bloke
lee_saint Posted 30 May, 2009 Posted 30 May, 2009 Just reading it myself and really enjoying it. Jeff has always had a soft spot for saints. A top top top bloke Lives in Alresford and he's been down to watch us quite a few times, I remember him saying his kids were mascots one time.
Islander Posted 30 May, 2009 Posted 30 May, 2009 I'm reading it too - it's a great insight into Soccer Saturday from a great bloke! A good read and very funny.
RedAndWhite91 Posted 30 May, 2009 Posted 30 May, 2009 Lives in Alresford and he's been down to watch us quite a few times, I remember him saying his kids were mascots one time. Really nice bloke, he watched a couple of my football matches for Alresford when he was at the park with his kids. Legend.
saint lard Posted 31 May, 2009 Posted 31 May, 2009 I have often seen him in West Quay,very amiable bloke to speak to.
Dicko Posted 31 May, 2009 Posted 31 May, 2009 I met him at M3 Winchester South last year Really nice guy & told me his kids were Saints fans
Saint Charlie Posted 31 May, 2009 Posted 31 May, 2009 Its a good book full of loads of great stories, well worth reading.
RedAndWhite91 Posted 31 May, 2009 Posted 31 May, 2009 I met him at M3 Winchester South last year Really nice guy & told me his kids were Saints fans That's funny, I didn't think Saints fans wore Chelsea shirts... (One of them is a Chelsea fan at least, I'm sure of it!)
Summers Posted 1 June, 2009 Posted 1 June, 2009 I've read it, Definitely a fantastic read! ''Matt (Le Tissier) sadly was a coke addict, not the Mark Bosnich type, no i'm talking about his fondness for a particular brand of fizzy drink'' :-)
Dicko Posted 1 June, 2009 Posted 1 June, 2009 That's funny, I didn't think Saints fans wore Chelsea shirts... (One of them is a Chelsea fan at least, I'm sure of it!) I met him about 2 weeks after they were mascots I got the impression from what JS was saying, that they were Saints fans :confused:
