Saw this for Djenepo on SW earlier to the tune of The Las - There she goes Djenepo It’s Djenepo again Scoring for the Saints And I just can't contain This feelin' that remains Last couple of lines could be changed but potential there I reckon.
Boufal compared to St Michael? Sorry Le Tiss lovers, Mick will always be the greatest player in a Saints shirt, so I'll have that. French football fans don't understand how we don't get Sofiane. They saw what he could do when a) played regularly and b) was told to play his game. Boufal, Ings, Redmond and Adams. Bring it on. We're back to 66 and the "**** you, we'll outscore you" days. Love it
I'm old enough to have seen Ron Davies play a lot, and Mick Channon all of his Saints career. And they were my heroes. Terry Paine could have been but he was nasty/cheeky at times. But all of them knew MLT was the most skilful Saints player of all time. That does not diminish them one iota. Rather it makes them bigger heroes because they recognise genius. And [entirely separate] on the Boufal getting him to defend thing. He does defend. Did MLT defend? Does Messi ever defend? If either did or do, it's by accident, not design.
Absolutely. At the risk of being exiled to the politics thread, we are world leaders in pessimism. Saints fans have it in spades. We don't always have to be complete ****e just because that's been our station in life so often. We can be good. We can finish top 6. We can win cups. I don't want us to get entitled, but we all need to believe that Ralph can lead us forward. This needs to be shared by the board, of course, or we're heading to the land of Lawrie departure. But for once, looking at the investment in the team and the superb manager, I am allowing myself to dream. This is not Boris Johnson pie-in-the-sky dreaming, but based on evidence.
I agree that Le Tiss was a genius. Davies was the best centre forward of his day according to Shankly. Mick was unplayable on his day. I also saw Le Tiss have bleedin' awful days. I guess that we are lucky to have seen these guys in Saints shirts. And actually, when he scored that goal against WBA, I felt the same about Sofiane. I'd love more of that, please
Indeed. No disagreement there. Oh - Busby, not Shankly. Shankly's quote is the 'ale-house football team' thing.
One of my bugbears is when people call music ****. It's not ****, you just don't like it, which is fine, but that doesn't mean it's ****. Lots of other people will like it and dislike the music that you like, does that make the music you like ****? People get so holier than thou and snobbish about music taste and think they're better than others because they like or dislike certain music. I'm not a big fan of that Bastille version, and much prefer the original, but that doesn't make it ****, millions of people like it and that's fine.
I haven't heard the Bastille version (don't even know who he/she/they are) but the original was pretty **** so can't see a remix being any good
Oh I completely agree with your point. Except in the case of that one instance. It’s unadulterated **** (original song was good though).
I just had to listen to it out of curiosity. I’m now torn between being thankful that I’d never heard it before and desperate that I can now never unhear it.
I'm sorry for bugging your bear , but I'm really not being holier than anyone, or snobbish, or better than anyone and for all I know Bastille are classiclally trained multi-instrumental musical genii ... but music arouses passion, so opinions can be expressed passionately On the other hand it would appear (to me) that the Bastille singer can't actually sing Mind you, Faure's Requiem v the Birdie Song? Just a matter of taste?
