Thank you everyone who voted for me. I have cleared a space on the mantelpiece ready for my award. It should look good next to my old school football team photograph and the very lovely Mrs Godder's chipped china dogs. She was concerned that my trophy should not be too big as these days her arthritis makes dusting a painful chore and lifting heavy things quite difficult. I would do the dusting for her which means I would have to put my walking stick down but then I fall over. Does this award also carry a cash prize as that would really come in handy now that I have to find an extra £34 for each of two season tickets? I have listed a few items on eBay to raise the extra cash so if anyone wants a dodgy SatNav or a paint splattered coat you might want to take a look. I did suggest to the very lovely Mrs Godders that we should buy only one season ticket this coming season and that each of us could go to alternate home games. Her reply was short and to the point which I think meant there would only be one person going to games if that was the case and it wouldn't be me. When I checked in the tin some one had removed exactly £709 from our season ticket fund and when I raised this with her she said it was to buy her own season ticket. This I thought was selfish of her as there isn't enough left for me to buy a ticket to which her retort was that I would have more money if I didn't spend so much time drinking at lunchtime with my dodgy mates down the pub. So there you have it I am now celibate, tea total and season ticket less but the very proud recipient of this prestigious award.
When I told my son I could only afford one season ticket a few years ago, he seemed to be under the delusion we'd share as well. Mental, some people.
I would like a lifetime achievement award as my posts and threads and have ended being included as signatures for more posters than any other contributor.
Godders, you win that award as you are the only one on here who has been alive for a whole life time.
For all we know he could actually be a fantastic and incredibly committed internet troll. Plot twist: Godders is Mrs Godders! She's also a teenager and loves Football Manager.
Aw thanks guys. I think that's the first positive award (i.e. not worst name change) I've ever received, so thanks,.
There could even be an alien from outer space on here...we'd never know. Who is the most likely candidate?
Always wondered...is Lapras your surname? I always read it as La Paz and imagine that you live in South America.
I always read Joe's name as "Joe's Teinburg" and have a split-second thought of "What the **** is a Teinburg?" I think it's a budget Danish larger.
If my surname was La Paz that would be awesome. But no, it's not my surname. It's the name of a Pokemon. Back on the old 606, there was a just Pompey Meowth and I can't remember who or how it came about, but someone said we should all change our names to be name ourselves after Pokemon in the manner of Pompey Meowth. So myself and a few others did so. A couple of others still post occasionally, like Pompey Raichu. Lapras is apparently a water-based Pokemon. please log in to view this image I also considered Pompey Ponyta as the only Pokemon card I ever owned was a Ponyta. please log in to view this image My actual surname's not particularly exciting, but I like it. It's quite English. But it's not Smith.
When I got my season ticket on Monday I filled in a form to be relocated as I am pissed of with the blokes behind me always moaning either about me or Guly. I could be coming to a seat near you soon.
Godders would lose his **** if he saw all these Pokemon posts. He would no longer have his ****. It would be in a recognisable form no more. Joe - You have no idea the lengths I would go to for a beer right now. Weather hit 44C here today. And there's been high dust for weeks now. I'd do horrible, unspeakable things to be in the beer garden of The White Horse in Otterbourne, or The Cricketers down the street from my home in Eastleigh.
