As I have a close relative with pancreatic cancer (terminal unfortunately) I am particularly happy that SKD and Saints are doing this. Good stuff.

A review of Saints exports and how they have fared.

 

Les Reed reveals how Saints do it. Black Box, the lot: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/37954971

 

What a great article and a positive view on life at Saints rather than the usual lazy journalism

 

certainly makes you feel proud to be a Saint.

 

I wonder who holds the dossier on Reed's possible successors. God, I suppose.

 

I don't want to imagine a world without Les Reed.

 

Not Newspaper gossip, but Saints speculation from me:

We will win the Europa league and the FA Cup this year. My reasoning? The other half has just booked a two week holiday for us for our 20 year anniversary covering both those dates. There is no getting out of it for me. You know it is going to happen now.

So for the 30 odd thousand going to Sweden and the 50 odd thousand to Wembley in May, spare a thought for me.

 

I'll bring you a programme from Sweden

 

Bloody hell. 20 years? That it? You wife needs to appreciate that 25 is a landmark. 50 is a landmark. 20? Hardly started, mate. If you like I'll come round to your house and tell her this. I'm sure I've got some full body armour somewhere.

Hope you're going somewhere nice.

 

She kept asking what dates I could get off work so I 'cleverly' didn't include those dates. She ignored me as we have saved over £1000 by returning at the bank holiday weekend. Still, I suppose there will be a bar showing both finals.....

 

Soooo. She's obviously not hopeful that you'll make 25 years then.

 

Time for some simple maths and that statistic that we all fear having to use: how long have you been with your wife and how long have you loved the Saints?

Simple maths should help her see things right.....

 

Lol, and I've never sang "Stand up if you love Jakki"

 

A bit embarrassing if half the Northam stood up

 

Pierre looks at a fitness programme run by Saints. The first thing is helping people get fitter, but I also think this sort of thing is valuable as a stimulant of the mind. Too easy for people to drift into lethargy.....going out regularly, meeting others and having discussions can revitalise the mind. It must be more appealing when associated with a football club rather than a health centre. Great idea.

 

When I first looked at the picture I thought 'When did we sign the bloke in the background on the small trampoline?' Did the Black Box have an off day?

 

Not sure it's easy for people to drift into lethargy. I was going to join a gym but then I couldn't be bothered...

 

Looks a bit like Hugo Schecter
