I was responding to someone heralding him as one of the only players in our squad with top flight experience. It means jack ****.
Remember the party was a celebration for the club as a whole not the players, they had there moment on Friday night. Last night was about the people who work full-time for the Foundation, Academy, Ticket Office and so on. So the club were spot on only inviting 50 fans. Well Done Mr Cortese for organizing such an impressive event.
If you look at his form in the early part of the season just ended, it's understandable. He was a revelation. I remember watching TFLS one weekend when he'd played yet another great match, and Steve Claridge was astounded by him. He said he was unrecognisable from the player he'd seen in previous seasons, and to be fair, it was absolutely true. Since his injury he hasn't gone back to being that astounding player, but neither has he reverted to the rather ordinary player he was, previously. Obviously, his game is very dependent upon his fitness and strength. Technically, I don't think he's quite PL standard.
Is this the promotion party thread? You know, the one where we all have a laugh, look at the pics and vids and soak it all up??
Can we all stop bickering and discussing Chaplow? I didn't put him in my thread, he's just in one of the pictures. For christ sake just enjoy the pictures, video and talk about the enjoyable moments recently.
Someone on Twitter has posted some pictures for those not lucky enough to attend, and in there is a picture of Nigel singing/dancing to "Dancing Queen" - I am shocked. He's always so reserved! please log in to view this image Anyway, some more: please log in to view this image please log in to view this image please log in to view this image please log in to view this image
It is a pity that one or two poster on this thread don't have a little bit of class or at least the social grace to know the right things to say and do at the right times.
just been looking at the pictures of the player awards on the saints website, Lee on stage with his interpreter is quality. best job he ever applied for http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/page/Gallery/0,,10280~2761034,00.html
I don't remember anyone adding before but wasn't Lord Mawhinney a guest speaker at the awards? The same one who put us into administration...? Seems a bit odd/ironic
Surman is doing ok with Norwich and i would have Chappers in front of Surman any day. A winning TEAM is not just about individual talent, its about motivation and man management as well. Let the whole team enjoy their moment and blow off steam before the next quest begins. If you want to cull and damage team spirit, i suggest you get back to playing footy manager on your pc until your mum calls you down for your tea.
Sorry mate you beginning to sound like a skate. If you don't start posting positive, it will on to the ignor list for you, you are entitled to your negativity but quite frankly at this time of success I simply don't want to hear it.
I believe it was a random selection from the database, lucky b*ggers, I couldn't go, haven't got a black tie.
Totally agree. What a great man for looking after and rewarding ALL staff at the club with a night to remember. Wish I was there looked like a great night.
What do you expect when you call me a skate?!? I have an opinion, and though it differs to yours massively, it is a valid opinion nonetheless. Add me to your ignore list if my opinion hurts your feelings so badly.
