This is actually about how I feel too ...

FLT - fully agree. After last years game vs West Hoof my part of the Northampton Saints Massive swore never to go and watch them again at SMS (round trip of 200 miles) as they drag the game down to an unacceptable level and so frustrating to watch them pull Saints down to a point where the game is nearly recognisable as a Premiership match.
At least we won't have to put up with Carroll's shenanigans tomorrow

 

I keep saying the same thing, but end up going. Least enjoyable game of the season for me.

 

Does the interview with Yosh mean he's starting?

 

Nolan is top of most peoples **** off list, O Brian is top of mine. He is the Sergio Ramos (without the talent) of the EPL, a nasty niggly little **** of a player, goes in with studs then pleads all innocence

 

I Imagine so and with two clean sheets in a row and decent performances from him it would be harsh in the extreme to drop him.

Saints team left on train for London this afternoon. Someone on Saintsweb has started a thread suggesting we have sold the coach. They don't want to park the coach up in London...I would guess it will go up with the kit tomorrow. Some people like to worry about everything.

 

My match preview for anyone who is interested.

Implied Betfair odds for tomorrow's game

33% West Ham win
38% Saints win
29% the draw

Surprised to find ourselves favourite, but I like it. Probably more than I'll like the game (I'm going). Horrible ground, horrible football.

The saving of the day will be the curry in Brick Lane. I'll come home with sizzling fillings.

Gives the expression more training a different meaning, and probably Scouse have paid over the odds for our coach?

 

Good lord, some people will have a flap about anything.

 

I predicted this yesterday!

 

Yeah, he's in a couple of shots. Might be the last time you do see him though.

 

Rumours that its headlights have been turned are surely exaggerated.

 

There was no indication this would happen.

 

Can we have a groan button added next to the like/dislike please?

 

Nigel would have had every one on the bus.

 

Only if we can have a "fnarr fnarr" one as well. With a little Sid James smiley.

 

And I was thinking a 'round of applause' button would have been more appropriate

 

Its not the most attractive fixture this is it. I've got loads of work to do, and I was thinking, I can miss this one, its a 0-0 or a 0-1 defeat! However, as time draws on, the hopeful me starts to kick in, and I have visions of Pelle executing a bullet header from a Tadic cross.
