seems redundant now as one football club is very much a football club and the other...well... isn't. So I suggest ditching the "joint" and just making it a Saints mod statement only. Carry on.
What you meant to say is: one football club is very much extremely arrogant and the other.... well.... isn't.
Don't paint everyone with the same brush. If i was to do the same i would think your all childish twats like the ones on The News site. But you aren't are you?, some great Pompey supporters on this forum.
Well, I laughed at the irony of this thread being a perfect example of what the "joint statement" addresses! I could point Meowth and Lampras in the direction of that Sage, the DevonFrattoniser who wrote, on behalf of both sets of mods; "However, as with any open forum, we will inevitably experience the prose of posters whose sole intention is to wind up or aggravate supporters of the other side – WUMs, as we have coined them. Now the vast majority of us get pee’d off with WUMs when they make constant attempts to rock the boat, so here are some valuable tips to deal with them. 1. Do NOT post a reply to the thread – that’s exactly what they WANT you to do. 2. Do NOT confront the poster in person as it is likely to end in a bun-fight" which is all well and good but this from Meowth "I hereby deem this to be "a singular statement from a clod" thread." made me nearly spray tea all over my screen. I think that the word "clod" is not used nearly enough and I intend to try to work it into use at work today, somehow.
I was allowed to say "the sods" in class many years ago when I was about 10. Alright then many, many, many years ago when I was 10. It was from a famous poem and I had to read the whole poem out to the class. One verse was: We buried him darkly at dead of night, The sods with our bayonets turning, By the struggling moonbeam's misty light And the lanthorn dimly burning. Some posters will no doubt recognise the poem.
I had an old Aunt who used to wickedly say things like, "well, I said to the gravedigger, this is my husbands grave. Would you mind turning the sod over...?" There is always opportunities for misunderstanding and humour when words change or the verb is not where you expect to see it. I was confused for ages as a child by that line, "The Lord's my shepherd, I shall not want.." Why wouldn't I want Him, I used to think.
Nothing can beat Dave Allen's juvenile mistake when attending a funeral and hearing the Priest say "In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and into the hole-he-goes". Classic.
A brilliant poem inspired by a very sad episode in British history, but which led to the appointment of the Duke of Wellington as Commander-in-Chief and the liberation of Spain from French rule.
Today I saw a little worm, Wriggling on his belly, Perhaps he’d like to come inside, And see what’s on the telly.
