The Round Ball Game

[teamsaint]

Thanks for the round up ER. Seems like you had an enjoyable afternoon.

I am giving up football for lent......NOW.
Its bad enough having a poor defence, without having refs gift other teams pens for nothing.
Still, not in the bottom 3 .....yet !!

Its Rubbra and a consoling beer for me......

Sounds good to me.

[Alison]

Sounds like you played pretty well, Sainty.

Be of good cheer.

Must take a look at your forthcoming fixtures ....

[johncorrigan]

Barcelona may have pinched our colours, but it looks we've retaliartd by pinching their style ...

Wow! Scotty, the Jags even received the messageboard honour of their score in brackets in words from Rob - they'll be dancing in the streets of Kelvinside tonight!

You might need some box sets and crates to get you through the season, ts. Still, you had a good season last year.

That was a pretty awful incident at Hillsborough. I remember when Leeds fans used to beat up other spectators and let their team dole out the injuries to the opposition - now it seems they are doing it themselves

Thanks Alison. We have swapped leagues with LCFC a time or two recently...could happen again ! Decent point for you today.
As you say, we are playing good stuff going forward...but the Pl is no place for defensive frailty.

oh well its only football, and....oh no, its spuds next.

I have decided a new found interest in world music will be healthier...if not cheaper !!

I am box setted up for the winter, thanks Aeolium.....and beer is still on sale!
Beer and box sets...now that would be a good album title !! I stopped worrying about results very much when we were days from oblivion. As long as there are 11 guys in stripey shirts running around on a saturday at SMS(or wherever) that will do for me.
Except that the ***** shirts are all red this season.

Leeds.......words fail.

Edit,,seriously, as a listener, music seldom lets you down.....one of its great beauties.

Commiserstions, John ... watched your game on the box ... Buddies fans not too happy, booing the team off at half-time.

They started off well, actually but I think Neil Lennon is building a very capable and competent side that can compete in Europe.

Doesn't seem that long ago the Saints thrashed the Hoops 4-0 that famous night?

[EdgeleyRob]

Midweek results make grim reading for most of our teams.

Chelsea lost.
Leicester won.
Coventry lost.
Hartlepool lost.
Bristol Rovers lost.
Port Vale drew.
Man City lost.(not a board team but couldn't resist).
Sheffield Wednesday lost.

[aka Calum Da Jazbo]

...oh misery oh misery etc ...

and Arsenal

[antongould]

Oh dear another manager gone at Hartlepool - if Wiki can be trusted in the time Sir Alex has spent at MU we have had 22 changes of manager.............

[aka Calum Da Jazbo]

that's nigh on a full squad!

pretty general collapse in Europe eh... except Sir A and his cherry boys

Celtic did no bad against the Barcas, I thought - still no points mind you, but a touch unlucky.

[teamsaint]

THey are going well. It must surely be good for the Scottish game, which seems to be in such a poor state, to have a team doing well at the highest level.

who know, the Rangers thing might just shake things up, up there in the Arctic !

How many is that since Clough? Be positive anton - they've graced Div 1 a fair bit rather than 2 - they've not troubled the Conference - OK the Owls spoiled your transition to the Championship - but Geoff means you've got National coverage - and you've got Hangus! - and we've had loads of managers including Turner and Wilson and we're still low in our league
