If you lived in a house and......

cracks started to appear in the walls, the paint started to peel, several windows were broken and tiles were falling of the roof would you say

"don't worry about it chaps. Just think we used to live in a cave and that lot down the road live in a hole in the ground".

No you would get off your arse and fix things.

That is what Nigel and our coaching staff need to do.

 

Well said Godders, wish i worded it like that.

 

Still true about that lot down the road, though.

 

We could also move to another house (but not an option for a football fan).

 

Crikey Godders I did not have you down for that kind of response. What happened to the coat?? So we're out of the Cup...well sue me but I don't really care that much. Nobody said this promotion lark would be easy, but Nigel and the boys pulled it off last year, and they can do it again. All aboard.

 

Has anyone seen my mojo...I seem to have lost it.

 

It's true that most businesses can only dream of getting the sort of loyalty from their customers that football clubs get from their fans. doesn't seem to stop most of em treating their fans like sh!t though.

 

When I started reading the thread I thought it was going to be a dig a Fratton Park

 

Not at all compareable st godders.

firstly you would need the money to fix it. in this case saints have and taken great steps then to fix it

so we have worked hard to try and fix it but that doesnt mean to say our house can compete with properties around us. Ours is (better than a cave) but not as good as a stately home (in this case rivals west ham, blackpool, birmingham - were all premier league last year whilst we were in league one)

too many other factors - luck, refereeing decisions, injuries etc

 

and that bloody coat. It has got really silly now as I don't think we will win again until the weather improves and she stops wearing it.

 

I am surprised that bloody coat hasn't disappeared into a charity bag accidentaly godders.......

 

Or accidentally dropped onto the bonfire (hint hint)

 

Well Godders, I would suggest that you didn't look close enough at the house in the first place. Maybe you had a quick glance around during the first few months of being at the house when the paint still looked attractive and glossy and all the tiles were in place. Maybe you thought the house was actually turning out better than you had hoped.

Perhaps all your friends drove passed in their nice cars or called in for a quick drink and said how lovely your house was; perhaps the lovely Mrs Godders made the house looked better and brighter than it was and made it's performance look better than reality.

Maybe when you bought that house, you thought that it would last you for a good few years. Do the cracks in the walls, the peeling paint and the few missing tiles really mean your house isn't going to last you, or isn't the house you'd hoped for?

Maybe this house will still be okay and the small current failings are just under the surface but the foundations and brickwork are bloody solid and will keep you dry for a while yet!!

maybe.

 

Lee, Sharp, Puncheon, Falque - it's not like we've been sitting on our arse. There was also th carryon with Hooper and interest in others. Now there's the loan window if we want to use it.

 

Work in progress Godders,
Rome wasn't built in a day and just like a good relationship cracks will always appear and hopefully get fixed. Premier things in life take time to acquire.

 

i think you will find that NA took over the garden shed, nowtwo bedroom, kitchen,bathroom and living room are ready, just need to fix up the dining room and sundeck. Everything is hunky dory

 

You've already over achieved big time this year. It's just that things are now catching up with you and righting themselves.

Another trophyless year.

Was down at the Gasworks for a firms do the other week. Is that quaint silverpot the 'Ted Bates trophy' in a little glass cabinet it? Or do you have an honours room like down the road?

 

Anyone seen your silverware lately

 

Sundeck being the word.

We are a fair weather team we like playing our silky stuff from August to whenever we get a cold snap then the team turns into a group of non battlers who lose away to sides like Doncaster when its bloody cold.

 

What are you trying to say Alex? They're a bunch of gay lightweights perhaps?
