Bitter but optimistic

Agreed Pates. Criticism of Viney is one of the unreasonable responses to today's debacle.

I agree Doctor. While I've been known to whine and carp with the best of them, some of the comments on this and other threads today are as weak as [censored].

Agreed. Some signs.

Why the gloom and doom? We are a chance here!

I'm optimistic!

Maybe it's just that blokes doing a bit of ..ah hem "hip and shoulder" is not that uncommon in the hills around your part of the world Jazz!!

Have you still got the lace up jumper and little cap OD?

I'm bypassing (nasty word that) the beer today and have decent Shiraz breathing. I also have a less decent one on hand if the game goes totally to shite.

Is this fair dinkum RTG? If so I'd draft him just for the name!!

What a bunch of sad and tragic poor bastards we are.

I went to two training sessions this year (including intra club) and have presented at both games. Geez, we train a lot better than we play!

Come on Moon, I know how you really feel!

Congratulations Flo gger - a good post. The "lads" found some of those pretty faces quite fetching and exciting. In fact I'm slipping some valium into their tuckerbags. BTW. That ends my praise and positivity.

I have posted this before I believe but a friend of mine (a 35 year MFC member) who gives me very good discrete info claims that Wines expected to be drafted by us until virtually the last moment. I only repeat this because it suggests a schemozzle at that time.

Our draft pick success rate does not inspire confidence OD!!

I use that to dag "the lads". WTF does that mean? You taking lessons in Westralian Moonie?

FMD!! You actually measure this stuff? Christ Jazza you play this hard working dairy farmer role but you also lead a life "on the the other side". Nonetheless Biffen and I want to sign on. Daise would like to but he can't give up the blue rinsers. 1800 teats a day - amazing.

Now don't get me wrong Jazz - I'm not a prevert or anythink - but how far back do they stand?

Even Lordweaver can't deliver it with that rapidity!!!

Have you blokes got enough to pay the bills as yet? Don't be shy about rattling the tin if not.

Jesus, I hope that happens quickly and it is from a great height.

Real men! Come off it Jazz. The real men of Romsey are very particular about their overall coiffure. I run the whippersnipper over the armpits daily.

The problem is that Jack appears to have no concept at all of what a "lead" is !!

Stats are funny things and far more complex than ever. Is there anything that is not measured or counted or analysed these days? Keep it simple, just look at the number of goals we have scored over the last year or so. Until we correct that imbalance, everything else is "noise".

Hope you're wrong OD but fellows of that build can be chancy.
