Oxford and Tamworth

[SaintsInHeaven]

I went to Oxford on Friday and want to say how proud I am of the players and the attitude.

 

I don't often get the chance to watch the Saints but I'm definitely going to make the effort to get to the home game against Tamworth coming up. Cheers.

Tamworth was the other week.

 

Woking is the next game at the park (I think).

[SaintsInHeaven]

Are you sure? The ad board outside the park says next game is Tamworth. Perhaps I should check my fix. list. Cheers.

This'll be the new proffesional attitude of the club then.....

I was very proud of the guys too! Great night was had by all and we know how well we can play against these teams and take positives from it.

 

Its been good so gfar this season and I wouldnt swap it for the world!!

Hi Helski.

 

These 'positives'. Did we take them [from the]* first half or [from the]* second half, or [from]* both halves?

 

I know nothing about football but in these discussions, which I find thoroughly entertaining by the way, I often wonder whether there are, in fact, any 'negatives'. Do we take them, too? Or do we ignore them? Or do we take them first, and then ignore them? Or do they actually exist?

 

*[Delete the words in brackets depending on whether this is football-speak.]

[Electric ~soul~]

Haha, yeah I love it! This lot are a bunch of walking cliches!!

 

We could lose six-nil and someone would still be finding positives from it!!

[Laz]

I was over the moon!

[Electric ~soul~]

At the end of the day, football was the real winner. You can never write off the Germans.

[Laz]

Indeed. It was a game of two halves.

[AFF]

Steve Castle was always 'taking the positives' as I recall. Usually [from the] second half. Or it might have been [from the] first half.

 

I intended to ask him whst it meant in the clubhouse after a game but the moment never really presented itself.

[JKiF]

was the only postive that there was no negative?

[AFF]

Now you're being a trifle negative, JKiF.

[GHA EFM]

Positive approach there, AFF. I would've said he was being very negative.

[HelenC]

Very good guys! Did you go AFF? I know Electric didnt so not really sure he can comment as such. I thought we played well and showed what we can do!

 

I dont do cliches, I'm a woman!! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/afro.gif" alt="" />

[AFF]

As you probably know, Helski, I was not at Oxford.

 

However, you appear to have mis-understood my comment which was not whether or not positives could be taken from the game itself. I wasn't there so I couldn't say whether positives or negatives could be taken [in the] first half or [in the] second half, or indeed, [in] both halves.

 

Rather, my comment was made regarding the use of the comment that positives could be taken. It was more a "use of language" observation, rather than a "football" comment.

 

I'm glad to hear that you don't do cliches, Helski. I am aware that you are not a chap.

[HelenC]

'It' really stodd for the performance in general Aff. What do I know anyway?!!!

 

You must try and make some more games <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

[Electric ~soul~]

Which 'positives' in particular did you take from the game, Helsk??

[HelenC]

O loads!!!!!!! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

[eve]
