I don't think Saints can be accused of any deliberate hanky panky like Leeds were, SLH has been around for ages, it is not like it was set up to avoid a points deduction.

I would be well happy with Souness running the show, he knows his stuff and is a winner.

What a load of fuss over nothing, if people want to leave early it's up to them. The players probably wouldn't even notice and any potential investor is not going to give a monkeys. I left early because I couldn't stand watching my team get outclassed by the worst team in the league. I couldn't give a monkeys what a bunch of spotty gimps in the Northam thought. I've had a ST for a decade and a week or so ago travelled the length of the country to watch a similar shower of ****e so I will leave early whenever I like, if anyone has a problem with that they are a dickhead.

Exactly, I still want to know why they didn't put us in admin before last Thursday's deadline? It was either very bad management or done out of spite, either way it has ****ed us up good and proper.

As it stands the club could still be ****ed, I fail to see your point.

I left right on the 3rd goal and I have a season ticket, only a dickhead would judge people by when they choose to leave the ground. ****ing retarded thick ****s the lot of em.

Complete ****, we're down and we deserve it.

Whoever sings that are retards.

Yes basically because Lowe put us into admin this week and not last we will probably start next season bottom of League 1 on -10. Or we pull off the great escape, only to be relegated by the Football League as they dock 10 points on the last day.

I think you can guarantee that there will be a points deduction, otherwise every club in the country will set up a holding company for next season. What I don't get is why did Lowe put us into admin just a few days after the deadline for taking the points hit this season - was it just out of spite? Whatever the reason it could have really screwed us up.

As much as I dislike Lowe I think he does have a point. Barclays can go **** themselves, they may well have killed our club, I'm gonna move my account.

Surely it will be £1 to anyone wiling to take on the debts?

dumb idea

To be fair Dennis Wise got Millwall to a FA Cup final and into Europe which is the same as Strachan and he's seen as a managerial god.

How could it possibly be a bad thing?!?

Derby did it, seems fair that we can as well.

I think you will find it's Barclays who have got their wish.

I don't believe we will be put in admin, it makes no sense to do it 5 days after the cut off point. I expect we are being fed the threat of admin just to make it easier to stomach when Lowe/Wilde buy SFC from the holding company.

That's no reason for the timing, Lowe would have known the deadlines and what they would mean. Admin could easily have been announced before the deadline.

Unfortunately that is the only reason I can think of, that or Lowe is using the threat of administration and starting next season on -10 as leverage in some deal.

Does anyone have an explanation of the timing of this? Why have we risked starting next season on -10 when if it was anounced last wednesday we could have taken the hit this season. It doesn't add up.

Does anyone know why we are going into admin now and not last week before the deadline? It makes no sense to do it now when we could have taken the hit and given ourselves a chance next season.

You're right, it doesn't make any sense going into admin now when it could have just as easily have happened last week without a risk of starting next season on -10. Can anyone give a logical explanation?

The timing of it all points to a deduction being avoided. Surely if we were gonna get deducted this would have happened last week before the deadline?
