Do you KNOW FOR A FACT that the consortium that LLS is involved with is no good for us? DO YOU KNOW who is in this consortium? DO YOU KNOW if they have enough money? If the answer to any of these questions is "No", then I suggest that you are making judgements based on things that you have picked up on this forum. Saints could disappear in a couple of weeks or less and you are making snap judgements without knowing the facts. Let`s hope that Fry does!

My eyes are open and so is my mind unlike yours. Nobody wanted WGS when we appointed him because he relegated Coventry. Suddenly he became a hero here. MJ is not in this on his own. He has NO MONEY. He is acting as a middle man/agent for those that may. If he is a chancer Fry will not deal with him. If Fry goes with his consortium it will be because he thinks that it`s the right one. Fry is a professional and will not have the wool pulled over his eyes. As I said, let`s wait and see.

If they haven`t, Fry won`t accept any bid.

"I will never set foot in SMS while Lowe is there"! Oh Dear, Oh Dear! Her we go again! FFS WAIT AND SEE!! Don`t pre-judge. You might end up with egg on your face.

Strangely, he speaks very highly of you!

How about Dainty Dave?

It is an Olympic Sport in 2012 doncha know! That`s one definite Gold Medal for us!

You forgot to mention the Statue of the Blessed Rupert Lowe paid for by Leon Crouchs great great...... grandson!

There were a number of posters on here who pooh-poohed Pinnacle because of spelling mistakes on their website. Have people checked the headline on this Saints article? "Soithampton", "Dilligence"?

Has there been any suggestion that he is going to be? Surely he is just a go-between/frontman for the people who hopefully have funds. Maybe he is doing it because he is a "Lifelongsaint" and he might earn a few bob if it goes through. To quote David Brent maybe he is a "facilitator"!

Exactly!

No he doesn`t! Nor does the Lynham guy from Pinnacle. They are front men for the people that (possibly) do.

I don`t know MJ at all. My only "knowledge" of him is basically through this forum. I have no idea about the validity of any bid that he may be involved in but I am ****ed off with the pathetic attempts of a handful of newish posters on this forum that are enaged in a rather amatuer (at best) and nastily childish (at worst) campaign to discredit him and his involvement in any consortium. Go away. I will make up my own mind.

Is this a case of bigotry over common sense? How many people on here didn`t want WGS as manager because of his record at Coventry and were proved wrong? How many times have people said about certain players "Oh No! We don`t want him. He`s ****!" - only for them to turn into crowd favourites (Peter Crouch, JV etc). The proof of any pudding is in the eating - not just what it looks like from the outside. Lets (still) wait and see and not pre-judge.

Oh Bugger! I thought that this was a thread about lesbian shennanagins in prison!

Pancakes or Merringtons?? You`re not Russell Brand are you?

My apologies. I just thought it quite funny that an ex-Saints Manager had joined this group, but obviously it`s not.

Just seen on Facebook that Dave Merrington has joined the "I Bet I Can Find 1,000,000, People Who Hate Portsmouth FC" group!

So are you saying that if he set deadlines, stuck to them rigidly and we ended up driving everyone away because they couldn`t meet those deadlines, that would make him appear strong? We could end up with no buyer, but Fry would appear strong? We are talking about multi-million pound business deals with multiple players involved. These things do take time and ingenuity sometimes. You have to be flexible to get the best deal. There is strength in using your head sometimes.

I think that you said that 48 hours ago!!

Exactly!

Source??

The only person that has the facts is Mark Fry. 99% of everything on this forum is mixture of conjecture, BS, and plain ignorance.

I heard this and I am pretty certain that it was a Roller not a Bentley. Lady Penelope is buying us! Thunderbirds are go!!

I know that LLS has become a figure of fun or hate on this forum, but he has no money. His involvement is as a catalyst getting those who may have money to make a bid. I do not care who puts a consortium together as long as it gives me a club to support for many years to come. Now I can sit here and say "MJ is a ****** and I don`t want him anywhere near the club" or I can let Mark Fry do his job and presume that he is no idiot and will accept the bid that is acceptable to the creditors and best for the club. IF that happens to involve MJ - so be it. Beggars can`t be choosers!
