miserableoldgit

A beautiful British name!

Well she is "a household name"!

Had a bit of inside info that it might be Ben Steele and Quintin Hubbard from Guernsey;)

Not much new, but Echo reporting deal close. http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/saints/news/4324510.Saints_buyout_close_but_not_sealed_yet/

In todays Echo Kelvin says that he really wants to stay with Saints and that he has had the happiest time of his career here. http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/saints/news/4324509.Kelvin__I_hope_I_can_stay/

Quite right. Let`s just keep our fingers crossed!

League One didn`t scare Leicester this season, and they would be considered a big scalp I suspect.

Bloody Hell! You`re sticking you neck out!

TBF it was almost a throwaway line at the end of the report about Saturday so it may not have a direct quote from Fry. It may have been journalist-speak. Bottom line is that we won`t really know until it all unfolds.

Well being a "glass half full" sort of person, I am assuming that as the club is liable to go out of existence within the next few days, a new buyer would be rescueing us. Wouldn`t he? Probably just a turn of phrase...probably.....I expect.....isn`t it?

Yes but these denials are all about Tom Scott, not Lowe.

Blimey! I would hate to be the same room as you and Alpine. I`d end up slitting my wrists. And I`m supposed to be a miserableoldgit!

These were the words used on the programme.

Just mentioned on South Today that Mark Fry hopes to take a rescue package to the FL by the end of this week.

This is the problem for Crouch though. Damned if you do and damned if you don`t. If he had just walked away like he didn`t care he would be crucified, but because has stayed and appealing to fans , he is being, well......crucified.

Totally agree, but it was strange on Saturday. I sit in the Kingsland on the halfway line and although it was an emotional day, I didn`t detect any feelings of "nastiness". It was only when the police came on with the dogs that the feeling changed. I am not condoning the pitch invasion etc but I seriously wonder if the police preparations for this game and the "dog" decision were the right thing.

Interesting way of describing 1000`s of members of the general public.

Someone saying something positive about McMenemy shock:shock: Agree with you sentiments.

If that is the case then I whole-heartedly agree with you.

I agree. In fact Wotte said that the team wanted to come out and applaud the fans for the fantastic support in what has been a nightmare of a season.

Obviously.

I heard from a fairly reliable source that "Crouch and one other" paid for Davies` transfer fee. Could well be the case. I am not arguing that Crouch hasn`t put a fair bit of his money into the club, and fair play to him for that, but we are, what, £30M in debt? I think that the amount that he put in pales into insignificance when compared to the debt which he is partly responsible for. As far as I am concerened, Lowe, Wilde and Crouch hold a degree of responsibility for the mess that we are in. It is the proportioning of that blame that is open to debate.

Hmmmm......... who has a better idea of what has really gone on at Saints - MLT or Roger??:confused: Can you please explain how Leon has bankrolled the club? I am aware that he funded the Ted Bates statue, that he possibly helped fund Andrew Davies transfer, and that he has donated a fairly big amount to the current SOS Appeal, but I am not sure how he has bankrolled the Club.

I agree with everything you say here, but what I don`t quite understand, is why HR decided to stay on after we were relegated when he could have walked away at the end of the relegation season. It was painfully obvious that he never really wanted to be here. I even remember that on the day that he was unveiled as our manager, whilst he was being photographed with a Saints scarf above his head, the snapper said to him "come on Harry, you can smile!" but he couldn`t bring himself to do it.

It was actually the Burnley players called for the Physio. The ref was totally useless and had no control for the whole game. David Armstrong on Radio Hants (not for the first time) stood up for the ref and reckoned that he got most decisions right!
