I respectfully disagree. The gesture of giving them the shirt sponsorship was the defining point of the arrangement, donations to charities from clubs is no big deal, it happens fairly commonly and would generate vastly less interest. In this country the shirt deal was unprecidented.

You have ignored the massive exposure it's given to Acorns, far more valuable in many ways then just a big fat cheque. What are the major charities based in/around Southampton?

Bloody hell he did! Ha!

Either a local charity or nothing. It would look great to have a kit like West Brom a year or so ago, just 'clean' and right.

I've done it a few times, 11 am on a saturday, plans have fallen through I will just think, sod it, I'm off to see Saints! Down the M40/A34 I go. Arrive at 1.45, get ticket, quick pint in the King Alfred, jobs a good 'un. Frankly, two whole pounds won't make much of a difference to my decision. Mind you, being given a half season ticket for Xmas will force my hand somewhat.

According to Talksport Watford have suspended all shares, they owe 5 million by the end of today, the Skates will be responsible for a fair chunk of that.

Not over 40, not even over 50. Over 60!!!!!!! There are limits!!!!

15,600 or so. Bet more will be out for a final though.

Do at least quote the entirety of my post before posting your response, your tactical ommisions undermine your point chap. And either way, we won, i'm ecstatic, this is neither the thread nor the place.

#sigh# Fine, forget romantic thought during a cup victory and the possibility of innocence in our youth. Lets stamp out all feeling and make the sport the sterile pro spectacle it deserves to be. Remove all emotion and lets make it the stoic respectable event football should be. Regardless of fear they may have felt they where emotional and excited children and they where seemingly treated like hardened criminals. That sounds like a horrible lack of perspective to me. Some people need to get a life, and yes equally some parents may need to buy a leash.

Go as far as you want, either way there is ONLY one winner.

Bang on! Frankly glad that the younger generation are loving watching Saints again. The future fanbase begins here....

For the sake of a form table, We drew For the sake of everything that matters, WE F**KING WON!!!!!!!!!

To say I am ecstatic is a huge understatment, i'm on cloud nine! COME OOOONNNNN!!!!!!!!!!! F*ck the early start tomorrow, i'm celebrating into the night.

As the Skates are a creditor, and the owner has called in all money, could he inadvertantly send them into Admin?

If Watford went into Admin, would the Skates still owe the full sum of debt?

He took his time but for that alone his signing has finally been justified!

His ability to do that to good effect has been one of his strengths. Better to try then stick to a poor plan A.

Merry Xmas Ron, we are all with you.

Midfield, beyond that, not sure.

Nonsense You are Castor Troy.

I agree, it's a dreadful situation for a fan to be in, I hope for their sake they can pull through.

Dad is getting me one for Xmas, so it'll soon be 1001.

lol @ People taking this seriously. If you want to wear a Santa hat, go nuts! I won't be though, just, well, because.

If it does get called off, is a ticket refund possible?
