I come on for a quick look to check if there's any news and I see rumours of Lowe about the place. Surely he wouldn't but the bloke is a masochistic narcissist so the very fact that his name has popped up gives me the willies. Will somebody tell me this is a wind up?

You mean nobody is ITK? Another Friday comes and goes then.

Aaaaarrrrggghhhhh!

I sense the mother of all Fridays lurking just around the corner.

Is that GM's assistant doing the acronym research or has the man himself allocated some time in his busy schedule to do a spot of googling? The heat is getting to me. Need to go to the pub. Cheers!

To be honest I did think it a bit odd given his reputation for having a big gob and head but the words used at the beginning made me think it might just be what he really thought. From what you say he's just a lying ***t that can't be believed whatever he utters. FWIW I do take most things uttered with a pinch of salt but if someone tells me something "sincerely" then what should I think? Anyway, it must be interesting to go through life not believing a word that's said to you. Did you believe your Mum when she told you who your Dad was? Cheers!

So are we supposed to believe that when GM says "in all sincerity" that is not what he means at all? In fact he's not being sincere but is actually taking the p!ss? If that were to be the case then I'd advise anyone dealing with this "businessman" to understand that his word is definitely not his bond. Unless, of course, he really is being sincere but ISTM that nobody can take him seriously. Now I normall take what people say at face value and, going by some of the cynisism around here, that's obviously a failing of mine in some eyes but if it's a sign of how business is conducted these days then no wonder the country is in the sh!t. Cheers!

When somebody uses those words I don't expect the following comments to be "ironic" or "taking the p!ss". Maybe these days it's expected that people tell lies and perhaps I'm a little but gullible but the word "sincerity" still means something to me.

Well I never! Adult behaviour breaking out on this board and I can do no more than to welcome it. Apologies can be difficult and it takes guts to stand up there in the way GM has. I applaud him for it. An apology also asks for a response and I think I've seen a suitable one here. This club needs to come together, shake off the 10 points penalty and fight back together. Hopefully we're now seeing the start of Saints revival. Together! (Even with Sundance, Nineteen or whoever you are). Unity provides strength.

Put that pen to paper and hand over the money. Then perhaps we can look forward to the coming season.

I stopped watching at half time thinking that 3-0 was comfortable. I guess the 2nd half was just like watching Saints then.

Sky obviously reckon we'll be able to put out a team in League 1 then. Would it be too much to hope for a TV win?

The end is nigh!

Time to start rounding up that lynch mob ready to head for FL HQ.

At least tomorrow is Friday. That's what everyone has really been waiting for.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Kro-uzMgL0 Give me just a little more time. And a little more, and a little more.

If you were my lawyer I think I'd have to consider killing myself, even if innocent. Pretty grim guilt trip there.

If there's been a decision then I would hope that our team will be aware of what it is.

There seems to be an apostrophe on the loose. I used to not like Mondays but now I'm out of work they're like any other day. Except, of course, today is a sort of Friday isn't it?

The FL certainly don't come across as what I would consider to be gentlemen in these negotiations. When one thinks of the chairman's history in politics that doesn't really surprise me. I shall try to put the matter to the back of my mind and start with the F5 routine on Monday. Thanks for the update btw.

Would it really not have been possible to sort out these technical details sometime during the last three weeks? I guess not since this is Saints we're talking about. Gather again on Monday for more fun and games then.

They're teaching the art of the golden shower at school?? Well that does surprise me ... or does it?

I see we're bottom already. http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_div_2/table/default.stm If we start with a home win we'll reach zero quickly imho. Another opening day defeat and it'll be mid September I reckon. Btw, have we given up on any more appeals against this 10 point penalty?

It's good to see the great man get his reward. Memories eh! His was the first signature (after my mum!) into my autograph book when I was about 10. I thought it looked good and used it as an inspiration for my own.
