Philanthropy? All the rage a few years ago....

Indeed....

Yep...same club that ex-Southampton player Jimmy Gabriel played for between 1974 and 1979 and is now their assistant manager.....small world.....

Actually, I'm talking gibberish for once... It was his Bombardier BD-700 1A10 Global Express, registration no. N724AF Landed Heathrow 28th May 2007 @ 09:21; took off same day @ 10:35 Profuse apologies for any confusion http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anorak_(slang)

I've just had an idea for a protest should we go into administration this week.... http://news.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/hi/newsbeat/newsid_7961000/7961224.stm

I once left a rice pudding in the fridge for far too long.

No, not one of McLaughlin's.....it was actually his own jet....registration number N757AF ('twas a 757 not a 737.....my mistake ) This one:

Please keep botany references to match day threads. Thanks.

Although KIV Allen's private boeing 737 came here the very same week that the 'news' of his alleged interest in SFC broke.....probably a large coincidence of course....

Hexalls or Hextalls?

How can a bog standard 'fan on a messageboard' have a conflict of interest.....unless you're a lot closer to the action than you're letting on of course....? p.s. Do you have a scanner in your loft per chance?

Seems like company administration is the business to be in then. Funny, I don't remember it being on the Career Advisor's list of potential occupations at school. Pastry chef was though.

Nope. Can't think of anyone....

That's me done. I'm off for a lamb shank.

Where do the rules say you can fleece people like that?

Hope he doesn't baa you

Didn't get that one Ponty. Hope you're not trying to pull the wool over our eyes.

So, I'd venture we're talking a hearty 6 figures then

I herd that too

Not my understanding. I thought the deadline for losing the points this season was doing the deed before this coming Thursday?

OS tongue-in-cheek-ery, I know, but the opening line of this article made me chuckle! Saints may not be chasing silverware this season, but will be involved in seven 'Cup finals' according to Head Coach Mark Wotte… http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/articles/article.php?page_id=11542

I wonder if the collapse of the WH Ireland / Blue Oar takeover talks last week have any influence on Lowe's next move....?

Yep, a deposit + balance payment scheme makes sense to me...which means the 'only' reason for the ST delay that holds water is that administration was/is a foregone conclusion?

Couldn't they have started selling season tickets 'on time' at Championship rates with the proviso that they would refund 10 - 20% if we were to be relegated? Wouldn't that have covered all bases? Or maybe our financial plight simply means a company can't trade in 'futures' if it's about to go under?

How come we didn't hear about that on here like we 'normally' do...?
