That rule won't apply in this case. It is only for those going into admin between the end of the Prem season and the AGM of the Football League in June.

What ever happened to the Popular Front of Southampton?

He said "marketing" not kit design/colour! i.e. the use of an old photo with David Weir blended in wearing the 10/11 Rangers shirt which also reflects Rangers history.

Maybe take our 10% to 15% out of a Surman transfer fee.

Then why is Simon Francis on the list? The Sky Sports article clicking his name links to makes no reference to Southampton. There was however a thread on this forum where it was merely suggested that Saints "may" be the club. If you click on Mike Grella the source is a Leeds forum. So they clearly forums have been used so you can't deny you don't use forums. Where have the Luke Varney, Lee Trundle, Jamie Ward, Darcey Blake, Danny Ings rumours come from as there are no sources provided for these? Where did the "speculation for the £125 season tickets" come from in an article today? Was it the thread on here where I merely used it as a discussion point and said I thought it very unlikely to happen or even this thread?

Have they broken this? 16.1 All Clubs shall keep their financial records in accordance with the provisions of The Football Association Rules and the Executive may arrange for an inspection of all such books. and this? 16.2 All Clubs must forward a copy of their audited Accounts and Balance Sheet to the Executive each year, not later than ten months from the end of the Club’s financial year. They may have sent them but they sure weren't accurate!

The Premier League would have no say in the matter apart from passing on any evidence to the Football League for them to make a judgement. Different governing bodies.

I wonder if they bit about £125 tickets is based on my thread? In which I made it quite clear I didn't think it would happen but just raised it as a discussion point. Do discussions on here really deserve being reported in the cities press? They use rumours from this site to add to their Saints transfer article even if they are completely unfounded.

Different governing bodies. (You also don't know what the Football League will do in the summer)

Or Shirley

Of course Saints did. If not Saints wouldn't have started on -10, it would be a lot more in the way of points deducted ala Rotherham, Bournemouth & Leeds or not at all and just thrown out.

Two clicks, like I said will get you to the match. Also doesn't explain why you didn't post your link in this thread to give it a bump.

I see no reason why you didn't just add your post to this thread and give it a bump. You can get to it from here quite easily with two clicks and the fixture list is in the opening post...

French equalise 1-1

But this thread already had all the information in the opening post so maybe yours wasn't needed. No point starting a thread for every game in the tournament when there is already a 60 post thread about the subject. Anyway lets forget that and enjoy a Schneiderlin hatrick.

Semi-final match on Eurosport now. Schneiderlin starts.

Have some self control and financial responsibility like the rest of us then.

What does that have to do with saying... "Not naming any names, but the club begins with B and ends in X"? You might aswell say "Bordeaux may be interested along with others" rather than playing word games.

Some very strange logic to that statement. There is always going to be season tickets. Even if they went on sale one day before the opening game. If you have already set aside the money what difference does it make if it comes out of your account tomorrow or in July? If anything it benefits you more the later it is, as you are still accruing interest as it is in your account. The financial planning of some people on this forum is shocking!

Why not just say Bordeaux?

You have to find time to to all that between the signing of autographs.

It was Brentford. Southend probably made the bid public on their OS to start a bidding war. http://www.echo-news.co.uk/sport/8183359.Brentford_s_bid_for_Francis_accepted/ http://www.hounslowchronicle.co.uk/west-london-sport/allsport/2010/05/25/brentford-close-in-on-southend-united-defender-simon-francis-109642-26513500/
