Give it to Ron

Not credible not bull**** just 2 totally different Saints fans I know texting me saying they have heard this and had I heard it as well. Not the sort to hear idle gossip - they dont use forums and dont know each other. Just a wait and see I guess but just threw this out there to see if anyone else had heard it.

Has anyone else of an Indian consortium looking to buy us? Have heard from 2 different sources today.

Shouldnt have too many worries of karoake singers on a Thursday night with that number flocking to the pub. Perhaps we could do a park and ride from Mountbatten school.

Can we have meetings on Wednesdays as Dave does a brilliant curry for a £5. Might need a new bouncer now Hookie is off though.

Kelly is another one of those brilliant people in the office. She has helped me solve a few things in the past and deserves a bit of praise at times like this.

With most of the high earners leaving and almost certainly others having their agents getting diallers cramp finding another club already there is no reason why we cant live within our means. I do not see how charging £400 to supporters who have stood by you through thick and thin...especially the thin is going to be wildly accepted. How do we know the 'new' lot are not as bad as the old lot and it will take time to win some fans back. Fleecing them is not one way of doing that. Anything more than £350/375 will not see many takers IMO.

Of course he does with his record...who else is going to employ him? I am sure there are many of the Football League clubs clamouring for his signature!

New manager please that will loan/beg/borrow players that are suited to the division we are in. Wotte no matter what the luvvies try and say WAS part of the set up here since the start of the season. He was part of the set up that bought in Forecast, Gasmi, Pulis, Pekhart, Robertson, Molyneux and Smith that wasted all those loan/agent/signing fees. I am not sure about Sideways Jim as I am not convinced he is a League 1 manager with his brand of football. Ince, Jewell, Boothroyd or Cotterill for me but think wages will rule out a few of those. I have heard nothing but good things about Tisdale but worry that he may not be ready for a club of our size like Sturrock at that time....if we survive that is.

One is Barry the Briefcase The other is a Life Long Cherry Supporter.... PS Edit Snap Stanley ;-)

They were made to buy Saints season tickets and watch all the home games this season!

Well now we know which division next year they can now all get their bids in!

But then we wouldn't be in the bottom 3....oh never mind!

It will if we finish in the botton 3 this season.

Played against him at school...absolutely light years ahead of anything in our team or his. Stuffed us 3-0 which was rare as we had a good side.

Don't want that Arse shaving bloke he's a lazy bastard ;-)

Sorry this was on 606 that bastian of truth that we actually had a bid of £1.2 m or can you provide the link for that as from what I can see it was far less.

I used to park in M&S for Rosebowl matches but then got warned away by the parking warden. Last Sunday I paid the £7 to park outside the ground which for all day isn't bad but does anyone know of anything cheaper..don't mind a bit of a walk.

Have you thought of getting sponsorship for this event....Awaysaint could be your assistant in a Debbie McGee sort of thing?

You may find this handy as I used it when we went in November. http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=534197 We stayed at the Cosmopolitan Hotel in Tribeca which was small but very clean and in the real NY area not the touristy bits. Great deli opposite and decent bars around the hotel area. Has a subway stop right outside and 15 mins from Times Square. book through HotelConnexions for the cheapest rate.

Yeah sorry double posted got distracted by bloody work!

The trouble with additional revenue streams is in our case we have hardly had any success with them, radio station, insurance were a total failure. I could not understand why we have not utilised the stadium more for concerts, theatre productions, religous festivals, ice skating.

Ok you may believe that but personally I don't and have judged him solely on his performance and decison making here especially after all those successful things you mentioned above.....you forgot the best academy in the country, top class catering.... I have written to him on many occasions and used to really enjoyed his radio slot on The Saint when we owned that and he answered several questions at that time - Ok the Ask Rupert was a total joke but that was due mainly to his serfs ;-) There are obviously a small few who may but there are always a minority group who go against the grain in all walks of life.

Many of us are now hoping for that white knight to save us, we especially need someone with no previous baggage here. As you say we have never had a choice who owns us as the PLC and the way voting at AGM by the big corporate blocks was carried out we never stood a chance. Its not the fans fault we are where we are..we didnt sanction any of the loans, transfers, high wages or shocking managerial appointments in the past by ALL parties so I just pray we have a clean slate with someone who can get us solvent and out of this horrible mess.

Well the last bloke we had that had those attributes was a brilliant success wasn't he....especially on his return....oh! This has nothing to do with class, race or creed just shocking decision making and used as an excuse by some to justify their support for him.
