Quite. Personally I hope that you recover from you problems - I really do. But the biggest problem that I think you will have is servicing your current running costs. Even with all of the debt wiped away and everything zeroed - I can't see you getting enough through the turnstiles to run as a going concern. Ergo - you need to downsize on your wagebill. Whether you can do that and still remain competitive in the Premier League remains to be seen - but 100 million pounds is not enough to bank roll a club for any considerable amount of time. Will be interesting to see what happens post (and let's face it, he looks history) the Doctor, but failing attracting a 'sugar daddy', you then need to attract a fairly rich investor(s), and to do that you need to be an 'attractive investment proposition', which unfortunately - I don't believe you are right now. That said - good luck.

I remember the days when a bloody greate crane in an urban area was seen soley as a bloody eyesore - for me now though - the bigger the crane, the bigger our next signing...! Happy days.

I know better ways to blow my bonus than buy a ramshackle club teetering on the edge... there are a lot better 'investment' opportunities out there thats for sure. Lets be honest as well - in the world into which he is stepping, how for is his 100 mil going to go - pay off some debt, fund a few players, and then what...?

Agreed - he served them very well over the years, just a shame that they turned to him as it was all going pear shaped. Would have been very difficult for him to turn them down - and now it's all gone 'pete tong' he leaves a club he served with distinction, for many many years, under a cloud. Very, very sad really.

I notice you were quick to report this story, and also notice your username - you're not the one and only Delia Smith - are you...??? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_8JLkwzpd0 I rest my case, M'lud...!!

As we are talking euphemisms, "Parting of the waves" tends to suggest a god like figure who can walk on water, hardly likely to have been sacked methinks..! Obviously "Parting of the ways" would suggest something completly different though...!

Go on - make yourself an ITK legend and tell us all - you know you want to really...!

Whilst I agree and take your point - this was in fact no less than what Pinnacle had in store for us if they were successful with thier bid (allegedly).

I have a few contacts in that area - perhaps I could help him out, all he needs to do is make contact with LLS who in turn will set up a meeting with a very reputable Dr - well regarded in the game - honest guv...!

Damn - got me...

If it is - it's a very good fake site and Saga should be flattered that he is the subject of such an elaborate hoax. I think it's got legs, just poor timing by somebody in the reporting chain.

Translation appears to indicate more of a loan move. Edit - perhaps I got that wrong - helps if I translate Portugese as opposed to Spanish I guess.... doooh! Last Minute Marek Saganowski about to sign The Sport Lisboa e Benfica is about to sign contract with Marek Saganowski. Sources close to the process say that the agreement is to brief and presentation can now be done in the next game to be held in the Stadium of Light The fans are euphoric and anxious to see Marek Saganowski serve the Highest of the World Club.

What I really want to know is how did he know the difference between the car park and Fartton Park..? Both resemble land fill sites...!

Ummmm should be winning it outright with that many points still available, surely.

Can somebody please explain, using the english language, what the hell this thread is about? Many thanks in advance.

But failed to finish, unfortunately...!

How about a blast from the past, but brilliant, brilliant game. Craig Maskell against Liverpool Tue 15 Feb 94 - if you were there you will remember it, for those that weren't, The Independant sums it all up very nicely. http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football-le-tissier-sets-up-the-rout-of-poor-liverpool-1394350.html A certain MLT got a hat trick that night as well, but was still snubbed by England - fools...!

Alan Shearer - hatrick against Arsenal in first full appearance...!

Nice job .Comsaint & Tractor Saint - good to see this forum 'up in lights'...!

You think you've got problems - I've got bloody 'Mud' and Dynamite playing on my Radio Solent internet stream FFS...! Arrrrrrrghggggggggg...!

Yoof fighting again then...??

Ummmm 2.6 billion pounds poor, what about your 'kids'...?

And to think that they actually gave him the Freedom of the City as well...! Even after he had jumped ship - beggars belief. I bet there is somebody in a coucil office now with head in hands still wondering how that decission was passed...!

This is our magnificent legal sytem at work here - it is reverred around the world as one of the fairest systems in place. It takes hundreds of hours and costs millions of taxpayer pounds to administer - most of it going to politically correct lawyers and judges who are so out of touch with reality it is untrue. A 7.62mm round to the head costs about 13p and can be dispenced in about 0.13 seconds over a range of 10 yards. I know which system I prefer.
