Ahhh so it's true - many fans are in total denial about our current plight...

What like AFC Bournemouth did, oh good...!!!

Don't start - there's enough shyte going on without all that malarky again....

Maybe he's meeting someone tomorrow... or the next day maybe..... Shhhheeesssshhhhhhh....

Couldn't have put it better myself - but it appears that most want to hang him and allow others to hide in the shadows. Lowe will be taking the blame on all things that go wrong with this club for the next 20 odd years at this rate.

'Dig them up' yourself - what do you think we are, your PA's...????

We need a miricle - no amount of leadership is going to keep this lot in this division. They just aren't good enough and have no fight left - we are the whipping boys of this league. Sadley I don't think that things will get much better next season either.

For those of you that missed it and just can't resist, its all here: http://new.talksport.net/index.asp?id=106290&c=&t=#media Enjoy

The simple question now though, is to establish how many viable bids are on the table. The more tyre kickers that involve themselves in this process the longer it will drag on - most on this board should appreciate this fact from quite recent activities elsewhere.

I'd sell the bleedin' Crown Jewels if it meant survival for us - once a Saint always a Saint....

Ray Houton & Lee Dixon for me.

I love the good ol' 'there was trouble' posts. It always seems to be on a massive sliding scale starting with 'all out war' to 'handbags at 10 paces'. Mind you I suppose it's no different to the match thread ratings which are also consistently inconsistent.

Perhaps somebody with 'photoshop' skills could edit the photo with names for those of us who are not ITK and unaware of 'whose who' or (who we are claiming to be who, as the case maybe). It might throw a little light on the subject.

So then, this 'wave' of optimism, was it of tidal proportions or should we really have claimed a 'ripple' instead - it's just that it all seems to have petered out already and doom and gloom (normality?) abounds once again....

Struggling with the arrogance remark, although not particularly surprised that its there. I too would like a serious buyer to emerge, but surely the more (serious) parties that we have interested - the better it is for the club. It opens more doors and gives us more possibilities to get ourselves on a sure footing for the future. Remember, no so long ago we were offered the SISU deal and decided (rightly or wrongly) not to accept it. Therefore the more options that we get over the next couple of weeks - the better chance we have of survival, progression and eventual success. Where arrogance fits into any of that - I am at a loss.

That is what worries me to a certain extent - how many tyre kickers are in the group? It would be nice to know that we had at least half a dozen 'capable' interests at least.

That may well be the case - I am unsurprised that so many people want to be associated (own even) SFC. But whether this is the success that we all want it to be remains to be seen. The speed at which you assumed the moral high ground was frightening - perhaps it is time to dismount your steed, wait to see where the club is in two years time and then you can gleefully trot out your 'I told you so' line. Yes, with administration, there is a chance for us to move forward now, but equally we could simply continue to fall into oblivion.

Although, I admit, most seem to concur with your opinion here.

Actually they haven't. I have actually seen posts which praise Euell, Skacel and Saga for their efforts today. Strange how opinion differs between fans who witness exactaly the same game isn't it...???

Ahhhh and therein lies a problem.....

Yes I was passing judgement - my judgement being that you were (are) far to quick to take the moral high ground with you usual 'I told you so' attitude. Was I passing judgement - yes, HTH.

According to the Echo report FlyBe clearly are considering that though, and as they are our main sponsor that is worrying. It wouldn't surprise me if other sponsors did the same - especially if, as is likely, we are relegated and hence our profile drops in the commercial areanas. That was simply the point I was making based on the report that was highlighted.

How's the Spirit of Southampton now ..?? - hope you drank it...!!!

Ohhhh lord - can I feel more blueprints and another consortium coming in for us now...!!! I can't take anymore - I really can't.....

Sorry - you've lost me there. The point is?
