Personally i dont think it'll take much in transfer fees to get promoted as there are plenty of players who could do a job for us on frees. We need a comanding centre half (but not a cart horse) and a left back. A right and left midfielder and a couple of forwards, one bigger phyiscal type and one with skill or speed. Webber would be a good signing in my view.

Whats the website address of the site that was set up?

Going back to Oz, or so Stelling kept saying all season on Soccer Saturday.

Did ok at QPR, think they were 8th before they sacked him, hardly a bad job.

Would love to see a return to this style for us, ah the good old days...

I see it's got a coming soon page up on the OS site at the mo. Wonder what it'll be like....

Maybe not as much as others, but until that takeover has gone through i'm not gonna be getting carried away, we've had far to many false dawns even in my relatively short lifetime

Although good that we appear to have been saved, i'll wait til i know the details and who the money man/men are before i get too carried away.

The lack of confirmation of who was actually playing stopped me buying a ticket.

Don't really follow cricket but am doing Fantasy Cricket to try and get into it. How come Pothas isn't playing at the mo? Should i replace him?

So why doesn't he say who he had lined up? Maybe it's cos the British Manager wasn't anyone the fans would have been impressed with.

I thought he turned us down to go to Cardiff instead? 123 games for them in 4 yrs, will probably find another championship club i'd imagine.

Also Jamie Hatch and Jeffery Imudia not being kept. Thoughts on them being let go..?

Without knowing names, we could do with a proper left back for starters! a centre back with a bit of pace, a central midfielder who can put his foot on the ball and find a pass, and a big lump type forward who can put himself about and unsettle the oppo defenders.

Impression i got was just another group that were in talks, only difference is these ones didn't mind their names being made known i seems.

But how do you know they aren't just the front of a group and have serious wealthy backers behind them? I know they wont cos this is Saints we are talking about, but you never know..

Seems to be quite a few stories coming from The Guardian recently. Wonder if someone has a contact with them and is leaking information, bit like Lowe and Tha Mail?

After yet another penalty miss today, just wondered how many this is now this season we have missed? We used to be so good at pens with MLT and BT :-(

Who or what are Bandai? Donation of over £1K from him/her/them

Billionaires don't happen to Saints Multi Millionaires don't happen to Saints I'd settle for a millionaire if it meant Saints stayed alive.

Branson via Vigin has just invested heavily in F1.

If we can sell out the last 3 home games that 90,000 through the gates, which is probably the equvilant of 6 homes games based on our attendances this season. Gotta be good for the extra cash flow! Even if it's 15,000 extra per game at £15 per seat thats an extra £675,000 in revenue!!!

Any idea what our players wages bill is for a month?

The pledge total currently stands at £210,500 min (assuming the £5K+ put in just £5K)
