They didn't take the points away for that. For a breach of insolvency regulations. They gave a brief to Grant Thornton, a different one to the club, who insisted GT worked to the club's copy. GT walked out reported back to the league who then with 5 mins notice and no further contact imposed the penalty for the club failing to co-operate. This will run and run.

Now tell me. Why do we need a CVA? I know but do you. And the answer to your question ' for a breach of insolvency regulations'.

I did give him a clue, the old 15th century house down from the cathedral but obviously nobody is as well travelled. -

Everything I know is available somewhere else, there is no cryptic clues. -

I think you might find we will be debt free, why would we need a CVA as the club is not in administration and the overdraft and the debts are the clubs and probably will be settled in full. SLH has assets but little debt which will be sorted by the buyout and the purchase of the stadium. -

Just a gentle word in your ear, it's an ex Saint that you are lecturing. I just thought you should know. No wonder he feels devastated. -

I met a gypsy today, she told me to look for a star in the east. I wonder what that was all about -

The iron beds, the brick cages and the torture equipment nearly made me sick and that tower of bones and piles of skulls at the killing fields was unnatural. For some reason I took photos of those walls. -

Been to the interrogation centre in the secondary school and the killing fields in Phnom Phen. Jesus that was a scary experience. -

Been there liked the old house by the river, at the back of the government buildings opposite the cathedral. What's it's name. -

And that means? That we are going to be bought.:):) -
Today we reached rock bottom when the penalty was missed and the game was drawn. Sod the minus ten points we may or may not get, it's irrelevant, from today we can finally look forward to a rosy future. In my opinion in a short while we will have new owners, no debt, a stadium that if another match was never played there,will pay for itself. A football club that will have the best gates/income/costs in any division of the football league. New management, almost a completely new squad, a much lower wage bill, completely self sustaining and profitable. If the right management is brought in in May, the squad brought together before pre season, possibly some quality loans, then we can look forward to a cracking season. Don't ask me any questions I Don't know the answer. However for the first time in years I feel very happy tonight. I feel confident the takeover will happen sooner rather than later.

Absolutely clueless. The Charlton game was the worst display of management I've seen in over 50 years. Today ran it close. The only time Lallana came within 5 yds of the touchline, plays James in on the overlap, cross from the byeline we outnumber the back pedaling defence on the far post and we get an easy goal. Did we try it again no it was a fluke everybody just happened to be out of position in the immaculate diamond. We are 2-1 up get a penalty, scuffer grabs the ball, everybody lets him get on with it, he lines up 45 degrees off the line everybody including the bloody pigeons knew it was going right, you couldn't make it up. Saeijs or Surman, not McGoldrick, he scuffs his shots apart from the swinger he scored v Palace. The substitutions were bizarre two on the wrong side. How Wotton even started let alone got a three year contract is unbelievable. We reached rock bottom today. I've got a big smile on my face and I'm looking forward to next season without the bulk of this squad. Believe me we are on our way.

It's a no brainer, at the price NU/Aviva would settle for it is an absolute snip. If a football match was never played there it could pay for itself and turn a profit. The new owners will buy it, the football club shouldn't have to find a penny let alone the £2.4m a year we are paying at the moment. It is really a new start whoever buys the club and no millstones. If we do well the stadium will be packed and we will be able to afford good players.

For a researcher you really are behind the 8 ball, wed 1 in due diligence 2 awaiting proof of funds, thur 2 in due diligence 1 awaiting proof of funds. BBC/Sky/Setanta/Itv/Echo quoting the administrator.

It's a no brainer, the stadium will never be cheaper and without football could make a profit on it's own. I would expect whichever of the bidders succeed, to buy SLH including all it's assets.

Meeting Thurs 23rd with Trust, SISA, Saveoursaints, 2 MPs, LM and MC
derry replied to derry's topic in The Saints
The Trust unless through an emergency rescue it became the owners of SFC, should forget about fan directors and concentrate on building up a huge membership in a trust with real integrity and expertise that can liase with the owners and if they are not happy take them to task. Sensible owners will have no problem with an organisation like that, which has a legal status in it's own right. If a huge membership is built up it gives the trust a status that no owner could ignore. It's a bit like having a sensible, non militant nevertheless powerful union. Unless arrangements are struck, the union can exert real pressure. Ask Duncan he knows exactly where I am coming from. -

I like Nick, he is coming over as a well meaning decent guy. He has been sensible and a pleasure to deal with, when under pressure the other night he stuck to our agreement. You can't expect more than that. Thanks for the support. SISA remind me of a chicken with it's neck broken, wings flapping, legs kicking, just hasn't realised its dead yet. -

An association is not the way forward it is too wishy washy and in the event of another situation like the present would not be in a position to act decisively. A revamped Trust is the way to go. It is a legal entity and would need dynamism to get it going. I have no doubt those people are around right now because I've been in contact with them, all the professions, real expertise, dynamic people, achievers. That is the way to go, revamp the constitution, bring in postal ballots by the reform society and attract the ordinary fan. It would not attract the anarchic lunatic fringe because the postal ballot would neuter them. It would bring it's own integrity with it. With intelligent well qualified people running it it would be in pole position to represent the supporters concerns and interests with any owners. It is time to put Lowe, SISA and trust mk1 into the history books and move on. If we don't all this will just have been a bloody waste of time. -

It's gone from 6 to 12 in two years due a knee operation but thank goodness it's on it's way down again, first target single figures by the end of the season. Are you going tomorrow? Ron is close to me if you are around.
