This reminds me of 'The Emperors New Clothes'. We have an untried manager at this level (cheap). We have a divided fanbase. We have dwindling attendances. We have won 1 game in 4. We have players being brought in that the manager hasn't a clue about - surely not Chairman Lowe bringing them in. Let's face it, Lowe is crap. If he was that great at running a football club, he would have been headhunted as a chief exec from a top side.

Delusions of grandeur already - non producer.

You obviously didn't read the question that I put down then. You would have seen that he did avoid the question. I didn't ask anything to do with a takeover, the answer was not full and frank. Where is the conspiracy theory there? I asked a question, he waffled like a politician without answering the question.

There we go, didn't take too long for one of Rupert's army to chip in. Look who we have out of the side - Wootton, Euell, Skacel, John and make room for them in the first XI by replacing lesser players. It's not rocket science. It seems to me we are playing an inexperienced side solely on a publicity angle. In my opinion it is suicide. Funnily enough, I don't know any anti-Rupert saints fans who are happy about things at the moment. I am not denying the youngsters aren't giving it their all, but so would a side of Southern League journeymen. It's just not enough. There are a few plusses to be fair - Holmes gets a good ball in, Mcgoldrick looks a bit of a handful and Lallana looks a good bet.

To be fair, Euell finished last season really well in the centre of the park. Spiderman or Gillet, take your pick. They were both crap against Blackpool.

Careful, you'll be called negative because you're not buying into Rupert's masterplan.

....

My mum could have Pennant in a fight. And that dickhead with the bell.

Bit of a waste of time having a Q & A session if you aren't going to answer the questions. He strikes me as being as honest as your average politician.

only another 27,900,000 to go. Hurry up.

So you don't think he evaded any questions then?

Wrong. He was sacked because gates were dwindling. If we were in the same position but playing to sell-out crowds every week he would have kept his job. The problem we have now is that Lowe and Wilde are hardly going to sack themselves when gates go down.

The only chance we have of sanity returning to football is if Platini gets his own way. He sees clubs who prosper while running up larger debts as cheats. I agree with him on this. Something has to be done, it's getting sick.

We could get LLS in as chief executive and rebrand ourselves worldwide. We would have to be called Saints FC UK Ltd. Gullible f*ckers.

Sorry delldays. I meant for every decent foreign player at the start of my post. I do not consider anyone British to be foreign either.

For every decent foreign player in the Prem, there are at least 2 average foreigners. Transfer money which is not being filtered down to the lower leagues. The sooner they bring the foreign quota in the better. Even better would be a salary cap. I am sick of mercenaries kissing the badge one week, and going on strike for a move the next.

Maybe there should be a f*ckwits forum for them.

Who knows whether this is down to money or not. IMO all takeover talk should be banned. If it happens, it happens.

Bullsh*t. Conversely, there are some out there like you who would support Lowe come hell or high water. Wilde was asked a straight question which he never played with a straight bat.

At best he is deluded for thinking we are in position to achieve promotion. At worst he is lying. The man doesn't make sense, and has no credibility.

Football first philosophy my arse. The man should have been a politician. Shyster.

I think it amusing that someone as successful as Ashley thinks more of Wise and some agent than a living legend. Football is just a rich man's plaything now. None of the old values exist. Hope it all falls down around them.

I don't believe this meeting last Friday stuff. They have had more meetings than the Civil Service. Surely they know the price by now. Meetings are pointless now unless they are to seal the deal. Put this one in the file under 'tyre kickers' to go with all they others. Face facts, we're skint and stuck with Lowe and Wilde. Depressing.

The person whose post I was replying to didn't have a problem. I don't suppose anyone else did either. Apology accepted.

Nowhere near the worst ref we'll get this season.
