Careful, you'll be appearing in the letters pages of The Times before you can say "retarded-thread-media-storm-in-a-tea-cup".

Hone says it and he's an evil begger. Lowe says it and it's prudent. That's how it works. I thought the outrage over Hone's statement was absolutely laughable at the time and it appears even more so now. It has also been quite evident that Lowe and Wilde are unable to offer anything whatsoever by way of improvement other than Lowe's long awaited experiment (v3) which no doubt in his mind is still destined to bring great things. Oh, for Nigel Pearson and Leon Crouch right now.

Someone needs to make sure the club are forewarned so Staplewood security can be increased. Don't want a John Lennon moment. I suppose it's just one of them things though.

Is that further than Newcastle?

On a completely different but related in as much as its-to-do-with-physics-and-that's-what-makes-stars-work point...... Consider a scale model of an atom constructed on a football pitch: If the nucleus is a football in the middle of the centre circle, the electrons would be peas orbiting outside the edge of the pitch. It really is remarkable we don't fall through the floor considering that most of matter is nothing. Physics, astronomy and various other sciences are truly mind boggling, awe-inspiring and wonderful. It's a crying shame that our children aren't taught them properly.

No really, it isn't interesting. He's clinically bonkers in the nut about Glenn.

No, not really. You put it off until the last minute because: a) It completely shafts lots of other people; b) There is a chance (hah!) that someone could find some money somewhere in the interim. The only caveat is that if it is completely inevitable it would certainly be best to get it over with in time to ensure there is no point penalty next season. I can't believe it is that much of an inevitability though. NO ONE will benefit from it.

I think you'll find Jacksons Farm (if it has any development value or appeal at all) would be sold as part of the administration.

WHHOOOOPPPEEEEEE!!! :smt026:smt035\\:D/:smt041[-o Actually, Thomas back would be great right now. He was very good with Cork against Brum in the cup. We also need Euell and John back badly. :smt117

No. What can they do? Do you think Lowe and his acolytes or Wilde will sell up now? Only if someone pays WAY over the odds. They've managed to engineer a complete **** or bust situation. Would you be able to stomach their smug grins if it was your money they were walzing off with? Yes, I agree. Indeed - PLC when it suits Lowe, bleeding emotional blackmail when it doesn't. Exactly - it would be nice to have owners who actually gave a ****. Apparently, it isn't!! I agree (although I don't think this bit is quite right ) It is indeed, although I would like to think that those who are clearly to blame (and who are incidentally also shareholders) would consider it morally incumbent upon themselves to offer some sort of financial support. Lowe and Cowan could always loan their shares of the £563,000 termination payments back interest free and without security. Wilde could find his invisible £2million (I think he left it with the invisible investors). I would also urge all small shareholders to exercise their voice. Write in to the board and ask them to explain the justification for the current experiment. You own the company that employs them. I don't want a billionaire Arab, a yee-haa Yank, or an international criminal running Saints, I want owners who give a **** and whose prime motivation is SFC - if we had those then maybe some of the "traitors" might be more inclined to help.

Capello's been in the job for a few months and has learnt pretty good English. Ramos has been there much longer and can't string a sentence together. Methinks he can't be arsed. Methinks it's rather funny. Would absolutely crack-up if Spurs or Newcastle or both went down. Looking at what Hull and Stoke are achieving it's not out of the question that one of them will!

As succinct and accurate a summary of my thoughts as I could have wished for someone else to have written! Cheers!
-
You're still a complete arse IMO.
-
Sounds great but if you think we would get him you're having a laugh! Lowe and Wilde have succeeded in making the job one that only a nobody from the lower leagues/another country could consider taking.

Letting SAGA/DAVIES GO! Is it our biggest mistake?
benjii replied to SOTONS EAST SIDE's topic in The Saints
Not picking John is having much more of an impact. If any of those players were still here we wouldn't pick them anyway. -
Fair play Saint Jason - the sheer idiocy, incompetence and arrogance of Lowe and Wilde are mind boggling. If I sat near them I don't think I could bite my tongue.
-
If we can manage not to concede any corners, fre kicks or throw-ins we have a chance. Oh - it would be nice if John and Skacel played too.

Our biggest mistake was letting Pearson go - or to take it to the next level... our biggest mistake was Michael Wilde stabbing us in the back. -
Who's in the John, Milton?

Look at his cute little face.

A lack of decent home fixtures, coupled with poor performances on Sky has been a big factor IMO. We've only had one Saturday fixture against decent opposition (B'ham). Our other two Saturday home matches were against Blackpool and Barnsley and one of those was a ghey kick-off time and on telly. A move up the table of 5 or 6 places and a few Sat 3pm kick-offs against "bigger" teams (without televised thrashings interspersed) and we'd get 18,000 or so which is a perfectly normal CCC attendance.

More chance of a rim-job from the Pope than seeing any tit or fanny in this episode.

Buy shares in Saints. When Paul Allen takes over you'll be quids in.
