How on earth have Stockport exploited anything? I'm sure they'd rather not be in admin. What possible advantage have they gained? In this case, the rules have been applied. Simple as that. The rules might be stupid but I don't think Stockport have exploited anything. EDIT: Sorry - you said "exposed" which I misread as "exploited" for some reason.

What I find most interesting from that is that we had a lower wage bill than both Charlton and Norwich last year. Norwich are absolutely dependent on continual investment from Dehlia and Charlton had to raise £14.7m from shareholders and directors. Yet we are stuffed because our investment = 0.

Is Fry's autobiography out yet? Will he be signing it in the club shop? I need to know this.

Yeah, so they'll cut their losses if they think that (they might actually think that Lowe's return will not be such a big deal). They won't support an amateur team.

Yeah, come on mods. That first one was funny and Super Stan isn't bothered by it. Can we have a "pic off"? Please.

Haha. Look, Lowe is a useless *** and I would seriously question whether I could be arsed to continue supporting Saints whilst he was involved but there is not a hope in hell of a merry brigade of fans being preferred to Lowe and chums (by the people who matter) if they have a few quid with them.

That post says that Lowe personally asked Forest for a ticket. How you get from that to "Lowe is Fry's 'favourite'", is anyone's guess.

Aboslutely. "Saints", as we knew it ceased to be when it was placed into the hands of insolvency practitioners. (Arguably it ceased the day a decent young manager was replaced by a ludicrous block-headed experiment.... but let's not go down that road now). We now have a chance to return it to what I and I suspect many others grew to love. If that doesn't happen then so be it but there really is no logic in saying we all have to support it in whatever guise for all eternity. If it stinks (and I mean ideologically or morally, not on the pitch) then I will leave it.

Does Ted Bates trump Mark Fry? Is Cosimo Sarli the Ace of Spades?

I expect the point she was making was that Barclays have security over the farm, therefore you can't just sell it to anyone you feel like. Barclays would have to consent to its sale.

If we win the appeal, will our legal advisors be up there with Matt Le Tiss?

I know I'm going to get shot down in flames and called an "ITK ****" or whatever but seriously hear me out... Saints will be holding a testimonial for Mark Fry as our first pre-season friendly of 2009-2010. FACT!!! It will be a Boardroom Legends XI (Wilde, Hone, Dulieu, Lowe, Cowan, Askham, Richards, Oldknow, Crouch, Windor-Clive, Withers), managed by Lawrie McMenemy v The New Board (Allen, Souness, Ambani, Branson, Frost, Davies, Salz, Fat Barry, David Beckham, Captain of the Hants U-16 Cricket Team, Bo Selecta) managed by David Platt and Des Walker. In the interests of continuity the match will be reffed by David Jones.

Des Walker and David Platt management team it is then. Fact.

"Please have a hysterectomy as soon as possible" I bet whoever wrote that posts on here!

What happens if you **** on some ****?

My mate's girlfriend has been for a drink with Quentin Tarantino.

I'd like to hear a bit more about van der Waals from certain quarters!

A wise man once said: “When we are tired, we are attacked by ideas we conquered long ago” Just be patient....

Do put a sock in it. Just for once FFS. FFFS. FFFFS. Shut up.

No, I really don't think we do. All you will get is a load of nudge-nudge wink-wink ******** that is completely unfalsifiable or unverifiable from the usual suspects. No thanks.

Yep.

Fry doesn't "pick" anyone. He can't compel the creditors to accept or decline anyone. If they want they can wind the PLC up or they can do a deal with someone. Who that is is up to them. Fry's duty is to run the PLC in the meantime and search for a resolution acceptable to the creditors.

What, you mean if Clarke Carlyle had wlaked up to him in the street and nutted him? Yes. I can confirm that is not what happened though. Good pic though. Reminds me of Terry Butcher.
