ART

I'm afraid there are too many on here counting their chickens before they're hatched. Let's all wait till everything is signed, sealed and delivered before we start crowing and getting carried away. There is many a slip between the cup and the mouth and words are fine, cheap and easy to put out. It's the final deal that will allow us to make bold statements and celebrate.

Thoroughly agree that Greg Pritchard should have gone through to the final tonight. So pathetic that the young Holly, who obviously can't stand up to the pressure, was put through by the judges. That is surely due to ITV walking on ice should she have ended up with any psycholigical problems as a result of the show. Seems that is why it was touch and go over Susan Boyles antics this week due to ITV's failure to give her adequate protection from nutters at the hotel. Time they categorised Britains Got Talent and have an award for the best kid, best dancer/s, best singer and best variety act. I think it would be much fairer and improve the public satisfaction with the results. Dream Bears won the night with one of the Queens unabashed sack exposure which the ever sharp eyed Simon Cowell didn't miss. He doesn't miss a thing. I read somewhere this morning that so many of those DCD Seniors girl dance troupe were seen scratching their crotches as the judges spoke that they should be entered for "Britains Got Crabs"

What a day this is for ART!. What an end to a stressful month, to the 2008-2009 season! Saints are finally beginning to see the dawn of a new age, have found potential purchasers to take the club forward when all looked doomed just a few days ago In 2005 Saints were relegated from the Premiership in England, as were my adopted home team Montpellier relegated from Ligue One in France. Like Saints all looked lost a few weeks ago with yet another chance of promotion looked over. However, tonight, after a incredible and unbelievable final 6 games Montpellier have clinched promotion back to French Ligue One in 2nd position.

They've completely fondu...ed away. S

Rading your condition, it's starting to sound like we're all suffering from SBS, or Susan Boyle Syndrome. Don't know how it's all going to finish up but I can see investment in a psychiatric clinic in the Southampton area is going to have thriving business for years to come.

You sad fools believing another of Saint-Stevo's April Fools. That article about Lowe was written in 2006.

How is it that Pompey gets sold so easily? It's called INTERNATIONAL MONEY LAUNDERING. Simple, plain and easy. And remember Manchester City also have a link with this same guy.

How come that none of you on here are concerned that the council has granted today the building of the new full view 5th Stand to the Stadium which will ensure the likes of Rupert Lowe will be lording from greater heights over the club forever more. http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/4398902.__30m_landmark_set_for_city_skyline/

These latest rumours are extremely worrying. I've heard about there being fairies are the bottom of the garden but leprachaums at St Mary's takes some believing. Maybe they're related to the likes of Simon Gillett. Had plenty in the first team last season but can't for the life of me why NORM would be having his relations getting involved. It was bad enough with the likes of Javi. He didn't stay around long but definitely was more ITK that these puny immitators that post on this site nowadays. Hmmm!! One Mick looks the same as another to me!??

I get worried anytime Crouch has made any utterances ever since he ballsed up the Paul Allan interest and put us out of favor with the Football League by talking too loud about the club set up. Shut up Leon and just keep signing those checks till we tell you to F u c K off into the sunset!

Gavin Davies could have prevented us ending up where we are. He's been blowing hot air and bull s h i t e for years. We are where we are because too many so called big money fans are no better moneywise as the ITK's are informed on this board. Action not words is what's needed !!

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you Phil. ARTOVISION seems to have been a little blurred when I posted and I've misquoted not only about the 7th of July but also the New Moon. It is the Full Moon that is on the 7th of June and if Mr Fry is reading he should have all the positive forces of the New Moon of the 22nd of May assisting him to take full advantage of the improvement in situation as from the 31st of this month i.e. next weekend. As long as things have been started and are progressing at present we should be able to hope for a decent conclusion in the coming couple of weeks.

It's in the News of the World and I noted it elsewhere but don't remember where. Maybe a Google news search for Peter Reid will show more links. He's be a great choice for Saints as Chairman. http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/sport/322686/PETER-REID-LAUNCHES-EVERTON-BID-Goodison-legend-aims-to-buy-out-Bill-Kenwright.html

Interesting to see ex Saint Peter Reid leading an overseas London based consortium looking to buy a major English club, thought to be Everton. The Media could be wrong and perhaps they have an interest in Saints as well.

10 Days ago using Artovision I posted that there would be delays and the best time to begin hearing things would be after next weekend, the 31st of May. For a truly auspicious start to a new project after the New Moon of the 7th of June would be great. I recall

In your case, as in constant believe that everyday is the First of April, the slating is very well placed! :cool:

Wotte is all hot air, b u l l sh ite and little substance. He got off to a good start by motivating the squad of Jan's with a couple of experienced players. After that it was one promise, pretty talk after another as the team tactics got steadily and steadily worse along with the so called promised fighting spirit.

I just knew some would break ranks and ruin the proposed united front in the face of the latest announcement from Fry. Yet if it was to be, then so it had to be someone like Um_Pahars who has long lived by the motto divide and rule. Please tell how many big money investors aren't going to have cold feet over finances when faced with purchasing a League One team starting out with minus ten points? I don't think you'll find any one investor going into this deal wearing pink coloured spectacles. We will be extremely lucky if a deal is completed and the club is allowed to go forward afresh. More likely a white wash deal bundled in scotch tape and sticky plasters is all we'll end up with. Division will only result in disaster and the longer we remain so the deeper sh i te we'll end up in.

Can anyone please explain why SKY aren't reporting anything about Saints? Is it because they feel embarassed that Matty's backed bid has so far failed to produce or are they deliberately helping Pinnacle by remaining silent and not adding extra pressure of them not fulfiling the exclusive bid option and proof to Fry and the creditors?

When Norway won the Eurovision I couldn't stop thinking how the title of the winning song so applied to Saints supporters over the past few weeks. "Fairytale" is so appropriate, Chorus Saints fans caught up by a fairytale All the rumours have wasted their minds Strung along by a Fairytale. So bad we're running out of time

There has never been any doubt that Leon Crouch is a true fan, just that in the management of the club his heart has resulted in getting the better of his head and judgement. The fact that he is footing the wages bill shows that he is confident of a deal for the purchase of the club going through. What's more I believe he must have some involvement or is backing the Pinnacle bid. Fry would be making contact with other bidders in order to try and broker a deal between various parties joining forces or buying various assets in a combined deal to satisfy the creditors. The Academy, for example, is something that could be sold off separately and be run as a separate entity. It has all the facilities and could function independantly in the way Glenn Hoddle is doing in Spain. Maybe Hoddle or one of his backers is interested in acquiring the Academy. What's important is that Fry is given the time necessary to come up with a good deal that will also see the club, stadium and Academy go forward with strength in future.

According to a friend north of the board this morning Souness is supposed to be heading a consortium about to takeover Rangers. It was on all the Scots radio channels this morning.

Really love it and do agree that the "Northam end" would be far more appropriate. At the same time I've worked out that one can sing the following along to the chorus When the Saints go marchin' in. We all bleed red and white And we sing with all our might When the Saints go marchin' in. Would've won the Eurovision without a doubt and is just the anthem needed to take the club forward....................................if only...????

Just what have things come to? No a single mention about the club or the takeover in any of the Sundays or even online. Just shows that the Echo relies on the false rumours posted on here for a story. Once thing I think that might be holding up things is the fact that SFC must be shown to be a separate entity from the holding company. In drawing up all the contracts, sell off, it must clearly be shown in order to make a successful appeal against the 10 point deduction. Maybe this is the reason for the 500,000 up front to ensure the club is solvent before any sale or takeover.

Starting out from St Mary's, the following footballers are showing the type of fund raising spirit that our own players are sorely lacking. Really makes you think and shows you the shame brought upon our own players at Saints. All our lot can do is mutter pretty words to the media and bugger off on holiday. http://www.thisissussex.co.uk/news/Buxted-footballers-bikes/article-988573-detail/article.html
