It is shame about the row because the investment is probably the best thing ML and NC have done after buying Rickie Lambert. Getting top class youngsters in and developing them is very important to the future of the club

I am very sorry but I disagree with you ML bought the club plus the stadium at a knock down price and is a very good investment. I agree that there are more people watching as we are winning matches and scoring goals

Seems they were a little niave then? I dont see it is a banning issue in the least

But past his best when he arrived at St Mary's He cost Ipswich £500000 and played a lot in the Premiership

What are they banned for Not turning up for a meeting or publishing material that I already new about. By the way I thought all publicity was good publicity. Also the good news about the investment seems to have been lost in this apparent small minded row

I agree but why ban the Echo thats what I cannot understand. Most things are known before they are officially announced

I agree but I am only commenting on what I have read in the press and on the Internet . If SFC contradict what has been said or written then that is another question but at the moment they have not

I dont disagree with what you are saying but I just think that there is a bit too much hero worshiping with regard to the new regime thats all. Yes Rickie Lambert is doing well but as yet he not my Idol , Terry Paine is the best footballer I have seen playing for the Saints

Surely the £3 million had to found from somewhere to pay the banks so the club now has more money to invest in players. Or is that too simplistic

Yes I agree money is ruining Football for a lot of Fans including us in the past nothing really to do with the Persons test possibly

As the forum is here posters respond thats all If the Forum was not here people would not comment and respond to others. Some are probably fed up with God like attitude towards ML and NC who like Lowe are only trying to make a bit of money and enjoy themselves. I am pleased that they are here but anybody owning the club with no debt should be able to run it well especially with the large and supportive Fanbase in League 1

Better than Pompey perhaps?

He may well be a scouser but Newcastle is about 180 miles from Liverpool. But as he has played for us and Bristol Rovers I dont think he can play for another team this season

Must admit I did not think the editor came over as bitter and pompous. Seemed a reasonable explanation to me. But of course it may not be the full story although a lot of Italians are sometimes thought to be pompous and act like Prima Donnas but I dont know if NC fits this description

I noticed this from the article In his first season with the Saints, Davies scored an incredible 43 goals. I wonder how many Rickie Lambert is going to score in his first season?

Ignorance of the current owners probably

With no debt I feel the future is bright

Having no debt and being a big club in League 1 helps a bit

Exactly it was for the year 2009 not the decade Still dont understand how Giggs won

Yes I agree but I think Perry maybe rested

I dont think it is possible to get a balanced view as both the Echo and SFC have different views. I would just be interested to know what proportion of people think it is OK to ban the press.

I would be interested in a Poll as to whether Cortose was right or wrong to ban the echo

Totally agree probably fixed by the Man U supporters

Totally agree it really is over the top sometimes especially as the only positive attribute ML has is loads of dosh

Yes he scored the winner yesterday could be in the Premiership next season
