Who appoints the manager and agrees wages with the new players I wonder

I hope it goes ahead

Yes good point

I dont disagree that Crouch has/is/was trying to help the club but sometimes I think his judgement is not good as you say he acts as a fan Perhaps the Swiss bid was the best one in the first place thats all By the way who is Rupert?

If he did put his money in it may have stopped the Swiss from making a bid that is my point. But I dont know if and why he put 500K in

If he was mislead it was not the first time that it has happened to him. But lets wait and see who actually paid the £500K

I agree the only thing he has said which makes sense is MLT's involvement. TL keeps using the word professional which makes thinks he is floundering and trying to justify his actions But like another poster I am not sure whether MLT has the attributes for a football chairman. If Pinnacle do go through with the deal I will be surprised but delighted and give them my full support

Although I tend to agree with what you are saying has your point actually been stated by anyone in the know to be the real stumbling point with Pinnacle.

Update now on OS http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10280~1703627,00.html

Does it matter really how much he has as long as he buys the club and gets in good players something he said would happen during his SKY interview. We obviously may need more money later but we are in at least Div 1 or Div 2 for two or three years

Please could you explain what you find unbelieveable or are you bitter and twisted that you cannot accept that other people have different views to you.

I am not really sure what I am really saying. SFC is your club and my club and everyone else's who is a fan I just dont like the idea of someone like Loads of Money Crouch lording over us and possibly thinking how great I am saving the club. I dont want SFC to end either as I have been supporting them for nearly 50 years. But today it is difficult to believe that SFC is the club Ted Bates grew and I have supported for such a long time

I think he said It's Much More Important Than That

Sorry I dont agree.

I am quite happy for Leon to spend his money on SFC but would not so happy for Leon to be running the club as supporters usually get too emotionally involved .

According to another thread UM is doing it for a valid reason but I am sceptical

Yes thank you my thoughts too. Do other non Premiership clubs have large debts on Stadiums which they need to service like Derby On the other point I reserve judgement as you just appear to be throwing petrol on a burning fire

Yes I think you have a point there. I was expecting to read a sensible post from UM on the subject

or left

If the rumour is continually discussed it does not mean it is true in anyway

As we were a cash strapped club perhaps we did not have the financial income to be a Premiership club

Well I thought that would be obvious what is the point of not getting behind the new regime.

So we still dont know how long this bid process is going to take do we?.
