Beause SFC is heading for administration like Coventry was and this is how it works. Does Lowe put the club into admin and have this on his CV or does he do the sensible thing and give his shares away for a nominal fee? Customers of W H Ireland would certainly raise their eyebrows if Lowe took option 1.... The same applies to all the other major shareholders. They'd be ostracised from business if they didn't act responsibly.

Rubbish, of course there's an alterntive, but sadly Lowe and Wilde are more interested in themselves.

All Lowe and his cronies need to do is give their shares away. We won't get a billionnaire, but we'll be financially better of than the status quo.

HA HA, you and Scooby are deluded.

Given that W H Irealnd has underperformed the FTSE 100 by 18% in the last 12 months and is down 44% over the 12 months i'd say Lowe is rather reeved at present by his investments performances.

Why would anyone offer Wilde any more than a nominal fee? I certainly wouldn't, so hard headed businessmen won't. If there is anyone out there interested they are holding all the aces.

SFC may well be for sale, but it's not worth buying. SFC might not even be worth buying for £1 because all you're buying is debt. The situation is probably so dire the only way out is for our debts to be cleared through administration.

If we continue with 15,000 gates i think Lowe and Wilde will have to give the club away before the season is through as we cannot operate with such a **** poor revenue. I think this is what Fulthorpe is waiting for.

Yeah i do think staying away is the most effective protest against Lowe. Yes i am prepared to sacrifice the club to admin on the way.

Verbal Kint is right in what he says. Lowe undoubtedly has a negative effect on home gates. I'm at the point where i will not go to a home game, or buy anything from the club shop because i genuinely despise the man so much.

"We won't get into politics or confidential details but we can keep supporters informed." So that basically means Micheal Wilde won't be answering points about the board. Wilde is a full member of this site and has had ample opportunity to respond to concerns that directly involve him. He chose not to. He also had the opportunity to for an open interation with fans via the SOS initiative. He demanded that things be kept private and then lied to Andrew Cowen about what the SOS people said, i.e that they wanted him back as chairman. He also championed the Saints Trust and promised a fan on board. He has not delivered on his promise and there's no sign he will (i'm not suggesting he's wrong to have done a typical Wilde U-turn, i'm pointing out the fact he's not honoured a promise). He was also given the opportunity to attend the Solent Forum. He didn't bother attending. Why should anyone believe this is not yet another example of a Wilde publicuty stunt? It's just so typical of Wilde and i for one think it should be treated with the contempt it deserves. A stage managed and selective publicity stunt is what it looks like to me.

It's not gonna happen. Derby will hammer us today and break the hoodoo in style.

What price can i get on a Derby win?

Travel Republic is good for accomodation, but book your flights separately. Easyjet have just started flying in to Reina Sofia airport and are a bit cheaper than Monarch.

I'd be interested to know if they'd offer us support again next season in the likely event of relegation.

Don't shoot the messenger but Dave Merrington and several unknowns hired out a private funtion room at the De Vere last night.

Get real. John Major is the reason we're doing so well. Can you work it out?

I always chat with them and try to convert them to atheism.

If you think it's bad now just wait until we lose to Derby. If you think that's bad imagine us losing against Blackpool. It would not surpise me if we did.

Where's your sidekick Sundance Beast gone?

Rupert Lowe and Andrew Cowen.

Derby 4 - 0 Saints

1. PS was the cheap appointement? Then how come we had to pay compo to Plymouth and then Lowe did his usual trick of packing him off with a lucrative NDA. That said i can quite believe Lowe appointed him with the intention of sacking him. Much like with Nigel Pearson Lowe simply couldn't allow anyone else to take his limelight. 2. I don't recall fans pressuring for Paul Sturrocks removal? 3. LMAO. Why are the pro-Lowe supports so quiet away from the internet. Do you all need mummy to hold your hand to speak out in public? 4. The SW appointment was Lowe getting his own way and doing the cheap option because he'd blown a shed load on Sturrocks NDA.

Lowe should come out and say the following. "Me and Mike have come back because the club is on it's last legs and we want to asset strip like **** in the hope of getting our money. There are investors waiting in the wings, but they want our shares for nothing. As Chairman of the PLC and on behalf of the noddy football chairman we appeal to all fans to support what we are doing beause we are far more important than Southampton Football Club"
