Whatever Um, you're always right. Just can't be bothered any more today. I will re-iterate, if you now want to control SLH and thus SFC there are 2 routes. Via Wilde or Via Lowe all the rest are dead ends. If they don't want to sell then you ain't going to get control. That's it on this subject for today. Have a nice meeting. Just add here that document is very carefully worded. At no time was the impression given that anyone controls in concert or not more than 30% of the total issue.For obvious reasons.

Who from ??? If there were 6 million traceable shares currently for sale, Crouch would have bought them, so would Fulthorpe or whoever. 6 million shares is a 20% or so holding.

Just the cash, stop dreaming about Baird, if Baird comes to us and Surman goes to them we'll end up giving them money. Anyway their supporters aren't fussed about Surman.

A true supporter of SFC who rises above the melee and the playground fighting in the act of supporting his club.A supporter who accepts the fact that just now we're stuck with Lowe,that he's trying to cut costs and get us back on a level keel. That there is no viable alternative. A person who would welcome a takeover but realises that the current bunch of tyre kickers have no money.

Nah Skates will take a dump on them, 5-1 to the Skates.

Well not really, if he says that now the Pompey fans (not being the brightest of individuals) will focus on that and that alone and not his thievery in one of their venerable nightspots last year. He'd probably settle for just being called Scummer reject and not Pikey Scummer tea leaf.

Don't go there Bob, you know he gets tetchy about stuff like that.

I bet Richard Chorley turns up, whether he's a shareholder or not and bogarts the meeting.How do they actually know who's a share holder and who's not. I am but my name isn't on any publically viewable list anywhere.

How about Janet Jackson flashing her tits at the Superbowl

Wave FM apparently

A very salient argument, until you reflect on players like David Prutton and Neil McCann.Acquired for a good few quid, probably no better than a few we'd let go.

Sarwan Singh, about 5% at the height of his activity. A former Southampton resident he's now a farmer in the Punjab. A pure investment, has sold most of his holding but not all. Shifted quite a bit out during PAmania

And not at 12p a share either. If someone wants them they'll have to pay 40p (I bet he's already on a promise from Lowe, well not Lowe, someone else who knows Lowe's brother's, sister in law's housemaid's daughter's stableboy's father -in law)

But we never gave them a chance, that's the problem. I know you can't take risks with untested players in the Prem but to me he was too trigger happy with letting our younger players go, untried and untested. Chala was a decent player, so he didn't understand jock gibberish, so what, loads of others get by in the globalised prem nowadays.

Is Gary Monk not doing a decent job at Swansea?? Is Scott McDonald not playing for Strachan himself at Celtic, Brian Howard, he's dump right?. Now I've not enough temporal knowledge to say whether Strachan let those lads go or not but they were here, they aren't now.

Did Digory Venn do diagrams, I thought he sold reddle (red sheep dye)

Crouch wants total control or nothing, he tried to take it once with some scheme or other.Wilde will never ally himself with Crouch again. Crouch has money,or so they say,why has he never tried to buy outright control? because he knows that withoutout Wilde and without Lowe (by that I mean his axis) it is unacheivalbe. The only way SISU could do it was by diluting the unknown holdings by a restricted rights issue, diluting the holdings of everybody else by creating new shares only accessible to themselves. Wilde obviously feared a similar manoeuvre at some time because when the famous 2 million was in question he stipulated that in the event of any rights issue those 2million would be converted into new shares owned by himself.

You keep right on believing that Wes, it won't work, didn't work before ,won't work now.At best he'll blow the fuse (Jan) which will buy him a bit more time. We'll have worked ourselves into a position where we don't need to sell millions of season tickets, a lot more contracts are up in June, the academy is full of hopefuls. Lowe has just 1 objective this season, survival, he doesn't give a rats arse about the rest.We will survive financially,he will make it so. If we can stay in the CCC there is a whole new gravy train next season. +£3 million in guaranteed extra TV money is worth almost 9000 ST sold to moaning minnies in the stands, he wants that revenue stream,he will take the measures necessary to obtain it,; with or without the fans. Then if you want to see football next season well you'll have to buy a ticket for each match.ST prices will probably be so attractive in March that hardcore fans will fall over themselves to get them. Lowe isn't an amateur, the people organising all these protests probably are.

He wanted to leave,a little bird told me he was openly setting up a move to the Gulf even last January at the African Nations Cup. He was talking to anyone with a silver dollar and a team in any hotel in wherever it was. In fact after their opening day victory most of Morocco's squad were doing that and only that.

When blokes like Lowe take over something it doesn't get untaken over for buttons and peanuts, which is about all we've ever learnt from the whole Crouch+Wilde charade.They thought they could ride into town with a couple of beer bottle caps in their saddlebags (albeit 4 million or so) sweet talk a few people in the saloon and run the show. Didn't work Never works on Al Swearengen in Deadwood either.

Wotton is a bit of a crude hacker though, need to drop down another division for his type of football to be acceptable. Seth Johnson , good player, money went to his head though, got into gambling or something didn't he (don't they all) I fact real badass players who have a modicum of talent are now few and far between,which is why Utd and Liverpool pay fortunes for blokes like Vidic and Scholes still gets a game at his advanced age.

Publicly Askham,Withers,Windsor Clive,Cowan, Inheritors of Tony Dye,perhaps Richards,whoever Tom Scott sold the 550K shares he took off Lowe's Old Man and probably a bit from Singh as well to(nobody probably, probably just buried in an offshore maze) Marland is mixed up in there somewhere, other "business associates" of Lowe and or any of the bunch named above, Lowe's family, their family, family's of all of aforenamed etc etc.Don't forget the rights issue wasn't fully taken up by the "rightees".A lot probably got spirited away into dark dank places where no-one would ever think of looking for them. Singh has cashed in who know where those 4.62% went etc etc.

Yep but he won't. When Crouch tried to usurp control back in July 2007 who did he try and put in as Chairman, yep Paul Thompson (or is it Thomson) now where does he fit into the puzzle, underwrote the rights issue, sold out to Wilde, kept a few shares and then Crouch tries to resuscitate him for no apparent reason rather than say a figurehead like Mike Richards or even Mary Corbett.

Because they KNOW that it makes no f*cking difference. They know the workings and mechanics of the PLC. Did someone not say after seeing the books and all the kerphumph that there are unfathomable mechanisms in place. LLS perhaps or St David, idiots yes, but knowledgeable idiots all the same.
