You can get tickets in West Quay, but at the Mayflower kiosk not the Saints shop.

How much is their annual budget? If I'm reading this correctly, the budget for 2009-10 is £179,000,000. So it's about 5% of the annual budget. http://www.southampton.gov.uk/Images/Conservative%20budget%20resolution%20appendices_tcm46-222240.pdf Of course, I may have read that file wrong......

Southend is where the admins come from isn't it?

Surely now would be a good time for some of our celebrity fans to step up to the plate? Coldplay could do a few nights gratis at the stadium, would raise a hefty chunk. Maybe Craig David could support. These people say they are fans, now's the time to prove it.

A new league that just happened to have all the same teams as the old one? Of course it was a rebranding.

Really?

What other clubs have our administrators dealt with? Their most recent example given is Bournemouth, which doesn't exactly fill me with confidence. Their top man is Krasner isn't it, who made a right mess of Leeds.

Yeah it was the same 4 people on both boards.

If we stayed up, but by less than ten points, they'd be deducted at the end of this season. If we go down anyway we'll get the deduction next year.

Bloody Solent. Obviously think their listeners would rather hear M People.........

If the football club is still trading as usual, then presumably it still has it's directors in place?

I wish there was a mod around to close threads such as this and make sure everyone posted on the discussion thread.

They make a point of saying SFC is unaffected, but then the administrator goes on to state: Slightly contradictory.

Is this a new ITK thing?

Have you guys ever heard of PM's?

Not in our country, Alps.

The one Um Pahars mentioned is the bloke who bought Ipswich, Marcus Evans.

What Evans bloke?

Are you starting to remember why you don't post very often these days Minty?

I don't suppose his digital camera could have an effect on his views of how good he is at art could it? If he's comparing what he is a capable of to his photographs, that could lead him to think he isn't very good?

If things are as bad as is now being publicised, does it not seem a little strange that we didn't raise any funds by selling Lallana, Surman etc in January? The BBC are saying our overdraft was slashed by Barclays in October, so this has been brewing for a while.

Do you have other items of clothing which you keep for special 'home use'?

No.

Hope the Echo recorded the conversation.

Problem is it's not a business decision is it. It may all be above board from a legal point of view, but the FA make the decisions. If they think we've tried to avoid punishment they'll still hit us with penalties.
