At the Forum match I was told that a bunch of saints fans (and some others)put up a sham takeover bid for Leeds. They took it a long way before being found out. Iwonder how much the Leeds fans who were duped feel now.

it depends though doesn't it. if we have a choice of no club or starting at -25 you'd take the big hit. The minus 10 would be a problem but it was not the thing that could stop us getting to the play-offs. the crowds would hit the 22 k mark with a team doing well even in this league. Talk to the Bournemouth directors and they will tell you doing well in the L1 will give you bigger crowds than at the bottom of the Championship. Even without the -10 we wouldnt get guarenteed promotion and so if it really is about the -10 you should inform your people that -10 is not beyond saving and we could make the lucrative playoffs or better if guided correctly. 10 points can be made up, look at Donny who were cut adrift last season and trhey ended up comfortably in mid table well above our points total.

That is a fair point.

Exactly the coffers will be squeezed to right to the last second, and the moment there seens that the meter is full it will be goodnight Saints thanks for the Bentleys...I mean the memories. From my standpoint Fry has/is having an easy ride.Im not sure what could be done to make it harder for him though

lol

you have to laugh as it is comically saints.

what time did you post yours then trousers. May i say for the Swiss to be behind it they would have to have someone in it who lent the money for a deposit to the fall guys.

yep it is an absolute disaster and a right mess Gordon Brown is still running the country

Barcelona, Im not pointing at you as I can't recall your posts on the subject, but I do find it ironic that fans are up in arms about some of the things being said about TL and co, when the absolute appalling accusations that have been made about Mark Jackson.From where i sit it could be that they are both from the same pod.

he only appears when he has the bragging rights.

funniset thing Ive seen on here for ages

lol

attention i expect

I wonder where StMarco is, full of the joys of spring this time last week.

I cant see that is the case but you'd know Ron. The contract can always have its price changed surely

How about this then You want to buy an asset cheap. You realise the adminisrator has little time as it is a football club and the season is due to start. You want to get rid of the competition and so you put up a fall guy to get a exclusivity period and so eat up loads of time.The money paid to get it will be earned back many folds, at the same time the state of the company is seen. You come out of that time and stall for more, this then eats up even more time until it gets to the stage that the administrator takes a massive knock on the price.A valuable asset bought at a snip and the customer base is happy as it looks as though it was to be gone, they are even stupid/desperate enough to stomach a massive point penalty as well, mugs. All fiction and far from the truth as there is no way the people involved would countenance it but if it were pompey!!

not yet, BUT IT IS GETTING CLOSE

the club needed 500k to keep going. It was Frys only way of raising it by granting that.

Fry's not making them pay to see the books now. lol

well give us the facts not hearsay. The only fact i can see is that MLT is happy to be chairman. The multi million pound owner has now become a multi tude and unable/unwilling to put down any money.

Hold on , Im fully aware of our state as a club. The site did not put forward MLT as the face of the bid, the site did not say they had a bidder worth hundreds of millions, this site did not change from a single buyer to a consortium, this site did not push forward the man who is reportedly not superwealthy and added to that this site did not let fans believe that KK may be the manager

Well I asked is it true did the players got stroppy. The answer was no. perhaps a little artistic license by Wotte?

Not as chairman though. He is not nasty enough IMO

with the Swiss franc gaining about 30% on the pound and also us being a snip it is a good time for the Swiss to buy.A positive to consider perhaps

Fry will have to go cap in hand and tell Barclays and Aviva why he f####d up. That will be amusing from my standpoint, he has treied to be smart and at this moment seems to have been too clever for his own good. As I put elsewhere I assume 5m will probably get us this time next week.
