half time entertainment could be fun though, more hookers than at a rugby convention

can you give us any clues CM?

'the Clubs best interests at heart.' sorry but letting us fold is not exactly in the clubs best interests I would have thought.

they are queing up to get the praise. The person who did give the info has not tried to get the credit as being respected, but to be fair i doubt he'd want that from me, but a bit of stick

Is it Leon??? We already knew he was putting money up and the bbc had called it Crouch's Pinnacle group recently.To be fair if he coughs up he is a top man.

I have had a message from a respected poster on here who has been told that no wages today and there will be another meeting tomorrow morning.I have not contacted any body I know to check but i would not doubt the credibility of the person who past the info on.

Too long, can Fry risk them not paying up.It is getting more messy

it was a shock today. i might be albe to talk later but by then we hope all has been sorted

they dont know when they will be paid.I can only contact them so many times and lunch is over.

StW they would have needed them to go in last night for them to be paid this morning as per normal

Art is that fact or just a guess?

i hope both sets of lawyers are making up a statement that lets both sides have a get out. It cannot be either parties interest to let us fold. The FL need us and vice versa, i hope sense prevails. Pinnacle will come out of it well as they tried and the FL have shown steel. Lets hope there is an angle that can be found to allow this

the inside track as you put it is they are very unhappy and worried for their futures. i worry as I may not have my hobby/pastime they worry as they may not have a house. I seriously believed you knew more than you patently do and tried to quell their concerns, I have since had to let them know 'it was all a laugh'

Very fair. I have gained confidence today strangely enough. Pinnacle must be there oe there abouts, the biggest worry of course is that they have not committed to the wages HMRC and bonuses, that would be the final bit that would say 'we will be doing it'

I see, if only I hadnt had read about it first when it was splashed over the back of the nationals- Foxy is Hunted, and Lets Sheik hands in Dubai, I may have been less dismissive of your undoubted skills. As i take your post as a grovelling apology I will forgive on this occasion.I dont want it to be seen as a weakness, even Ronaldo is replaceable. BigDave would still be welcome to join the fold, a big step up for him of course, not of that pre match stretching but straight into kicking it hard as he can in the direction of the goal. Look forward to getting our rightful revenge, im sure Phil is procuring the next ref right at this moment

OSM, I have a few good friends at the club and they are living this out in real life, i do hope your optimism that I forwarded to them earlier does have some substance.

1 step up at a time Big Dave join the footballing side of the Forum game and you wil be fed a stream of glorious chances to make a name for yourself. The9 and BigDave as a forward pairing, Griffo as the pace, Influenced in the middle and DrogBaj as the kitman. In fact Foxy (who is very shallow and bug#ered off to Dubai first chance he had) will be spending most of the game retrieving his shots from the Itchen (river not Stand) and so there is plenty of room in the team.

that is true Ginge, but I doubt it is a good start when you want to get on his good side, perhaps they are trying to pee him off

I as always support the club, just because a steward gives me a funny look or the chairman is not what I want it doesnt stop me supporting the team and club.Of course it was obvious things were bad, you dont think we all knew playing the kids was likely to end in disaster? no in the main the fans standing at the ground who actually got offtheir ars## supported the team. It didn't work but at least we tried. The reason we had to play those kids was because relegation cost us a massive part of our income. Now with thiose conditions you cut your cloth accordingly, well not us no we get a new crowd in who spent more than we could afford and then didnt make the correct cuts to make us stable again. I want Pinnacle to win the day, not as Im impressed with TL but because they are the closest to being able to save us. Iam perturbed that with all the transparency at the front we do not know who is behind them. Since TL has been on Sky I have been more confident they will win, i dont know why but there is something that makes me belive it will happen with them. I will support the club whoever is in charge , i wouldnt be happy if RL was behind any consortium and that would make me have to make my hardest decision but I wish for the club to be saved, period

Reading what TL has said has made me slightly more confident not less so. Iam going potty

Would Pinnacle put Mr instead of Lord?? i doubt it

Is that allowed in this day and age? I would have thought that there will be some obscure European law that could mean us getting an injunction granted to stop all fixtures being played until...Now that would make us popular. Did he say he wouldnt buy the club until the FL had waived the contract?

isnt it a classic case of the Emperors new clothes, nobody wanted to offend the King

i thought the wages were going to be paid today...make your mind up OSM

Lol, obviously have hit a nerve. You are correct the fans didnt vote for administration and nor did the club it was barclays who decided not to back us anymore.Their timing was very unfortunate. The club rolled the roulette wheel and unfortunately it went wrong. I may also like to point out self righteously that i moaned about us doing that as well. The fans do not deserve what is happening and the many who devote their lives home and away to the club as well as the staff must be hurting more than I can say.
