I do hope you arranged a decent commission for that Gm

I understand that FF, lets hope we dont have to call International Rescue then, Thunderbirds are gooooo...phut phutt phutt... oh bu#### Joking aside though nobody has come back and countered how much it would take MJ to get to the stage he did.Afterall Fry would be in contact with him and lawyers up to that stage. Surely you just cant get so deep just giving him a ring now and again without expensive corporate lawyers not been instructed??

im sure there have been worse punishments gven out for the same thing in the past.

No I dont think it works quite like that.The others would not be able to hand over a non refundable deposit but would be able to invest for their cliens.I think that is how it works

! thing that I havent seen posted elsewhere.Frys statement said an undisclosed deposit had been paid, and so now the wages would be paid.I wonder if people took it as 500k and that wasn't the case. It doesnt matter but to give a 500k non refundable deposit is hell of a risk just to look at the books.Its like having to pay £200 to get the chance to check over a 3 piece suite you atre interested in.

if you read the item, 1 of the consortium have massive liquid funds. He was to pay the cash deposit.

its the FL they make it up as they go along, why did it take until now for them to realise????

do you not see the irony in that.Not that I doubt Pinnacle but if MJ had no previous it would be the same deal.

for us to get a decent fee for him 2m will be required I would have thought.To take £1m less the add ons and it is not much for him.Did he score more than Earnshaw last season?

I agree Alps, I have great love for the club but didnt make calls or get off my a### and try to do something about it.Im as culpable as anyone on here for doing that, but to be fair I respect anybody who is trying to save the club and hope MJ and Salz are not too much out of pocket trying to do so.

they can read your car number plate from so high up, but couldnt see Bin Laden escape on a donkey so how do you think they will see a Airbus

DT you know what i think of your opinions of footballers abilities after your bits about KD. I assume you want him gone as well! In fact that is not a question as i know you would

of course if LC had not backed MW we would not have gone on the spending spree and might not gone into administration. We may have had a more considered approach to spending and utilised Blackstock etc a bit more , it is all guesswork.

I would suggest that the new bid if Pinnacle failed would be a lot lower due to timescales.Lets not thing about it.

Hold on, even Pinnacle have had people let them down. We have the best bet taking us forward lets just be happy with that

You are probably right and lets just hope we never need to find out for sure. Iam still of the belief that there was more to the group than just his bluff.Again I say just how much does it cost to play his game?

doesnt make him blameless though Alps and perhaps was the biggest after relegation.

I understand that MrG but if we do need him , we will be praying that he isnt all talk.Surely if the fans have faith that Fry thinks it was worth talking to him that he must have something more than just talk.I do hope so if all else fails.Not that it will but it is good to have plenty of bakup if all else fails. I also believe it is an expensive way to get your picture in the papers, if he is all bluff he would be into his fantasy by at leat 10k

I recall when I was just 9 or 10 and going to the dell car park hoping to get some players autographs of any saints player.Pat Earles or Dennis Hollywood would be as great a catch as Big Ron or Mick Channon. Id cut out pictures of the players from the Echo and then wait in excitement who would sign them.I didnt care when I got home with my brother and dad was there who was then was cutting about their abilities.That didnt effect my worship and admiration.I suspect your youngster will hold the memories of the crowds the excitement and even unwrapping his Yorkie or Kitkat and the result willbe dimmed with the youthful anticipation that 'next time dad they will win.'

MrG I think you should perhaps wait for the deal to be fully signed before having a go at MJ. If you read it he says he will make contact gain with Fry if Pinnacle fails. Now whilst i understand your reservations IF and it is unlikely would we be a bit stupid to then be in a position to say we dont want his consortium to buy.We now know a bit mote of his backers.

well it was a bloody big misjudgement. It cost him millions so he was punished.

If he hadnt have backed MW originally he would not had to. He fell for it and we are now where we are. Anyway lets try and forget the wounds of then and get back to supporting the club

Perhaps but only on the margins.He does deserve more credit than the others but he was part of the big problem although I do think he did it in the best intentions

a friend whose sons were performing all spurs fans wanted to perform to try and save the club.He said to me 'how can the people of southampton let this die?' i shook my head and was embarrassed to tell him that we were apathetic and perhaps complacent somebody would step in. It was sad to see so few turn out when people who had organised and performed put so much effort into it. At least I met a few faces on here... GKTurner for the first time and remeeting some of the stars from my side in the forum match.

Living in Austria has made you a bit of a Fascist Alps...'you will obey my commands and shut the f### up' not following orders are you? LC your leader did some good things for us and does care but he isnt whiter than white in our fall. I want us to have a completely new start under fresh people with none of the past there to divide.
