I hope it is half that at present but I always was against this happening so expecting that the club would be shaken so every penny could be extracted.

is that fact or guesswork?

As much as it would annoy me it would be a good investment for him.Salz and LC being his tenants now that would tickle him Im sure.

he still is friendly with RL

have you come back just to prove what i said about you.Only here when you are safe and have a bit of swagger.I expect you are about 5' nothing tall with the typical small man syndrome. As for that post it has nothing to do with Pompey and in fact very little to liken them to it. They are truly a big club and the PL are poorer without them, im sure Wigan of the South would not be missed should you go down

if he was holding a vibrator it would be a scottish Westwood

Another new poster pops up, funny as soon as they are safe it comes out of the woodwork.

Rod Stewarts range of "official Rod Stewart panties" emblazoned with red hearts and the words "Isn’t it Romantic". The mega store is going to be interesting next season with his new range of Saints stuff

yep friends aquantences of his as well

Iam more inclined to ML's bid as he is the only 1 there it worryingly seems. Iam only 80% confident he will still be there in a weeks time.Perhaps my enthusiasm for us to survive i have put too much in backing/defending him. Fry has more to lose than myself, i have had all the stick in the past.Fry will have the stigma stuck to him that he rode along for a second time a man who had failed before. He has all the paperwork and facts in front of him and is still said to be talking to him according to the Echo. Lets hope mr A.NOther arrives pretty soon but if he doesnt it was nice knowing you all

Thanks for that Stanley but nobody is using me but myself(and my wife of course)nobody is asking me to say this or that.I get little bits of info from different areas of my life. You know of my profession and it is amazing the people that pass through my door (I dont have a photocopier, lol).Iam in no way saying they are indiscreet of course.A lot of clients surprisingly become friends and they are aware of my football / saints obsession.Most are not at all interested but are hunting shooting fishing people but sometimes comment on our club.

A man who lost £1m on a spin of a roulette wheel does not repect money or the people who are truly suffering.I find it distasteful although Im a capitilist at heart.If he had chosen Saints wit a fraction of that money he would be in the PL. Too many players who are fancty Dans and not enough proper grafters to go with the little skill there.Too many old players on high money, i doubt they will get much for their squad.

I thought he was being interviewed by Sunderland yesterday!!Strachan that is.

Perhaps they speak to people who have integrity and know will not spill the beans.It may be they wish to let people know there are people out there working to try and keep the club alive but dont wish to be named so any information is not Googled or their personal information published on here or be full on in the Echo or media. They might also wish that if they are associated with Mj's bid and it fails they are not hurt by being so.They might be modest, I would expect that if they carry on forward they will be happy for fans to know of them.I expect there is a plethora of reasons.

The quote about putting extra was a little swipe at a promise by a couple of people in the past if you didnt pick it.Nothing to do with anyone in the future.

Im not sure if I have put my post across correctly.I didnt say they would walk away due to what was on here but if a name got out as i asume they want anominity until it is signed and sealed.I assume then if the bid fails they have not been wounded by the failure..who knows

and Neil McCann was seen driving his car south on monday near Cowdenbeath

I only wish we had a consortium of fan investors/businessmen in construction, engineering, housing and perhaps even somebody who had done things in the City, combined with solicitors and accountants.That would do the job. Some may even promise to put some extra money in as well as soon as they get the club.............oh

Yes I realise that. I t would be good not to leytt the buyers know that too soon.Not everybody is aware of what a no win situation being a football club owner is!!!! My friend knew the old chaorman of Borunemouth about 3-4 times ago.He said to him you dont know the feeling you get when just after he had signed a personal cheque to keep the club going and walking out of the ground then to be spat on.

I thought yesterday about those Georgdies who were shown abusing Allardycew and singing you dont know what you are doing.Well if they had kept their nerve they wouldnt be in the CCC now. Also i would never have thoguht that a side with Shearer as maanger would have played with so little passion, as for Dowies credentials as an organiser...their defence!!!

Bournemouth in L2 was £16 last season

No I have not had any warnings of that at all. The same way as any thing is debated on here, in the main it is just a few rabble rousers. A few people in the past thought it was worth putting publisists on here though if not post themselves.The media have been known to get info as well.The majority is nonsense and false rumour and the bits I have heard spoken to me may be as well.I hope I can judge people quite well although none of us are infallible to clever dreamers. Anyway now Fry has stated yet again the next 48 hours we will hold our breath.If MJ's fantacist 11 are sent away with thier tails between their legs and Salz'sboys get the nod we can rally behind them. People just dont sem to be able to absorb the simple concept that as a fan I just want the club to survive and of course in the best shape.If my assessment is right and that Salz's bid may take longer and us not coming out with a CVA we will be in a worse state.Only my opinion though

thats ok Stanley, I know the dangers of trying to put a word in for MJ. Many are now sharpening their knives.I saw when I put up the whisper I had from the club a couple of weks ago about the imminent takeover what backlash I got.

It is not leaked stuff just info that I have heard.I have not stated it is chapter and verse.I am wary of MJ's past debacle and in these most dangerous times where any bid could fail and then we as a club are gone I wish to support the bid i believe is the frontrunner. The bits I have had may well be all fantasist stuff, but wouldnt we all be sick if MJ had really got a deal to save us and then pilloc## who have agandas come on and p### off him or even through 3rd parties unnerve the people behind him.I am supportive as i hate to see people given a kicking when all the time they have invested time and monmey getting something to the table.I try to look at it from my warped logic.MJ has got Fry (who most would accept is a hardened business man)to listen and accept him as a bidder.Now surely to have that happen should show he has some substance somewhere behind him.Fry will look fairly stupid is his company get caught by the same man twice, how would that make them look in the trade and importantly his own ego.Pinnacle I know little of apart from a hastily put together website that had MJ done the same would have been pilloried.MLT's backing gave them lots of kudos. That made the fans believe it was best,they may be right but where has that bid gone? Again i want the best for the club and so my concerns with the Salz bid is that we will get more deductions as they probably not in a position to stop us getting more penalties.As ive said before and now agian i just dearly wish for the club to survive above all else.

we'll be sailing
