Dont you go on and on about it Ron. i heard you the first time
-
that is a good observation

Wotte walks away after missing out on the if Carlsberg did managers contract
-
I never have said RL didnt have a big part to play in our demise but i wouldnt accept it was all down to him. A subtle difference. As for the car thing you are not who I thought you might be then
-
you'll all be kissing his feet and singing his name when we escape from the drop. But that is funny.
-
As far as i can assertain we do not have a coach at the club who is a chester fan, if we do they have kept it quiet

It was a gamble and was IMO a major part in where we find ourselves today. I agree with Umps stance that it was due to our relegation that is why where we are but from my standpoint, you react to the current conditions, we had gone down due to a catelogue of errors by RL /squad/managers but when the decision was made to spin the wheel the people in charge knew the financial problems we were up against and the consequences if it went wrong. In a funny kind of way RL has been made a mug of by MW and the rest as he came back and will forever be the one who most will point thir finger at and the people who did the reclkless mistakes IMO can sit back and let RL take the flak.

Ginge as i told you the other day I know Totton quite well and Tanyas (chopsticks) Station road is the best chinese takeaway around IMO. Ps do you drive an old Jag/bentley?

I read that and couldnt be bothered to pull him up on it

I had the impression it is very difficult to get money out of South Africa

The difference between Lowe / Wilde and Crouch
OldNick replied to alpine_saint's topic in The Saints
Crouch and LM calling for support is likely to get some positive reaction RL doing the same would only prevent us selling more tickets. Surely LC etc should say look RL is no longer here come on back and join us again. -
Hes not buying us is he?
-
we need to led from the land of despair into a feeling of hope. I really do worry we are just going to have more of the same but without the revenue streams that the stadium gave in the summer months and at other times due to conferences etc.
-
it is also a lazy aguement to say NP got promotion as he is brilliant and not look at the underlying facts.He didnt have to cull the CCC squad on relegation as the chairman picked up the bill, add to that he was supported in getting some good loans in from the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool. Yes he has done well but on a decent budget, it has nothing to do with defending RL it is down to the fact that he was well supported and also his own attributes. Please tell me if things had gone t###s up on the last day of last season when it was not in our hands would you still have thought he was a great manager, he was a lcuky manager at that time and that is a good attribute

Im trying to look forward not back.We are now at a stage where we have no choice who runs our club (not that I have ever had a choice) .We have to accept that unless we get a football fan who wants to throw some money at us and not have to worry we will have a business first owner/owners again. This is something the fans will have to come to terms with. Surely we are not that cursed that we have another ceo that divides us much again.
-
After the last 10 years of debating the rights and wrongs of the owners wanting to make profits and the CEO's etc getting dividends, would the fans now accept that the club's owners can take a decent profit and that it is not run for football only. It just seems to me we are going to be cut and shut and only taken on if we can be a juicy investment. I myself understand some profit should go to shareholders etc but will the wider fanbase now fall in line . Of course I dearly hope we get a proper benefactor who doesnt look for profit but IMO the way things have gone we are going to get more of the same.

Mandaric is a lucky Lowe, both like their faces in the media and also sack the manager at teh drop of a hat. I saw an interview on Sky news and it was stated 10m this season and when asked who funded it he said nobody else.he also was in the Mail a few weeks ago stating he had bankrolled them over 8m this season. Of course it would not be transfer budget bit include keeping the high wage earners, look at our club losing 40+k a week after taking big slashes at the budget and so 10m goes nowhere with a big set up.
-
I remember him elbowing a saints player on the half way line on the East stand and the ref missing it when he played for SW.
-
Mandaric has put £10m into Leicester this season.I sugest had the majority of clubs in the CCC done so this season many would get into the playoffs or better.To inject that into L1 and auto promotion should be attained.That is not a criticism of NP but it did help his situation.
-
Now now Mick i know where you are coming from but..it is set up for him to score the goal to keep us up
-
well I doubt we can afford him either

A percentage of protesters go to maim and cause destruction. if a policemen had been seperated however good or bad a copper he was he would have taken a severe beting or worse. Yes people have a right to protest but many live to bring our society down. I didnt see many people complaining when the countryside march turned into the police beating up a load of the marchers that day. Country peope wishoing to uphold their life . As for the man who died , it was pointed out that he may well have received his internal injuries by someboidy giving him resusitation, if his spleen or liver was enlarged that could have been the reason.We have to wait and see. the oliceman hittng him was uncalled for and he should be punished.The woman well....
-
After saturday and the manager basically accepting relegation then i doubt we will top 20-22k. I hope Im wrong.If Barnsley lose we can still stay up and I have stupid hope left that there is a sting in the tail and we get out of it...I have to go now and have a lie down after such a stupid idea
-
A great idea and will look forward to buying one. I'll give £100 towards the costs of producing it if you wish Daren. Pm me if you so wish to take up the offer.
