He is rightly or wrongly in the top 2.If this site was going during the branfoot years then without a doubt in my mind Askham was.

quote from Wes Tender; 'Have we really found some common ground that unites nearly all of the fan base? Perhaps we should make this the subject of a separate thread, investigate the opinions of others and hold a poll on it. If that poll proves overwhelmingly that the mood of the fan base is that all of those with historic associations with the club as major shareholders are not allowed a seat on the board, then we can face those board members past and present and demand that they step aside to make way for independent replacements.e way the fans can unite again? [end quote] I myself have problems with many of the people who have played a part in the clubs demise.All the people who were involved(profitted) in the reverse takeover to now need to be gone if we are ever going to get unity. I dont wish to see RL gone and then the same old faces still feeding from the trough

I was told from someone at the club that to go into administration in time to get it all done to get the 10 point penalty this season it would have to be by the 26th Feb.That was by someone who would not be in the higher echelons of the club but may well of heard it from someone who was.I suspect people at the club do look at these things and so the staff who would be rightly worried ask the question.

Im sre there would have been many who would have vted for that and many would have donated a big bomb also

So you muddled up Lowe and Hone. Lol and then come on and sermon us about questioning the wording and events that happened.Give us a break

All in all it seems that the wording was not quite 100% (no shame there) and that the majority of fans seem to wish the departure of all the main parties involved in the club. Jonah and Duncan have united the fanbase

What a smashing idea that was.If the kids can be brought up to understand it is all a nonsense it can only be good.I myself take the mickey out of Pompey but I dont have a deeep hatred of them as we are all from Hampshire. I didnt see the footnote that after the victory the Pompey fans smashed their town up

Duncan thankyou for clarifying that and a very good post that was more statesmanlike than biased. I may point out that the whole thread came about IMO due to the fact the words 'physically threatened' were used.That was of course behaviour that none of us could accept. Im glad that whilst you have not said the word 'physically' was not used you have withdrwn it from this piece.I will take it that it was not said and perhaps put up unadvisidly without really thinking about how it could be taken. Im glad you are still the clubs historian and still work promoting the history we are proud of. I wish for the whole directors box to be changed, not 1 gone but all gone including the people who have overseen the clubs direction for 30 years, without exception unless a damned good reason is put forward why not.

Farcical. A representative of the Trust and a couple of Labour MP's. It sounds like the cast of the Wheeltappers and Shunters club. The club has set its course we now have to sit back and see what transpires.it would be madness to change it course at this time. Too many egos are involved and so until we get 1 person fully in charge we have to go on as we are.

I did say that Duncan is entitled to his opinion in my post. Perhaps Duncan does not care about being even handed and so has nailed his flag to the mast.What Iam suggesting is that if RL does not go as quickly as some think then perhaps all parties will be hurt.RL probably doesnt give a tinkers about having pictures of former heroes up, and Duncan doesnt want to sit in the same room but I myself would like a good museum at the club for fans to visit and perhaps if RL realised what an asset that would prove to be he may be more interested in having one. I get the impression after a conversation over the wek end that Rl is going to go the distance and so somethig has to give.A 3 year plan was mentioned and this is only the first.

NC Iam not siding with Duncan on this as i was very perturbed by his statement.I just wish that the club could use his knowledge and contacts to provide a proper museum that embraces our history.I went on the stadium tour a fews years back was surprised that there were no pictures etc of Big Ron, Paine etc and even earlier players.Obviously LM 's shrine has been taken down but it is something that both sides should call a truce on. Duncan perhaps needs to understand that his position with the fans will be jeopodised long term if he does not become more even handed. Yes he believes that RL should go and that is his right but perhaps should also understand that there are many decent Saints fans who do not agree with that and dont like him using his position of respect to try and turn the arguement, sometimes to the hurt of the club. I recall when the Wilde bunch came on the scene and he posted about how he had been treated by RL. I noticed a massive turn around and doubt by fans who were undecided at that time. We all know what happened when they got their way and perhaps put the club back a further 3 years.

Ive seen some real s#### at SMS this season but he beats the lot.I suspect BTF was wetting her knicks at him being there.No doubt she arranged for his visit.

i think he still is. the club use his knowledge and contacts and he gives good value for the very little he gets back.That may well have changed recently and i may add Duncan is very happy to help fellow fans to source info.I myself was grateful when he put me in contact with somebody when i was trying to find out when the RAF dog team and the policeman incident happened. He is a passionate Saints fan and whilst we dont see eye to eye on the politics of the club and some of his outbursts I respect him a great deal. I believe his passion for the club allows him to become misguided by people who should know better. The sooner RL understands what an asset his knowledge and contacts are and a proper Saints museum is set up the better.

I really think that Duncan just worded it slightly wrong and i do understand why he doesnt wish to name places.Although we do know it came from MC herself, perhaps in hios enthusiasm to get across his point he may have made a mistake citing MC, and so perhaps she may not wish for this to be mentioned as it might make her look weak, although I somehow doubt she is in any way, just well meaning.

1965 i know ou have major issues with Lowe but I doubt if any other player had intimidated MC I doubt it would have been put up on here.Do not tell me that LM is any way any less intimidatingand perhaps MC would not risk upsetting him either.

if she was from Pompey she would have more of her teeth strung through her necklace than still in her mouth.

did you also see he said some of the big car companies should be allowed to fail so that they get new greener products coming through.Says the man who owned an airline company and interested in buying a formula ! racing team.Lol

this is a LOL thread.Last season i fielded loads of fans ire as they were complaining about Gb changing the side and now we have won a game playing well fans are suggesting doing so.

Im sure he can, it is the 'physically intimidating'that I was alarmed at especially to a woman.Many said that MC should be chairman ,well that would be a misjudgement as LM and LC are very intimidating characters as well, and if she can't handle RL then Im sure those 2 would be harder to. Mc has the club interests at heart as she she sees it, sitting in roads and stopping people going about their business is not the best thought out plan of attack and os perhaps her judgement is not right.

What thread did you ask me that! I didnt seei t and will answer best i can. You may question me all you wish and of course I will not reveal any of the sources I have. If you can't live with that put me on ignore Im sure many have. I only get snippets and can confirm the above to the best of my knowledge.Wotte took a back seat when Jan was in charge and rightly Jan was left to be his own man. It has been stated by others they had never worked together before and allegedly didnt get on that well. what he did all week (Ihavent asked that question) i assume is to work with the reserves and youth.I really dont know.You have to understand that I just dont call people up to ask questions to put up on here!!! I have a life and so do my firends.Also they have to be guarded what they say as the last thing they need is to be pulled over the coals due to geeks like us on the internet. I also heard from another trusted friend that RL has a 3 year plan.the first is to stabilise the club, the 2nd year to consolidate and the third year is to push on and go for promotion. That means he is expecting to stay, administration may be avoided and the push for promotion should be for the PL not to get out of L1!!!!

i have grasped examples out of the air with no knowledge of the true source, just like you did.I just dont make out that they are fact.

I understand Trousers but after decades of us only winning in the medias mind as the opposition were off colour or having a bad day, I get a bit tetchy

So you are saying she no more or no less that she never said Physically. Thankyou that is a relief.
