Finance director Dave Jones time to collect your P45 time, we hope.

 

I really don't see the obsession with hoping someone loses his job. I don't know how culpable for the mess we've been in Dave Jones is, and I suspect you don't either.

 

Fundamentally the failure of Southampton Football club came about because of failure on the pitch, not on a spreadsheet governing compliance with FRS10.

One man losing his job is another man gaining his job. The latter starts with the confidence of those appointing him, the former has lost it.

According to Wikipedia the Liebherrs are German and moved their businesses to Switzerland for tax reasons. And does this mean that the Germans, who know how to win the occasional shoot out , might want the greatest penalty taker of all to join the band? Step forward MLT...

but nothing new really. It is as if the time between now and the takeover being completed is continually halving....which means it will disappear into infinity without ever quite getting there. It is always these "last minute unforeseen hitches with third parties......" etc etc. The comparisons with buying or selling a house are uncanny.

my last remaining nagging worry is if any of the dark forces try to put a spanner in works tonight!! I wonder what these last minute hitches with third parties were this afternoon that stopped deal being completed today!!??

 

Hopefully my fears will be totally unfounded and we will be swiss tomorrow morning!!

 

as someone said earlier, we are Saints after all!

I am one of the biggest pessimists i know but i do think we may start to look for things that arent there until the signature goes on the contract.

 

They hung around waiting for 4 weeks whilst Pinnacle were assing about....they aint gonna drop it all now at the 11th hour.

 

Roll on tomorrow :)

Says who?

 

Daily echo

 

'The money behind the deal is believed to be from a relative of Swiss billionaires Willi and Isolde Liebherr but at this stage there are no plans for the new owner to appear at a press conference tomorrow.'

Well, i have read into it a little, as in, i read it as the new owner may not appear at 'the' press conference tommorow.

 

Something about straws and clutching probably
