Viking Warrior Posted 4 September, 2010 Share Posted 4 September, 2010 According to the Echo SISA and its committee have resurrected itself with MIck Callaghan as chairman. Mr Chorley and Mcmillan have been out of the lime light for too long and are no doubt envious of Take That reforming Theyapparrently reforming to protest against the sacking of AP and also NC's running of the club according to other reports. Will there be calls for fans to boycott the stadium and asking season ticket holders to throw their ticket in the waste bucket. Oh the good old days There you are Alps go and join them Im sure they will welcome you on to their committee they need people like you with ultra extreme negatives views of the club.

Block 5 Posted 4 September, 2010 Share Posted 4 September, 2010 I think Alps has been broadly supportive of NC and the club; lay off. As for Chorley & co......... they can do one, as far as I'm concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as Alpine can be annoying he is the exact opposite of these people he totally supports NC. Plus throw my season ticket away! I has to scrimp and save for that I'd rather go through watching **** at st Marys every week than throw it away. Even if Saints never win another match at least I get a couple of hours off her in doors every couple of weeks thats worth its weight in gold.

eastleighhalo Posted 4 September, 2010 Share Posted 4 September, 2010 Protest about Pardews sacking and the running of the club...?????? Are these people from another planet?????

Been at it since the 1980s. Well said. As I said the other day thier are too many "fans" with a desire for unstabilty at the club so they can push thier own selfish agenda. Whether it be the basic "look at me ! look at me !" posturing , fansontheboard or jobs for the boys.

Viking Warrior Posted 4 September, 2010 Author Share Posted 4 September, 2010 Good to see you have a sense of humour Swannymore I think you need to re do your maths we would still be in this division and even with them it would not be until season 2012/13 when they would have got us back to the premiership no doubt all the fans subscriptions to that great fan organisation would have gone to paying of the clubs debt.

The Kraken Posted 4 September, 2010 Share Posted 4 September, 2010 Why would you hand a season ticket back? As symbolic gestures go it's at the lowest end of the scale in terms of significance, and the club can just re-sell the ticket and make more money. Of course Clotese would say thank you; I'm disappointed he didn't explain their idiocy while he was at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dune Posted 4 September, 2010 Share Posted 4 September, 2010 I'm no fan of Cortese, especially some of the things he's done that affect me (which I care about the most) such as the £3 ticket tax, but now is not the time for protests about a boardroom decision about a manager. We're in pretty good shape and once we get a new manager in there is no reason why we can't shoot up the table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chorley, O'Callaghan, McMillan and Foley were the SISA people who had organised the meeting. It was when they wanted to arrange a fans buyout, I told them to go to hell which I think just summed up what everybody there thought so nothing happened. I think it's just the four of them and this is an attempt to rabble rouse and lead a revolt. Like I said they can go to hell. What idiot would contemplate following those idiots anywhere.

docker-p Posted 4 September, 2010 Share Posted 4 September, 2010 It's very easy to have a pop at SISA, I know I've been to some of there meetings and had to endure their rants. But they have in the past got out from behind their laptops and tried to do something, organise meetings, knock on doors etc; as opposed to 99% of posters on here who are content to sit back with beer in hand, and slag each other off from the comfort of their front room, (i include myself in that category) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I always thought it was just those four idiots at the heart of it, good to have it confirmed. And I'm glad to hear you gave them the short shrift they clearly deserve. But the Echo must also surely know what a complete non-entity of an organisation they are; christ, Dan Kerins gts half his material from this site. Aside from lazy journalism, I still don't understand why these four are given such status in print and constanly referred to as "Fans' chief" etc; it just sticks in my throat that such egocentric imbeciles are given such a forum to effectively speak on my behalf as a Saints fan.

That would be true if they were not so obsessed with their own importance, if they went about things in a balanced fashion and stopped spouting off like a bunch of shop stewards from the 1970's then maybe more fans would take them seriously. Individually they're alright people but as soon as they get together they let themselves down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
