hypochondriac Posted 25 January, 2011 Share Posted 25 January, 2011 Absolutely no idea if it is true or not either way. If it was good news people would be saying it was true whilst because it is bad news people dismiss it. Really hope it isn't true though because they last thing we need now is upheaval.

lambertsrightleg Posted 25 January, 2011 Share Posted 25 January, 2011 Ok, here is my opinion. I wouldn't overly disagree with anything that he has said. Something is going on behind the scenes with regards to club ownership. To me, it would seem that Cortese is trying to follow Marcus' dream and the family simply do not match that. I'm not saying they don't like Nicola or the club but would you really spend millions of pounds of your inheritance on something you weren't overly keen on. This was Marcus' vision, not his family's. Once the story was printed (the sun i believe) Nicola pulled a very smart move in doing the interview to reassure fans and get everybody behind the club again. I'm not saying that he is lying but you don't get to his position in life without being a good people person and being able to steady a rocking boat. He knows that some unrest from fans this season would seriously jepordise the promotion push. The bare facts are that there's a week left of the transfer window and we haven't been anywhere near as active as we need to be. Forget all this waiting until the end of the window, if we wanted players and had money we would be making things happen. Look at last January. I understand this will sound controversial and I'll be branded anti-Cortese. I'm really not, I couldn't be more behind this football club. I'm just saying that instead of being so quick to assume things are ok off the back of one interview Cortese did is slightly naive. It is my belief that the funds are not there and Cortese, to his credit, is doing a wonderful job at keeping the club together at a crucial time for us.

saintjay77 Posted 25 January, 2011 Share Posted 25 January, 2011 (edited) Cortese said not so long back that if the family wanted out he would sort it and bring others of equal value in without a problem. Cant see why they would be unhappy with that. If they want out and dont want to pay him off then just sit back and let him bring someone else in and they are one. This comment made me think though: Not usually one to jump on the "we're doomed" bandwagon but I have also heard murmurings that the club could have new owners "within the next 12 weeks", this would certainly give some credence to Northam Lights posting as it would explain why the family would want Nicola out as he most definitely would feel that any sale would be contrary to his great friend Markus' wishes and oppose it. Name your source I hear you ask - ok, a well known local comedian. If thats the comedien that im thinking about, doesnt his brother or something post on here? Should be pretty easy to confirm if that post is garbage or not if so? Edited 25 January, 2011 by saintjay77 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted 25 January, 2011 Share Posted 25 January, 2011 The club isn't for sale. and he's kind of made himself look stupid by saying there will be no more transfer activity until this is sorted. (oh but of course they'll mangage to push through the sale of Chambo, who's having a medical tomorrow!!!!) He's ignored the fact that we've signed Chaplow, Guly and tied Lallana down to long term deals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmel Posted 25 January, 2011 Share Posted 25 January, 2011 Well if it is Left Back then we should all be very worried. He was pretty much 100% accurate with all his posts and predictions. But for the record, I don't buy it and I don't think it is Leftback. If Cortese was under pressure from the family, then outside of his PA, no one would know about it. This is just someone (Forwhatever reason) ****iester stiring. However. Just bare in mind that Marcus paid somewhere between 11 & 13 million for lock stock and barrell and is just about to realise 10 milllion on a single player (And one i doubt knew existed at the time of purchase). However the relationships work with the family and whatever their commitments and plans are for the club, they will almost certainly be a whole lot more interested this week than they were a month ago.

dockland Dave Posted 25 January, 2011 Share Posted 25 January, 2011 what does worry me slightly is that the derrision the majority of posters are giving "Northam lights" on here is very similar to that given to "left back" when he started posting on here. Those shouts of abuse subsided when he his pieces of info started proving true. Bottom line is none of us have a clue what is happening with regards to our owners. Would any of us be really shocked if we found out that that ML's family had decided they didn't want the burden of a L1 football club in their business portfolio?

The bloke with the cut ( and badly cut up ) face was smashed in the face with a bottle and then had it repeatedly grinded into his face. I will leave you to fill in the gaps. Someone is going to prison for this, make no mistake, this wasn't your usual pub scrap. Martin O'Neill League One Southampton by Northam Lights (U14600032) 07 September 2010 Marting is currently in talks with Cortese and their respective advisors. Martin stayed in a hotel close to Southampton last night with his agent and is currently speaking to Cortese this morning. As long as Mr Cortese can adhere to Martins terms then a deal should be in place and an announcement this afternoon / this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorpie the sinner Posted 25 January, 2011 Share Posted 25 January, 2011 The dark forces will always be in the background trying to destabilise the club! They have their own agenda and for the majority of us, it is pretty tiresome! I can't say thay aren't telling the truth as I have no idea, nor want to have, whats going on at club! All I would say is that I have a fervent belief that we will get back to premiership and I am backing the current set up to take us there! Just thinking it would be fantastic tonight if at 1133pm, NC pulls the rabbit out of the hat and announces our first real signing, CMS would be a great start! If nothing else, just to shatter the first intimation that we will make no signings etc. come on NC, fight back son! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leslie Charteris Posted 25 January, 2011 Share Posted 25 January, 2011 From the mouth of N. Cortese "If there's any lack of commitment [from the family] we have a plan B. I know people with money who would have the same attitude as Markus who would join us on this. But, just to underline, the commitment of the family is 100%." - from his BBC interview. I shall continue to believe this until there is concrete evidence otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
