Let's have some names of potential new owners then...

Anyone reckon the Euro Millions will see a massive surge in ticket sales in the SO postcode area in the next three weeks?

 

Probably Steve, lets face it this club can't be bought realistically as a going concern and will require an individual or group with very deep pockets to repair the damage beyond raising enough to purchase the club.

 

All those pledging their allegiance to go back to SMS and buy ST's will sicken those who have stuck by the club IMO and whilst Lowe and Wilde may be gone the cracks in the fanbase will take years to heal and will continue to run deep. Hardly an enticing prospect and any savvy businessman or consortium isn't going to have the wool pulled over their eyes by bigger crowds for our last 3 home games.

 

It feels like a we're a dead duck - no pun intended.

Why dont the fans get a consortium together? WE COULD BUY THE CLUB AND RUN IT OURSELVES. This really isnt as ludicrous as it sounds either...

 

How much would a consortium have to come up with? Would the overdraft have to be paid off in full?

2,000 fans putting in £2,000 each would probably do it.

While I can empathise with the sentiment, now is very much NOT the time to be hitting "friendly fire" - everyone needs to be pulling as one right now. That particular argument can wait.

I havent looked into it but I am certain that if the right person got behind a ''fans takeover'' (i.e. MLT) we could easily get enough investment and interest to make it possible. Plus we would then never have to worry about having a poor chairman again as we would make all the decisions...

 

I just wish I had enough credibility among the community and was a respected and recognisable enough person to be able to run such a thing.

Actually that is as ridiculous as it sounds.

 

Whilst were on the subject, I think we should get a consortium made up from Craig David, Will Champion, Mick Channon and any other famous, rich Saints fans out there.

a.k.a. Phil knows about something going on behind the scenes.....? ;)

 

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

 

Once upon a time a poster decided to buck the trend and make a Wilde guess. Some people took it with a pinch of Salz, but others held him to Bransom until he gave them the Lowe down.

Despite his attempts to hide, nay Crouch in the corner out of sight, eventually he Gavin and decided to come clean and give the fans the Fulthorpe of his wisdom. Luckily Rhonda was nearby to help him but the real names were hidden in a jammed cupboard. With the astute use of an Allen key he was able to unlock the cupboard and discover to the horror of the fans that it was Bear market time. The last hope appears to be held by a man with a briefcase but hopefully the Statue with limitations will run out on that.

 

HTH
