Statistically 6 out of 7 dwarfs are not happy. --------------------------------------------- As nervous as Josep Fritzel on MTV cribs

I suppose a refund is out of the question?
Crouchie's Lawyer replied to SoccerMom's topic in The Saints
The players should fund it from their own wages -
Alright Yoda!

And there lies the other major factor as to why results are meaningless. I dont know if that would be more of a kick in the teeth, having managed to pull of a miracle, only to be kicked in the knuts

Positivity eh? Erm... At least we will walk League one, it will be nice to be relegated to win a few games rather than losing all the time... Oh wait....

I have been saying all along, that we are Saints fans and while we should be supporting the team, we have to be realistic and the results you have predicted above are heavily biased. We will not beat a Burnley team who are very much in the playoffs and fighting to keep their place there. We will not beat a Forest team determined to get out of the relegation mess they find themselves in (unlike our bunch of useless jizz stains who are happy to accept their fate and bend over to take the full length of it). Blackpool have nothing to play for and Forest will quite easily turn them over. And finally, Ipswich have nothing to play for (while it maybe a local derby) Norwich will win this one. I like you enthusiasm, but we are f*cked

While I think it is a great idea, I think the realism of the whole thing is that people will say one thing and do another and if you have been counting the amount of money people have said they would give from this thread, the amount you will actually get if you started asking for the money would be a very different sum. A lot of people will like the idea of it, but when push comes to shove, they wont part with their money. Its all well and good £10-£20 here or there, but the sums you are talking about (while in the scheme of things doesnt seem alot) are big amounts of money for people to hand over. I completely understand your point regarding that if the only other option was no club, what would you prefer, but there will always be people who think others will carry the baton, and I'm sure a lot of the people who clicked on an amount will be these kind of people. People who will think, this will happen without my input anyway, so why bother. I think what you may be better off doing if you are seriously looking into this, is what Ebbsfleet did and market it on a national, or even global basis. The chance to own part of the club. Ok so you wont have the chance to pick the team week in or week out, but you will get dividends which is something Ebbsfleet do not offer. You need to keep the costs per 'share' to a minimum though. I know the appeal to be a shareholder with dividends would be quite high for a lot of people, and a club of SFC's size and stature would be a good investment for the right amount. I dont know exactly how you would set up the T&C's but you would want some kind of clause to protect the club that some of the annual profits would be reinvested in the club rather than all money going to shareholders. I think targeting the SFC fanbase (which lets face it has a core of no more than 20k) asking them to donate sums of £100 upwards will be far less fruitful than targetting everyone and anyone for sums of say £25. Saints would benefit from additional support too. I imagine Ebbsfleets fanbase has significantly increased since they took the route of fan ownership and with that merchandising would increase. This would only further improve should we get promoted back to the CCC and then into the premier league. Thumbs up for trying to do something though, but I just am not sure you will get the results you are hoping for.

Petition to get the players to donate a weeks wages
Crouchie's Lawyer replied to Crouchie's Lawyer's topic in The Saints
I do not claim to be a lawyer, my name is reference to a 'Muppet Show' joke. Just quickly picking up on the point about the fans buyout, fair play for trying but the person(s) setting that up have pretty much taken what people have wrote on an internet forum as gospel and based their whole company set up on this. Yes there is a thread saying how much people would be willing to give, but when it comes down to the crunch, how many of those people would actually do it and fork out the £500 each or so? I dont think it will be that many of them which completely screws the whole business income predictions! Why the person(s) setting this up did not consider this I do not know!? -
Petition to get the players to donate a weeks wages

If enough people pressured them they would. If there was a big call and article in the Echo, they would feel more inclined to do so. -
After that shower of s***e performance today against a team who had nothing to play for, I am calling for the players (and coaching staff) to give up this weeks wages and donate it to the 'Save our Saints' funds. Why should we be donating our hard earned money to pay their wages when they dont even give a s**t about battling to the end?! They earn more than most of us and yet dont seem to care. 1 weeks wages to them is not a lot of money, so I urge you players and coaching staff involved in todays debacle to give up your weeks wages as an apology to the people who pay them and to help save the club you have had a hand in ruining.

Essentially we are in the same position as Charlton were before todays games. Down, but not officially confirmed. There is no way we willwin the last 2 games with the dross on the field that we are playing with. No heart, no commitment, no desire. Even if we did win, we need the other teams to get no points which just isnt going to happen. Forest and Norwich have both showed a desire we lack to get out of the situation they are in. I only hope that now it's pretty much confirmed what division we will be in next year, a buyer gets sorted out asap. Clear all the crap out (including that useless w**ker financial director) and start again. I just prey that the tyre kickers are not wasting valuable time and getting in the way of any possible serious bid.

Speak for yourself sunshine. Will fit like a glove for me!

Her sister looks a little like Karen from Shameless

It's one of those wrong ones, which no matter how much I know I shouldnt, I probably would. She is not all that special, but I dunno, there is just something about her
-
How rude of me, I forgot the mandatory picture
-
Would you? There was a program on about her doing up a house last night. I cant decide if I would or not. She is not all that to look at but there is something about her. Discuss.

Or so potty-mouth Ponty can call people c*nts when they don't share the same views as him...

Right I'm off, I have an appointment with a car sales man about buying my third Bugatti Veyron, two just aren't enough! After that I am off to speak with a developer about building my 'Saturday' home for me. Nothing too big, just a small 9 bedroom jobby in the centre of London. Oh and finally I have a date tonight with Charlize Theron, but better keep that schtum as the old ball and strife Jessica Alba wont be too happy to find out! Busy day eh? Laters

I would have seriously lolled if you had got to the end of that mamouth post and the internet had timed out and you lost it all! Fair point though even if it did come across a bit 'look at me'. This comment made me laugh though: Fearing your life after posting on a forum? This isnt the FBI most wanted forum you know, it's a forum discussing SFC!

*Twitter *Fanatics which believe so much in religion they live their life according to it and are willing to sacrifice things for it, including their own life and the life of others! IMO I like the idea of an afterlife but I am not willing to 'waste' my whole life committing to something I have no whole proof exists and in turn not enjoying my life. *Gheys - how can you not find a fine female attractive and want to bone her?! *People who idolise 'meh' celebs like Jade Goody, Kerry Katona etc etc and buy those stupid crappy mag's like Heat and Hello. *Friends - the TV show. Enough with it already, its been milked dry, it just aint funny anymore.

Quality show and that girl is a fittie. Does everyone watch right to the end? After the credits? Last week they showed Lillian (who had earlier been playing tennis on the wii) doing the famous tennis scratching bum pose. They always have funny clips at the end.

Take note a certain admin, you foul mouthed smeg.

Skate-hate you need to appreciate that your views are distorted by the bias you show toward SFC. If you asked any mutual fan (ie no team with hatred views to SFC or any teams in or around the relegation fight) to do the same you would probably find that we would be down. The truth is we have to rely on 2 teams messing up for us to stay alive. Even if Forest slip up and we beat them, if Norwich dont slip up, they will be safe and we will still go down. Realist

But why should it take a rascist ill-educated fake celeb to be unfortunate enough to contract cancer to get these girls to go and get checked up? It's all that is wrong with todays 'I want to be a celeb or just like the celebs' attitude of most young women without half a brain. Ill get slated for saying it but it's just another form of wanting to copy celebs, it just so happens that this is probably the first worthy thing that a celeb has done which is being copied in mass. It just annoys me that all these women wouldnt of taken advantage of a very much available facility which can save their life, until a celeb advises them to (indirectly)
