Hello Mr Grumpy - as most have pointed out he is a footballing man with footballing contacts and of course an ex manager of ours. Not sure if he still has one of his houses in the area but know when he was here he did like it. IMO he is our best option.
Anyone else hear on radio hants this morning that Chris Evans (Ginger Group) were very close to buying Everton FC a few years back for about 12m. Wonder if he still has a few millon to spare and still interested in a football club.
There must be a cut off date that the FL have given, how do they know if to put SFC into the computer for fixtures which I think are released in a few weeks.
Not me either, I can honestly say if Southampton FC do not survive then I am going to give up football altogether. I cant build up any enthusiasm for any other club, I have invested a lot of money over the years in SFC and have lots of memories, no other team could ever come close.
One change I would like to see is ticketing prices. Each division should have their own ticket prices i.e. PL = £30, Championship = £20, League 1 = £15 and League 2 = £10 with half their prices for concessions i.e. children, oaps etc.
When I look at the page on the website of those who have donated £1k or more it would be good to see a few of the players names plus people like LMc and Mike Osman, of course these people may have donated to the cause and could have asked for their names not to be added.
Could there be an announcement on Sunday, I am sure RL called a press conference once to announce that he had sacked one of our many managers and I think it was Stuart Gray anyone else remember anything important happening on a Sunday before.
just as a matter of interest, and I really hope it doesnt happen, but if SFC no longer existed as a League 1 team or member of the FL would anyone benefit, i.e. who would take our place and would their be any other benefits to the FL or other clubs.
What does that actually mean then, it doesnt read good and looks as though we have come to no agreement with anyone and they are just going to sell off any assets we have.
