Fair point. He will walk with a year's wages though. Definitely saw Strachan this afternoon driving over the bridge.

Just seen Gordon Strachan driving over the Itchen Bridge. True story.

I'm going to miss takeover threads, Lowe trolls and suicidal alpine.

Markus, I might have a word to you about your families cranes. Cheers Wade

You make it sound so quaint. Can you picture the tablecloths, cups and saucers, and men drinking with their little finger poking into the air.

I reckon Norwich are nailed on for promotion next season. (F*ck me, we're talking about football again).

Who gives a toss. Weasels and Arseholes like Lowe, Wilde, Askham et al are now consigned to the dustbin of history.

He was never the same after the Monkees broke up.

It is. It's also an anagram of 'spiky haired c*nt'. True story.

go to your nearest bookie and go large on us getting promotion next season. F*cking great. Make my Summer if the Skate 'takeover' goes tits up as well.

nik kershaw is an anagram of I am a W*nker. True story.

Agreed. The quicker it is sorted the better for the club.

All issues resolved and contracts being drawn up. Not really nothing.

Was this a meeting of 'young ladies with unfeasibly small breasts'. Get some sillicone in girls.

Do you still ask your mum what you've got for Christmas in October?

I think that was the skate's plan.

Don't worry about Lynam. He was just a skate taking the p*ss, who all too easily sucked Matty in. Move on now Prof.

This deal actually has the hallmarks of a proper one. No self-publicising. No bullsh*tting on this forum (ala lifelongsaint, HelpMeRhonda, Tony Lynam) No plans made public (Princess Towers etc) No statements regarding the manager, when we have one under contract (Jackson, Le Tissier, Fialka) I think this one might just happen.

Bart is garbage.

I drive the afrorementioned Liebherr cranes at work. If they go through with the deal I would personlly like to take full credit, as I worked very hard with the snagging problems last year. Another true story is that our MD specfically asked for the red and white colours for the crane because of Saints.

Jones is a decent bloke and this whole episode was a disgrace. I despise Lowe, but to be fair, he was put an an impossible position. He was damned if he did, damned if he didn't. However, I think he would have got sacked by Lowe on results anyway. The team were going nowhere and Hoddle did a great job turning us around.

True, but one thing the tyre-kicking c*nts like is to be all over the media. It is why I think Gillico are the same as Pinnacle and Jackson, Batchelor just wants another 5 minutes of fame, tosser. The Swiss on the other hand haven't been revealed to the media, they have made no public comments and have worked away quietly in the background. They would, it seems, even have convinced Fry (fair play to him, he didn't seem that convinced that Pinnacle would succeed and told us). The Swiss are not quite in the tyre-kicking mode of Batchelor, Lynam, Fialka, tommac, HelpMeRhonda and Jackson.

This bloke sounds worse than Lowe. Fry has said he is committed to getting the transaction done with his current buyer. So hopefully this Batchelor shyster will be left in the lurch. Selling to him will be like death of a thousand cuts to the club.

I'd like a nosh from the good lady. More chance of Saints getting taken over.

Alternatively, they dropped out because they have no money. If I had no money it's what I would do, and I'm not exactly Sir Alan Sugar.
