Viking Warrior

Saint Richmond Im no financial wizz kid but as a shareholder. I was under the impression that my shares are no longer valid. Im just waiting equinta to formal advise me of this. So unless the directors have a caveat in their shareholding to give them somemoney should the club go tits up. then I suspect their shares are equally worthless like mine and many others Can the financial gurus please advise all us shareholders. Got I have been shafted first RBS shares and now saints shares I just hope Norwich Union dosent go tits up

Heres a thought Maybe the BBC can get Alan Sugar to set his apprentices the task of making saints into a profitable business. I thnik the LM story and the picture to be poppy**** mainly as he walked away from the club. If he was in their as suggested that is a very lax bit of security by the administrators. and for that reason Alain Perrin your fired:)

Couldnt see John Motson in the photo. Was looking out for his trademark sheepskin coat. There is someone who has an uncanny likeness to Paul Allen but then I have had two bottles of decent wine but not the expensive Chablis that Help me Rhonda spoke about

Good post St Pat I was thinking about what you said and potential investors earlier. I don't think todays results made much difference to potential investors. If they are truly serious. they probably have aleady accepted that we are relegated givne the potential 10pt deduction. but equally they new we were in a mess and more likely to drop into Div 1. If they weren't seriously interested then they wouldnt bother talking to the administrators. from what I can work out from Exit and derry I think it was, the administrators were talking to a number of serious people today. I could be wrong , just picking up on what derry exit and I think weston said before the match. These serious investors can obviously saints potential whilest we could be in div 1 next year I really dont think that is a problem for them. So perhaps trough my drunken stupor (I spelt it right this time Phil) thinks are not as bad as they actually seem right now

Some people have a sick sense of humour if thet think they are being ironic about an 8 year old has their head kicked in. I saw nothing humurous in saint 1976 and bournemouth saints post. I also looked at the clip Stmarco refers to, there was one person in a wheelchair being pushed away. whilst not directly in the centre of the melee I bet they were scared ****less .all the same. Well done to those who were causing trouble Albeit a handful of saints, you have brought nothing but shame to southampton football club.

Flybe What a ****e company. expensive rude customer service, charge for having a suitcase if you come from another airline. Saints would do well to get rid of that shower of ****e. However we are stuck with that airline for another 4 years up here. Commonly known as flymaybe or fly****e. Bunch of money grapping parasites.

Windmill I feel the same way but like samson growing his hair I will regain some strength tomorrow and will continue to get behind the team. but right now Im devoid of any feeling after that result

Soccermum sounds like you did the right thing leaving early given the trouble that occurred after the game

Hi Mike 70 I look forward to a fuller report from you. By the way what did leon and laure have to say? Fancy meeting up for a drink at the next home game? Mike

Saints fans taunting charlton fans. Bottles being thrown at the police by saints fans. Doesnt do much to attract potential investors when this occurs. Very disappointing

Im not suprised some fans are having a go at Mark Wotte. see some opf the above post When I posed the question re now rupes has gone will some of the vocal minority turn their attention to our manager I was called What a thick t w a t amongst other things for posing the question . I should have waited till now before my post. Now is not the time for recrimminations. We are hanging on by a thread but we haven't fallen yet. The result has ****ed me off, I was going out to celebrate our win but now Im too depressed

Whats going on outside the ground according to Dave Armstrong there are ugly scenes occuring. Dosen't sound good

Raining and miserable in the north of Scotland

Ref sounds a joke I hope our players don't do anything rash. sounds like the man in the middle may brand the odd red card.

Saved well done KD

Very noisy but the commentator is not helping

Alpine I have had a pop at you about this in the past. I still don't think it is a good position to be in, there are still so many barriers to overcome. I still don't like the idea of being in administration so will not apologise to you as you have always been negative. Burley the Players and Lowe. I respect your opinion but do not necessarily agree with it The only good thing about the events over the last few days is lowe and co have gone and there is some semblance of normality appearing between some of the fans on this site and the boardroom squabbles. For me that is a real positive. Now get behind wotte and the team from now until the end of the season The futures Bright the futures red and white

Likerwise Mike I guess it shows how much the boardroom shambles has deflected us both away from our real passion. the actual football Im sure we will have different opinions in the future, but hopefully it will be purely about football and how such and such a player played during a game Here to a good win this afternoon. Charlton must be very worried as they know sainst and the fans will be well bouyed up for this game Regards Another Mike

Good on KD and JE The sun article is interesting however, Arriva are okay re the stadium dept which is 24.5 million. The real problem that the Sun misses is the Barclay's debt of 4million. It was they who have put us to the sword by withdrawing the overdraft facility and not Arriva

Mike I had forgotton about the fact we dont require the parties to agree to a takeover. which make the process afar easier without the boards squabbling all the time. Just listened to Baj's post re SSN and the administrator sounds positive. the comment of expressions of interest upwards of 15 was good to hear, thats with in only a few hours of going into administration. Sure some will be chancers/media trying to find a story to sell in their papers But would I be right in thinking that the genuine buyers maybe holding back before considering a formal bid? Go to most auctions and there are those who play the opening gambit bidding knowing full well the big players are keeping thier powder dry. Two thing for sure who will not be playing are Rupes and any iclandic business men

So Sideburns how did the evening with LM Go did he say much about the events over the last 3 days?

As Phil said I believe a lot more will be revealed over what has or has not happened. The Blame culture will continue for sometime to come. I have watched the lowe broadcast twice now to get a much better understanding of the current state of events. He does make some important points about financial prudence. He's not necessarily pointing the finger at Crouch but more towards Hone, Dalleu and oldknow. I think thats where a lot of the problems stem from. In time people will start to be less hostile towards people who try to make reasoned comments about the last 72 hours, But there have been come decent posters who are gettig some real **** thrown at them for having the view they have. What is clear we are still a divided fan base on this site at least. I hope that investment is not to far away. I will do my bit re buying a season ticket etc. but that will not be enough. There are so many tyre kickers about even hone hoos and co said they were talking to umpteen people about potential takeovers. None ever materilised. Anyway Im trying to remain optomistic about the furture. Tomorrows another day and maybe Saltz and Fulthorpe will through in some loose change to keep the club afloat Come On You saints do it for the fans this afternoon

Im a bit suspicious about this coming on a forum like this asking to donate money anything from £100 to £10. 000 what about those that can only afford a few quid? Me Im very suspicious of this, can the mods urgently check it out, and from a yahoo address. problem some skate on a wind up misssion

No I anit a ****ing idiot far from it. but your all entitled to your opinion> iwas just posing the question. I am totally behind Wotte and want him to stay at least till the end of the season. And no I was not trying to make political mileage etc out of my post. Im as concerned as much as the next fan re the state of the club but given the hostility towards wotte in recent weeks I was just trying to gauge whether everybody would now get behind the team. With Hindsight I could have posed the question better. So apologies for upsetting some of my fellow fans

LC comes across well in the article and I congratulate him for that and I know he is a true saints fans but I really think we need a total clean sweep in the boardroom. Onwards and upwards
