His brother Stephan Schmidheiny is also a billionaire.

Admin update by Fry, according to Solent this morning.

It's going to be a very tense week.

This is how I feel. All I want is Saints to survive. If Pinnacle come up with the goods then fantastic. But let's be honest, TL told us that his client's worth equalled several hundred £M! Shock horror the prospective principle owner turns out to live at home in a three bedroom semi-detached house with his parents and is a director of two companies with gross turnover just south £100K. Not very crediable and even the most positive thinking fans must have their doubts. Nevertheless, I hope I'm eating humble pie by Tuesday. This takeover stuff has dragged on for the past 3-4 years and has caused so much damage. I pray Tuesday will see an end to all the instability and we can start talking about summer transfers and pre-season friendlies.

Pinnacle's credibility has been shot to pieces over the last few days. It's been a total PR disaster. Central to all this is where's the money coming from?

Roma?

Gm's sense of humour is definitely an acquired taste;)

I'm sure I read somewhere that there was a big meeting in London today to discuss the points appeal?

Brilliant:D

Two portions of humbie pie please. Fingers crossed:)

True. Therefore you would expect them to say that the deal will be completed first thing Monday.

Hold your horses. The deal's not complete yet. Also if I remember correctly TL stated that once the -10 points issue was out the way then the Pinnacle group could immediately sign the deal. Why the delay? Surely they can complete the deal this weekend? I really do hope they prove all the sceptics wrong, including me because what's most important is the survival of SFC.

But where is the money coming from?

Guilty as charged;)

If the deal collapses because of the FL's intransigence then I hope Pinnacle, Admin, creditors and fans will seek redress from the FL authoritites.

I bet the football league use one standard contract which was never intended to be used for our situation (Eg holding company going into admin & no CVAs). It's like trying to fit something square into a round hole, you can't do it. I'm sure this is the case and therefore I'm not surprised the lawyers are jumping all over it.

Hope you're right! For those that don't know Red_No_7 works at the club.

Nail on head!

Agree.

Now you're being silly;) I'm sure they have very sound commercial reasons for staying anonymous at this time. It's been a frustrating 3-4 days but I'm still extremely positive that we will all be celebrating some good news soon.

Some very positive news:)

Jon Hunt???
