If you like, PM me the details and I will try to log on as you. If I get problems I will let David Luker know.

The Echo published a large article in which they interviewed Nicola Cortese about the takeover and how he convinced ML to do the deal etc, but does anyone know why or how Nicola Cortese got interested himself? What pushed his buttons? What (or who) motivated him to get involved and to embark on the aforementioned task of engaging ML? In his interview he said "When this opportunity to acquire Southampton came along to me I immediately thought about Markus". How did the opportunity come to a Director of Banque Heritage in Geneva? Maybe he is just a student of all things football and saw it in the press - or maybe he has links with somebody currently or previously involved with SFC? Was Andy Oldknow perhaps? Any clues welcome.

LOL - like the sort of people who would shout such a thing would know the difference!! :-) Reference to Monte is in response to a previous post - have a read back through.......or maybe not. Time to move on.

I don't think the ladies like the c word much but i get your point ;-)

I am not going to quote all that 76 because IMHO it is semantic pseudo-intellectual nonsense. I don't care about itthat much - I am just saying that if you attend an ashes match and start shouting "rag head" at monte panasar then the police will arrest your arse whether monte finds it offensive or not. If you disagree then fine.

Not me. I am not bothered, I am just saying that I agree with ponty. I am expressing an opinion on a previous post, just like you are. "ruining a thread" - lol, what a quaint viewpoint.

It is a racist remark I am afraid IMHO of course. I agree with ponty and I believe most people would. Try shouting it at a football match and I am sure the police would agree too.

Careful, it was only a joke OP don't you know.

naah, but it's a moot point, so lets agree to disagree

Lol - if I really was intending to insult you I would not be using jocular phrases like "looney". Guess you're the one with a sense of humour failure ;-)

Nice theory apart from the fact that fry would not have been in a position to do that. He would have no business hiring or firing sfc employees - he was the administrator for SLH.

...and have sobered up very quickly :-)

Don't start that again. It was not a story - he was engaged in talks about buying SFC (perhaps not for very long) - fact.

You are a looney - watch out for earthquakes.

Which web site did you copy and paste that paragraph in from then?

Somebody agree with Pilsbury before he goes to bed....I am starting to feel sorry for him. Word of advice - don't start a thread entitled "Tony Adams anybody?".

WTF do South Today know about anything.

Any adult who wears a football shirt anywhere but on a football pitch is a sad muppet IMHO - especially when accompanied with shell suit trousers, trainers and a beer belly :cool: .....unless they are at the ground watching of course (although I still wouldn't).

Doesn't "neither" imply a choice of two? You have listed 5 - so who is the retard?

LOL, I have never seen anyone slur when writing before :-)

According to the Echo interview with Nicola Cortese we are absolutely, completely, categorically debt free. He was very clear about it, so I for one am inclined to believe it.

Those were the days.....that would just have me wasting Saturday in bed groaning "never again" these days :-)

I stand corrected. Just couldn't believe anyone could be 1-5 at this stage.

Who is your preference?
