I think he should spend what our income from gates dictates we can afford.

I had to laugh when they read on the emails on SSN. There was one from a bitter Everton fan memoaning the fact that a billionaire goes and buys a League 1 club in admin when they can't get anyone to buy Everton from Kenwright. Now where have I heard that "every one gets bought except us" moan ? :-)

404 - Page not found!

Shame "SLAMMED" got banned - there was some serious mileage to be had in winding him/her up. Bitter or what?

Just said something like this I expect: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/s/southampton/8136389.stm

Reality will set in at about half time vs Millwall at home ;-)

No more likely to be accurate than anything seen on here IMHO....but.....

Yes - last season. The only way they will get any deducted this season is if the exit admin without a CVA, which looks unlikely looking at that article.

Nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly, nearly.....no

Try this: http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/saints/news/4479694.Swiss_on_verge_of_formal_takeover_announcement/ but nothing new really. It is as if the time between now and the takeover being completed is continually halving....which means it will disappear into infinity without ever quite getting there. It is always these "last minute unforeseen hitches with third parties......" etc etc. The comparisons with buying or selling a house are uncanny.

Errr - no :smt104

Have you been constipated?

Why? Is he paying?

I had a KTM moped in 1980. I certainly needed a positive mental attitude when trying to get the bloody thing to start, and plenty of bravery when I eventually got going :-)

Even the amateur sportsmen among us know that a poor mental attitude gets you a poor result. I find that out every time I stand on the 18th tee with a decent score under my belt and start thinking about all the places I don't want my ball to go. But it is the mental attitude of the coaches and players that matters, not the idle ramblings of the supporters on this forum. I think you were berating some people for having a less than positive attitude about the coming season as if it would make any difference. Now, if Wotte was to go to press with the same negativity I would agree with you....but he hasn't. He has been appointed Manager too, so like it or not that is what we are going with this season.

Wotte is the Manager - end of story. What is the point in speculating now?

Knot "loosening" ;-)

So after 37 posts you finally get an opportunity to tell us how skillful, brave and mentally strong you are - at a national level no less. Bravo. Can you also explain what a "looser" is because I can't find it in the dictionary? Something to do with not liking things too tight perhaps? Maybe you have achieved your sporting brilliance by skipping your English classes at school. What a self-centred knob (IMHO of course).

Speculation on the manager is pointless - it is Wotte, like it or not.

The stupidest thread in a long time - and that takes some doing.

Who is this Sheerer bloke? A new name in the frame?

Quite - so likely to be complete speculation. Fingers crossed though - this guy would have to get it right one day (by the law of averages).

That probably won't be necessary. We just have to wait 3-4 seasons for Poopey to be in the lower reaches of Div 1 too.

A Saints Director or an Eastleigh Director? If the former then there is a good chance it is true. If it's the latter (and it's my mate) then it will be speculation (delivered in a confident "this is fact" manner). I make money by betting against everything he relays to me as fact.

Nope - he is always incorrect in every detail. No straw there I am afraid.
