He did, but hell why should this forum let facts get in the way of a good old debate

exactly !!

thats great to hear - i could do with a decent nights sleep too.......i had a bloody dream last night and RL appeared in the middle of it.....that was me awake for the rest of the night !!

and did he make you feel better in his reply than some of the mores sensationalist posts on here do ?

Thanks again Tony, it makes me feel better hearing from the horses mouth so to speak. I am sure the threorists on here will continue to put forth their own theories and likely outcomes unfortunately. Some of the in depth posts on here which not only second guess what Pinnacle/Fry/The Football League will do or say regarding an issue or issues which have not been made public due to confidentiality agreements are quite frankly mind blowing !!

Yep : - )

Oh god - good morning SR - I am sure he doesnt represent HIM. You need to get over this - you aren't Dalek in other life are you cos the parallels with his Hoddle obsession are obvious : - )

Well you have made me feel better, thanks, and gathering all the little scraps of info (Mr Lynam's post, MLT on SSN etc) that would certainly make a lot more sense than the right to appeal issue.

So do we know what form this meeting is going to take on Monday then ? I mean is this a meeting where - A - Pinnacle/Administrator/Club have some form of representation to air their side of the argument and for both parties to discuss the situation. or B - Is it a few old crusties from the FL sitting around a table with tea and biscuits for about half an hour before issuing a statement which basically says "**** you, agree with us or go away" ?? Because if it is B then whats the point of them holding the meeting, they may as well have just issued a statement to that effect.

yeah, he never mentioned today, just said "despite outside influences" to undermine their bid.....i assume that was a little swipe at the FL !! there was certainly no suggestion from MLT that the thing is about to go tits up !

All he has said, it would seem, is the quote in the Echo about no bidder will complete until the League's assurance they will get the licence to play in League 1 this coming season.

No idea, Mr Lynam's note didnt indicate either way. I would assume thats it until Monday's meeting but who knows ? If Pinnacle lawyers say whatever the FL get them to sign is not a legally binding document due to its content then they could complete tonight....but its doubtful.

No i dont....where would he get the funds from for a start.......and secondly if you were a creditor who felt done over by him and his mates would you really accept a fraction of the debt owed ???

Thats right, doesnt matter if the ten points are added back to our total next April if we won an appeal....so why stir the pot at this very moment.....everyone knows the FL have the "its my ball..." mentality.

will you give it a rest about him FFS.

is there a good reason behind your optimism or just hoping like the rest of us ?

oh God......gonna be a long night then !!!

One is told he is keen, one is told it wont happen........so nobody really knows do they ?

something about us not being as big or legendary as Saints fans seem to think we are, something about SFC disappearing off the football map and not having the quality to survive in League 1 etc etc, a real rant for no apparent reason. The one thing RL did get right - North London yobbo !!! Get back to your Redcrapp love in you ***** !!!

SSN just read out an e mail from a Spurs fan called Eddie who has slagged us off. Wind your neck in and keep your nose out, its got **** all to do with you Spud !!!

Well if the shortlist is two, and KK is one of them then surely the other is a bit more high profile than Paul Tisdale. On the one hand you have Keegan, on the other you have Tisdale...............ummm, not much of a call is it ???

Thats how it would be at virtually every other club in the country. However this is Southampton !! Seriously, it sounds the most reasonable explanation to meridian's statement.

Dunno but be nice to get my season ticket to actually take advantage of the offer !!! Does this mean this is the Pinnacle pricing structure, or part of it, revealed ?

glad I could help !! Yes I remember the impact was tremendous, it even got mentioned in my school assembly the next morning....and that was in Weymouth not Southampton !! I remember feeling rather pleased and smug when the Head Master mentioned it mind you !!!

well I have no real opinion either way, except i wish they would find someone else to interview BUT if he is going to come on and speak as a Saints fan or whatever at least do a bit of bloody research before you open your trap Nick !!
