saint_stevo Posted 1 July, 2009 Share Posted 1 July, 2009 Interesting to see from the Members List that Spencer (The) Farmer was browsing the forum a mere 15 mins ago. No sign of him posting his final thoughts on the Pinnacle shambles tho.... Looks like his 'greatest' contribution to the club will remain the setting up of the Forever Saints message board along with Tristan-Stanley-Mole with the sole objective of abusing Keith Legg.... I really do hope for all our sakes that the weeks that Pinnacle p issed away hasn't resulted in the death of the club. To be fair to The Farmer, he did respond to a PM i sent him (more of a reply to one he sent me) and did explain his position in all of this and a few other bits and pieces. Good of him to do so. Blame TL, not him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rasiak-9- Posted 1 July, 2009 Share Posted 1 July, 2009 guys can someone just clarify this for me: If no takeover is completed by Friday what actually happens? I mean is that really the day that everything from the computers to the picture of the train is sold off at auction and Southampton FC basically ends?

SaintRobbie Posted 1 July, 2009 Share Posted 1 July, 2009 In Mark Wotte's interview on SNS just before 5 he confirmed he met the Swiss group 4 weeks ago!!! Only to show them around he said. Not to be offered anything by them. Dave Jones and Fry have re-appointed him not the new owners. He clearly avoided the question on whether the Swiss owners had made the offer.

buctootim Posted 1 July, 2009 Share Posted 1 July, 2009 Hmmm, so if SFC go into admin do we clock another minus ten points (or whatever)? Wouldn't think so.

Wade Garrett Posted 1 July, 2009 Share Posted 1 July, 2009 Hmmm, so if SFC go into admin do we clock another minus ten points (or whatever)? I don't see how. If the league see us as intrinsically linked to the PLC they can hardly punish us twice as 2 separate entities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFC Forever Posted 1 July, 2009 Share Posted 1 July, 2009 In which case we must have a chance of seeing some movement re the bid in near future. Perhaps Fry has kept them on the boil in case the first course was inedible. Now serve them up for us Mark so we can concentrate on the afters. Simple mundane things like team selection and style of play to suit our best 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St_Tel49 Posted 1 July, 2009 Share Posted 1 July, 2009 How do they make that out ?????? That would mean that the FL accept that SFC is SEPARATE from Leisure Holdings ....... ..... and as far as I was aware, the FL have always said that the two were intrinsically linked ..... thus REQUIRING a CVA ????????? SO WHO IS RIGHT ??? If the two are intrinsically linked why would you need two CVAs?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadaSaint Posted 1 July, 2009 Share Posted 1 July, 2009 won't it be SLH that is liquidated? Won't liquidation mean that all the individual elements on the balance sheet will be sold off seperately, the land, the stadium, the training ground, the club...oh wait a minute does that not mean that someone could then buy one or two of the seperate elements and then bobs your unkle you have yourself a football club, perhaps with the need to rent a training ground or a stadium. I didn't see anyone address Chez's post - that angle interests me. If the entity that the new owner is buying is SFC, how do they gain any ownership and control over the stadium? Do they buy that from the creditors (AVIA)? If they are buying SFC (for the team) and at least some of the assets of SLH in order to own and control the stadium, why wouldn't they need a CVA? Sorry if I'm being thick here but I thought Chez raised a good point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St_Tel49 Posted 1 July, 2009 Share Posted 1 July, 2009 Hmmm, so if SFC go into admin do we clock another minus ten points (or whatever)? We have just raised £2m by the sale of players so why is it necessary to liquidate? As far as I know the administrator can continue to run us as a football club until a buyer is found - is that not what happened at Bournemouth or have I got that wrong?

NickG Posted 1 July, 2009 Share Posted 1 July, 2009 yes.

I suppose Mark Fry will carry on administering SLH and its assets until, in his judgement, the break up value of the assets exceeds the value likely to be obtained from selling off SLH as a whole.

Is the Swiss clock ticking or is it winding down? Also has Farmer taken the crown from ST David re the wind up merchant on takeovers.
