SaintBobby Posted 21 June, 2009 Posted 21 June, 2009 (edited) I know most Saints fans are agonising about whether they'd like Matt Le Tissier or Marc Jackson to become the next Chairman of Southampton Football Club. It's one of those evenly balanced, very hard to call, knife edge judgements. Here's some footage to try and help you make your mind up: Le Tissier http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUt5CQPyWzs Jackson http://asf.narrowstep.tv/mcp?psid=86...d=175029&fab=0 I still can't decide between the two of them....:-) Edited 21 June, 2009 by SaintBobby
Verbal Posted 21 June, 2009 Posted 21 June, 2009 If this is the comedy awards, there's no contest. Sadly it's worse than that though. MJ has the depressing capacity to be just as destructive as that dimwit tommac with his share-price ramping antics and fatuous pretence that he was Paul Allen's representative on earth. We should settle it with a penalty shoot out between the two.
Evo Posted 21 June, 2009 Posted 21 June, 2009 Respect is earned, not given... MLT has my respect so I give him the benefit of any doubt I may have. MJ has no respect from me as he's done absolutely nothing to earn it.

Says error for me.
Channon's Sideburns Posted 21 June, 2009 Posted 21 June, 2009 Well, I'm sure Jackson has the right intentions, but TBF if you were looking at buying a football club with your (or your consortium's) millions.....would you allow someone who obviously isn't comfortable in front of interviewers be your figurehead for the bid? Not a personal criticism of MJ, just an observation with my business head on. Whatever happens, at least MJ has made an effort...however my goodwill goes out the window if he's representing anyone prepared to let Lowe et al play with the train set again... Which is my suspicion.
Micky Posted 21 June, 2009 Posted 21 June, 2009 I think you'll find that the MJ link was removed some weeks ago. Perhaps his current backers saw it and were unhappy with the way it portrayed thier frontman - I know that I would have been.
Mole Posted 21 June, 2009 Posted 21 June, 2009 I think you'll find that the MJ link was removed some weeks ago. Perhaps his imaginary backers saw it in his imaginary world and were unhappy with the way it portrayed their imaginary frontman - I know that I would have been. I've made some edits to make your post more accurate.
Micky Posted 21 June, 2009 Posted 21 June, 2009 I've made some edits to make your post more accurate. No matter what you think of MJ, it is quite evident that he does have some kind of 'backing'. He would not attract the sort of media interest that he does (has) if he had no contacts or backing whatsoever. Mark Fry would not have entertained him for one second had he not proved a certain level of competence within his bid - whether he was used as a tool to lever bidders better suited - who knows? I too, personally think that he is way out of his depth - but I don't think that he 'imagined' everything. One other point - remember - not too long ago, before the Pinnacle bid came to the fore - there were quite a few people on this board showing support and gratitude for his efforts.
NickG Posted 21 June, 2009 Posted 21 June, 2009 its not clear he has backing -when it came to it he couldn't come up with the goods for Bournemouth nor for the deposit for saints.
cellone Posted 21 June, 2009 Posted 21 June, 2009 Which one is the tallest. Only way I can decide between the two.
RedAndWhite91 Posted 21 June, 2009 Posted 21 June, 2009 For a moment there I thought this was going to be a serious thread, thank God it's not... Matthew Le Tissier any day of the week!!!
PaulSaint Posted 21 June, 2009 Posted 21 June, 2009 Its like a Man United fan having to choose between Eric Cantona and Massimo Taibi?
Mole Posted 21 June, 2009 Posted 21 June, 2009 Its like a Man United fan having to choose between Eric Cantona and Massimo Taibi? Or a Saints fan having to choose between MLT and Bradley Wright Phillips.
PaulSaint Posted 21 June, 2009 Posted 21 June, 2009 Talking of BWP, it feels like Malwhiney is picking our back pockets now, He's had a tenner but fancies another £15?

Plus hes' got Glenn Hoddle lined up as manager. There best friends you know.
um pahars Posted 21 June, 2009 Posted 21 June, 2009 Plus hes' got Glenn Hoddle lined up as manager. There best friends you know. think you'll find he manager he was alluding to in The Pink was Peter Reid!!!!
RedAndWhite91 Posted 21 June, 2009 Posted 21 June, 2009 Its like a Man United fan having to choose between Eric Cantona and Massimo Taibi? I wonder how many Man Utd fans down here would know who Massimo Taibi is. Or Eric Cantona. My Man Utd supporting mate thought Old Trafford was in Liverpool!
SaintRobbie Posted 21 June, 2009 Posted 21 June, 2009 Do you mean JM rather than MJ - he's dyslexic as hell you know! No offence to you chaps who can't write and all that, but I think he thinks he's really trying to buy 'Southend Town' , a team in an even lower league than us... they exist honest!
Mole Posted 21 June, 2009 Posted 21 June, 2009 Do you mean JM rather than MJ - he's dyslexic as hell you know! I'm sure he's a role model for everyone with dyslexia. It just goes to show that with grit and determiniation anyone can be a photocopier salesman.
