He looks a trustworthy guy doesn't he? Reminds me of Richard Attenborough. Yes, that's it, he's santa claus :)

 

Yes he does look trustworthy, in a kindly grandfather sort of a way.

 

My take on his doppelganger... Richard Bucket, Hyacinthe's long suffering husband!

 

Welcome Markus, you sound just the man for us and hope you will be on the pitch prior to Millwall game to meet your new loyal fans.

 

Might have to change pre game music to the "William Tell Overture" for players entrance now!

 

:D :D :D

His worth is 3 billion euros, which is worth 2.5 billion pounds. Thats just his personal worth.

 

Tom Hicks (aka Liverpool) is worth 1.4 billion dollars.

 

Which means Markus is roughly 3 times richer than Mr Hicks.

 

I am loving this . . . (Hope I got the billions right on the short scale that is)

Know I'm going to get shot down for this but don't like the Hicks comparison, we don't want to borrowing risk that Hick's introduced...then again having said that it's like he can be planning on making millions out of saints:D

 

Bring on the trumpets and cow bells!!!

Just a financial worth comparison, nothing more. Would never want a Tom Hicks type investing in Saints, which is what I believe some of the others would have been, as they were all investment vehicles, or speaking for persons/vehicles of wealth.

I'm ashamed of you lot.

 

No-one's giving a thought to poor little Micky Fiasco, sat in his room at his mum's sobbing his little heart out.

 

Saints fans aren't what they used to be.

 

By the way, I take it your views on clubs being owned by foreign sugar daddies and buying their way to promotion are softening somewhat from what you've said to me in the past? ;)

Apologies for all that folks, technical problem between the keyboard and the seat meant that the link wasn't available. All fixed now and should be fine

 

(although probably worth right mouse clicking the link and downloading to your machine rather than trying to stream it).

 

Mike

Cheers Mike, top work!

Not at all - just not bent ones - and I think you'll find that our new owner has impeccable credentials.

Echo report says

 

Markus Liebherr was attracted to Southampton by a number of qualities which include the Club's rich sporting heritage, loyal fan base, first class stadium and training facilities and the potential for the Saints to regain their rightful place at the higher echelons of English football.

 

At last, someone has finally seen our potential yeeee haaaa

 

Did he not mention the catering?

Says it all doesn't it?

 

Football League quote:

 

"We appreciate the professionalism and commitment that they have shown during these negotiations. In particular, they should be commended for agreeing the deal in a very tight timeframe and for being the first potential purchaser to have everything in place to take the club forward."
