beatlesaint Posted 2 September, 2012 Share Posted 2 September, 2012 Isnt the whole point of "tweeting" to tell followers what you are doing or thinking at any one time ? MLT has simply tweeted his toughts, to be honest letting someone have his season tickets whilst he isnt using them is no big deal surely ? The only thing Matt should correct is that it was the jobsworth steward rather than NC who presumably wasnt stood at the turnstile didnt let his "guests" in.

VectisSaint Posted 2 September, 2012 Share Posted 2 September, 2012 He is a petty tw*t nearly all the time.

Saint J 77 Posted 2 September, 2012 Share Posted 2 September, 2012 He shouldn't of said anything really. Matt will always be a Saints hero to me but if he did hear NC say that he should of bit his tongue and left it. All saying that will do is create a division amongst some of the fans, and right now we need to be together as one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colbury Posted 2 September, 2012 Share Posted 2 September, 2012 Tiss complaining someone wasn't allowed to use his season ticket?? They're non-transferrable.. Yes other people do it, which he's made a point of in his tweets. This is because the steward has no idea that 'saints fan a' is not 'saints fan b'. The stewards would probably notice that 'saints fan c' is not Matt Le Tissier. Grow up... Im confused. How would the stewards know under the new swipe card system?

Chez Posted 2 September, 2012 Share Posted 2 September, 2012 That's what I'm wondering. The only way is surely if the club were aware beforehand that the tickets had been transferred and the system blocked their access at the turnstiles. If that's the case then its a totally childish reaction. it appears that's exactly what happened. Pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger Posted 2 September, 2012 Share Posted 2 September, 2012 So where does the fault and grudge lie ? Seems? How does he know?! They both need to grow up. Does this stem from the whole pinnacle big stuff when they got exclusivity etc NC holds a grudge because Pinnacle got exclusivity ? I think Matt needs to grow up, Twitting that hopeing for a reaction from us sad. Some of the stuff him and his mates on sky sports news have said in the past is a joke. Still upset he did'nt get the club no wonder nc does'nt like him. MLTholds a grudge and resents the fact Marcus and NC eventually beat the consortium to the club. Throw in the Benali factor which presumably MLT has sided on. Yes, bang their heads together. NC can not deny us the heritage of the club of which MLT was a recent big part; MLT should give up twittering like an adolescent about the slightest thing.

St Marco Posted 2 September, 2012 Share Posted 2 September, 2012 People can bash Cortese all they want but they need to remember where we were three years ago.

NC can not deny us the heritage of the club of which MLT was a recent big part; MLT should give up twittering like an adolescent about the slightest thing. Correct with the Benali part, not quite with the first part. As I've said on another thread (or earlier on this one, I don't recall, too much red wine since getting back from the game), Matt is totally happy that ML gained control. All I'm going to say (and all that matters) is that there is some resentment related to the pre-takeover period between NC and Matt but it doesn't relate to who won. That needs to be swept under the bridge (see edit) and forgotten about from both sides. The Benali stuff will run a while yet so what can you do? (puts head down and pours another glass of red...)

He isn't resentful about Pinnacle losing, not sure what his current views are about the personalities there-in but he'd be silly to think they'd be doing a better job than team ML. Never said anything to suggest he does. See above post, and repeat until falling into drunken stupor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revolution saint Posted 2 September, 2012 Share Posted 2 September, 2012 Who here hasn't given their ST to someone when they couldn't attend a game? And how many others have accepted one in similar circumstances? Quite a few I'd guess. If that's all MLT has done and he's been targeted by NC then that's pretty bad form by NC and he needs to grow up a bit. Without denying the job NC has done and appreciating it, this club did not start when Marcus bought it. It started a long time ago and many people figure in that MLT included. We've lost the Ted Bates trophy and at least one of the legend lounge names, that's not appealing to me but I'll put up with it. I don't find it acceptable when IMO our best player ever is singled out and punished for something most of us do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NC may bear a grudge on the takeover (and the exclusivity issue) but Matt doesn't. To my knowledge all the 'dislike' regarding this issue (the takeover on the whole) comes from NCs side, but there's more to that than simply who won and Pinnacles exclusivity blocking ML. Matt is just pleased the club is in safe hands for the long term. From Matt's side its mainly the Benali thing and then I guess a hundred petty small things like those mentioned on TWITter this evening.

Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd Posted 2 September, 2012 Share Posted 2 September, 2012 Why shouldn't MLT go public with this? He has every right to be ****ed off. He gave his ticket to someone else, something which is common practice amongst fans and NC has gone out of his way to be awkward just because he doesn't like LeTissier. **** me, if NC has got the time to worry about other people using MLT's season ticket then we've got a real problem.

Dellman Posted 2 September, 2012 Share Posted 2 September, 2012 MLT was my idol, I loved him and thought the whole England side should have been built round his genious but since he retired he has been a pain and that whole pinnacle nonsense showed that his genious was left on the pitch.

Frank's cousin Posted 3 September, 2012 Share Posted 3 September, 2012 All stupid, but for there to be any chance of some sort of 'blue line' - Matt needs to stop using his Sky role to keep bringing it up .... and stop airing his issues in public - I think its this fact that is causing NC to be a infantile about it. Being a legend on the pitch does not mean he is never wrong and in this case I believe he is. Legend status does not excuse him form being a bit of a plonker when in the media.

Chez Posted 3 September, 2012 Share Posted 3 September, 2012 My backing of MLT on this matter has nothing to do with how I feel about him as a former ex player/hero. He admittance to betting fraud has lowered my opinion of him substantially. However, I just think its petty by Cortese and if true (I can't see MLT telling porkies) shows what sort of person he is. Put yourself in Matt's shoes and you had lent your ST to perhaps your Grandad and when he got to the ground he found that he was barred because you and the chairman had had words. How would you react? Shrug your shoulders, sigh and keep it to yourself, or feel annoyed and have a moan about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
