LGTL Posted 16 January, 2014 Share Posted 16 January, 2014 I hate this nonsense about him "destroying us" - do me a favour. He loves us and at the time was backing something he thought would stop us not existing. I'm sure in hindsight he knows he was wrong, but destroyed us? The mind boggles..

Smirking_Saint Posted 16 January, 2014 Share Posted 16 January, 2014 How did he "all but destroy us" off the field? I think he means the Fialka debarcle, not that I blame him especially for it. He was sucked in by a joker, he was obviously trying to save us in a desperate time. He also didnt really shower himself in glory in the way he handled the cortese row either. I think destroy us was a bit strong mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hypochondriac Posted 16 January, 2014 Share Posted 16 January, 2014 Why ?? Good players don't always make good managers/ chairman etc. Leave MLT to get on with his media career, he is the past we need to look at now and future. I agree with NC desire to keep certain elements away from the club... Not harmed us has it ??? Why does everyone forget matts involvement with the chap who lived with his parents?!?!?! Who said anything about managers or chairman? Odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think destroy us was a bit strong mind Agreed. No-one is suggesting that Le Tiss has any sort of serious business acumen or that he might not have been better off keeping his own counsel at times in the last few years, but in my mind he's always wanted the best for the club and should at the very least be welcomed there. He's a great asset to the club and city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, having sampled some of the corperate hospitality I think it lacks the extra oomph that ex players could add by turning up and having a chat or even in the president/leibherr suits have an ex player as the host. Would entice more people IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldNick Posted 16 January, 2014 Share Posted 16 January, 2014 I think you'll find that a lot of the ex-saints organisation have never stopped attending St Mary's. I think they may even have a box? They're a good bunch' date=' having met them at a London Saints event a couple of years ago.

Roger Posted 16 January, 2014 Share Posted 16 January, 2014 So all the freebies are back on tap, that's good news for the old guard, the normal supporter will gain nothing from that. MLT is a superb player in our history but forget not he was close to finishing our club off due to a bad decision/company. NC was right to keep the snipers at arms length. It is interesting that FB was contacted, no doubt an old friend at the club probably not by the hierarchy. i suspect ML knew of the past problems with the old guard and would have supported NC decisions Complete rubbish.

solentstars Posted 16 January, 2014 Share Posted 16 January, 2014 Welcome back matt and lawrie and the real Southampton family and glad liebharrs are involved again has it was there money which saved us and hopefully now have a new chief executive who can sale the box's at St Marys and let the catering and commercial side be run by experts .rather than sacking staff every 5 minutes and court battles over bills over silly things.

OldNick Posted 17 January, 2014 Share Posted 17 January, 2014 Nick mate that post is one of your most ignorant. Matt pays for his tickets and gets no freebies nor does Franny. The person who rang Franny was very close to NC. If there is to be any positivity from NC's departure let's celebrate some healing of wounds. The more people pulling together the better it will be for our team.Duncan I also will love MLT be given the respect he deserves and if he can become an ambassador for club that would be superb. The timing of the call seems bizarre, the club was in turmoil and somebody thinks about phoning FB and MLT ! I do hope we do not go back to the Wilde days where the hangers on were in full force. They dont want to pay but if its a freebie then they will put their shoes on Still enjoying the book by the way, I may as well give it a plug for you, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
