Tamesaint Posted 23 December, 2008 Posted 23 December, 2008 Didn't Wilde have Lowe's seat in the directors box removed when he took over? No idea. He probably did. In which case, why oh why has he joined forces with Lowe now???
Dalek2003 Posted 23 December, 2008 Posted 23 December, 2008 I still have not had a reply as to the truth about the failure to appoint Glenn Hoddle, but I am still on the case.
offix Posted 23 December, 2008 Posted 23 December, 2008 Wes, many thanks for the feedback on the AGM. To be honest, I feel worse for reading it though. +1 on both statements
eelpie Posted 23 December, 2008 Posted 23 December, 2008 I would rather be stuck in a room with Hitler than a room full off that lot. Chorley, ever so manly with the ol' coin throwing, at least hit him. I don't believe Chorley is a shareholder, and technically shouldn't have been at the AGM - at least he wasn't a year ago, and was only allowed to stay at the AGM then following a vote by shareholders at last years meeting.. So who let him in? lol
Wes Tender Posted 23 December, 2008 Posted 23 December, 2008 HaHa! Nice one. What's that in his hand? Is it a tissue of lies?
Scudamore Posted 23 December, 2008 Posted 23 December, 2008 HaHa! Nice one. What's that in his hand? Is it a tissue of lies? It's a self penned anonymous love letter...
Big Bad Bob Posted 23 December, 2008 Posted 23 December, 2008 Possibly, but then the chances of Lowe winning the FA cup are f**k-all, so its a moot question. How about a runners up medal
alpine_saint Posted 23 December, 2008 Posted 23 December, 2008 How about a runners up medal Runners-up isnt winning, and we were miles away from making a fight of that final. We could hardly get the ball of them for the last 10mins, FFS.
Scudamore Posted 23 December, 2008 Posted 23 December, 2008 Runners-up isnt winning, and we were miles away from making a fight of that final. We could hardly get the ball of them for the last 10mins, FFS. Bet you were miles away from the final...

We could hardly get the ball of them for the last 10mins, FFS. Gosh Alps, you've really let the Austrian sense of humour get to you!! Lighten up, football's not life and death you know

So who let him in? lol Some shareholder had given him his proxy! Bet that shareholder wishes he hadn't now :smt044
alpine_saint Posted 23 December, 2008 Posted 23 December, 2008 Bet you were miles away from the final... I flew back to Southampton in the hope of participating in a bloody great street party if we won - I knew there was no chance of getting a ticket so didnt even try.
Big Bad Bob Posted 23 December, 2008 Posted 23 December, 2008 (edited) Didn't Wilde have Lowe's seat in the directors box removed when he took over? Dcik measuring competition is how I was going to describe it earlier....the whole things has become that now. Do you think Javi won the Spanish lottery the other day? He could run the club better than these collective Narcisusses Edited 23 December, 2008 by Big Bad Bob get my Greek mythology right, dammit
St Landrew Posted 24 December, 2008 Posted 24 December, 2008 I understand that Richard Chorley was removed from the AGM, after running to the top table and throwing coins at the representatives there. I may not always, or even often, agree with RC, but I can't doubt the bloke's passion is for his football club. He's certainly a fan who puts his money where his mouth is, whether it may be misguided or not.

Just a shame that every jesture he does makes him look like a total plum.

OldNick Posted 24 December, 2008 Posted 24 December, 2008 I flew back to Southampton in the hope of participating in a bloody great street party if we won - I knew there was no chance of getting a ticket so didnt even try. I thought you lived in Southampton then Alps
alpine_saint Posted 24 December, 2008 Posted 24 December, 2008 I thought you lived in Southampton then Alps Nope. Lived in Austria from 1997 to late 2004, went back to Austria March 2008.
OldNick Posted 24 December, 2008 Posted 24 December, 2008 Maybe Mr Lowe etc won't sell to Mr Crouch, the one man who admits he made a mistake but then corrected it a.s.a.p. unlike certain other people.I dont thin kRL would sell to him unless it was a fantastic price but perhaps MW would if it was above the going rate.
OldNick Posted 24 December, 2008 Posted 24 December, 2008 Whatever. If driving up to matches from Cardiff home and away is letting the club down then I must be a right bastard. If you read my post I think you'll find my stance was anything but supportive of Lowe. Fantasist my arseI dont know you except by reputation and the last thing I would point at you is ever4 letting the club down.
Fowllyd Posted 24 December, 2008 Posted 24 December, 2008 I still have not had a reply as to the truth about the failure to appoint Glenn Hoddle, but I am still on the case. Keep up the good work - we'll wait for you to get back to us. If it's as good as the theory you propounded a while ago (and there was me thinking that one was the truth!) then it'll be worth the wait.
stthrobber Posted 24 December, 2008 Posted 24 December, 2008 But.....gasp.....his head is too big for his body
stthrobber Posted 24 December, 2008 Posted 24 December, 2008 I dont know you except by reputation and the last thing I would point at you is ever4 letting the club down. Thank you Nick. I think some people have a failed grasp of reality sometimes. I'm one of many fans who have become totally disillusioned with the seemingly endless circle of b1tching and teddy throwing, the spin, the egos and all the other things that are stopping our major shareholders actually working together for the good of the club.
harvey Posted 24 December, 2008 Posted 24 December, 2008 I've got to agree with most views on this thread, that it was a sad day for everyone involved with SFC yesterday. It was made even worse for me when I caught a sneak preview of some our possible january loan signings http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=f99_1229947584
trousers Posted 24 December, 2008 Posted 24 December, 2008 One nagging question.... Why doesn't a news story about someone throwing coins at a football club chairman make the national press/media? Have we really sunk that low(e) that no-one outside of the Southampton bubble takes a blind bit of notice what is happening at the club, no matter how newsworthy? Surely this happening at any other 'big' (sh) club would have made the national media? Unless 'someone' at the club with friends in the media is suppressing the story?
NickG Posted 24 December, 2008 Posted 24 December, 2008 eventually found the positive in this! Lowe / Crouch / LMc / Wilde / SISA etc are not news worthy and therefore will cause us less embaressment!

Give it to Ron Posted 24 December, 2008 Posted 24 December, 2008 eventually found the positive in this! Lowe / Crouch / LMc / Wilde / SISA etc are not news worthy and therefore will cause us less embaressment! Have a look at the Telegraph.
NickG Posted 24 December, 2008 Posted 24 December, 2008 who is embaressed? sweeping it under the carpet is embarassing I am, by the last god knows how many years of management and boardroom changes. think most fans are, aren't we?

Danny Posted 24 December, 2008 Posted 24 December, 2008 There's a transcript of the AGM now, too: http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/4000947.See_today_s_Daily_Echo_for_a_blow_by_blow_account_of_Saints__AGM/
saint lard Posted 24 December, 2008 Posted 24 December, 2008 Richard Chorley has just had an extensive live interview on SSN,i posted a very brief summary on the "Chorley"thread. Good interview it was too. I'm sure part or if not whole will be repeated at some stages throughout the day.
saint1977 Posted 24 December, 2008 Posted 24 December, 2008 So come on then, what evidence do you have that I am a PR Plant. If I am a plant, as you say, there must be indisputible proof that I am. You sir, are what they call a ****. Who says "come on then to a fellow Saints fan? I think you really have outed yourself this time. I've tried to be reasonable with you but we don't want non-Saints fans on the site. Ta.
Morph Posted 25 December, 2008 Posted 25 December, 2008 Been gone a while mate....is that Loadsamoney and Bugg@rallMoney?? Tim, It's this guy : http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=JHmJEpwMvfk Merry Xmas and thanks for your comments on the 3rd Half on Radio Hampshire which are always most entertaining. Kind Regards Morph
Morph Posted 25 December, 2008 Posted 25 December, 2008 With regards the AGM, a superb opening question from Duncan and delighted to see that Leon was in good form. The days of Lowe, Cowen and now Jones are now well and truly numbered don't you think? Time will tell Only problem is I don't see any investors out there ready to take over at this particular point in time. Regards Morph
Norm Posted 25 December, 2008 Posted 25 December, 2008 Who says "come on then to a fellow Saints fan? I think you really have outed yourself this time. I've tried to be reasonable with you but we don't want non-Saints fans on the site. Ta.:smt078 And a happy Christmas to you too! Excuse me but who appointed you the guardian of 'Right and Wrong'? I don't much care for this as it's turning into a witch hunt re this poster (DPS). If you don't agree with him, that's fine but please don't start calling people non-Saints fans. That is not helping matters. We are divided enough as a fan base without all that sort of carp. ps, happy Christmas;)

Regards Morph I don't know that they are numbered Morph, with no investors ready to take over and Lowe apparently not willing to sell his shares to Leon, then what is that alternative except administration? I just wish these people could work together for the good of the club rather than fight against each other which only weakens and damages what is left of it
