Window Cleaner Posted 30 April, 2009 Share Posted 30 April, 2009 "He's" been registered for two years an' all....joined around the time the Allen rumour was building up a head of steam..... The salient point probably being that he's been looking in these last 2 years and has finally decided that whatever you may say someone will take it seriously and not consider you as a rank idiot. Having mastered this fact it's easy to overcome an eventual stage fright and take the plunge for that all important first post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panda Posted 30 April, 2009 Share Posted 30 April, 2009 Hang on a minute - Royston Saint may not be a Saint who lives in Royston but ROYSTON SMITH on the Council and Royston will know what is going on if any one outside of St Mary's does because the Council may step in at some point over the stadium if other option fail ... certainly ITK then?

dubai_phil Posted 30 April, 2009 Share Posted 30 April, 2009 Latest news just in. According to the driver of the bus that goes to the station, a new syndicate is emerging as favourites in their own estimation to acquire the club. Apparently tommac, has dug out his old forum threads and discovered that he has links to some bloke from Sheffield Wednesday or Everton or something and who also knows Lowe. Apparently Lowe is lined up as Dof, this other bloke is Chairman and tommac is to take the critical role of Media Manager. At this time, sources are still trying to ascertain whether there is a link to somebody associated with the Beach Boys In a media statement it is believed that tommac mentioned something about a down-turn in the second hand aviation business due to a flood of cancelled orders and that owning a football team offered a far safer return on investment. We are still trying to check whether said bus driver has previously been linked to Sky News or if this is the result of a bad night out on Bullfrogs.

Of course the location is a diversionary tactic - it would be a real give a way if Royston Smith used Southampton for his location wouldn't it? He might as well put Civic Centre just so we all spot it straight away!

Saint Charlie Posted 30 April, 2009 Share Posted 30 April, 2009 (edited) I just saw Javi de Pedro walking along holding hands with Rudi Skacel. They both told me Paul Allen is taking over and will appoint Steve Wigley as Manager with Saint David coming in as Chief Scout. HelpmeRhonda will be tea lady. Also Skacel said he is close to signing, maybe Friday. Edited 30 April, 2009 by Saint Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off to the jolly old airport shortly for that arduous adventure back to you lot in the land of the Swine flu. Means you'll have to cope without me on the most important Friday we've seen since the last one. I trust you all to ensure that we continue to track down the whereabouts of the household name, find out who the mystery tommac consortium really have on loan from Everton or whatever and make sure you have the valium ready in case it really is Barry or Rupes Mugabe or whoever. Somehow I just think I'm gonna miss all the fun Or not as usual damn just remembered that I forgot to go to the dodgy second hand shop down the road to get the "I told you so trophy" to give out at the forum match next week.

Barry the Badger Posted 1 May, 2009 Share Posted 1 May, 2009 Being a Saints fan is a funny thing.

slickmick Posted 1 May, 2009 Share Posted 1 May, 2009 Any chance one of your three is getting fed up with the other two. I've said all season, the team need more steel. We were bought by Flav alone, Bernie came later and then Mittal. But the fact is Flav had enough money to buy the club by himself. As for the Property developers. The ground isnt worth much so are they looking at Staplewood and the farm and then moving on or is it a coincidence they are in that business?

Victor Posted 1 May, 2009 Share Posted 1 May, 2009 your getting close! Surely the conservative deputy leader of the council of a largish city would be educated enough to know it should be "You're" getting close. Or is this just another diversionary tactic? Does anyone know if he actually lives in/near Southampton? Mind you, a man of his station (can't say 'background' as I don't know it) probably has several homes.

I thought it was mentioned that there was likely to be an announcement before the forest game regarding a rescue package! It also was said that if nothing happened by the forest game the club could cease to be.
