Made in Southampton Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 CB Fry. He said with some authority it will all be announced on South Today later and MLT was buying champagne in the offie near him. He did add that he had made this all up but that could be a double bluff :-) LOL You remind me of the mob in 'Life of Brian' when hes trying to deny hes the messiah. Brian: I'm not the Messiah! Will you please listen? I am not the Messiah, do you understand? Honestly! Girl: Only the true Messiah denies His divinity. Brian: What? Well, what sort of chance does that give me? All right! I am the Messiah! Followers: He is! He is the Messiah! Brian: Now, **** off!
John B Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 Are Ant and Dec taking us over? Cool. I'll have to learn which is which. They Stand Alphabetically I was told Ant on the Left Dec on the Right
Yeti Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 I was speaking today to a fairly well known BBC sports journalist based in Southampton who 'speaks to Mark Fry daily.' He is 'very worried about the future for Saints' and Mark Fry is 'sounding more and more agitated each time he speaks to him on the phone.' Make of that what you want.

Followers: He is! He is the Messiah! Brian: Now, **** off! I resent that. There is absolutley no question of the validity of the statement I made earlier regarding Matt Le Tissier and tonight's South Today.
thorpie the sinner Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 so south today is our last chance theoretically today!!! never thought I would hear myself say that!!
Made in Southampton Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 I resent that. There is absolutley no question of the validity of the statement I made earlier regarding Matt Le Tissier and tonight's South Today. It wasnt a pop at you and I think you've clearly missed the point. It was a reply to the other guys reply to your quote because clearly no matter what you said he was going to think your original quote was true ie the messiah ??? Never mind..
EFM Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 I resent that. There is absolutley no question of the validity of the statement I made earlier regarding Matt Le Tissier and tonight's South Today. Just as I thought, you are ITK!
Made in Southampton Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 Just as I thought, you are ITK! Hold up your sandel !
Saint Charlie Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 Maybe South Today will mention something. Also, just because Fry wanted to know his prefered bidder by the end of today that doesn't neccessary mean he would announce it today. Lots of things are obviously going on behind the scenes.
Gingeletiss Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 As someone else said on here, all those that profess to be ITK, without facts to back it up, are in fact FOS. Give it a rest guys, giving it bags of 'look at me' on here, all you're doing is *****ng people off. MB and nickh, and Saint_stevo.....hang your heads in shame. IMHO of course.
SaintNeil90 Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 Im sick of this now. Meridian just summed it up really: They have had a month, deadlines have come and gone and no deal has been agreed. Teams are not offering money for players because they hope we go bust and get them for free.
maxi_sopez Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 SACK THE ITK'S, ban from the forum i say, jesus who is sad enough to get a kick from showing off and making up stuff to look cool on a fecking forum....
Made in Southampton Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 Ex-Leper: Okay, sir, my final offer: half a shekel for an old ex-Premiership club? Brian: Did you say "ex-Premiership"? Ex-Leper: That's right, sir, 16 years behind a veil and proud of it, sir. Brian: Well, what happened? Ex-Leper: Oh, Rupert lowe did, sir. Brian: Rupert Lowe? Ex-Leper: Yes sir, bloody nob, sir. Bless you! Brian: Who Screwed you? Ex-Leper: Lowe did, sir. I was hopping along, minding my own business, all of a sudden, up he comes, Screws the Saints fans over! One minute I'm a Footballer with a trade, next minute my clubs gone. Not so much as a by-your-leave! "You're screwed, mate." Bloody nob jockey.

Thats fine Ginge put me on ignore. I have at no time tried to big it up but share info with people who who might want to know any snippets i get.The people who pass on info are not investors /buyers or even chairman just people who are close to the news and goings on at the club. As i say put me on ignore Id be delighted . There is no need for me to hang my head in shame and MB stevo etc.

As i say put me on ignore Id be delighted . There is no need for me to hang my head in shame and MB stevo etc. Same ere, i had an e-mail today saying we were going down the pan, so i scoured here and 606 to see if anything was about, saw there was something on 606 so thought i would share it here. Maybe copy and pasting it with quotes etc was a bad idea but i was in a rush, all i wanted to do was share some info i thought fellow fans might be interested in. I have done it before and looked a plonker (as DT often reminds me) And yes, each year i try to get a completely made up rumour on deadline day printed on BBC's transfer rumours page but that is merely me having a laugh, im sure nobody believed Jan Koller or Carsten Jancker were hawking there way here or ratifying deals.....
Burger Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 but it still better than getting nothing.....what else would go on on this forum if these guys didn't try and tell us a little of what they believe ......
thorpie the sinner Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 The sniping is bloody ridiculous on here! if you don't want to listen to snippets, good or bad, get off the forum and look at the OS all day!!! i for one appreciate the nuggets as they are usually meant in good faith! As nick says, they are sharing what they here. Its not their fault if it doesn't come to fruition!! Keep em coming boys, always good for banter if nothing else!!

Agree, but if you don't KNOW anything it's best to make that obvious otherwise people get their hopes up. If it's a rumour they've heard just say so.
Ewell Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 What I find a tad sad is not the ITK posters divulging their snippets but the snipers and forum floggers reveling in there failure to have accurate information. If you know or indeed reckon they are full of **** then why cling onto their every word? Why not understand this is a public forum and realize there are snippets of truth and untruths but very few have the details of what is actually going on. Just relax have a beer and take it with a pinch of salt. After all it is Friday FFS!
Gingeletiss Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 A couple of years we've had this sh*t. Helpmerhonda..LLS..StDavid, they all got slated for posting rumour as fact. Now we have the 2009ers, doing the same, so what's changed, why's their rumours OK. As I said, post away, but back it up.....
maxi_sopez Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 i wasnt really having a go, i just fear all the itk's are being taken for a ride by the people giving them the info....i have changed my mind hearing the rumours are more intresting than nothing, so even if it is ****** keep it coming peace to all saints web members!
saintjay77 Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 As someone else said on here, all those that profess to be ITK, without facts to back it up, are in fact FOS. Give it a rest guys, giving it bags of 'look at me' on here, all you're doing is *****ng people off. MB and nickh, and Saint_stevo.....hang your heads in shame. IMHO of course. I wont vouch for all of them but it seems MB just passes on snippets he gets as they come to him and he has often been right ahead of announcments. Its usually stuff that happens the same day unlike some previous ITK wannabee's who claim dates times and amounts. Im happy to take MB's info and trust there is a good chance of it coming off most of the time. The rest of it when posted as rumour or backed up with places its been lifted from is OK too. Stuff that gets lifted and printed on here as if its fact or ITK hacks me off though. The comment from 606 is a prime example. while mildly interesting it would have not had the same ammount of brown trousers had 606 been mentioned in the 1st place.
derry Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 FWIW I'd put money on us being taken over. There's nothing in it for Fry to not do a deal (pretty much anyway). Lets just hope I'm not proved wrong....:cool: I've been told how much, who and pretty close, but I'm still sitting on my hands. It doesn't look like a done deal yet. And the names mean nothing to me.

Saint Bowood Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 Echo update ..... talks continuing into the evening...........

Echo's what i said the other day when MB was getting it in the neck. This is a forum, to share info. If you would rather not read the little bits and bobs people post sit and home and read through the guardian. I for one welcome the bits of info, gives something to chat about.
saint77 Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 Have South Today mentioned anything yet? every thing apart from saints not one mention
Gingeletiss Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 so south today is our last chance theoretically today!!! never thought I would hear myself say that!! That saloon was closed.............
thorpie the sinner Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 That saloon was closed............. I am hoping this time next Friday, we will be discussing a new manager and possible players for league 1!!!!!
saintjay77 Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 I accept. I was in a rush and should have put where it came from no worries and i wasnt having a dig. im sure if someone else had posted it you would have felt the same way as the rest of us lol
saintjay77 Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 I am hoping this time next Friday, we will be discussing a new manager and possible players for league 1!!!!! im sure i have seen that said a few times too lol
thorpie the sinner Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 im sure i have seen that said a few times too lol 58 times to be exact lol!!!
saintjay77 Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 58 times to be exact lol!!! im sure there have been more "Fridays" than that. did we only dare to dream to talk about managers that many of them?
Master Bates Posted 15 May, 2009 Author Posted 15 May, 2009 so south today is our last chance theoretically today!!! never thought I would hear myself say that!! Nothing mentioned at all, not even the stock exchange announcement about talks terminated. They're happy to say "deal imminent" and "deal in 24hrs", but never what's actually happening
Toadhall Saint Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 Nothing mentioned at all, not even the stock exchange announcement about talks terminated. They're happy to say "deal imminent" and "deal in 24hrs", but never what's actually happening Just perhaps they are as in the dark as us?
CHAPEL END CHARLIE Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 Well D-Day seems to have been postponed after all - where is Group Captain Stagg when you need him (that's one for any saintsweb historians out there)
Toadhall Saint Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 Well D-Day seems to have been postponed after all - where is Group Captain Stagg when you need him (that's one for any saintsweb historians out there) What a weather forecast eh?
Master Bates Posted 15 May, 2009 Author Posted 15 May, 2009 Just perhaps they are as in the dark as us? But we knew about the LSE announcement, so surely they knew. As SLH is dead, does that mean we stop getting LSE chicken feed after today or are we still a plc type creature?
lenwilkins Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 Well D-Day seems to have been postponed after all - where is Group Captain Stagg when you need him (that's one for any saintsweb historians out there) I know that Stalin got p1ssed off waiting too.
gjphilsaint Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 I am hoping this time next Friday, we will be discussing a new manager and possible players for league 1!!!!! OMG imagine that you have fallen through some wormhole in time from 2001 and landed in front of the PC to read that post!!!
SFC Forever Posted 15 May, 2009 Posted 15 May, 2009 If as the echo is still showing the talking continues there must be a good reason. Either fry wants some more or the Consortium don't like the way the books are looking or the way the fence seems to be placed. None of us know exactly what they are discussing but if this is last chance saloon I hope they keep talking until a solution is reached.

Those guys will go on talking and haggling over the precise legal wording of documents for ever. It's down to the legal terminology and the contracts: which means that either side can still walk away if their lawyers see something they don't like and they can't agree on compromise wording.
