saintalan Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 THought there was only one person would beat me to it!
kpturner Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 Complete wasters the lot of 'em. They are to blame for all our woes.
Chap in the Chapel Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 Wonderful news. Now then - can they finish the job and (hopefully) draw the line in the sand that we really, really need?
Foxstone Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 Potentially we have turned a corner ! I hope and pray that this is the catalyst that suddenly improves our fortunes and moves the club forward after 5 years of sh1t and mediocrity !
Badger Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 Good news. At what stage,will the Pinnacle names be known ?
saintstr1 Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 How about someone now tells us who this consortium consists of.
Evil Monkey Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 Interesting that the deal is for SLH and not just the club.
mrs woody Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 Also on official web site http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/articles/article.php?page_id=11782
Pancake Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 Interesting that the deal is for SLH and not just the club. It says its for the Company's assets, not the actual Company.
Northampton Saint Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 Hurrah - at last It has gone on for ever - I was beginning to think that nothing was ever going to happen but the worst. Well done Matt - let's hope they bring lots of cash!
Rational Rich Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 Interesting that the deal is for SLH and not just the club. It's for the assets of SLH, including the club. After the sale, SLH will be left behind as a shell, the funds distributed to its creditors and then wound up.
DT Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 Joke i take it yup. 21 days to sell the club now to them. Beats 48 hours...
SaintRobbie Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 (edited) THE Matthew Le Tissier backed Pinnacle consortium have entered an exclusivity period. http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/4406782.Saints_enter_exclusivity_with_bidder/ Told ya! Now let's enjoy the new era. Edited 29 May, 2009 by SaintRobbie
Pancake Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 Thought he was sole administrator. Probably my bad. No, Hudson was appointed at the same time by BT.
Micky Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 Complete wasters the lot of 'em. They are to blame for all our woes. Sorry - who are...???
DT Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 21 days takes us to another Friday...are they doing this on purpose? ps cheers pancake
happiness stan Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 phew! Matty will save us! Bring on League One (minus 10)
Saint Fan CaM Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 Some good news and on a Friday to boot - who would have guessed it. And who knows, perhaps there's some Irish behind Pinnacle too?
The9 Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 phew! Matty will save us! Bring on League One (minus 10) I wonder if the whole "SLH can't pay the staff" thing was stagemanaged to illustrate that SFC wasn't connected to the debt..? Conspiracy! (And if so, I hope that's what they told the staff...) Yeah, ok, it's a bit Scooby-Doo.
Ludwig Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 Thank god for that. Now let's get a wealthy owner to take over from them.
OldNick Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 fantastic that the club looks to have been saved. What a relief. Well done Farmer for your work.
The9 Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 LMAO I laughed louder at the confused "is that a joke" response...
JustMike Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 woo hoo :-) although i want to know how wealthy their backer is ;-)
Evo Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 That's about all there is to be said really. Except maybe 'LifeLongMilk, Maggie Thatcher, Paul Allen your boys took one hell of a beating'.
Master Bates Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 Oh No!!! Farmer quick!!!! Delete the story and leave the link, or the forum gets sued!!!!!!!!!!!
OldNick Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 does anyone know who apart from MLT is the money behind this.I think it was Doggface who said the plans were exciting.
EastleighSoulBoy Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 Pinnacle out! Lowe in! Oh! we've tried that..... ....twice.
DT Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 I hope the Pin bit of Pinnacle is Pini Zahavi The 'le' bit at the end is of course our Matt No idea who nac is.
kpturner Posted 29 May, 2009 Posted 29 May, 2009 Sorry - who are...???Somebody wake him up I am backing up DT's "Pinnacle Out" campaign of course.
