Would we be in todays published fixture list, not to mention the League Cup draw, if this was a genuine concern?

 

The quote from the BS is a couple of months old.

 

Cannot see how the Sun can get info that no one else can!

 

I personaly feel it is the Suns lack of info more like which makes that story. They are probably not aware how advanced things are with pinnacle.

 

This I believe is a tribute to pinnacle and all involved that no news or info is leaking out.

but fundamentaly its correct if Pinnacle dont go forward then we will go bankrupt unless we have another waiting to pick up the pieces.

I doubt it has any more info. Farmer / Doggface Im sure would let us know if there was going to be a hold up..well i hope they would

No he is not, quite the opposite if you read between the lines. He found Rupert an 'interesting challenge' and his ideas somewhat 'out there' compared to the footballing knowledge and experience possessed by Strachan. In a sort of twisted manner, WGS enjoyed the banter between them, the ex pro and the football novice if you like.

 

He credits Lowe with persisting to try and impose ideas (some Hockey based!!!) against stiff oppostion from all quarters. I think he admired Lowe's spirit and single mindedness, but also hinted that this would be his downfall in the football arena.

 

WGS is an interesting and unique charachter himself and I think he found Rupert equally unique and in that respect found him 'amusing'. He may of complimented Lowe on his supposed business acumen but he is anything but complimentary to him on football issues, more patronising & belittling TBF.

Is this knowledge a hint of who you have been talking to recently then Farmer??

Yes technically it is correct, but it is scaremongering.

 

What about the non refundable deposit which could be used as a lifeline if a replacement buyer needs to be found if all goes tits up. What about the swiss co waiting in the wings.

 

I just think the sun story is based on no info.

Combined with Wotte's recent comments about being finally able to work with a Chairman who understands Football...tells you all you need to know about how Lowe is viewed....

 

As for the Farmer...when he posts, at least it's not written in Morse Code....cheers

Has anyone seen the snippet in the Sun today? Won't post it, or a link, but in summary it says, Southampton will be hot favourites for the Bluesquare Premier League if this that and the other.

 

The Peak moment will be Friday, when the deal is Crowned following last minute Summit talks with the Top Brass.

 

Until them I'm staying here in my Troughicle.

 

Ahhhh...'Pinnacle' eh?

 

Also my favourite Golf Balls....let's hope no-one gets Frostbite on the way to the Summit eh????

I would love it, just love it if I find out it's done Friday.....;-)

I found it funny how Wotte changed his spots and is trying to pander to the masses. Reinventing himself.

Farmer is a reliable poster as far as im concerned, and his summary was interesting as though they may have been in conversation.

Farmer, you have my sympathy, Im sure your inbox has gone nuts tonight.

 

I might just work through the night and sleep through tomorrow if its likely to be even more hectic than today!!

 

Who am I kidding, I'm as excited at the possibility of finally hearing what we all want to hear as the next fan!!

What people have to remeber is that if it doesnt happen Friday, it is not the end of Pinnacle or the club. Friday is the last day exculsivity thats all. Also that the deadline is 23:59:59 so nothing might happen until Monday.

 

(exit2 gets down on his knees and prays it does happen on Friday:) )

yes but it means that an other interested party can gazump Pinnacle, something surely they wouldnt want to happen so is it not in their best interest to get it sorted. Still dont know why its taken so long

Exactly jm,

 

From what I have heard yesterday, there is a real possibility that this could happen.

 

 

I have heard pinnacle are looking for an extension till tuesday & that fry is playing hard ball & will not budge on the deadline. It is not too late & they are trying to resolve things but this could go into extra time & let's hope as usual mlt can curl one in to the top corner when we need it most. If anyone has an update on the above please post it for my sanity.

My worst fears are getting closer. The Pinnacle consortium has not been at all impressive so far, and if they fumble the ball right at the very start it doesn't look good for the medium to long term.

Doesn't bother me if the Pinnacal lot don't get their shiz sorted by tomorrow and someone else gazumps thems. Having a club is the most important thing, I'm happy that there are other potential buyers out there that can step in.

 

One thing that makes me think that it'll be ok though is the fact that the Directors have all been put forward to the FA. I think Pinnacle will clinch it tomorrow and we'll all be happy :)
