I'm not from Hull, it's a ****hole and a blemish on the North. And you lost all credibility when you said "imma".
Intrigued!! How do you know Cortese told Marcus to buy us?? Do you know what Cortese's position in the Lieberr corporation was before coming Saints chief Exec
Don't think Cortese technically worked for the Leibherrs..he had some kind of finance job with specialisation in sports. Had been watching the developments at Saints and thought it would interest Markus. Talked him into investing and Markus said only if Nicola ran it. That's what Nicola has said in a few interviews.
I think there's a little more financial connection than that, Fran. Cortese advised Liebherr on a few financial things. But, yeah, that's pretty much how it was. Of course, they were great friends, hence the wonderful and tragic story of the Watch.
im as black as a white bed sheet. havent you seen our motto? "racism aint saintly" all colours welcome at st marys
Dunno. Interesting thought though. The watch promise was one of the things about Markus, that set him apart, too.
And markus said ok as long as you run it..... Where have people been the last two years. Especially those who judge nicola and don't even know about his role in saving saints. Shameful.
Short memories mate. Plus, people very quickly decide when they've finished being thankful. My memory is lousy, but not on important things, and I still thank the day Nicola decided we were worth having a look at. BTW, where's that Jen..? Grubs up, gal. You finished with Noggin the Nog yet..?
