Very old news Mr Thumwood, and common knowledge amongst Southampton supporters. Nothing to do with our current selling of players though.....
Ian - that's fine and I'm sure there was overspend (as has been reported, and as you know does happen in very many major construction projects). But you're suggesting that this overspend is the reason we're selling players, to cover that debt. Hence my assertion you're talking bollocks. Because.....well......that is bollocks.
Hi there mate, I'd never done a PM on this board, so I wrote on your thread itself: Time to scrap points deductions for administration? (Page 3) "To ian Thumwood, author of the original article: That's a fine article, and I wondered ... if I may reproduce it for the forthcoming Reading v Portsmouth game on the Reading FC forum "Royals Rendezvous" - clearly crediting you and the Not 606 forum (and giving the link, when up, on this very thread...).. You'll probably know that there is no great love between our teams, but I think it would be very good for our members to hear the common sense reasoning you give from the Pompey side. Of course, if you're against the idea just drop a line here to tell me so ... Cheers, daib0 " and Pompeymeowth replied: "Best thing to do, is PM him Daibo" On here in peace, but if you don't want your words to go anywhere else, then no worry. But I think it'd get a lot of viewings and a few comments back ... Cheers, daib0 (David)
