This needs saying - SISU have saved the club (13 Viewers)

[Deleted member 5849]

Really, we have to congratulate SISU on their sharp business practice to keep us going.

Let's not forget the Ricoh was unviable, it was move or die. Did we want a chance for our club to be around in 20-50 years time, or carry on as they were and probably go out of business in a year’s time?

The clock was ticking on us being wound up before SISU saved the day. And that, despite SISU also absorbing £millions of debt in the ensuing years, the club had continued to haemorrhage money.

Now the rent agreement is broken we've got rid of that millstone, and we're in control of our own destiny. Next stop is a new ground at a decent price wherever is most cost-efficient. Because of that we’ve finally ended the uncertainty hanging over our future, and put ourselves in a position to compete at the highest levels of the game.

I think that we could have kept Wilson if we'd sold the car park myself, so Sisu missed a trick there.

We could have bought the Ricoh with the Wilson money if SISU hadn't taken the piss so much. Or even for less than the legal bills
from trying to get the Ricoh on the cheap. No wonder you lot are so proud of them.

SISU to be congratulated on their sharp business practice! - One failure after another, businessmen like Igwe, Brody, Dullieu and Fisher have proven complete failures.

Are we any more likely to be around in 20-50 years now, as we were when SISU took over?

Some might say it would have been better if the club had bitten the bullet and gone into administration before SISU took over and 'saved the day', maybe even to have gone into liquidation and starting again. We would at least have hit rock bottom and looked to make our way back up the ladder, whereas at the moment it still feels we are on a downward path.

New ground - where? Do you really believe SISU have the wherewithal to build a new ground? Of course if so the club will still be paying rent, only to SISU. Oh, and if we put ourselves in a position to compete at the highest levels we will need a ground like the Ricoh with its 30,000 capacity rather than a flat pack cheapo ground of 12 - 15,000.

Your post is so full of holes it has to be a wind up. So i guess if you're fishing, I've bitten and you win!

looking forward to their next life saving improvements, soon it will be the perfect place for insomniacs, yawn inducing entertainment and a nice quite place to sleep without anyone else around to bother you.

why are you courting insults? I understand many trolls doing it because they enjoy the attention but that isn't you, you normally get quite upset.

If i had have agreed with all that I would have given that a like.

Yep Highest level for sure ointlaugh:

 

[Noggin]

he's right though we are very lucky they saved us, they wanted to help out Southampton but luckily it was us that got the help. I imagine they are hating it 3rd in the Premiership when they could have a nice spot in league two staked out for next year.

Exactly. That's why things need and needed to change. Failure was inevitable staying where we were, that's the reality.

Our future would only be saved, once SISU go. At present, their isn't a future at all.

To be fair you would have to worry about the credibility of anybody who could come out with that sort of crap...

So we went to Northampton and it has been a success all the way since.

So just over an hour ago a real person sits in his residence/workplace and decides to write something to try and wind supposed fellow fans up on football forum. Get a life springs to mind, it's all been done before !

Haha, I didn't realise it was April 1st.

This is definitely a post to keep for the archives. In 2-3 years time when we are still at the Ricoh, with no sign of a new ground, and sisu incapable of negotiating a new rental deal with Wasps, this will need re-quoting.

 

[Grendel]

Its funny how these clever people on here don't realise what this is really about.

Walks up to the trap and falls straight in

It's the PREMIER LEAGUE ffs! Not been the Premiership for nearly 10 years.

Unless you mean Wasps? They're in the Premiership.

Think the thing is, people are now so entrenched in their views the blinkers are on and they are only looking in one direction.

Obviously NW is making a point, but it is now lost amongst the tumbleweed.

Nice being back to the us and them fisticuffs. I missed it those 3 weeks we had a degree of unity.

About 3 sodding days!

I thought it extended from Gillngham to Yeovil at least.

Mind, they we just had the row about true supporters didn't we!

You're right, 3 days it was!!
