I assume this means NOT Power???
I did hear a rumour ... and it may only be a rumour but no one else has picked up on it but you can take it with a pinch of salt as im not sure how reliable it is..
Rupert Lowe might be involved in the New Consortium - I believe hes a personal friend of SSW ... and has been looking for a new venture since leaving Southampton ... and he lives in Newbury
Might he be at the head of his???
I have to say that Im only really interested in a consortium that involves Bill Power - the trust and the fans ... not with the same old idiots involved in any capacity - if Wills, Gray, Diamanis or Holt are involved I dont want it thank you very much!

Some of you people are unbeliavable. You would rather that the club went to the wall as long as you had the forum to moan about it.
Try to think of it as a) The continuation of the club, b) The possibility of some good quality signings, c) The possibility of a ground refurbishment.
Quite frankly as a supporter of 40 years standing I am glad that the "political bullshit" that you lot have been spouting will surely be coming to an end!- Trust my arse!

Sturrocks going to back anyone investing in the club that gives him additional transfer funds and /or wage budget. Fuck me its not Rocket Science is it. |

Then again, Sturrock releseased Peacock from Wednesday and they seem to be getting on ok now. It depends on what exactly the circumstances were at Southampton when Sturrock got the elbow as to how he would react to Lowe coming here. If it is indeed Lowe. If indeed there is such a consortium. |

Excuse us for being cynical, but we've been span so much bullshit these last few years I think we're right to be at least a bit sceptical until full details are revealed. |

Some of you people are unbeliavable. You would rather that the club went to the wall as long as you had the forum to moan about it. i'd rather see the club go under than survive on life support under the ownership of the wills family and diamandis. call it euthanasia if you will. Try to think of it as a) The continuation of the club, b) The possibility of some good quality signings, c) The possibility of a ground refurbishment. if the new consortium takeover the club entirely and involvement of the wills family and diamandis ceases, i will be absolutely thrilled. totally delighted. however, if this just means new board members controlled by the same ownership then essentially nothing will change, so the likelihood of the above three scenarios happening is minimal. Quite frankly as a supporter of 40 years standing I am glad that the "political bullshit" that you lot have been spouting will surely be coming to an end!- Trust my arse! bollocks. every single one of the trust members cares passionately about the future of this football club. none of us have enjoyed this political bullshit, least of all myself. |

Any consortium that involves the current board members will be bad news
I imagine we will be in Chippenham in a couple of years- this board have no intention of staying in Swindon or why upset the council.
How will you lot react then when we end up a franchise
