Downward slide of Saints' shares
7:27am Wednesday 1st April 2009 in News
Saints’ share price has been on an alarming downward slide in recent months.
Yesterday it suffered its third fall in as many working days, dipping into single figures. The 0.5p drop in price, a fall of five percent in value, took its price down to just 9.5p per share, a new low.
It means the market cap for the company, or the total market value of all the shares, is ₤2.67m.
Some 4.5p fell off the share price in the last week alone while 26.5p over the last 12 months means it has lost a staggering 73.61 per cent of its value.
The highest share price seen at Saints since Southampton Leisure Holdings PLC came into being was 64p just under two years ago.

SLH PLC is just Southampton FC, it owns all the assets, pays all the players, receives all the income. SLH would not operate without the football club, so I can't believe the Football League would let us off the hook on a technicality that would mean other clubs would try the same trick.
If admin means the removal of Lowe & Wilde forever from the club, then it is a good thing, but only if we get a new owner(s) who will run the club properly.

What assets? WHat are we not being told by Wupert that his accountants are unhappy about?
As usual, Lowe has refused to comment.

Anyone else noticed it is April 1st! Oh happy days, maybe the next bit of news will be a takeover, in our dreams!
On a serious note, I'm past caring. The club is a joke, "managed" by a bunch of greedy muppets (Lowe, Wilde, Crouch formerly).
They died a long time ago before today and will never return to the Championship, let alone Premiership, as they will have no players and no academy!
RIP (for ever) Saints

If anyone thinks anything good will come from todays news then lets see if at the beginning of next season in Div 1 with a 'no-one' team you feel the same! The worst scenerio could be that that Lowe/Wilde & friends buy the club from the administrators and end up owning the lot.
Southampton FC RIP!

The word is that Barclays have withdrawn the overdraft facility(currently £4.4M).
This could have been avoided had the club been owned by people who actually cared for the club.
I just hope that if the club is now offered for sale as a separate entity from the parent company, someone out there has a quid more than Lowe.

It seems strange that you are more interested in petty snipes at the local newspaper rather than the news that over 100 years of history is being brought to an end by greed and stupidity.
How easy it is to shoot the messenger.
