Wow, that's a lot of skates creaming themselves about the team running along the promenade - doing it 'old skool' apparently. I wonder, if they actually had decent training facilities with a decent training surface whether they would have to run along the beach? Perhaps the local goodwill has run out and no-one else will lend them a bit of grass to train on?

No sign of the new championship standard floodlights in that picture. Not even any sign of any work being done considering the whole works is being replaced right up to the point the electricity enters the stadium. Are they waiting until the get into the championship before they install the championship standard floodlights?

Please let it be the JCB! Surely championship standard floodlights need a JCB?

Schoolboy error

No jolly holiday abroad this year then? Perhaps this pre-season they really will be riding bikes and eating squirrels?

Get a flowery shirt and can an eye out for 'five-o' whilst you are out there! Other than that, what advice do you need - it's Hawai'i for heaven's sake, you'll have a great time!

How are those 'championship' standard floodlights coming along - oh and any idea who's paying for them yet?
-
If they delay the start long enough perhaps they will be able to showcase their championship standard floodlights as well
-
Who cares! Bring on the championship standard floodlights!!
-
Who cares - when championship standard floodlights are on the way!

I went to dictionary.com to look up the word optimistic - it linked to that very article Can we now call FP the 'mock tudor timber tabernacle'?

Have you tried the Portsmouth Supporters club - they should be able to point you in the right direction

It's way too harsh on Wigan to compare them to the skates these days.

Yeh, but how long is his name?

They stole money from at least one charity. Your question doesn't need to be asked...

What is a fair deal for the UK within the EU?
Weston Super Saint replied to TopGun's topic in The Lounge
Pretty sure this is also about the UK not having to abide by the ridiculous rulings of the oooropean court of oooman rights. -
To be fair, he didn't mention promotion. There are two ways out of the league....

Calling All Employment Law or HR "Experts"
Weston Super Saint replied to Saint In Exile's topic in The Lounge
In employment law, that frankly, is NOT the case. Employment Law is not the same as criminal law and for cases of theft, the employer does not have to provide unequivocal proof or even proof beyond reasonable doubt. It does however have to have reasonable suspicion and reasonable evidence. -
They've already had all the money they are going to get - it's what paid for the sliver of tarmac in the shadow of the North stand. There will be no more money - unless of course the generous football league will give them a long term loan!!

It comes a close second I'm afraid Mr T as nothing on the internet will ever beat our 'Arry and his legendary twitter Q&A session

Apart from the annual season ticket sale....

So, just to recap : They made a profit of £118,000 for the year until 30th June 2014. But, that wasn't actually a profit at all, because once they added in the interest that they paid on loans, they made a loss of £171,000 which means the interest was £289,000. I'm no rocket scientist, but that to me looks like the amount of interest you would pay on a loan of around £4m or the amount the 'presidents' 'invested' so generously.... I guess this statement is deliberately vague but it looks to me that they are also including the Robinscum money in the accounts for that year - presumably to make them look better - even though that money came in November didn't it and therefore outside of the accounting period? Again, not an expert on these things but isn't this VERY similar to the way Tescos were reporting their accounts by 'selecting' things that they did and didn't want to be included to make them look better?

Lol. They've said it over and over - so many times in fact that it MUST be true - they would not swap that FA cup win for the world! Besides, they COULD afford the team as the international finance institutions didn't destroy them until the day after the cup final! Bitter brummies! Just think, TEN wins on the trot and they will have climbed to the dizzy heights of League 1. Lose just one of the next seven games and another season in League 2 beckons. Anyone remember whether the 'business plan' required promotion at the end of the first or second season in League 2 - or is it that robust that they don't need to worry about trivial things like promotion these days...

Frankly, it's nothing to do with the landlord! If they have broken the law or are causing a public nuisance then the police are the only people who can deal with it! Do you think the owners of your mortgage are responsible for your behaviour? They're not, they're bothered about whether or not you pay your mortgage in the same way the landlord is only bothered about whether the rent is paid - and I guess also about whether the house is maintained in 'good order'. Everything else is not their concern!
