We amassed unfeasibly big debts and never did pay off our creditors." "We were so close to going out of business, and even when we were finally saved, there was no indication we had been bought by a consortium with bottomless pockets." "We now have some reasonable footballers, but few – if any – high-quality ones; our crowds have unsurprisingly slumped amid the recessions, both financial and footballing." PMSL, you just have ****e support... get real lads and lasses! "And even when we were good enough to attract the masses, our little old ground limited the numbers to under 20,000 – and by definition, the income potential." "Unfortunately (some would argue, fortunately), ladies and gentlemen, we are no longer a big club." FFS you dirty skate bastards, you never were a big club and you never will be "But we are a brave little outfit defined by our unity and solidarity, our ability to punch above our weight and occasionally attract football magicians to steer us towards the great heights we have periodically enjoyed." Wrong again skate, you are not united or solid, as demonstrated by your miniscule attendences... you are little, but your ability to punch above your weight was only ever plausible through bonkers spending and stealing from the tax payer, childrens cancer charities and local businesses... the only magicians you ever got were being paid well above the market rate, after you outbid clubs in a far stronger financial position than you - Wolves, QPR, Ipswich et al what a dirty scummy little club that is

Well done Jay, well done Radhi and well done Saints Foundation

I would be interested to know how many the skates took to Ipswich too, as they put an extra 5k on the nottarf gate against barnsley (11k), so i guess they would have taken an additional thousand or so. Sounds about right, before they cleared out clotteril though... seeing as they guaranteed an aditional 5k on the home gate they will take more to Derby, so anything less than 2k would be a disgrace for the bestests, finests supporters in the lands ™ Perhaps they will sell out to see the russian mafia unveil Dowie as their saviour? What a fabulous turn out from the Saints last night, a record breaking crowd they told us, although in my eyes a sell out is a sell out... being picky over one or two hundred isnt necessary for us, it is though for the skates when they take 150 to wigan et al, every body counts... So on saturday afternoon we had the 11k skate turnout where they were singing '' theres only one team in Hampshire '' - silly deluded skates! Last night we demonstrated who really is the '' only one team in Hampshire '' with our magnificent attendence, they really should knock that chip off their shoulders and just accept they are a small time, no mark, tin pot club whio is only known to the world for criminal activity, unsporting behaviour and being the first and only top tier club to be declared insolvent...

It is beginning to go viral amoungst the football supporting community... FIFA and UEFA kicked off about it all when they went bust, with the FA and PL trying to hush it all up... Fortunately at SWF we have a platform here to discuss the issues and raise awareness over what is becoming the single greatest scam in the history of football, a tale that will fans of the future will look back on and say "that was when it all changed"... Hats off to this magnificent thread and to all those that are doing their bit for society and the footballing communities by exposing the DFCSBs for what they are. This mornings quotes from the deluded blew phew: However, privately, Pompey have already ruled out the 55-year-old as a candidate. Jones is perceived as an expensive option who would favour bringing in his own coaching team on a large scale. Nice ommission that they cant afford a proper management team, funny that they are openly disclosing 'private' decisions through a local rag, very professional and a nice touch of class there. Skate 'legend' Whittingham clearly smells the concrete boots round the corner: http://www.portsmouth.co.uk/sport/pompey/pompey-past/great-matches/legend_adamant_blues_role_doesn_t_interest_him_1_3160856 I’ve got a nice family life and would quite like to keep it that way, thank you very much. The training ground is fantastic, the office stuff is all coming together The new guy might bring his own staff Eh?.. Is this the school playing fields he is reffering too? I doubt anyone will be bringing in his own staff, Dave Jones certainly aint! Weve had McCarthy, Holloway, Warnock and the rest publically stating how the skates outbid them for players: http://www.twtd.co.uk/news.php?storyid=19382 Chuck wanted to stay but he got such a fantastic offer from Portsmouth. I remember he came to my office and told me he didn’t really want to leave Ipswich “He got offered a three-year contract that we didn’t match, or wouldn’t match or couldn’t match, and he said he couldn’t really turn it down. I fully agreed with him. “But this is a job and he got an unbelievable offer from Portsmouth that he felt – and I think we would all agree – that he had to take. ****ing disgraceful (and the town fans are picking up on it too)

Update on the toilet developments at Nottarf? The Russian mafia must be absolutely livid with the appalling, pathetic attendances, I can imagine the face on Vlad as he has to write out another cheque out as the few dont bother to support there team... what did admin andy say they needed to break even, 16k? The Russian mafia are burning through cash faster than Ben Haim can take it off them and they must be wondering why bother? 11k, did they really believe all the spin about the bestest fans in da wurlzzz ™? Massive club...

It certainly is Fox, it certainly is. A landmark day on this magnificent thread, the revelations always come on a friday! Its sad to hear of clotters departure, as he has been doing a tremendous job for SFC and all is fantastic supporters. He clearly isnt as dumb as we suspect, spinning his way into this role, despite the total failure at the skates on the biggest budget in the division and his post match comedy displays... As he said on skysports earlier, as soon as Forest fell for it, he was 'flattered' and he was itching to get away.. he was even revving his engine whilst the reporter was talking to him! Clearly a mutual feeling for the Russian mafia too, after thrashing out a compo deal throughout the night... This is funny as about a week ago I posted a Skate news article on here featuring Dubov, who claimed he had ''unshakable belief'' in the clotto... PMSL ****ing fantastic and the mafia will be delighted to recoup there bonanza £100k investment in some toilets and having the clock repaired! What the money launderers do next will be interesting and very telling, do they appease the fans and go for Ancellotti or whatever, or promote from within. Clotteril was the second biggest spender in the division this summer, those players he brought in just a few weeks ago might be feeling a little mugged right now! I raise a glass to Fitzhughs prophecy the previous day, i propose a toast to... well, toast!

Why has nobody spoken the truth on this matter? The fact is that Labours open door immigration policy, replicated by the insect immigrant movement, has seen our country flooded with Asian and African Ladybirds, is the reason for it. If you see any 'black or brown' ladybirds from Africa/Asia I believe you are duty bound to incinerate them - as like c*ck roaches, if you crush 'em they will spread eggs http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/3808049/Cannibal-ladybird-invasion-hits-UK.html http://www.ladybird-survey.org/harlequin.aspx

Dune has a point here, and its funny that a Southampton forum is in denial over Eastern Block - As Southampton is the UK capital of poles, with about 30-40k of them in the city! Building, electrictians, plumbing, car washing, web design, telesales, tree surgery, bars/pubs/restaurants, the list could go on and on (and thats before considering the black market: drugs, theft, counterfiet goods, data fraud, cash machine fraud... they have without doubt mopped up a % of jobs that would have been perfect for young English citizens... They are nice, friendly and hardworking in the main in my opinion... I dont think they have all packed up and gone home just yet, Poland still aint that great just yet! Walk into a University buiding and you will find a lot of poles, they will tell you they came here to study as the EU means they pay the same subsidised (for now!) price as UK natives, and an English degree is worth ten times that of a Polish one, even in Poland!

I find on the high street a tactic of an loud aggressive one off cough if they start to make any movements towards you, or if they are looking at you and might attempt to initiate.... spoil sport... and to think i paid your flag tax

Thanks for the update Fitz... PFC keeps bleating that 'its over', 'nothings going to happen' and 'get over it' but he couldnt be further from the truth... The russian eagles are circling and your formidable leader is trying to escape, so much so he couldnt care less if the BBC confirm he is sitting interviews with a league rival... i guess he knows he got in way too deep blagging money out of the russian mafia, and those concrete boots are never far away. you simply do not cheat the taxman, everyone knows that, its the unwritten rule and has been in place since the days of Capone... the skates will get there comeuppance, HMRC are deeply hurt by the fruad and deciet that led to the UK being denied revenues up to £37m, a staggering amount even in todays money. I agree with Fitzhugh, this will be the biggest decline of a football club in sporting history, a club with hundreds and hundrewds and hundreds of millions flowing through it for years, yet nobody questioned why they dont have toilets in the stadium. Right now, the CVA payments are a huge threat to the future and a fall out on this point could see them at moneyfields before the 2012 season begins... because if they dare miss the first CVA payment, HMRC will be down at Nottarf with a liquidation order before they can say 'TBH'. mafias, crime syndicates, money launderettes, loan sharks, fake shieks... they aint gonna be interested in paying a legacy debt such as a CVA... the Russian mafia cant even be bothered to cover the childrens cancer charity debt... I also agree with Fitzhugh that clooterills departure could be the cataylst that starts the rapid, painful decline to the non-leagues... although we all laugh and mock at his big cry baby personality he is probably the lynchpin keeping the suspiciously highestly assembled team in the division together... even if the clubs he is pimping himself to dont offer him a job and he stays at the skates, his public display of wanting out could crush whatever remote team spirit the most expensive XI in the league had... Its going to happen and it will be for the greater good of the world. So this magnificent thread is very much alive, the troops are rallying on here and we can smell the desperation in the air, maybe its time for the blue few to wake up and smell the russian standard vodka - these owners wont even bother to joke about the mess they left you in, you are nothing to these types of people... what is bemusing to read is the CSI facebook pages, the deluded few really cant see what is going on, they are far too busy sucking off roman and vlad for getting some hot water in and signing huskelepp... fools so pull yourself together contributors, stop letting the Ho spin you around in circles and get ready for the next chapter in the wonderful story. The taxman is in court and the russians are gonna turn nasty... the skates have lost every battle so far and they are going to lose the war... Pompey is going down with no money in the bank

Just ordered half a dozen tickets to Reading away and the lady making the booking threw in not only our celebrated 'Ticket Tax', but then raised the bar by suggesting I made a donation to the Saints Foundation! There I was, knees trembling, sweat on my brow... all I could think of was NC holding a puppy with a gun to its head... 'how can I say no?' I thought, 'it would be wrong not to support our magnificent foundation and our fantastic, hard working group of staff who are together as one'... I matched the booking fee with a £3 donation, and opted in for gift aid. I noted the crafty tatic with the lady and we had a chuckle about it. In the main I see this as a positive move by the club and another step towards that £1m target for the foundation and I wish them all the best, lots of companies such as Dominos and Amazon have similar systems in place so this is perhaps another example of Saints following best practise. If they asked me to donate to a 3rd party charity I would have most likely declined (recession n all!), however the relevance, association and localism of the foundation made it too diificult to swerve! Also noted was the excellent transaction, friendly manner and intelligent management of my confusing order - well done Saints!

Too much guess work from a serial bull****ter! This thread isnt about our magnificent club, but thankyou for pointing out that the Russian mafia have spent more than Saints on transfers this year! Who do you think is getting better value for money from player investment so far? Clotters sure is a shrewd businessman, PMSL! You didnt turn a profit on your players, as you ever payed for them in the first place. The only thing that did get paid was Harrys 10% commission and Storries 5%, oh and Pini Zahivis £3m! The debt rolling into hundreds of millions indicates you were not turning a profit in any aspect of your money laundering operation. I wonder if Vlad and Doobie are on 10% commission deals to? They seem to think they can make money somehow, so perhaps if they spunk a load of dirty mafia money on players, and take a clean percentage out as part of each deal, that is what they define as profit.

PMSL... they have to fund the new toilets too, and hot water in the ladies FFS... I feel a rendition of "Pompeys going down with no money in the bank" is in order ALL TOGETHER NOW!

Corp that was ****ing priceless! You tool! PMSL

Probably a score to each family member of each player concerned, max. If the Russian mafia are rich enough to buy Saab, spyker and own 'banks' then surely they could have made a private donation that would not have been an insult to the families of lost ones. That said, the owners must be commended PR stunt or not, emotionally self indulgent or not. Let us not forget, daddy Gadymack sold tanks, helicopters and circa 200,000 landmines. he supplied a civil war FFS.

Fear not rallyboy: http://www.portsmouth.co.uk/sport/pompey/pompey-past/great-matches/cotterill_s_record_ranks_highly_in_table_of_recent_fratton_bosses_1_3120921 the Russian mafia have an 'unshakable belief' in the clotter! The skates best stop slagging off their manager as the MOB have spoken! That is also a rather hilarious article I must add, slating all previous managers for the club, as some kind of desperate justification of the clotts existence. ... So, a bumper 4k attendance! Well that has certainly exceeded my expectations, I was thinking a 1/3 of that tops, so well done Corp, Mack et al. That said, I doubt they will have scraped enough £2 coins together to make any worthwhile donation to Russia. If they have to cover the russian sides travel, and/or accommodation, they have most likely made a considerable loss.

Seeing that picture of stevie cap in hand reminds me of when they played chelsea, and afterwards he was bleating about how him and Villas Boas are gonna get some chelsea players on loan to nottarf... then we signed Jack Cork! http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/saints/news/9289012.Fair_play_Saints_top_the_table/?ref=rss they still havent got any control over the dreadful discipline situation, proudly racking up a staggering 27 cards in just 10 games, at more than 3x the rate of Saints, that really takes some effort. This highlights the extreme parallels we now exist in. On one side we have an honest, hardworking group of players who work for each other, on the other side we have the worst disciplinary record in the league from an aging bunch of mercenary individuals... but you then read some of the posts on the russian mafias facebook page from the bestests fans in da hole worldzz ™ and you realise they are not concerned at all with pride, decency or dignity, instead they come across as very cheap, desperate and needy.

Are you drunk?

Its staggering, almost as if these skates have goldfish memories! Despite having a CVA agreement, with a £10k wage cap, they had the highest paid XI in the division last season and outbid premier league clubs for players, as highlighted by the likes of Mick McCarthy and Neil Warnock... The skate news really are the slag to PFC, rolling out constant lies, PR and soviet propaganda to the phew, over and over again. http://www.portsmouthfc.co.uk/LatestNews/news/Yaroslavl-Air-Crash-Text-To-Donate-2641.aspx Love the bit "Money will be collected by Pompey Sports & Education Foundation who will then pass it on to the Russian charity" Take clean (giro) money from the skates, quick clean through the laundry then bung a load of Rubles over to Russia? Sorry skatez, but your reputation in this field is second to none, and bringing the Russian mafia on board can only cement this, with big, heavy, concrete boot style cement... Maybe a bit of focus to the charities you 'collected' money for, some even were presented jumbo cheques on the pitch, only for the club to embezzle to f**king lot of it! It is wrong to joke about an unfortunate incident such as this, however I cant help but wonder if the skates will rob the cash again, and I also wonder if they will be able to get anywhere near break even point due to about 800 or so turning up for it! Oh, BTW, do they still owe us £35k and do they have academy status?

Golden OP a mate who has comes from a family of fat rears has a set of baby wipes in every bathroom in the house, in case its too hot, sore or uncomfortable... i am told they CDAJ and i am considering investing in some baby wipes too to assist in my ''fog of stinkiness and clamminess''

Brilliant! Hope NC realises he needs to pack up his belongings as his landlord is selling the gaff! Boy will he feel silly if he dosent know yet, and finds out he facilitated the sale on behalf of the landlord on his very own website! Nice pad Franny!

A selection of highly amusing quotes on the Russian Mafias facebook page on how the skates can improve the arena... sorry, it was titled how they can 'further' improve - PMSL! It seems the majority just want a toilet and a clock that tells the time, which is a reasonable outlook to have for a skate, although admittedly very ambitious... some of the Peter Storrie wananbees want to have a 40k habourdrome still despite the fact they are getting 12k home gates. Im up for the hilarious reappointment of Uncle Avram though! Massive club, massive... not a tinpot in sight

every time I hear another bitter and pathetic soundbite from Le Tiss it takes a tiny little bit of shine off my hero. Unfortunately this string of events pops into my mind when I think of Matt now which is awful really as previously he could do no wrong in my eyes. Its such a shame, as they both care about the club, but they are both seriously damaging their own reputations for little point really. Cortese dosent have the same worship from me, but my admiration for him also wanes a little with every snipe.

Not a bad gesture from the Russian Mafia, and understandable considering that their major passion is Hockey... However I think they are looking at making a loss on the event, even with a 5K turnout they are only looking at raising £10 grand, or two days of Tal Ben Haims wages. If they muster up 2k then I doubt £4k of revenue will be anyway near enough to cover the cost of the floodlights, stewards, staffing and so on. I recall our Claus' testimonial running at a loss (he had to chip in £100k IIRC) and we had a gate of around 18k, and the tickets were about 10x that of the skates charity gig. Once again, the figures dont look good for poopey. In consideration of the existing fortunes owed to local charities, it may be likely that fans are cautious about attending, and as sad as it is, we are in a recession and people are having to make financial choices carefully... this may just be too far from home for skates to be concerned with. After pompey won the cup they had some kind of match at Nottarf didnt they? Something to do with Kanu and a charity I think, and they scraped together about 1200 fans together... pretty reasonable seeing as 200k people had just welcomed arrys victory bus down at southsea. Time for an attendence sweepstake? Im going for 1,850 - with 150 Russians = £3700, which is considerably less than it would cost to fly over the Russian sides first team! If this turns out to be some kind of disaster, the Russian Mafia will not be happy. They think they have bought the best fans in the land, and it will really stick in their throats that the skates didnt come out to support their cause... and the honeymoon is over!
