Are you sure

Was there with my son, every rendition of that song was like being whacked by Mike Tyson. Some left, but it wasn't an option, nipper was 12 but we had to stay and take it. Regardless of the score, tomorrow is payback.

NC, it's valentines day on Sunday, if you send a card to Talksport, I'm sure they would pass it on to Kevin for you :smt052

Thats Quality - Fair play

In his first interview afte rthe case he quoted the lawyer from HMRC who said that they (pompey) have continued to increase thier expenditure (or words to that effect) and how he was wrong............ then storrie goes and.................... increases his expenditure. He is either very very stupid or he is tsicking two fingers up at HMRC - Brave man

All the papers are running with the story that the Prem will bail them out by advancing the minimum payment they would receive in August, a quite handy figure of 11m. (After already bringing forward a payment of 2million for all clubs, just to help pompey out) So it looks like they have their escape route. They better serioulsy hope that pompey get relegated otherwise the West Ham debarcle is going to look like a walk in the park. It would need the likes of Clapham Saint to confirm, but if the PL stump up the money and pompey pay HMRC, what happens if Vantis come back and say the club is trading insolvently. I think we have about 8 days of this thread left, i'm now pretty sure they will be ok in terms of staying in business, but who knows

Anyone else indulging in completely stupid, illogical and down right worrying behaviour, in the name of "Superstition" for Saturday? I'm quite sure that eating my tea tonight, with the "Blue" plastic encased cuttlery, wouldn't effect the result........................... but just couldn't take the risk :confused::confused:

I think CC got a hat trick against manu as well .......at old trafford ( could be wrong)

The only time I ever remember being shut in as a home fan, was at The Dell, against Chelsea in the 80's The wooden doors of the Milton lasted all of 3 seconds and all hell broke loose. (Saints fans getting out)

Still have to file accounts within 7 days and thats what the court will base their decision on. If Chainrai was going to put money in, he would have done it today. The only "New" news is this 4 million quid, but this is about them being insolvent or not, so regardless of whether they actually have it as cash now or not, the little Didane saga looks after that as a liability.

If Prachya Permpanich is running the line, then almost certainly

Ive just seen the story teller interview...... do you think I could book him for my birthday, with a stand up routine...... The bloke is hilarious

To be fair to them rallyboy, they do, .... It's just the story teller left now, speaking hollow words, to anyone that will listen,which judging by their message boards only leaves helen keller. Next week, they will go.

Completely flawed plan.... they have no legends to put forward as chairman

Whats odds do you reckon I could get on; One or more of pompes directors doing time for their time at teh s!ht pitt. (Not including stories tax trial)

Our very own tango man will find out if it suddenly appears

His Company getting to put their forensic accounting to the test ........... at fratton park.. :D Well he did fook all for us, now he gets a chance to redeem himself http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/football/premier_league/portsmouth/article7021577.ece http://www.vantisplc.com/Vantis/InvestorRelations/Directors.htm

Save the letters Phil. THe PL have confirmed that all league results this season will be exsponged if they go bust and for us, if we win we go through and if we draw and they go bust we go through. If we lose, the next draw will have already taken place and the team they are drawn against will get the bye.

Vantis = Ken Dulieu Ex Saints Chairman

The request for an adjourment, seems to be the most risky move yet and not taking the admin route, bizarre. Surely they are not that frightened with what administrators would find hidden in the books? I don't think I ever thought for one minute that they would get wound up and closed, but the adjournment will be based on the likelyhood of new money being available within the 28 days or so that they allow. There is no TV revenue coming in, no player transfers and 15,000 home fans at hugely discounted rates (See pompey website) isn't going to cut it. Which means the only possible way out would be a takeover....in days not months. That means whoever comes in, has to stump up 7.5 million to the tax man straight away and take on the liabilities of numerous other debts totalling over 50 milllion pounds. In addition to that the club continue to lose money, so they would need to plug the shortfall as well and that's without the complicated issues, with the ground and surrounding land. For good measure you could also throw into the mix the fact that they have no infrastructure or training facilities, are bottom of the premier league, more than likely to get relegated and face further points deductions in the future based on tax, financial irregularities etc etc....... oh and throw in another 4 milllion for dindane. Finding a buyer who will take the debts on and buy the club for a pound is one thing, the above is a whole different ball game and storyteller will need to be on his best form to convince anybody let alone a court, that it is even remotely possible. Having enjoyed this thread, like a good book from the start, with fours hours to go, I really think for the first time, it could be curtains for them. We came close......I'm not sure whether it came as close as 240 minutes though.

So talks stalled an hour before the close of the business day. How long does it take to go into admin.....

Interesting comment 14.49 Take a note of the name......fishing to see how serious they are

What type of sales is it Bridgey

Well something isnt going to plan. How long does it take to agree something both sides are happy with. I'm going for a long shot ......admin by 9.00am tomorrow morning

Taking out the emotion of who and what is invloved though, the relaity is if there is 1.8 million on the table now and then they default on teh next payment HRMC can wind them up, having banked 1.8 mill. If they wind them up now and get nothing......... they really do get nothing
