Cheers Tony - Very interesting and much appreciated.

It really wasn't ....was used about 9 months before you got to it........ Check a certain Rallyboy and Milton Aggro's posts.

Your advice looks a million times better than any fa I've worked with......And its not boring. It is a stock option scheme. The options are available at the price they were issued at and then you have to pay 52% (Never heard anything so ******* stupid in all my life) tax on the net return.

It was 4 million and it wasn't a chairman, it was Aviva.

Tony - Can you help with 52% Tax on a non approved share option scheme

I take great comfort from your track record of previous predictions

That could be in line with the "Solvency Statement"...... Another google search... A rating suspension does not imply that the entity is not servicing its debt obligations or that its financial position has deteriorated, but rather that it has failed to provide important information regarding, for example, its finances, liquidity or operations. At the same time as suspending the ratings, CI shall review those ratings to ensure that they continue to provide a current opinion about the creditworthiness of the entity or obligation on a forward looking basis. Ratings may also be suspended in cases where they have been assigned to an entity that is in the process of being created through the merger of other entities (usually rated entities and where there is sufficient information about the ownership, capital structure and organisation of the new entity to support a rating) but where the merger process is taking longer than expected. As a guideline the gap between the assignment of the rating and the creation of the new entity should be no more than 3 months. If the entity has not been created within this period the ratings should be suspended http://www.ciratings.com/page/credit-rating-policy-procedures/suspending-withdrawing-and-discontinuing-ratings

Mid table................ But going out on a limb, I think we will make a Wembley appearance this coming season.

Does anyone know what a "Solvency Statement" is and whether it would be typically seen as a bad or good thing? No no, don't worry pompey haven't registered one - We have and this google summary is the best I can come up with - Can anyone help? This Solvency Statement- Share Capital Reduction has been created in light of the new Companies Act 2006 provisions which came into force on 1st October 2008. Private companies, as an alternative to passing a special resolution and obtaining court approval, have the option of reducing the amount of their share capital by special resolution supported by a Solvency Statement- Share Capital Reduction made by the directors. In order to reduce the amount of share capital through the solvency statement route, private companies must submit to Companies House the following: - the special resolution; - the solvency statement; - a statement of capital showing the alteration in the company's share capital in Form SH19 (Section 644 & 649); - a further statement of the directors under Section 644(5) of the Companies Act 2006 confirming that the special resolution authorising the reduction of share capital was passed within 15 days of the date on which the solvency statement was made

Good point

Isn't he just. Two very public statements Bridge and now Hooper and neither deal materializes. The hooper one is almost perfect and I find it hard to believe that the player didn't mention anything about Norwich..............So come out and tell the world what a great signing he will be and then look like the injured party when he signs for someone else.

Ok thanks - Has it been updated or amended in anyway? I see that we lodged a "Solvency Statement" In July of this year Does anyone know what this means as in good or bad? ....A quick google ..... Is ; This Solvency Statement- Share Capital Reduction has been created in light of the new Companies Act 2006 provisions which came into force on 1st October 2008.

Does anyone know if the charge that was fixed on our assets last year for the loan from the BVI company has been removed? Or even amended or updated? Would be interesting to see if we paid it off once the Sky money was paid to us in June.

******* shirter ;);)

You could well be right mate..... This just seemed to be played out in the press, so no idea if it was true or not.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/23440616 Seems we were chasing him for ages, now he ends up in the Championship. Am I wrong in thinking we had a confirmed bid of over 5 million turned down? Cant see that qpr would have paid that sort of money, but anyway, what seems to have been a long term target is now off the radar.

WTF are you on about seriously?

I think it is pretty much guaranteed that Cortese will only bring it the best. I actually think it is one area where we can really compete with the big boys. Our track record in bringing youngsters through is widely acknowledged in football, so you get to see the fruits of your labour. Imagine running the Chelsea, Spurs, Man City, or arsenal academies .

Just checked - I'll take them

What date is that UM

Not sure why I love this so much..... But really makes me chuckle

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/23147072 Interesting article on the BBC. Having watched the arsenal ladies team on TV a few times (Who seemed to win everything, year in year out) I would cringe at the standard, so I am not convinced by womans football at all (Sorry Sue Whistle) but Sue Lopez was my school teacher and she really was an outstanding footballer and lovely lady as well. Nice to see her getting some recognition.
