The key in this case is to count the number of 'verys' in a sentence ! Ie. if Appy says " they are very, very, very, very close to leaving" you will still be a few 'verys' short of reality ! Look out for a statement dominated by about 15 very's and you may be getting close ! HTH

http://www.dailytrust.com.ng/index.php/sports/171782-kanu-to-drag-portsmouth-to-court? The 'King' is claiming 'millions' for 6 years of unpaid salary !!! This could be a lot of fun

I missed the outcome of his court case as I was overseas for a month ! How did he get on ? I presume that he was cleared ?

So Trousers is destined to become the Bill Gates of the Saintsweb Forum ?

Thank you MLG, I had completely forgotten that pedantry was alive and well in the land of SWF

Call me a wimp if you like, but I do not want them to go under at all !! I've enjoyed the squirming, squelching, sweating, spinning, swearing, suffering, sh#tstirring etc..., so much (the classic, 'death by a thousand cuts'!) that I want it to go on forever PUP (but not as we know it!). Do we really want to chant "One team in 'Ampshire" if it is an actual fact ??? Be careful what you wish for !!

I thought that Varney and Norris were nailed on to leave by the middle of the week ?? Surely they are not now hanging about as the FL have said that football creditors should be paid in full by any new owner ???

To be fair, either scenario is possible, but Chinny must be seriously reconsidering his position in the light of the complete FL ruling !

2. Agree that only a limited proportion of the secured debt from the previous club can be carried forward into the new company as secured debt. This point should be well noted as it affects only Chanrai ! He must make a big decision now, should he continue a) in the hope that the PP's are not directed solely to the football creditors and b) that TBH and the rest of the big earners are gone within a fortnight ?? The Trust are coming up on the rails in this race and personally I think that this will be the best outcome all round - a) the Skates will have their long desired 'community club' and b) we nutjobs will revel in their chaos and confusion for years to come !! Deep joy, deep joy

On the contrary Trousers, the part which states that only a proportion of 'secured' debt will be allowed, goes against all that he stands to gain ! My feeling is that he will pull out, perhaps selling/renting the ground to the trust and head off back to Hong Kong licking his wounds !!

Here is the view of 'Blueshirt' from the News comments at 16.47 : what possible justification can the FL have for this appalling decision? It is spiteful and vindictive, and serves no purpose other than to kick us when we are down.........we are being punished for the same offence twice, as I see it, seeing as how we had points deducted last season. The only people to be affected by this are the players and fans of the football club, who were not responsible for or at fault for the administration or mismanagement of the club. The five or six thousand loyal fans of the club who have put their money up front in the purchase of season tickets have effectively had the value of those season tickets reduced, and the club has, at a stroke been rendered even less attractive to any potential buyer. Given the fact that we are also subject to a transfer embargo and are being totally hamstrung in our efforts to get out of the mess we are in, and instead of offering help and support, the league are obstructing and hindering any possible progress we try to make....... it is shameful and does the FL no credit , it merely highlights their own inept running of the league they are supposed to be in charge of, and however you look at this, you can find no justification or valid reason for it.......we are an easy target and are being victimised. This will not deter any other club or chairman, it will not stop mismanagement at football clubs and will not achieve anything at all within the football league, all it does is give the other 23 clubs in league one an unfair advantage over the coming season. Nice one Football League, and thanks for nothing.. again!

My brother is a Leicester City ST holder who is friendly with a major sponsor and he has heard nothing about this (even after prompting from me!). I accept that this means SFA but thought that I'd tell you anyway !

'Au contraire, mon fils', the players DO get it, that's why they are staying put, waiting for the end game whereby they have a better chance of getting more dosh !! Stick or twist when you have 19 in your hand ? I'd say stick !!

Come on you Whiteys Saints have never been good for our health but we are all in this together ! Good luck mate !

Still no income but desperate to start spending again by bringing in a recruitment manager and a coach ! If that's not trading whilst insolvent then my granny is a Martian !!

He has more pace than the others as far as I could see !!

Difference is Sue, that you are nice girls, they are a bunch of pikeys who are very sweaty and it is this which 'takes it's toll' !!

2 of my grandchildren (girl 8 and boy 5) live in Belgium ! They have a nicely balanced diet and hardly ever eat junk food (inc crisps!). In my view they are slightly smaller than average but perfectly formed, so guess what ? At their recent (separate) school medical checks, both were classed as 'underweight, needing attention' ! Maybe we should encourage them to stuff their faces full of hamburgers just to make the stats look good, eh ?? Rant over.. All the best Whitey, hope it all goes well !!

The words 'hook, line and sinker' seem to appear quite regularly in that blog !!

That Europatin guy seems very sharp and intelligent, don't you think ??

You next to Lucy Pinder then ??

I hope they never made him queue up for 2 hours like some people had to ??

Why don't you try an all white one like our new away kit ! I've seen lots of white ones in the shops (not sure about the Liebherr brand though!).

With a bit of luck you'll soon be up to 3,980 then ??
