Ah....Mr Cala....we've missed you.... Good to see he's found a club that wears blue and has a crap ground at long last...

Simon Peach ‏@SimonPeach I hope Adkins, Puncheon & Yoshida are ready for this. Their view shortly

Anything to to with Chainrai for me..... ....which more or less covers 100% of all bids...(allegedly)

Simon Peach ‏@SimonPeach Loads of Japanese journalists have turned up for Maya Yoshida. Nine cameras expected. #SaintsFC have gone big time.

Question.... Apart from the obvious (i.e. one's got '2004' in the name and is in administration), what's the difference between these two companies? Miland Development Ltd - http://wck2.companieshouse.gov.uk/b7578c00bf2135e70f15d8150dae91bf/compdetails Miland Development 2004 Ltd - http://wck2.companieshouse.gov.uk/49fdb168456564e5ebaeab7c278c7845/compdetails I note that the 'NOTICE OF RESULT OF MEETING OF CREDITORS' for Miland Development 2004 Ltd was made available for download on 7th Sept. I wonder if there's anything of interest in there....?

http://www.portsmouthfc.co.uk/LatestNews/news/S****horpe-Tickets-On-General-Sale-3720.aspx That's it....rub it in why don't you....reminding the bestest fans what the proceeds of cheating achieved....

It's something about his hovercraft being full of eels but the rest is a bit garbled

Is the facepalm machine broken or something? :-)

@2ndYellow: There are Southampton fans who want Nigel Adkins sacked. After consecutive promotions. Don't they realise they support a provincial club?

But I guess that's the crux behind my question....is it really a 'problem' for Birch if he ends up choosing a bid that later fails? He doesn't have any (legal) accountability for his decision once it's happened, does he?

http://m.portsmouth.co.uk/sport/pompey/pompey-past/fifth-bidder-arrives-with-offer-to-buy-pompey-1-4280286

How much discretion does Birch have? Does the court appoint him to simply rubber stamp the best bid (based on finances on paper) or is he 'allowed' to throw ethics and morals into the equation?

A good read... http://www.twohundredpercent.net/?p=20459

No, it means he's drifted off into a deep sleep like the rest of us...

To be fair, most offerings at Berni Inn tasted carp...

Storrie and Redknapp? Nah...there's wishful thinking and wishful thinking....

@SOSPompey: Two BBC journo's contradicting each other regarding the PST bid - who's playing silly buggers? @NabilHassan79 @mattslaterbbc @pompeytrust: Thanks to all those who have directed me to @mattslaterbbc The PST bid remains unchanged and we regard it as best for creditors and club.

Nothing ever seems quite right with Pompey bidders, does it?!

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19657230 Not sure how a dissolved or non-existent company can bid for a football club but I'm sure it's perfectly normal in Pompeyland...

@dfearnley: @Walkthe9T2 @mattslaterbbc well companies house shows portco ltd dissolved sept 2010. Could be totally different of course.

@mattslaterbbc: they claim to have shown PKF proof of funds to value of £6.47m @harrypfc98

Nice bush

@mattslaterbbc: ...admins still saying it's between PST & Portpin, PST want more time, FL watching closely, Miland could become a factor again @croydonpompey: @mattslaterbbc why Milland become a factor @mattslaterbbc: a lot of new interest in it @croydonpompey I fear it could become a 'ransom strip' again
