Got the following when clicking on that Times Online link.... Conspiracy theory alert....

I know it's wrong to laugh but I've just spat my tea out.....

Bingo. Suggest this is sent to 'anyone who may be interested' as a gentle reminder....?

Ex-BBC geezer in the white suit. Name escapes me

Cheers

Assuming the FA passed it on....?

Someone should report this 'crime' to the police then? Won't they be duty bound to investigate? Indeed, we will all be accessories to the 'crime' if we don't report it as it's against the law not to report a crime, isn't it?

Perhaps the image rights gets paid on a royalties basis? i.e. a payment for each product range that uses his 'image' ? Dunno TBH

Someone with previous connections to PFC? :confused:

It's OK, I'll wait for the Daily Mail version to come out....

You may want to get the mods to add a k onto the end of the £35 in the title....although there is probably more amusement factor in leaving it be....

..

The ash is still there. It's just that 'the experts' all of a sudden don't deem it dense enough to worry about. Nothing to do with the Government getting worried about the fallout of the knee jerk blanket ban ahead of a general election of course.

Perhaps Markus could offer to pay some of the other smaller creditors a coincidently similar amount to that which they are owed by PFC so that they withdraw themselves from the creditor list thus boosting the HMRC percentage....? Just a thought....

Does that work when the tax office phone too?

Very reasonable given the usual heady mix of Labour dithering and knee jerking over the last 7 days.....

All sounds very reasonable. Perhaps you should do Pardew's post match interviews for him so we get a rational answer to a reasonable question?

Good stuff - thanks for sharing. Of course, if I was a cynic (which I'm obviously not... :-) ) I might be inclined to say that you wouldn't expect Rickie to tell a fan at the training ground that he was unhappy and looking to leave in the summer if that's indeed what he was thinking. A diplomatic player would say what Rickie said regardless of what was going through his mind. Anyway, as I say, not my view.....just that of an imaginery cynic....

What does being in "voluntary administration" actually entail? As far as I'm aware, there was no announcement to this effect to the Stock Exchange nor was an administrator engaged at that juncture (?) Which suggests that 'voluntary administration' is merely a subtle shift in the way the incumbant board go about their operations rather than something tangible?

Good evening. Derren Brown I assume?

I know that this observation will be met with the "one man doesn't maketh a team" response but he is one of our most influencial players at the moment.

If it was that simple an explanation why did Pardew not just say that rather than lay into the interviewer for asking a 'negative' question? Pardew said he subbed James because we needed to get another forward on.

Pardew: "Asking me about the James substitution is not what you should be asking me tonight"....

Pardew is laying into the officials big time. He sounds really upset

Pardew: "The referee didn't help us one iota"
