Talking of the training ground I understand next week (thursday or friday?) is d day. This might be true and from a good source or it might be my agenda talking, who knows?!!

Do you not think the FACT that it has now been proven that this sort of thing has been going on suggests those that said this sort of thing was going on might be right and actually know what they are on about rather than bitter people with agendas making up rumours on the Internet?

Hang on a minute, only a few weeks back people when people were saying this sort of stuff, amoungst others, was going on, those that said this was the case were demanded to provide PROOF, it was asked why none of this was making the media. In fact only a few days back certain posters were lining up to take pot shots at me for 'having and agenda' and 'not liking cortese'. Well now this evidence is out there, its in the media, we've have a f*cking court order made against us! so does this mean that we are still dismissing everything else as utter bullsh*t, or like people do with positve news, acclaim it as FACT and actually wonder what else is going on? I do admire the blind defence of Cortese though, you've got to hand it to people who will desperately cling to anything and try to spin everything as positive yet in the next breath have a go at Pompey for not paying bills and shafting local businesses. You really couldn't make it up.

That's what happens where you're not struggling to pay your rent on a Slough bedsit Bradley, it's the trappings of success!! Enjoy your afternoon stalking people you've come across on mongboards Bradders!!

Come on Bradley, stop stalking me from your Slough bedsit and defend your hero!! Tell us again what a great businessman he is!

Not really. It's amusing that all those demanding evidence and ridiculing, abusing and accusing people of having agendas for sharing their accounts about the clubs, shall we call them, questionable, business ethics now have their evidence and its pretty daming,no?

You cant get any more matter of fact that a court judgement against us, Barry.

Round of applause for the first defence of the club against a court action against the club and how Cortese ruthless streak and not being pushed around is in fact a postive thing in this instance. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=heAw4z71lvo

This one. THis was in injury time in a cup game c1992. Bolton had scored in the last minute to go 2-1 up, he then scored the winner in extra time.

Well the judge could not understand why we did that and i suggest he knows much more about it than we ever will.

Not an admission they were in the wrong then?

Saints had the chance to give their side of the story in court, they didn't bother turning up.

One thing is for sure, it looks like those demanding evidence about the "rumours" of our business practices now finally have some. Unless of course it's journalists lying and making up stories.

"An adjudication in August ruled that the club should hand over the money “immediately” along with interest built up in the month at £12.81 per day. But despite further demands, no money was handed to the commercial outfitter, which is based in Lee-on-the-Solent, and no explanation was offered, the court heard." "The club did not send a representative or a legal team to the case, emailing court officials a day before to signal their intention not to attend. In their absence, the club was ordered to pay £55,000 plus VAT as well as interest totalling £1,370.63 and legal costs of £3,309. Mr Justice Robert Akenhead said he could “not understand” why the club had left it until the day before the hearing to tell the court they were not appearing for a defence against the claim. “There does not appear to be a good reason why they did not do it three weeks ago to avoid paying these (legal) costs,” he said." A contractual despute we didn't dispute or bother sending any legal representation to or even bother to argue? How odd.

I wait to hear from all those that were outraged at the suggestion that work at the training ground had been stopped due to non payment.........

Exactly. ANyone who dared to suggest this a few weeks ago was abused.

MONG FRIDAY IS LIVE AND UNEDITED! My Agenda - Take the p*ss, get a few nibbles, bit of banter and occasionally talk about soccerball.

What speed do they go Jamie? Is it like the hunt for Red October?

Is there plenty of storage storage space in the kitchens?

Oh no. Plenty of people believed we'd comfortably finish midtable in this average league and the we'd press on and finish 8th, then 5th, then 4th then be a champions league side with a team full of academy graduates managed by nice guy nige. When anyone. Who dared to say this was highly unlikely they were sneered at as having a 'dell sized mentality' and why wouldn't it happen what hasn't Cortese delivered so far? And of course who could forget that it was an absolute certainty because they said man would never walk on the moon. Now the view seems to be that it doesn't really matter because if someone had offered this two years ago we'd definitely have taken it and to stop being greedy and spolit. It really is quite odd.

What a silly comment. Jamie has a point, everything he does no matter how simple is lauded as brilliant and when he gives the ball away cheaply it's 'unlucky' whereas the place would be in meltdown if Guly had done the same. He's clearly a very talented player but the reality is in his time here he's only played really well for about 45 'minutes against Aston Vile.

Do we need a 'amnesty agenda/mong Friday' build up thread?

If you can't sleep come back on here. I probably won't go offline tonight in case I miss anything. Mong Friday is only 13 minutes away.

i'll probably see what response my first one gets and then reveal my other ones if i dont get enough attention.

Apologies, i presumed if you want to go for a nice meal you go to a nice restaurant, not a soccerball stadium.
