In the second video on 45 seconds... "this is the cathederal of P*mpey, where all the loyal fans go" Cut to the inside of a pub with him and just 2 others in the background. Lol

It doesn't change the point that you are making but they actually only managed 3 subs... Maybe if they didn't pay they players they have so much they would be able to afford a few more of them.

I agree with Verbal.

1 - 0 down to Barnet. Barnet have had 64% of the possession. Only 2 outfield players on the bench Now where did I leave my violin...

I'm one of the few people in the world who can not abide tomato ketchup. F'ing revolting stuff! It amazes me that other people are so keen to smother almost any meal with it.

Or indeed a turd post... ;-)

The quote is even worse when you see the gesticulation which accompanied it. I saw him on the news last night and everything about his response to the question looked like he'd planned how he should react and practically screamed "I'M LYING!"

I have 6 halogen lights (I think 50w) linked in pairs to a single transformer (with 3 outputs). The transfermoer has blown and I'm buggered if I can find the same one on-line ( it was already installed when we bought the house a year ago). I also don't seem to be able to find a alternative trasformer with multiple outputs that doesn't cost an absolute arm and a leg. Does anybody have any recomentadions? If I get 3 transformers can i split the input cable easily enough? I've never tried to play wit my electrics before (just incase my lack of knowledge wasn't totally obvious). Thanks in advance as always, CS

Exactly

I suspect it will take until next closer season before we hear anything but that is a bit finger in the air. Unfortunately its a bit "how long is a piece of string?" The investigations won't affect the current trading entity (or are very very very unlikely to anyway) and any action is likely to be against the individuals involved (the directors). Any impact on the club as it stands now is more likely to come from the fa.

It would also be interesting to know the full structure of the deal through which the russians bought the club. I'm happy to be corrected but I think that they/chainarai/both have confirmed that at least a large chunk, if not all of the amount they are to pay has been deferred. If they have paid nothing up front they could have nothing to lose if the cva and with it the business fails. It wouldn't surprise me if chinny has accepted fully deferred consideration but retained his security over the ground (I think somebody confirmed this a few pages back?). If so they russians take a punt on promotion and an uplift in value but take no risk as they never actually paid for anything and chinny gets to sell the stadium to tesco but still remain "the man who tried his best to save the club".

Wow. This thread has really picked up speed in the last couple of days. Without bothering to respond directly quoting each post there are a couple of points. An administrator/liquidator will publish a summary of receipts and payments. This is all that really matters in a formal process and is NOT an indication of profit as would be stated in a set of annual accounts. Poopey ARE currently servicing the CVA, primarily because the servicing cost to date has been £nil. It will be interesting to see what happens in april, however without a significant change in fortunes I'd be amazed if they get to the end of the CVA. The events constituting a failure of the CVA will be specified in the CVA doc (I havn't trawled through it) as well as the resulting implications however long story short and in practical terms I expect them to default on payments sooner or later and be placed back into administration again. This would be a new administration process as the old one ended when the cva began. I still think it will end in tears (theirs not ours)

Thanks guys. I think it's fairly clear that although I did need the guy to come and put the socket in, we've been done. Does anybody know what the cause of the bad reception might be? It does seem strange that it can be perfect for days and then totally unusable one morning for no obvious reason before then getting back to normal.

I hope that somebody on here knows about these things and can offer some advice but... Up until a couple of weeks ago we were receiving perfect reception on an old analogue aerial. There were 3 sockets in the house (2 in use). After badgering from the Mrs “we” decided to get an additional socket installed in the top bedroom which we currently use as an office. A chap came round a quoted £85 to put the new socket in and hook everything up. All fine so far. An installer came round a few days later (whilst I was at work) and persuaded Mrs CS that we needed a booster unit because 4 sockets was too many to run from the aerial and was “diluting” the signal. He also persuaded her that the old aerial was loose and that although it wasn’t strictly required she would be better off getting a digital aerial. This ended up costing £200 but the reception was awful and genuinely unwatchable (all aside from the fact that anybody competent enough to give a quote should have spotted the issue before hand). After an unimpressed phone call the guy came back and this time persuaded Mrs CS to part with another £50 (yes I know) for a splitter box (or something very similar) to split the cable properly (apparently the pervious set up was just a bunch of cables taped together). Now the signal in the main is fine, however intermittently it still goes through periods where it is impossible to watch anything at all. I thought this might be weather related but it happened again yesterday when there was no wind/rain to speak of at all. Anyway, I’ve thrown a tantrum and the guy is coming back again on Wednesday when I will be here. I suspect that the reception at the time will no doubt be fine making my argument difficult but I need to get this sorted. Does anybody know enough about aerials to be able to make suggestions as to what the problem might be? If he can’t fix it them I’ll write a letter of complaint, copy in the credit card company etc to try and get some money back but right now I just want a tv that doesn’t become unusable once every week. Thanks in advance guys, CS

Lol. Maybe.

Wow. This thread seems to have got a little out of hand, however... The fact that the codeword was taken from the name of a dog is interesting. The name itself can hardly be described as fundamental though. Dune, until others pointed them out to you, you don't seem to have cared at all about the numerous (deliberate) errors in the previous version of the film. To fixate upon the dog's name is frankly ludicrous. On a side note, the original film airbrushed my Great Grandfather from history. I would have thought a much more historically relevant point than the name of a dog.

Nothing wrong with that! Although it seems a long way off when you're sat in doors studying it'll be worth it in the end.

I don't think I said that... To be honest I haven't had the will to read the who CVA agreement. However I did say that, I don't think that Chinny has paid a singe penny to buy the club this time around. From what I have seen it appears to me: The current company (new co) purchased the club from the old company (old co) which had gone into administration and was subject to the CVA. The purchase price is equivalent to the payments required to service the CVA. The CVA payments have been postponed and as such b*gger all has been paid by the new co for the club.

"Pompey are still waiting for the potential takeover of the Convers Sports Initiatives group to go through to allow work to begin on recruitment, though." Wasn't this days away... weeks ago?

I'd assumed that was his daughter...

Decisions decisions... Take my wife out for our first anniversary and stay married or go to this game and risk divorce.

I'll happily donate

Quite so. However if I point this out his brain will probably melt and so I just stear clear.

I work with a Brighton fan. He is foaming at the mouth at the thought of being able to get one over on Adkins after his "we're every other team in the league's cup final" (or something very similar) comment. Even metioning the game gets him started on a 20 minute rant about how they're going to "ram it down his throat". They're also looking to reach a record points total. The fans are definately up for it. I doubt the players will be any different.
