I know from personal experience that HMRC (or Customs & Excise as it was then) do not let go once they have their teeth in. Pompey will not get away with this - HMRC are effectively the law, and if they say the figure owed is 32m then that's it, whatever AA says. He can appeal, but he won't win - he's effectively taking on the UK government.

Already fed up with McCarthy and his mate creaming their pants about the Spanish

But they're not guaranteed bums on seats are they? So there'll be a lot of large half-empty grounds - especially as the ticket prices keep increasing and Joe Public feels even more of a squeeze.

Capello obviously made a big mistake not picking Anthony Pulis for the squad.

Well, there's your answer - skate or not Get James in there! FFS

You're a gay did well. As long as those French cheating b*stards don't win anything.

A British billion always used to be a million million, but the American definition of a thousand million seems to now be the accepted version worldwide.

Do you provide them with pen and paper, or do they have keyboard skills?

It is bad luck to change a house name. If you do you will probably all be murdered as you sleep. Don't do it.

Bought from the ticket office about midday. Have to wait for it to arrive in the post. And I was the only one there - I don't think they're rushed off their feet. Bad miscalculation I reckon - rule 1 is don't upset your customers, or take them for fools.

I'm lucky as now I'm officially an old f*rt so my ST has been reduced by £50. I'd be thinking twice if it hadn't been though. I think Cortese is out of touch - I wouldn't blame Luker, he's just got to deal with all the flak coming the club's way for some extraordinary decisions.

Can't they just "magic up" some more - after all, money doesn't exist according to you. If it doesn't exist, can I have yours?

Everything and everybody in the whole wide world since the dawn of time. There, I think Ive just about covered it.

England look as bad as Swindon yesterday. Oh dear

Are you my ex?

Went into the White Horse in Ampfield last night for a pint on my way home. About 10.20 on a Friday night About 3 people in there - 30 years ago it would have been heaving. Sad what's happened to the British pub - I have to say though that a pint and a J2O at £5.50 is a p*ss-take.

I really LOL'd a lot at that priest costume. Brilliant and very topical!

Talking of darts. Sid Waddell - what a c*ck!

Maybe their accounting year ends on the 8th July (Ist anniversary of the takeover) and so offering season tickets in their 2nd year gives them a tax advantage. That is, their their turnover and profit will be held back in the first year and any tax due would be lessened. Expect ST's to be on sale from 9 July.
