  1. Are you thick or something? They use it to buy tickets.
  2. I hope he doesn't accuse Jason Puncheon of being predisposed, or he'll end up with a thick lip.
  3. It's that friggin' Sky curse again, innit?
  4. 1. CWA = Chancers Without Answers (I nicked it from your lot on the News site) 2. £11.7m was last August. Birch has spent half of that since then 3. The PFA will not get their money if PST takeover if they agree to let the parachutes be used to fund the purchase (which is what PST are trying to do by pledging what's left of the parachute payments in exchange for cash loans now)
  5. Except that Taylor is no mug. He knows the CWA are bust, and that in this case if your lot do take over No club = no money Club = no money
  6. You've gotta admire Chainrai. He's sitting back (probably with a box of popcorn) watching the PST fighting tooth and nail to steal the parachute payments from the football creditors so that they can pass them on to him in exchange for the keys to FP. And if they fail, up steps the Harris mob to rent FP from him for ever and a day, and if they fail too then Birch will give him FP as part of the liquidation of assets. Don't ever play chess with him.
  7. 6,22,28,31,32,46 and the Bonus Ball 17
  8. I lived in Silver Lakes until about a year ago. I live about a mile away now, but I didn't hear nuffink. Honest. p.s. Silver Lakes is a very highly patrolled gated security estate. Burglaries are EXTREMELY rare. Just saying, like.
  9. I'm not a twit, but I'm sure those of you that are have reminded the other twits that follow you (is that legal?) that the PFA submitted a claim to the administrator on behalf of it's members for £26million. After playing for half a season for not much more than travelling expenses instead of wages, the team were then abused and threatened, and after much compromising, agreed to settle for only £8million instead of 26. The PL will generously donate that £8million to PFC free of charge. What's the problem? In reality if any new facts did emerge yesterday they are buried under mountains of spin, waffle and hope. But the gameplan HAS changed. This wasn't a routine 14-day postponement that we're used to. As soon as it came out the CWA propaganda machine went into overdrive. They've even given us all of the information that was previously "secret for legal reasons". I think Birch is resolved to let them have their day in Court next week if they want it - a sort of "put up or shut up" ultimatum. He's had enough of being made scapegoat by the same idiots that he's been bending over backwards for a year to try to help. He CAN afford to do this now, because he has a viable alternative, one that is approved by everybody except, CURRENTLY, the FL. Remember the Trust have to solve ALL of these obstacles just to get into Court, where they will probably lose anyway. It's a shame really, because I would rather have seen the Trust succeed, and move forward with a divided fanbase, a divided Board, divided owners, meagre income and a mountain of debt. Minus ten pints for next season would have been very nice as well, but you can't have everything.
  10. I haven't got it here with me in the office, it's on my tablet at home, but from memory the words are that the delegated officers (CEO & Council solicitor) have to go back to the council if any of the details increase the Council's risk in any way.
  11. Both were required as part of the August loan offer. If PST can't give both then they have to go back to the full council.
  12. I'm just wondering, Guy, would 20,000 fans all paying £30 a head at every home game help?
  13. Whatever it is that their russian owner's wife is doing for the lads in the changing rooms at half time is obviously working.
  14. Bookies have 4 odds-on. They think QPR & Reading are already gone, and the last place between Wigan & Villa. We're at about 5-1 against.
  15. That's about the size of it. You can read it here.
  16. This is a direct quote from the PST lasagne's mouth: I think that's as close as I've seen to a direct admission that they haven't actually got the money to continue. Draw your own conclusions with respect to any potential Court action on Thursday. I think Birch's patience is running out fast.
  17. Since the saggy-faced charlatan took over they have gained 6 points on Wigan. That's it. They have matched Newcastle and fallen further behind everybody else in the relegation scrap. 'Triffic 'Arry.
  18. It was a very quick and simple change to the "reworked" business plan. They moved "PCC Loan" into the "Guaranteed by Parachute Payments" column, and the "Football Creditors" into the "Something Will Turn Up" column.
  19. Ah, but with SONAR you can pick up things that the normal human ear wouldn't hear.
  20. "Ready to go" is so last-week. "Where has it gone?" is much more this-week.
  21. No. If they implode between now and the end of the season they could drop down to second.
  22. It looks as if the answer to your question is no.
  23. Yeah, but that's just a short jetlag-free hop to Kobe and back, compared to poor Yaya Toure, who had to travel all the way from Jo'burg, one way.
  24. 3 - 1 Wasn't that the same result we got against Dagenham & Redbridge a couple of years ago?
