To be fair, they might have different rules for Australians. I could understand that;)

Unless things have changed since I was there last, you need a ticket for hospitality, so they know how many are in the building. Unless you can only use the fire escapes in alphabetical order, it's not a safety issue.

Go for a PhD, you'll save yourself a fortune.

You can add to that list: or if the start a second successive season while still in administration or if they exit administration without a CVA IF they get to next season, to avoid starting with a whopping points penalty, they have to exit administration before August, and do it with a CVA voted for by Baker Tilley and/or HMRC.

Blooming heck. Selling tickets for £9.75 That's about £7.50 after VAT Might as well stick the CLOSING DOWN SALE stickers in the window at FP.

Only if they fly them empty. An average 747 will burn around 100 tonnes on a 10-hour trip, with say 300 passengers on board. Do the sums. And that's a 30 year old 4-engined long hauler. The modern twins are much more efficient. Statistics, eh?

It's a video. You need a player subscription. Amusing though.

And the bench? sub sub sub sub sub

55 Live in South Africa since '96. Not lived in Southampton since '77. First game at the Dell '69. Can't remember who it was against. First away Highbury early 70's. Best memory by a mile Orient away '78.

If the present owner agrees to sell it to them I don't see a problem. But I don't see them being able to do any sort of compulsory purchase based on a value with that restriction in place, if that restriction reduces the otherwise "open-market" value of the property. I imagine Chainrai is watching closely from Hong Kong.

The Portsmouth Development Plan is available on-line. If you read it you will see that what the Councillor is reported to have said is correct. The "restriction" is specifically for the benefit of Portsmouth Football Club. Not sporting use or football in general but specifically the club is named. Maybe an oversight, but that's what it says. I suppose it's always possible that there might be proper "restrictive covenants" on the title deeds. Somebody would need to check the land registry to find that out.

If we could get one of our subs to stand behind the opposition's goal shouting for a long pass, he'd score a shedload.

Or you could look at it another way. Most Football League clubs going into administration don't also have a pretty big wedge of parachute payments still to come from the Premier League, and the only way their Football Creditors can be settled is from the monthly money due from the FL. If TB explained to him that there's still more than enough to come from the PL parachutes to settle all the Football Creditors, with some left over, I think he would have found it difficult to argue.

Park 'n Ride from Sauchiehall Street

I know I've said it before, but don't forget Pompey don't have to pay CVA1. It's nothing to do with them, it belongs to their old company which is now in liquidation. Pompey do (or did before they went into admin again) have to make scheduled payments to Baker Tilley, starting on 1 April, to allow Baker Tilley to honour CVA1. Those scheduled payments aren't in the CVA, they're in (or should be in) the Sale & Purchase Agreement when AA sold (or gave) the club out of admin1 to Chainrai.

Culloden it is then

I see Chainrai is now The Last Resort That rings a bell somewhere. "Some rich men came and raped the land, Nobody caught 'em" "She heard about a place people were smilin' They spoke about the red man's way, and how they loved the land"

Did some gliding at Old Sarum waaay back. There were a few times when the sound of any engine would have been music.

You've forgotten the vuvuzela already?

I remember reading somewhere that the definition of an idiot is someone who repeats the same mistake over & over & over again, each time expecting a different outcome.

Most international games are pretty poor these days tbf

Nick Holmes, but with added talent

Another plus point in the playbook's favour. I discovered last night going up to bed with 2 glasses of orange squash in my hands that the PlayBook is small enough to fit in the pocket of my shorts.

Not a bad result that, eh?
