Dark Munster

AA will use three things to show that they can service the administration: parachute payments, parachute payments, and Mr. Gregory. OK, maybe not the last one. Somehow Cheats FC have convinced the PL to forward enough (perhaps) to allow them to limp along to when the remainder of the next installment is due, no doubt with the promise that they'll get their house in order then. In reality, as soon as the remainder is received the person at the front of the queue with his hand out (I won't mention who) will be off to HK faster than a pair of knickers falls down in Portsea, finally pulling the plug on the rotten corpse of a club once and for all.

As nice a gesture as that would be, I think he prefers going for quality over quantity.

Nice one rallyboy. Another post to go into the PTS Greatest Hits compilation when this is all done and dusted. Now if HMRC can choose a QC who is this time slightly more competent than the teaboy or a toy salesman, maybe, just maybe, he or she can actually convey some of the above in court, and get the cesspit closed down once and for all. The Cheats FC-expunged table looks very tasty. Talk about killing 2 fish with one stone.

Saints are preparing a team for that scenario ...

12 goals in 67 appearances.

There can be no replacing Cheats FC. If the rotten festering cesspit of a club ceases to exist, there can be no other rivals. I may even have a twinge of sadness over their demise, since it's been fun watching their slow death. But if they're gone I'm sure I'll get over it, given enough time.

Insane.

Chinny shot his wad last season in his quality over quantity gamble to go up. I predicted then that he'd pull the plug if (as we expected) it would fail. But this was postponed temporarily as he succeeded in finding a couple of crooks (allegedly) with filthy money to keep them running for half a year or so. Now that Chinny is within touching distance of his next beloved parachute payment, I'm sure he's not going to lose any sleep over any strings attached to bringing it (and maybe the last one too) forward. The last thing he wants to do now is waste money on trivial things like players and staff salaries. If the FL tell him that Cheats FC have to go down 13 divisions, along with a 150 point penalty, to have those payments brought forward, I'm sure his response will be "where do I sign?"

For Cheats FC it's more like turn on the sprinklers, and pray for freezing temperatures, so we don't have to pay match day expenses.

Well it looks like I have to revise my opinion of Voldemort. He is as stupid as he looks.

Cheers saintmatt.

And everyone lived happily ever after. Except TCWTB and the rest of the phew.

Well that's certainly true Voldemort, considering Cheats FC aren't paying him anything at the moment. Comment from skate stever2011 "So angry. Another pointless season. Chanrai certainly isn't winning any fans on this one. Someone step in for God's sake and do something. This will affect morale all round." Yes, that could be literally true, after the FL hit your cesspit of a club with a bigger points deduction than Luton and Bournemouth combined. Fortunately (as we found out) the FL doesn't give a toss if circumstances they didn't plan for do occur. They simply make up a new rule, and give the offending club a good rogering anyway.

Yes.

A new avatar for Alps .....

HCDAJFU. No thanks!

You mean like the Wally with the brolly?

^ This. Mourinho would be great. Second choice for me would be O'Neill. Third choice Hodgson. Hiddink is also a good shout. Saggy Chops it is then.

Not to mention that he most likely hasn't lent nearly as much (real) money to Cheats FC as he claims. Good God, I'm beginning to sound like Corpse.

Are the wheels falling off the bus?
