"I've been in football all my life and my time with Portsmouth is number one" I'm sure that will go down well with the Leicester fans.

Is that a euphemism for receiving brown envelopes from Cheats FC?

I think you may be very close to the mark with that conjecture. His plan A probably is to have a gamble in trying to go up with a limited investment. Hopefully his plan B is to strip them bare, and drop them in the shit, as soon as he sees plan A is going to fail.

Hypothetically, certain people in the FL may find nothing wrong with the "black holes" provided they are "filled" with brown envelopes.

.... a series of furious exchanges between the clubs has led to Portsmouth questioning Genoa's integrity. Unf**kingbelievable.

The Cheats FC takeover saga one in the lounge is always good for a daily laugh.

No, but it is yours! (Nice try, btw )

Well, if we try hard enough we may be able to uncover somewhere in the world a prison team made up of pedophiles, rapists and mass murderers, who could be considered even more disgusting than Cheats FC. Maybe.

They aren't subtle, are they? After years of getting away with cheating and breaking rules they are brazen and cocky about it.

Yes, but we're talking about Cheating Lying Bastards FC here, where up is down, back is front, an embargo means bringing in players, a wage cap means continuing spending like a drunken sailor, amounts owed to creditors swing wildly up and down by £100 million to suit their purposes, and every rule out there means nothing to them.

Oi! Careful. I resemble that remark.

Any creditor who voted for the CVA (i.e. everyone except HMRC, Hart and one or two others) is getting exactly what they deserve (which is probably SFA).

I think you're being too generous about AA: he'll round it down to 0p.

Sturrock at Saints: W 5 D 2 L 6 = rate of 50 points per season. And that with a squad decimated by injuries. Hardly out of his depth, and certainly no bloody disaster. You seem to be confusing Sturrock with Wigley (1 win in 14 league matches).

Which is exactly how the Leicester fans feel about Pearson.

A lot of saints fans were saying that about the other Nige.

We need a nasty Nige to turn it around, just like last time.

If I were a dishonest, self-serving crook "owner" of a despicable, morally-bankrupt cesspit of a club, I would skirt around a transfer embargo (using brown envelopes as necessary), bring in players at unsustainable wages, make excuses why I couldn't pay them on time, and see if said mercenaries can miraculously get my club close to promotion. If half way through the season it appears that my club doesn't stand a chance of going up, I'd renege on the wages (as well as paying anything to the idiotic unsecured creditors who voted for my CVA), and let the club (which I detest, but don't tell that to their moronic fans) free fall to oblivion. I'd still hang around and delay winding up long enough to pocket the remaining parachute payments of course, as well as getting 80% of all transfer fees of the players I could sell, and not give a toss about the 500 point penalties the FL will impose for breaking every rule in the book. All hypothetically, of course.

Well, that depends whether the said shoebox contains a brown envelope or two.

I've predicted this earlier - BC is gambling for the immense PL riches. It will be interesting to see what his plan is if they fail to go up this season.

L.O.L. :lol:

This.
