funny how the younger talented players on low wages are easy to offload but the disinterested overpaid ones just take root and eventually have to be chased off the premises with a shltty stick. (see the case of Walcott/Bale v Rasiak/Saga) They're going to have a team containing so much deadwood you could stick a sail on it and relocate it in the historic dockyard.

so pompey could lose their most promising prospect through trying to rip him off? AA needs to stand up with his hand of twos and threes and tell the rest of the poker club that they can't just take HIS players and that he will refuse derisory offers...he has excellent cashflow and doesn't need to sell, there will be no firesale, in fact he is looking to recruit rather than sell, they are building a premiership club to last a thousand generations etc.... Unless his puppet master wants half a million quid spending money. And as Avram says, 'you can't break their spirit but you can take their coaching staff'.
-
will they start bringing in new players from as early as monday now Maradona is free of international duties? The CVA is all sorted and AA had an email from some Ukranian, so now that the final managerial piece of the jigsaw is in place i guess we can close the thread.
-
he went back to Germany to vandalise parked cars, look for midfielders to cripple and gather some more cheap-looking tattooes - and he ticked all boxes!

Never let your ignorance of the facts prevent you from having a strong opinion on any subject - and imposing it on anyone who is dim enough to listen. I see no facts, no story - until the names are dropped I will remain bubbling under in a pre-outraged state, just in case - ready to launch at short notice.

I think you'll find that was Dindane who they were contracted to buy as a development of the loan deal (twice according to Storrie's version of events) but refused/didn't. A bit like borrowing someone's car to go to the station and returning it a year later. I'm sure AA tried to sell O'Hara to Spurs. And they will have paid up, with all the little benefits that accompany such a deal!
-
Lazio should agree to £8M but only give them £1.6M - and not until 2015. It shouldn't be a problem as 20p in the pound is a rate that AA regards as fair.
-
Pompey are close to agreeing the £8m double sale of Nadir Belhadj and Prince Boateng to Lazio. 1. I don't see them getting that amount. 2. What little 'specials' did Storrie write into the original deals? 3. After all parties have had their cuts will they clear £4M? 4. Two prize assets sold for just one month's wages? 5. Will AA manage to shuffle any proceeds straight across to his puppet master? 6. Are Lazio interested in Pulis?...
-
they all need to be castrated, that would calm them down and help them concentrate on football, it should be part of the signing on process for players above maybe League One status. That would give the playoffs a bit more edge. And they could stand more relaxed when defending free kicks around the edge of the box. Maybe their clubs could recoup some of the wages by selling their frozen sperm through the shop as image rights?

shooting sounds like the only answer - go for a close range 'head, heart, stomach' grouping in quick succession and that sparrow ain't getting up. If it's in a public place like a park, after the shooting just walk away casually, no one will stop you, and get a reliable wheels man with something like an impreza. If that gives you the buzz you're seeking move onto cats and then women, traditionally this is the progression for most serial murderers who find they can justify killing prostitutes or any women out after 8pm by convincing one of the multiple-personalties roaming through their heads that they are 'cleaning the streets' - it often stems from impotency as well. But be wary, smear mud or dog's muck on your face so you can't be seen in the dark and check the rear lights on your little Metro, you don't want to be caught for just a minor traffic offence. Finally, less time killing, more time digging - a shallow grave will always be found, then again one of your other multiple personalities may want that and make you leave clues - but start with a sparrow and see if you can cover that atrocity first.

if anyone's organising a hit it's likely to be the arms dealer, and I don't mean a sugary pop ballad from the Simon Cowell stable. Shouldn't be too long before someone discovers that the Russian/Israeli mafia doesn't like the sound of 20p in the pound.
-
it's amazing how much interest he's generated in such a dire squad. They were proven to be the worst team over 38 games yet in a football recession when wages are key, AA has dozens of clubs locked in bidding wars over his star players - he should be able to name his price! Or looking at Hutch's research (far too much spare time!) maybe fibs spill out of AA's gob every time he opens it.
-
the two hypothetical families may be in the same mess but the difference is that the authorities will come down heavily on the ones that continually flick two of their eleven fingers at creditors. And the fact that one family has a wife and a sister who only requires one bus ticket.
-
all football decisions are on hold while Maradona is still involved in the world cup, and they won't be able to complete signings until the Spanish and Brazilian players are free to talk. It may seem like nothing is happening but more money pours out of the club everyday - astronomical wages, crippling interest - it's all gathering pace behind the scenes. With the use of a calculator and an anorak I would estimate they've run up £100 more of overheads debt in the time it took you to read this post. And another £100 while you're thinking about it.
-
Roy Lunnis only died about three months ago, I believe his finest hour was kicking Paine around for an afternoon.
-
the biggest fear from AA was that an interested party would actually 'have a look' - they'll never be seen again. Far easier to sell the club on the glossy brochure than the reality, especially when big progress is judged by 'getting an email' or 'thinking about setting up a meeting'.
-
Terry still sounds proper Ampshire! Good lad. And when a lad, Arthur English used to be the grocery shop's boy riding his bike around Aldershot. Never said it was interesting, just a fact!
-
if they can hang onto Kanu and James they will be bankrupt again before Christmas. Wakey wakey, it's time to offload players to stabilise the business, not build a squad for the imaginary Europa League campaign that AA is still working on, and charging for. If he continues to work on team strengthening he will turn a damaged club into a liquidated club. And if it's all just crazy talk to sell season tickets, there's no change there, and some of the fans aren't as dim as he thinks. Some aren't, many are.
-
at least he got paid unlike the man who lifted the trophy. Imagine if Peter Rodrigues had never got his wages in 76 and the club offered him 3p a year per £? They celebrate the trophy but gloss over the theft and criminality that surrounds it.
-
In the comments I see the few blindly abusing a taxi firm that had the audacity to ask for more than the annual 4p in the pound (less expenses!) of the money stolen from them by Pompey. I bet those terminally-ill children will be banging on next about their money as well. Why can't they just let plucky Pompey get on with it? Sometimes it's best to accept that your club is the guilty party and to keep it shut. Anyway, how's the prossie-botherer getting on, I do miss his comedy routines, is he still creeping around industrial estates looking for filthy smack heads in mini skirts? They can afford someone to drive him to brothels but they can't break his spirit etc
-
so another raft of AA's masterplan is to shaft some of the football creditors. He must now be trailblazing on behalf of the taxman in abolishing that rule or he doesn't want the club to be in a league next season. Surely under current rules he has no choice but to pay the football debts in full, or dispute them and pay the reduced amounts in full? I'm sure the PFA will let their debt go and that Stade Rennais won't be knocking Sepp Blatter's door off it's hinges as I type. They also admit to agreeing the deal with Sol. An open and shut case, pay up or drop out of the league structure?

Special offer - two admins for the price of one!! The more expensive one traded insolvently, or your money back! well, a really small percentage of it if you're lucky. Be reckless with cash twice in ten years and we the taxpayer will bale you out, no penalties, no catches. Offer lasts until the CVA is read by the taxman's lawyers.

the cheating was mainly in misleading the Prem with a false statement of accounts so that the transfer embargo was lifted to allow 'urgent fundraising'. But none was attempted, the debts were left unserviced. Instead the wagebill for an already unaffordable squad was increased as the team was strengthened, clearly an attempt to gain an illegal advantage on the pitch, which they did, all the way to Wembley on money they are now going to steal from local businesses and the taxman. And when the local school can't afford a new computer or the hospital has to close a ward the few can just look back proudly on a cup run and remember that it was taxpayers who funded the trip, the kids will be backward or untreated, but Utaka got his image rights and the fans cheered all the way. Though my favourite was the club's trick of raising money for a children's cancer charity, and keeping it. That's called theft, and for the club to leave it to the fans to bail them out of that crime sums up the people who are still running Portsmouth FC, oh yes, the people who stole the cash are still there in the director's box, heroes to the few - after all I see no protests. Some things can be defended, but there are now far too many incidents defined as cheating or criminal, the club's name has been forever tarnished.

I don't like to kick creditors when they're down but anyone who said yes to 4p in the pound per year LESS the administrator's expenses is an idiot and deserves to be ripped off. I cannot imagine a situation where a normal businessman would accept that - I would happily write off my 3p to dance on the corporate grave of any company that tried to steal money. That document looks like theft on a grand scale, live the dream and pay it back in dribs and drabs. I look forward to HMRC getting into the detail, establishing the facts, and showing this farce up for what it is.

so that will be two of Chanrai's investor friends then, fresh from their appearances in the director's box. I do hope they've loaned dirty money to Chanrai/the club and linked these new tax evasion enquiries to the rest of the court cases. It would be hilarious if it was these two that are funding the admin illegally!! The fraud squad will need a pack of cards pretty soon - is Storrie the ace as he brings everyone else down?
