How about the same sort of idea, but the club issue new shares in exchange for the cash investment. Enough shares that Crouch would be able to block any future attempts to oust him.

Lets say Crouch paid the £6M into the club, and then Wilde and Lowe quit as suggested. They'd still be shareholders, what's to stop them coming straight back and chucking Crouch out again?

How does a dutch bloke who no-one has ever heard of develop really good contacts in England? I think we are being strung a line here. How's this for an idea? Employ a manager who knows the Championship already, then we wouldn't have to waste money on fees to this bloke. The 'cost saving measure' of the dutch experiment looks more and more flawed by the day.

Is the £6M supposed to be payments to Lowe and Wilde, or money into the club? If it's the second option then fingers crossed. I don't know what sort of money Crouch has.

Sorry, I thought it was obvious, but I guess I should have put one of these.

If we win every game between now and the end of the season, then perhaps. Only perhaps though, I'm making no promises.

Oh right. Well, if she's been drinking booze paid for by me, I'm very disappointed that she hasn't put out for me. It's bloody annoying when girls do that.

He's talking about when Lowe was in charge, prior to her being involved in the club. So unless you know of some random bloke who buys her booze, then yeah he was having a go at her wealth.

Bit dramatic isn't it? Unlike you to have a dig at someone's wealth as well, especially as you take the **** out of people for the exact same thing when it comes to RL.

Pompey haven't gained 3 points in a game since November, I don't think we need to worry about them..........

Not sure she was ever on the board of SLH, wasn't she just on the board of the football club?

Lol, he still knocked you out. Were Mullins and Pele on your list of potential signings, by the way?

I quite liked the bit where an ex director bought a big chunk of the clubs' debt so that he had more power over the club.

Was SB banned, or did he just 'go away'? Edit: Oh yeah he was banned wasn't he. This is clearly him under a new name.

It looks a lot more permanent than the appointment of Dodd and Gorman ever did.

Slow?! He seems to have taken about 5 seconds choosing his replacement. I wish he'd taken a bit longer.

He only gets three posts a day, he has to make the most of them.

Interestingly, there's a match tomorrow. Maybe this is the pre match conference?

Nineteen Canteen is my hero. :smt005:smt057

Not sure what our chances are of having someone there. No-one even seems to know when it's taking place. Wouldn't be all that surprised if it's not even a 'press-conference' as such, more a case of giving a couple of interviews to the press. Will anyone other than the Echo even bother turning up?

I'd never buy an LCD without either reading good reviews or seeing it in action (or preferably both). Decent specs doesn't always translate to a decent TV.

Just saw that, not the Pele who played for us though.

Would be quite funny actually. I wonder how hard it would be to get past security and stage a sit down protest at the press conference. If you had 20+ people I can't see them being able to stop you.

Did I miss the announcement by Saints that he'd torn his achilles?

Yes he is. May have played for NI but he's not from there.
