  1. I think it looks like a lot of talking is going on and it looks like a deal is coming together. Whilst they will be wounded, they will still be alive to get up to thier old tricks again. I think my £50 wager is safe, although i will pay up anyway as I dont want to cheat childrens charities!!
  2. I was a s/t holder for decades, but last season did not attend and will only do a few games this season. When I was a s/t holder it was always comforting to know if we got a major game getting a ticket was a done deal. I believe that is fair and so all the fans who travel home and away will now get priority and people like me who go to few games will have to sweat for tickets. it will hurt but it is very fair as long as they keep to the rules.
  3. I firmly believe that BC will take them on, he is just trying to use the scare tactics to get rid of most of the high earners. He will still have the shell of a football club that may well fund itself
  4. it is despicable that they are mentioning the players names. If the administrator put his hand up and said that he will waive his fees and BC as well then they would have the moral high ground. I think you will find the administrator also gets a cut of every sale as a commission and so he also gains on a move (Clapham is that correct?)
  5. amazing, I wasnt sure what he was going to use next!
  6. if you look at the picture from the news you can see in the background there is a sizeable contingent. Forget not the Naval connection and many may have traveled back to met an old flame at the dockyard
  7. i think our kit is great and the days of fans looking like walking deck chairs are in the past. Just need to get rid of the sponsors logo
  8. it has been edited now and the picture and Clyne's name corrected
  9. and we have Pompeys answer to Lucy Pinder
  10. TB has now lowered himself to feed from the sewer pipe like the rest of them. There he is lying on his back with his mouth open waiting to feed on the next log that falls his way. At no time does he consider the pain that 'great club' has inflicted on the creditors. For every free tour they have on a fan, they have begged, cheated hundreds more and the tax payer on their way to the top table.I suspect many of the decent Pompey fans squirm at the begging letter today and will hate the fact that such an act is being played out in the name of their club. I am always suspicious of the actions of these people and perhaps Trousers is correct that they are hoping to hoodwink the FL. I thought when we were given our points penalty that we were told we would not get our golden share or a bigger penalty if we appealed.
  11. So not toast then? Bloody hell im going to have to go and relaunch 'Pompey will get away with it Newco' If that comes to pass they would have dodged the bullet yet again.
  12. perhaps it is good business. The trialists told to go on their own steam and so costs are kept low, whilst no appearance money etc is paid to the contracted players
  13. Very interesting insight Pat. I didnt realise the Wright was treated badly.
  14. Hasnt Pompey been funded by local businessmen for the last 10 years, they of course did not intend to
  15. Until it was run around the Salisbury area, i had naively thought that there were people running the whole route not getting on and off a coach. hardly the Olympic spirit
  16. Oh dear i might have to reconsider 'they will get away with it' tm. I was confident last week reading on here that they were indeed finished , but seeing the likes Howard etc joining up as trialists and I may have a re-think. Taking on a no.2 shows that TB feels there is life in the club. Pretty disappointing really that they can still try and sign some decent players for that level.
  17. yep that will be good, although you know how things change in this saga, the name could be re-listed again !!!!
  18. I wonder how TB feels at present because it seems to me , that decision could well make his liability as an administrator land in his lap. It will focus his mind as he could well end up with the liability. This could hasten his decision what to do with the club
  19. PKF administrators have just made a statement announcing that due to unforseen circumstances 'Pompey will get away with it ltd' has been put into liquidation, as the director OldNick has been unable to trade on this since midnight on the 12/07/12. He would like to thank all who have been loyal to this brand,and looks forward to future business trading as 'I told you all along that they were toast' The companies assets £50 will be donated to a childrens charity of the customers choice.
  20. I assume we can take his word that it was just for the odd throw in. How many times did we seem to let late goals in and get draws not wins etc? It just underlines what contempt the players really have for fans. we pay, and are up for it every game when a percentage of them want their big pay packets and also happy to give a free kick throw-in etc just to get a bit more. Shameful that 2 of our players have held their hands up to this, and we call Pompey cheats
  21. No wonder NC does not wish to have anything to do with our past. Did Clau get his testimonial, if so he had fans pay for that as well.
  22. yet another subtle way of trying to get rid of a player on a legal contract. Once Varney , Norris and Kanu are gone then the whole of their efforts will centre on the 30k a week man
  23. i made a visit to the memorial yesterday, I was in London for a couple of days and felt I would show my respects. What a magnificent tribute it is. I read a few of the messages from relatives and it was very poignant. If in London go and visit it, the bronze is magnificent and the whole feel of the place is very respectful.
  24. these rumours are what makes forums fun. Well done, Turkish Id rather you post a snippet than keep it to yourself.
  25. speedy recovery Whitey
