he is desperately trying to find a buyer for the skates for one reason IMO so he will get his £2m, hence the rumour of the Canadian billionaire who Zahavi had as a contact

Nothing was made of the fact that Pompey's council were owed money. Now i know that it is difficult for them to push the button but i suspect a lot of the people arent interested in the football club and if they realise that they will have to find a bit more council tax to offset that debt may make them more inclined to want the council to get the money in. if not Im sure the club will put the council right to the bottom of payments in future. It must also be galling for a lot of PFC fans to know (they wont accept) that if Saints are successful and do get into the PL their grandchildren will become Saints fans (not all of them by a long shot, but a lot of the ones who live in the surrounding area and in time some of the city dwellers0

who's the one in the top corner with the eye patch?Do you get an eye patch free each time you go to FP and the incentive is if you go to 2 games you get one for each eye. Is it also a bit ironic that there is Parachute money dropping in to save them? It is a bit inaccurate as there seems to be a lack of brown envelopes as well.

if you like his smarm , constant refusal to accept their cheating and exaggeration he is a lovely bloke, of course we will miss his inside track from hos friends at the club Lol

Lol goodbye, I'm missing you already. You were always going to disappear when the s### really hit the fan. When things were rosy you were on here all the time bigging your club up. if people want to PM you then good for them, why they want to god knows. Your dramatic look at me 'Right i'm going now, post is as convincing as Drogbas fall and peek a boo the other night. lol. If you really meant it you would just disappear and not post, like most who dont want to have a look at me departure. I'm sure you will get a few from here asking you to please reconsider, your ego will be massaged and you will feel like Avram when he went to see his friends, for me I was happy to read your posts but if its goodbye, so long fair well, Auf wiedersehen, good bye You wont be able to keep away, no doubt you will come back under another name, how about Tiny Tears.

Redknapp on Meridian last night, i missed him being interviewed by Dineage, anyone here tell me what he said. i doubt it was too interesting, no doubt Spurs/England down to the bare bones!!

the difference is that a woman on the blob only stays like it for a few days. It is comical how he tries to argue that the money was not football related,I assume the 90k a week paid to the likes of Crouch etc was paid out of the gate receipts. We told him under MM that they were overspending but as always he wouldnt have it

if his heart was in pulling on a saints shirt then I'd like him to join us. He is a brave and committed defender, a player who will play on through the pain barrier.

Holepuncture you put the I 4-1 on your posts, why the Pompey expressions???

the Canadian billionaire mention in the papers today, saying Pinavi has introduced him to Birch. He does suermarkets and sperhaps sell FP and then open up elsewhwere.Also I thought Henderson etc didnt want to go a few weeks back, I assume he left his phone on this time now he is only getting 75% of his wages lol

Big Sam is certainly looking to have a massive squad. is he buying those 2 only to help keep Pompey alive or are they PL quality???? As for Tiny Tears Ho and his remarks, i have not been wrong during this saga, he cant say the same. What was it Tesco are going to pay £20m for the ground but Chanrai etc would get none of it Lol

probably, none of those quotes when we were so close to be gone forever though

and people scoffed when I and others say they will get away with it! I have said before that too many people at the top wish to keep the lid on dealings that may have happened when the cash went adrift. FA's throughout the world had dealings with Pompey, how much was dirty money? Iam amazed how other clubs let this happen, and lie down and let them do it.

very true, WHU should have been relegated due to the Tevez affair. I note WHU have loaned Piquionne out to Donny, he could make a difference to their season as well, whilst he is not a fantastic player he will be playing against us soon. As a footnote I met Westwood on friday he was setting up at an exhibition, none of his makeup or tattoos were on display. He was pretty sensible, but had to put 'I 4 1' in the conversation, I just laughed, he then added the date , sometime in 05. He was bemused that HR had got away with his case and had heard that a lot of the evidence was discounted due to a mistake processing it. He was not fazed by them starting again and said something about buying their history back if they went out of business aka Wimbledon, i wish i was on the ball enough to have said 'well you bought it the first time ,and so why not' Generally he is just a football fan, he was wearing a Pompey tie and as i passed i said I would be wearing my saints one and he replied 'fair play' none of the usual stuff you get when first meeting some of the thick skates.

That is why Gold was so keen for the FCR to go when he was on Sky sports the other night. They will be happy to take the minus 10 points if they go up this season as they would yet again get the extended parachute payments , spent 1 more year in the Championship as they rebuild for promotion again.

if you listen to his interview saturday that was put on here, he says that he knows people with money in the states and he is going to try and encourage them to invest. he is staying in England this week to talk to TB. With mates like him who needs enemies!!! i wouldnt like a friend to give me an 'opportunity' like Pompey thanks very much

the Sky special report was the weakest insight i think i have seen. A waste of 30 minutes of my life. To blame the revenue for not demanding the money earlier!!!! The clubs just put back paying the taxman and pay people who they need to keep the club running first, then worry about the penalties and interest later if at all. No doubt most football fans will sit back and think 'football is being attacked' Storrie really does have thick skin to go on national tv. I cant recall how much Pompey paid in image rights when they went into admin 2 years ago, i thought it was quite a lot but Storrie said last night he knew little about it as they had only paid a small amout as image rights.

It is amusing reading all the paper snobs on here. if people want to have a light hearted read so be it. As for the Leveson enquiry and people like Church (600k ffs) bleating on, it was only the scandal and tittle tattle that kept them high profile so long. We all want the good bits in life but those celebs who take the money by being in the red tops then don't like it when some un-savoury things in their life come out. As for Prescott, a man who courted Murdoch so he could have power.... what a hypocrite.

as they sell their tickets at cut prices in one of the more glamorous games of their season, just grab the sick bowl as the media start telling us how the fans are coming out in numbers to support their fantastic club in its hour of need

sorry my reply was to the Skates quote, we as Saints fans bought tickets for others etc etc at the time of our crisis

No but tickets were purchased by fans and given to others , 10 were bought and given out on the radio by a fan from here all to help funds coming into the club

does the lad they are selling to Liverpool come into the 14 fir player. How can they in 1 hand say they havent 14 and then still loan out. Also if they get loans in will they have to go straight back as soon as the 14 players are fit again? Slowly more fans on here are starting to believe like myself and a few others that the powers to be really dont wish for the can of worms to be opened.

BC will rue not pulling the plug on them, at least he would have got most of his money back. I suspect TB is looking very closely at the paperwork regarding BC's 17m and if he could somehow lose that debt Pompey would become saleable to the trust. I think it is the crux of the whole deal. Old Tiny Tears thinks that BC did not save them, all those plastic fumes he sucks in as he stacks the shelves is taking a toll. If BC had not helped by investing/giving a loan (when the rest of the world were not interested) Pompey were dead. For that act Im delighted if BC loses his money, I'll just as pleased if AA also gets his cumuppence as his manoevours also saved them. if a firm like TB had come in originally they would be gone by now,AA and BC who are now seen by them as villains really should be seen as Pompey heroes. They helped them carry on their cheating and Wigan of the South are still breathing

IMO Chanrai of all the people ever involved in your club, is the one you morons should be worshiping. If it was not for his money Pompey would have been gone forever. He fell for a bad business deal and got the runt of the litter. Yes he has since run the club to try and squeeze some money back but i would say without doubt that if he could put the clock back he would never have got involved in the first place.

Restructure their debts, = get the revenue etc to agree to take small payments over a long period. The CVA will also be strung out again. Its so galling that they are still alive and kicking but we should be used to it now. just wait for the players to flood in. They have a administrator who seems to be a bit more realistic and so the large wage packets may be a thing of the past
