Are we better off than when Crouch was here?
OldNick replied to Channon's Sideburns's topic in The Saints
I have never met him, but can see he is not the most easy person to sociallise with. Although i have quite a few people who do from his hunting fishing lot and they say he is good company and bores them with his talk about football and Saints (they arent into football) Perhaps it must be hard having fans asking him the same questions and always trying to tell him to do his job. Even to the most mild mannered it would get tedious. -

I agree, and of course it also depends on whether you are coming at a position of strength. I would be surprised if he was as foolish to rub them up but as LS has said it seems he has been. Iam not getting these soundings but it may come from a source that is close to LS. -
Is that true, if so that is as good a news as when HR left. He was ther glue that held it all together and did a fantastic job when they were managerless.

But you used the reason you didnt post at weekends as you only post from work. You are just hen pecked and not ALLOWED to use it at home, probably been caught surfing for the Ladyboys. You may post up as many of your references (I didnt read it as its so laughable that you had to do something like that, and so it must have hit a nerve for you to go and try and deflect it) You are just a saddo who has trouble making friends , that you are bullied and to take it out you go on a rivals web site to try and give it the big one. Cue the, I went on a big holiday, I have a big job and have loads of offers, as Im so successful etc etc etc.

I think we both can Johnnie boy, Ho is a Ho and needs to be told

"You can say you're James Bond on the internet, no-one can prove anything. At last you have got something right. Only can post at work, lol not allowed a computer at home he might surf too much for the Ladyboys
-
Its a funny way of going about it. If he really wnated us to go into administration I would have thoguht he would be playing all the high earners not players who would be on very little wages compared to a lot on the books.
-
Pompey will be up for it and probably get at least a draw
-
I dont know, but the club may have to take low prices if they really are as deep in it as it seems. If the crowds could get back up to break even figures or better then it might ease things but that is going to be tough unless the yteam really starts to give fans faith.
-
Mick do you really think that those 2 have set the world alight. Yes both have come into form but to me neither yet would be a started for any PL side at present and so unless we are going to slash our asking price I cant see them sold.If any player who is playing to high standards is KD and so he might be the main target. Lallana may be seen as a prospect but would he command a fee like Theo or Bale, £1.5m is the most he'd be worth with add ons.

LS I havent heard any of that. Surely if the club need to increase the overdraft they have to get the banks permission. RL cannot just go on writing cheques. I may also add a few weeks back it was said on here that RL was not in charge anyway as he was basically being told by the special operations staff at barclays what to do. Therefore it doesn't square, whicjh one is correct, it is all very messy and confusing. I woud have thought RL was very much a banks man and so is part of their mindset and so would get on well. Could you give us a clue without compromising your sources what you mean about his ego upsetting the banks? -
I dont know. I assume that as SJ has gone then we can afford his appearance money or an agreement about it has been reached between him and the club.That i dont know but if my collegue up there is right Rudi is keener to play again.I didnt think it would be seen as a negative Mick.
-
A couple of weeks ago I posted that Rudi was going on loan to Ipswich. This came from a contact I have up there. I saw him yesterday and asked him why he gave me such a poor bit of info. He told me that now Rudi is playing he has changed his mind and wants to stay and play.Whether the club are happy with that our end i dont know but if Rudi is keen to get his heqad down and play then it can only be good for us
-
I think Giveitto Rons explanation of it was closer to the mark.
-
why didnt Pompey play, did HR take their invitation with him to Spurs?
-
The governor of the BOE gave a speech a few weeks back and in it he worded it that the banks should get their margins back, and at the time I said that it was a message that he would allow them to screw us all to get them back onto their feet. Some of my business collegues have been told that their unsecured overdrafts have gone up an EXTRA 4% and so they are paying 12-15% on the money.It will kill a lot of their businesses. As for LIBOR I can see why they cant cut their rates as if they are borrowing for 6% they cant lend to others for 4%.
-
Crouch is alleged to be on 80k a week, James perhaps 30-40k a week those players might not be very attractive to clubs in this climate on those wages.No doubt DeFoe is on massive wages as well, Pompey might not find it easy to rid themselves of such high earners and with all the nonsense about 'it was HR being the reason they joined, I believe it was down solely to £££££££££'s There you are Spasmodic, some transfer gossip for you that you say does not come up when the window has closed. You can go on the Man U site and taunt them that your new favourite team is going to sign Diarra.
-
the crowds have dropped at SMS by half, there have been a lot of sites pop up, the time between S4E and the web starting up meant some drifted to other sites etc etc.Add to that the poor results and fans cant be faffed to read all the depressing stuff. We need GB back that will get the site rolling or a good takeover rumour. If there is an event the first place people will look will be this site. also add the fact some resent paying £5 and so it is a lot of contributory factors IMO
-
Wow what a saddo you really are. Have you any friends in the real world? To spend time looking up things to try and make a point. Come on the site after a game or the next day with your stuff not 2 days later when you and your team are forgotten. As for Pompey in the top 10 thenm your memory is wrong as you were in the more in the early days of the season and only recently perked up, and so yes you did disappear when things were poor. Yes yes you were on holiday, no doubt the carer needed a break as well.

Thanks Snowballs. Im amzed the link up between RL and MW was not leaked and so credit where it is due on that one. It must have been difficult for some to keep quiet -
Now thats honesty for you a proper answer from an educated Skate

I understand your frustration Wes, and of course I know that you indeed are to be totally trusted by PM. The people involved may have been overcome by vanity/ego/or curiosity but I beleive their foremost reasons were for good reasons. I still say that if they were asked not to comment they were right not to do so. If it was of national importance then fine, but we are talking a football club and being a PLC it may be seen as sensitive information (it was very sensitive) Who else went to the meeting. I know Weston and FC did but was there a large group or just 3-4? -
yeah but......
