slickmick Posted 21 July, 2009 Share Posted 21 July, 2009 With no money for new signings and the prospect of more to be sold, this will be curtains for Skates one way or another. Relegation is highly likely, then administration will almost certainly happen as the fake Dr Falim will have no funds to keep them afloat. There only hope is for another takeover.

sidthesquid Posted 21 July, 2009 Share Posted 21 July, 2009 I know I've gone on about this one before, but it is a jolly entertaining daily read for all of us who take an unhealthy interest in the (potential) downfall of Skate City -http://dralfahim.blogspot.com/. In his (and my) little fantasy world it's head we win - they go into admin, tails they lose - they take taken over by a potless clown.

aintforever Posted 21 July, 2009 Share Posted 21 July, 2009 I expect the Arab deal will go ahead but wouldn't it be fantastic if it fell through and they went bust? A few weeks ago they were dancing on our grave, now we've come back from the dead and it's them staring into an abyss full of ****e. If there is any truth in the laws of karma that Arab would pull out and buy Newcastle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The appointment of Sulaiman Al Fahim follows confirmation by the FA Premier League that he has passed its criteria to be deemed a "a fit and proper" person to control a Premier League club. Al Fahim is the first person to pass the new fit and proper test. Sulaiman Al Fahim said: "I very much look forward to working closely with the club's management and supporters to develop Portsmouth Football Club and deliver future success. The club has a long and fine history of achievement that I intend to build on." Peter Storrie, who has agreed to continue as chief executive officer of Portsmouth Football Club, said: "This appointment brings stability to the club and is excellent news for Pompey supporters. “I have every reason to believe that together with the new chairman we will be able to take the club forward to further achievements, building on the successes of the past three years.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wes Tender Posted 21 July, 2009 Share Posted 21 July, 2009 According to the ITN, the FA has passed Fahim as suitable to be the new owner and confirms him as their new chairman. Seemingly though, it states that he is the sole owner, suggesting that the others who were rumoured to be entering into a consortium with him have dropped out.

Miltonaggro Posted 21 July, 2009 Share Posted 21 July, 2009 In the long run it might pay the Blue Few to go into Administration now and take the 10 point deduction, rather than delay the agony of a potential 25 points when Gayinamac gets found out by the SOCA after his exit.
