Torres Posted 14 April, 2013 Share Posted 14 April, 2013 So despite the £8m (or so) parachute payments being received over the next 10 months, they're actually paying football creditors off over the next 4 years, presumably hoping they can meet those obligations from future revenue once they've used the PPs to pay Chinny, PKF/BDO and the PCC and use any left over to build a team for next season. Even if they avoid another administration over the next few years I'm going to bet we'll see at least one transfer embargo applied by the FL after they miss a scheduled payment to the FCs - assuming they remain part of the Football League...

Son of Dave Posted 14 April, 2013 Share Posted 14 April, 2013 Apart from the bickering & in-fighting, their fans demanding to know why they do not have a competitive team, empty boasts about being the best (at everything), needing to re-negotiate their re-negotiated compromise agreements with ex-players, senseless spin from the News, complaints that it is unfair to impose the points penalty next season, more shifting of blame (that was the old Co), what do we have to look forward to anymore ?

The Kraken Posted 14 April, 2013 Share Posted 14 April, 2013 A Brentford fan's take on their game yesterday, over on the Pompey site: Did you Pompey fans think you were loud yesterday? Wow! Couldn't hear a thing all game mate. Admittedly, the Griffin Park was was not as loud as usual. The place was nervous, nail biting the whole game. If we lost, automatic promotion would have been over! And, you thought your fans were hard done by. Our stewards are totally useless. Pompey fans were all over the ground and Old Bill and Stewards did not chuck them out. " brentford fans were chucked out for attempting ask them were they pompey fans??. As for the Pitch invasion, you just showed what scum you are. At first, everyone though it was because of the Clubs secured future. But why just running over to the home ends and start causing agro outside? Anyway, enjoy league 2 and I hope you do a Luton ya inbred gypgys!!! :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rallyboy Posted 15 April, 2013 Share Posted 15 April, 2013 Despite local reports and street parties for the dim, the club is still in administration. Fact - or so I thought... Pompey fans celebrated in style at Brentford as the team played for the first time since the club was bought by its supporters. The News, Saturday. It was the first game since last week’s news at the High Court that the Trust WILL be gaining control of the club. The News, Monday. Is that an intentional step back towards the reality, or an example of sloppy reporting? Ditto the Mirror. What a pointless piece that was. Especially as it tried for no reason to link Thatcherism with pompey - totally disregrading the fact that government policy on football in her time was influenced by people who randomly ran onto pitches and threatened violence. That's the only link I can see. Far from congratulating the few I think she'd have been banging them up and fencing them in. Though in the new era of transparency I see that the Trust is saying that the pitch invasion was both of a friendly celebratory nature, and was in response to provocation. Which is it? Make your mind up. An observer might suggest that it looks like a fanbase out of control, and who may in the future have access to the boardroom. But no deal has been done yet, and some media need reminding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
