holepuncture Posted 18 July, 2013 Share Posted 18 July, 2013 #factlessallen seems to be on the case of the spaz who hid the skate shirt in the building work, stirring some rather ironic indignation on twitter. Apparently the guy won't be paid. Imagine that, a football club not paying for work done... I can imagine about £150 million instances of a football club not paying up what they owe... in this instance however SFC owes the skate f*ck all as he didnt complete the work to specification, in fact he completely screwed the whole job up along with his career! The skate seems to be quite boastful about it on twitter, even bragging that he hasnt sent his invoice yet in the breath confirms he will not be paid, all work has to be completely reversed. PMSL, if only it was old Corpy! This is the skate mug who will struggle to get any decent work going forward, he seems pretty happy publicising his fifteen minutes of fame https://twitter.com/MichaelTylerJnr Just got banned from Scum sites and Leadbitter. no I was banned from working with leadbitter again. Fair enough. A prank/banter went wrong. well its been put right now and at our expense. So hopefully thats it. LOL, the skate is putting a brave face on it but he knows full well how serious it is getting blacklisted by a major construction firm, in that industry he could well be wiped out of work with all major firms for the rest of his days, its common practise: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-22817084 LOL, great prank all round, shalala Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clapham Saint Posted 18 July, 2013 Share Posted 18 July, 2013 http://www.newsnow.co.uk/A/656929713?-11209:804 And so it starts. ‘There are three players we would like to try to do. ‘Massaging it, changing it and looking at ways of doing things, it’s fantastic what people can come up with. If the HNW individuals are putting their hands in thier pockets then fair enough. If not then this quote just sums everything up perfectly. Presumably some of the the fantastic things include: Not paying the PAYE Not Paying the VAT Stretching payments to creditors Spending money that will be needed in the second half of the season now - I'm sure soemthing else will turn up to plug the hole. Anyway, I'm sure it's all in the budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andysstuff Posted 18 July, 2013 Share Posted 18 July, 2013 It's fine them there 10,000 season tickets smashed financial expectations. They can obviously afford a little bit extra in the budget now.

hutch Posted 18 July, 2013 Share Posted 18 July, 2013 It's been mentioned before, but although selling tickets is a very good thing, selling season tickets isn't. Particularly when most of the phew have bought up at the heavily-discounted early bird prices of around £250 ex VAT (less for kids & concessions). That's an average of less than a tenner a head for Pompey. They really are going to need bumper crowds at every game just to reach their projected income. We were told (from memory) that they had budgeted on something like 13,500 gates including 8,000 STs. Selling 10,000 discounted STs means they will need around 15,000 average at every game just to meet their projections. I can't see gate money providing a bonus for Guy's player budget.

rallyboy Posted 18 July, 2013 Share Posted 18 July, 2013 We all suspected that they would ignore the budget and the debt, but even I thought they could make it out of July before taking the ******. If they really are going to rip up their dodgy back-of-envelope, hopeful-in-the-extreme accounting plans already, they are following the exact blueprint of the nasty criminals that they so pluckily shooed away. Perhaps not though, maybe McInnes will remind Guy of the plan to rebuild the business in a sustainable manner and deny him further funding? And perhaps, on the very same day, Avram will spy a comely crack addict in a mini skirt and walk directly past without breaking stride.... They have the chance to turn their back on insolvency right now and stick to the budget - but tradition looks alive and well in Portsea. No doubt the Parachute Payments will justify any overspend. Because it's not like the council, football creditors, the CVA, or Robinson are owed anything. Go on Guy, spend, spend, spend! The pompey Way.

If it works out it works out, if not then so be it. The HNW investors are businessmen - Mr Williams has a successful business - I am sure they know how to come up with a business plan and I am sure they would of accounted for discounted season tickets pre takeover as they would of had to put some projections together. I do not expect the board or PST to start banding around figures to be honest - its a business and ergo will have some things that are confidential.

rallyboy Posted 20 July, 2013 Share Posted 20 July, 2013 Mero old boy, the problem is that the Trust has failed to live up to the new transparent era that was promised, no one expects sensitive info to be released but the club has been partly saved by people donating their £1000, and those people could expect to be given a few more basic facts. It has been made very clear that sustainability is the key, you may have noticed that the club nearly went to the wall through overspending, twice recently. McInnes set a budget in stone, the bloke from Bury assured everyone that he would not break that budget, it all sounded very sensible for a week or two. Now they are talking about overspending, and we haven't got into August - Guy is turning into Cotterill/Appleton, let's hope he can continue to replicate their heroic records. So what became of the sensible spending approach? Despite the plucky 10K, there must be little spare cash, and loans need paying back in the next few weeks. That money in the bank should NOT be burning a hole in the pocket, it is very much needed, quite soon. but Rallyboy you nutjob, we have 10,000 season ticket holders and Parachute Payments to come... Indeed, discounted season tickets that will hit the gate receipts long term, and the PPs are more spoken for than a young Elizabeth Taylor. but the league are watching our every move, they won't allow us to trade insolvently... Yeah, good luck under their watchful eye, they have allowed two entirely predictable administrations to occur so far. I see a pattern emerging...

Does that not tell you that yet again the club is looking for ways to avoid the rules of the FL and your own business plan? Your 3 Amigos know that they need to keep the positive feel going and desperately need you to do well this season,promotion minimum. Therefore they will be desperate to make sure the squad is far too strong not to succeed.

As Vandanel ARE Sondico, so this is no massive surprise. In fact the only shock to me is that Torquay's kit vote for their new Sondico kit (which came around at the end of last season before the Skates had even been taken over) didn't contain that template as an option : Still waiting to see whether the mighty Chelmsford City end up with the same "unique" shirt but in maroon... besides, of course it's bespoke, it's got their badge on it. Other Vandanel 2012/13 teams you may wish to keep a look out for are : Yeovil, Port Vale, Annan Athletic, Gillingham, Gateshead, Drogheda, Rhyl, and Bishop's Stortford. Quick bit of research : Drogheda are now wearing Nike, and Gillingham's kits aren't the same style. Edited 22 July, 2013 by The9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
