JackFrost Posted 13 February, 2014 Share Posted 13 February, 2014 This morning I had the pleasure of reading this write up of the Pompey 0-1 Torquay game in the Portsmouth University newspaper. http://www.galleonnews.com/2014/02/portsmouth-0-torquay-1-portsmouth-come-up-short-in-relegation-battle-against-torquay/ I did wonder if "Jayden Stockely" and "Ben Chorely" were players they'd signed in the last couple of days, but the funniest bit I thought was near the end "Boss rang out around Fratton Park at the final whistle, with Pompey now only three points above the relegation zone having played a game more than many of their relegation rivals" No that isn't a typo, we all know they never boo their own players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Jim Posted 14 February, 2014 Share Posted 14 February, 2014 for St Mary's to have been more than a 1/5 empty the attendance would need to have been less than 26'071, which it wasn't.

I am a shareholder and part owner and not been consulted once. Did I want Barker? No, I wanted the Oxford bloke , was I consulted ? Was I consulted about the recruitment of players? No I wasn't. £450k from HNW.s , diluting my shareholding, was I consulted? To my knowledge I have had just as.much input now than I had in the last 10.years. if we are relegated, my share is being sold. 9 places above Salisbury FFS They still think they can sell their shares, Well in fairness he may get 4p in the pound for it. This is the guy that has worked on all the plans....I think he is a director; So it looks like a car park and whatever is left behind the Milton road (I have no idea).... The longer term aspiration of the club is to have a capacity of at least 300 to make it a viable sKrill Prem outfit. ...... Corrected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallyboy Posted 14 February, 2014 Share Posted 14 February, 2014 Latest spin - The national press have pointed out the average home Pompey attendances this season – as the club founder at the bottom of League Two – show where loyalty lies in Hampshire. And former players still line up to wax lyrical about the Blues supporters being the best in the business – Asmir Begovic and Paul Merson being two of the most recent to do so. But look a little closer and it’s clear the Fratton faithful are facing the biggest challenge to their standing as English football’s most fervent fans. Putting aside the spelling mistake, the forced quotes from template journalism, the inaccuracies, and the hint that they tipped off the nationals with false figures, this piece does look a bit needy and (I don't know if it's been mentioned before) delusional. It's nice to see they have downgraded themselves from best in the world to best in England, but I still think that there are maybe 40 clubs that would challenge their fantasy claim. Just stop, it was funny, now it's undignified! People are just laughing at you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chopper71 Posted 14 February, 2014 Share Posted 14 February, 2014 Meanwhile a club genuinely owned by their fans is agreeing to sell, but the fans will continue to own the ground. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/26186275 Interesting that these guys have 'dramatically improved the finances' and I suspect have done that without 1 mile sponsored bike rides, raiding kids piggy banks etc. Wish the BBC would stop calling the blue phew fan owned though - they can claim that if they ever manage to have assets in excess of their debts (i.e. never!)

holepuncture Posted 14 February, 2014 Share Posted 14 February, 2014 Why did all 3 of them go? I mean, really why? To their employer I imagine that will rightly look like a total waste of wages and resources. They have managed to demonstrate to their employer, via video published online in the public domain, that (at least) two of those three are not gainfully employed in any way, they are simply on the take, blagging their way into press boxes, having a jolly on other peoples money! Amatuer! Mind you, it is mostly nutjobs clicking through to these links, just to have a laugh at #factless and the gang, so perhaps this wonderful piece is for purely for our entertainment.

On the other hand, who would walk away from so much coffee on so many keyboards and lols enough to keep us going to their next admin and beyond.
