holepuncture Posted 15 May, 2014 Share Posted 15 May, 2014 One now going 'LOL.' Its not me, though I would LOL if they were to be banned. I personally believe that no one gives away their money even for love. However if the presidents get pompey back to the championship and even back to the premiership with better facilities and maybe a better ground, I would not begrudge them making some money out of their investment. Same goes to the pst shareholders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rallyboy Posted 16 May, 2014 Share Posted 16 May, 2014 That's a bit harsh, they did manage nearly a decade before their first financial collapse. I've lost count now, it's approx five serious bouts of insolvency in the history of the three or four football clubs that have formed and folded in the city. At least the new business celebrated a full year without needing to be bailed out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
