Danish Saint Posted 3 May, 2011 Share Posted 3 May, 2011 Interesting report about SAAB today. The future looks saved as the owners of SAAB, Spyker (owned by the Russians interested in Pompey) have secured a short-term loan of 30 mill euros. Production in Sweden is set to resume after three weeks of non-production after suppliers couldn't be payed. At the same time SAAB is set for a partnership with Chinese manufacturer Hawtai Group and is set to start another production line in China. SAAB has also applied for a loan of 29 mill Euros at the EU Investment Bank - not yet granted.

Yes Steve, let's ignore the facts shall we - 13th in the average attendance league and 30 points adrift despite choosing to outbid teams at the top of the table with your cunningly suicidal recruitment policy. Yet another new version of history for the deluded few to suffer. Is it wrong to feel sorry for some of them having to put up with this while we celebrate our own season? Or shall I just remind myself of the arrogant rubbish we have had to put up with from a criminally-run, insolvently-trading, money-laundering operation, supported by a handful of caravan-tugging, sister-bothering, lucky heather sellers? If QPR get hit hard pompey could be in a bit of trouble - it's really not a good time to be in court. Cue bleats about it's not us, it was other owners, we didn't mean to cheat etc. I believe we will resume our place above them in four months time.

"Lampitt keen to end 'critical' Portsmouth takeover saga" Its not only Matt Fletcher that is following us, and I may be reading too much into the title but that to me suggests we are the leading authority on the pompey scandal and we are the number one information portal for the media to collate the latest series of emabarrasing skate soundbites. If the beeb hacks need to know the score, the saintsweb pompey takeover saga thread is the first port of call. Hi guys! We will not stop until the skates have been brought to justice. Its difficult for us on here sometimes, as we feel they might get away with it, and in reality, so far they have... big time. But we keep the faith, we will keep discussing the in's and outs of their criminality and we will see them exposed for the diseased entity that they patently are. were coming to avenge the criminality that took place at St.Marys and we want to put these skates back to their rightful position... So, to keep the keen journos up to date: http://fansonline.net/portsmouth/article.php?id=1774 So Daddy has won his appeal against his 6yr convicton (in absentia) for gun running. The article suggests that his gun running has been judged as 'uncontestable' - which means he had no choice to supply all of those many hundreds of thousands of land mines! So, he was a gun runner with a gun to his head. so confident he didnt turn up to trial, and went on the run in russia, and has bought some bungled appeal, which states he did supply the arms... he has also been done for tax evasion, fined £300k and still convicted to three years - hardly an out and out victory there daddy! you sound as guilty as hell you corrupt murderous ****... I wonder whether he has ever supplied guns to Vlad Antonov and the Russian mafia?... quite plausible, seeing as he is buying refuge in un-exileable russia, as he hides from half of the developed world. And one for the takeover saga purists: http://fansonline.net/portsmouth/mb/view.php?id=346195 A nice little thread of discontent to give you a little chuckle (or just a smirk in your head) about the hard up skates turning their back on their club.

OldNick Posted 3 May, 2011 Share Posted 3 May, 2011 'Seeing Norwich fans celebrating last night I had a feeling of 'done that' - will they have 5 trips to Wembley in 2 years, finish 8th and 9th in successive seasons, win the FA Cup, compete in the UEFA Cup group stage?' A Pompey fan on their site This sums up exactly what i have felt all along. It doesn't matter what sanctions the club gets their 'long suffering fans 'Tm have the memories forever.This generation of pompey fans had experiences that 88 clubs fans would give their right arm for. They dont have any shame how they got those memories but just sup it all up. Who were right, the former owners of SFC who tried to do things by the book or the Pompey way.

Torres Posted 3 May, 2011 Share Posted 3 May, 2011 Considering that "with a little bit of help and a few players [automatic promotion] might have been us this year" you really have to say that an average home attendance on 15707 is quite, well, crap. Hell, even when we had to play the likes of Jamie White, Jake Thompson and anyone else we could afford and ended up relegated bottom we still averaged 17849 at home. By my reckoning, that figure also puts "the best fans in the world" 13th overall in the Championship this year. MASSIVE FANBASE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have I heard that statement before, like last season, different CEO! Yes, but they HAVE to provide the Football Authorities with their business plan for next year in order to be able to play. Also, they have a CVA, and yet as they haven't paid anything from that yet will that information be in the business plan as well? So they have to agree the takeover with people who do not trust a word the club management say and who are in the process of buying a major Interntaional Corporation (Saab) and who have been on the lash with Eddie Mitchell Now I wasn't a Uni Maths graduate, only did an old A-Level, so unfortunately, I still cannot make all of that add up Oh and Matt?

Among those watching was Deepak Chainrai occupying the directors’ box for the second match running, while former administrator Andrew Andronikou was also present. So the Android has joined the few as a new fan. Either that, or he is ready to get employed again for yet another administration once Chinny pulls the plug.
