St Jim Posted 13 May, 2011 Share Posted 13 May, 2011 Not as funny though as in your relegation year, mainstream news reports about your Administration, live SSN reports outside the high court, Stan Collymore's 30 minute Talksport rant about your charity rip offs and unpaid local businessman invoices, how etc, etc. Oh how we all laughed! PS - I hear Terry the builder is about to go bust after a Farton Park Extension? Not to mention the cherry on top of the nicely iced cake - the Boateng penalty miss in the cup final.

Channon's Sideburns Posted 13 May, 2011 Share Posted 13 May, 2011 It's the continual feed on 'Pompey's Plans for 2011/12' in the Snooze that makes me laugh...pure propaganda designed to convince the few that their future has a bit of a rosy tinge to it. Reminds me of the two old professors on the Mary Whitehouse Experience..... 'See that player over there who can't get a game anywhere else? That's your top summer signing that is....'

Gingeletiss Posted 13 May, 2011 Share Posted 13 May, 2011 If it gets overturned, would this be applicable to Pompey's administration or have they got away with it and it only applicable to Plymouth and future cases? I thought HMRC left some wriggle room, with an appeal if they wanted to, if so, they are waiting for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rallyboy Posted 13 May, 2011 Share Posted 13 May, 2011 Pompey are to join a ground-breaking scheme offering young talents the chance to make a name for themselves in the futsal world. The Blues are to give aspiring players the opportunity to join their all-new futsal and education scholarship. The Blues are one of eight sides in the south chosen to compete in the league alongside Exeter, Bristol City, Plymouth, Cardiff, Bristol Rovers, Cheltenham and Reading. Former Blues favourite Paul Hardyman, now head of sports and coaching at the Pompey Sports & Education Foundation, believes it is an exciting development for the club. ‘We’re delighted we’ve been chosen to be involved and it’s a bonus we were picked above Southampton as well! Yes Mr Hardyman of course you were picked above Southampton, because you are so special! - alongside those other galactico-producing, coaching giants Cheltenham, Plymouth and Exeter - Wenger is always down at Cheltenham keeping an eye on his next target, trying to make sure Liverpool don't beat him to it. Nicola has missed a trick there, I bet he wishes we had an after school club too rather than an internationally-respected academy. Just more spin for the few to lap up.

tony13579 Posted 13 May, 2011 Share Posted 13 May, 2011 more news.. Fri, 13 May 12:57:25 2011 ShareretweetEmailPrintMichael Brown and Richard Hughes head a 10-strong list of out-of-contract players who have all been released by Portsmouth. Brown, formerly of Sheffield United, Tottenham, Fulham and Wigan, has not played for Pompey since Boxing Day due to a clause in his contract which would have triggered a new deal, crucially, on wages the club could not afford had he made one more appearance. Fellow midfielder Hughes has also been let go due to a similar clause which prevented manager Steve Cotterill from playing him in another game for the Championship club, with his final appearance also coming in late December. Talks broke down between the pair and Portsmouth in January when a financial compromise was unable to be reached despite the club`s desire to keep them on board. Both players now leave Fratton Park on free transfers. Brown and Hughes are joined in their release by goalkeeper Darryl Flahavan, striker Danny Webber and youngsters Marlon Pack, Pete Gregory, Tom Kilbey, Perry Ryan, Ellis Martin and Billy Goddard" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crab Lungs Posted 13 May, 2011 Share Posted 13 May, 2011 (edited) http://www.newsnow.co.uk/A/494151739?-11209 Massive LOL at how "picky" they are about players. "Oh, he's not good enough" attitude, hypothesising about bringing in more 'quality' players that other clubs could seldom afford and an amusing line about how they'd even accept Marlon King at Fratton (but the author does emphasise that he wouldn't like to see him in a Pompey shirt... yeah right). Nothing ceases to surprise me with that disgusting lot. Edited 13 May, 2011 by Crab Lungs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallyboy Posted 13 May, 2011 Share Posted 13 May, 2011 Don't knock Marlon King, everyone deserves a 14th chance. Who releases every player they can - unless it is purely about cost-cutting? The spin says please buy season tickets because we have new owners, while the facts suggest there is still a massive financial problem that needs addressing now. While the few sink and the red tide rises, let's hope Mack doesn't see Cortese's master plan as quoted by our new scout supremo - it has everything that Corp Ho claimed was going to happen to them - apart from the Harbourdome, Maradona and Eto obviously! I won't get too excited about the Champions League just yet! Let's get out of the championship first, and that's not going to be as easy as some people think. WARNING - do your own punchlines gag appraching - If they hang onto Cotterill I still reckon pompey can get out of this division before we can.

Dark Munster Posted 13 May, 2011 Share Posted 13 May, 2011 From the Guardian last week - http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2011/may/06/fa-faw-cardiff-swansea The taxman cometh The football creditors' rule could be overturned as soon as November after a high court hearing on Thursday into the Plymouth Argyle insolvency led to HM Revenue & Customs challenging it again. The controversial rule, which protects footballers and other clubs at the expense of other unsecured creditors, has long been a bugbear for the taxman. HMRC has lost tens of millions of pounds in football insolvencies since losing its preferential-creditor status in 2003. But, whereas Sir George Anthony Mann announced as the judge in the Portsmouth insolvency case last August that he was not equipped to rule on the football creditors' rule without a separate case to examine it, Sir Guy Newey decided he would. In the meantime there has been a football-governance inquiry by a parliamentary select committee at which even senior football figures such as Manchester United's chief executive, David Gill, have declared the rule indefensible. The new case is scheduled for 28 November – the privileged protections for millionaire footballers over insolvent clubs' local-community suppliers are not likely to survive. Shame they can't make this retroactive and hammer the Cheats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rallyboy Posted 14 May, 2011 Share Posted 14 May, 2011 he has two years to go, that amounts to costing the business about £5M - or half of their entire wages budget if the club was run sensibly. He can't get those crazy wages anywhere else so presumably they'll have to find £2M to pay him off - that's if someone takes him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why are you blaming the players? It isn't their fault the club offered them the deals they did. Should they have said "No, I'm not worth that much per week, give me less on a shorter contract"?

Was that a borderline racist attack on one of your own players, disguised only by the fact that you got your pet chimp to google translate it from Skate into semi-English? Though it's always nice to see the rarely spotted quadruple consecutive comma formation. So we like that you come on here with generally realistic banter but we're worried about your state of mind - it all looks a bit frenzied...in future calm down before you punch the keyboard.
