anothersaintinsouthsea Posted 11 November, 2011 Share Posted 11 November, 2011 Not too disappointed with Appleton to be honest. His reputation within the game is very good and my fera was that we were going to appoint one the of same, tired old faces like Dowie or Boothroyd. Giving a young guy with a good coaching reputation is an encouraging move. In fact, someone I know who works at Brentford says they approached him in the summer about the managers job and he turned them down because he wanted to manage at a higher level but the rumour was that he was the driving force behind WBA's promotion and effectively carried Di Matteo. Time will tell I guess but not unhappy with the move If anything this gives me a great deal of confidence that he will be a complete flop given that your past record with rumours is so dreadful.

Lord Duckhunter Posted 11 November, 2011 Share Posted 11 November, 2011 "reputation within the game", is a Cliché trotted out in football, when people are wondering who the hell someone is. It is used by fans to show how knowledable they are about the game, and that they are not just supporters but serious football people. How do you aquire this tag of "repuation within the game"? Steve Keen has it, as did Mark Wotte, Wiggley and Stewart Gray. Football is basically an old boys network, so there's always going to be someone saying good things about you. Adkins had 2 promotions from the league we were in at the time, was manging in the league above us, they are totally different appointments and even the most one eyed Skate could see that. When they were talking about Dave Jones, SOD and Steve Coppell they can only be dissapointed with this guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seaempty Posted 11 November, 2011 Share Posted 11 November, 2011 As much as I want to laugh at them for making this appointment, I can't. As pointed out by others, it seems a sensible move, financially, and suggests they are trying to live within their means and build for the future. It's also good to see young coaches given a chance to step up a level. If it wasn't Pompey, I'd wish him well and hope he's a success. But it is, so unfortunately I hope he's an abject failure.

Saint 76er Posted 11 November, 2011 Share Posted 11 November, 2011 Clearly appointed as the cheap option, if the 2k per week rumour is to be believed. Perhaps sensible for them, however as the manager is the most important person at any club, then skimping on that appointment may be just plain mad. Big risk on an untried 35 year old, but will at least be a cheap payout if/when they have to sack him. When that day comes let's hope that Stuart Gray is still waiting in the wings to take over ....

Fair play to giving a young coach a go; time will tell if he's any good or not, but I think it'll either be a complete masterstroke or an utter catastrophe.

buctootim Posted 11 November, 2011 Share Posted 11 November, 2011 tbf their dire situation and infrastructure meant they wouldn't have been able to attract one of many 'once okay but now lost interest and looking for a last payday' managers around. Thats a lucky break for them imo. The guy has a good reputation as a coach and looks scary enough to get a form of respect as manager.

anothersaintinsouthsea Posted 12 November, 2011 Share Posted 12 November, 2011 ****flaps and mandick to stand trial in January http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2011/nov/12/tottenham-harry-redknapp-tax-trial "Redknapp denies any wrongdoing but would have good reason for his mind to be on other matters when Tottenham Hotspur take on the current Premier League leaders, Manchester City, at the Etihad Stadium the day before the proceedings begin. The timing of the trial may interfere with his club's preparations for the Premier League matches against Wigan Athletic and Liverpool, and, should Spurs qualify, the fourth round of the FA Cup on 28 January. Redknapp and Mandaric, the owner of Sheffield Wednesday, both face two counts of cheating the public revenue. Their alleged offences relate to tax payments due while the pair were respectively manager and chairman of Portsmouth. The indictment laid down by prosecutors states: "Mandaric and Redknapp, between 1 April 2002 and 28 November 2007, with intent to defraud and to the prejudice of HM Revenue and Customs, arranged for $145,000, paid by Mandaric as a result of or in connection with Redknapp's employment and as a reward for services, to be transferred to a Monaco bank account opened by Redknapp for that purpose, in order to conceal the said emolument from HM Revenue and Customs and evade the payment of income tax and national insurance contributions thereon (whether by the operation of PAYE by the club or otherwise)." As for count two, the indictment states: "Mandaric and Redknapp between 1 May 2004 and 28 November 2007, with intent to defraud and to the prejudice of HM Revenue and Customs, arranged for $150,000, paid by Mandaric as a result of or in connection with Redknapp's employment and as a reward for services, to be transferred to a Monaco bank account opened by Redknapp for that purpose, in order to conceal the said employment income from HM Revenue and Customs and evade the payment of income tax and national insurance contributions thereon (whether by the operation of PAYE by the club or otherwise)." The pair will fight the charges in a trial scheduled to last two weeks." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC those payments were made by Mandy in his position as owner, as recompense for 'Arry's work. Thus akin to wages / bonus from the club to 'Arry. Therefore it could also be construed as the entity of the football club avoiding taxes....

St Chalet Posted 12 November, 2011 Share Posted 12 November, 2011 As others have noted, if Peter Storrie has fessed up everyone else to save his own arse he will have no worries about dropping the club in it. Up until this point it was widely perceived that they could only face sanctions based on his actions. With full immunity being provided and a prosecution prepped and supported by the HMRC there may be some interesting nuggets to drop out of this, and potentially other cases that may follow. I am not sure whether a 10 pointer this year will have any effect on them, I just hope they get seen by the general football public as the low-rent chancers that they are as opposed to the media's 'plucky Pompey' tag.

IMHO the only real way any new sanctions can be aimed at them would have to come from UEFA or FIFA. They can be seen as having taken the PL punishment and moved on points deduction wise. The ONLY real harm that could come out of the trial would be "Un-Registered Agents" ala Luton. BUT with this being a very specific charge in this specific case, UNLESS 'Arry turns "grass" to save his career (IF he felt he could lose) there really is no way that the English Authorities would see any need. OR if 'Arry has evidence that "misrepresentations" were made to the Authorities about finances, but then what would be the gain for 'Arry, the submissions to court by Storrie were after 'Arrys days. BUT if some of the dodgy deals/agents broke UEFA rules there may be some grumbles.. BUT with the way English Football keeps p1ssing off Blatter, something coming out that is FIFA related - that may be a different kettle of skates. Still think it highly unlikely anything will stick to the few.

I assume the proof that the money came from Mandaric is fairly irrefutable and similarly that the account it was paid into belonged to bagpuss so I assume the only get out is if they can convince the court that the money related to something that is not subject to tax/NI.

I don't read the Grauniad OK what I meant to say was that it doesn't actually mention his "employer" in the indictment. It mentions the owner. My (college level) of law is pretty slim but I know it's pedantics make MLG seem off the cuff, so if they (Club) weren't named as doing it for the purpose of avoiding EMPLOYERS NI then they are highly unlikely to be "tried for it" at this hearing. Employee NI avoidance is onw thing but the club look to have a ready made get out clause.

At its peak, his Eve Lodge stables had housed 97 residents and sent out 34 winners. In 1987 he was jailed for three years, of which he served 366 days for tax fraud. The following year he was stripped of his OBE (which he had been awarded in 1975) because of tax evasion. He resumed his career as a jockey in 1990 following his release from jail, winning the Breeders' Cup Mile on Royal Academy within ten days of his return, and riding another Classic winner, Rodrigo de Triano, in the 1992 2000 Guineas.
