Wes Tender Posted 25 November, 2011 Share Posted 25 November, 2011 Apart from The News not knowing which is Pearson and which is his assistant, comments from the Skates following their article on the forthcoming Leicester match confirm that the few are as delusioned as ever. hugo Friday, November 25, 2011 at 09:03 AM I am really fed up with all the carp about Antonov, CSI's other directors have stated that his troubles will have no effect whatsoever on Portsmouth Football Club....why is this not good enough for some people.....time to stop speculating about something we know very little about ....at this moment in time Rob in Suffolk Friday, November 25, 2011 at 08:44 AM Lottery winners aside, is there such a thing as a multi millionairre or billionaire who is NOT corrupt? Particularly a young one. I really am fed up with this saga. So Hugo, you carry on believing that the arrest and probable imprisonment of the main shareholder of the group who own your poxy club will mean that nothing changes. Naive or just plain thick? And yes, Rob in Suffolk. There is such as thing as a billionaire who is not corrupt. And you don't need to look far along the M27 to find an example either.

Goalie66 Posted 25 November, 2011 Share Posted 25 November, 2011 Ok, to clarify, if were soon going to be on the Market again as part of some sort of Lithuanian government asset recovery sale, we just want someone straight to come in. If it means an owner with no real money to spend on ground and the team so be it- were just sick of being pawns in someone else's game of monopoly- and right now it feels like we've landed on Mayfair with a hotel on it and it's not ours...

OldNick Posted 25 November, 2011 Share Posted 25 November, 2011 I think a fans consortium or an enthusiastic but not necessarily megabucks individual is the best we can hope for really. If the worst comes to the worst we'll survive in some reduced form or another, and gradually work our way back up. It's too big a club to just be left to die. We'll be ok... Lol too BIG a club to die. You are a small provincial club that has had some recent success on the back of bad debt and perhaps corruption. If you were a big club you would have the fanbase to show it in bad times.For decades you were wallowing around the lower leagues, only after your club took on wages and exes that you could not sustain did you float to the surface again. I do not say Saints are a big club, but have the fanbase and foundations from being established in the top league for decades, we are the bigger club with probably a larger fanbase due to our high profile for longer period of time.Neither can ever be classed as a big club IMO. Of course if we do go up to the PL and then florish and get a larger stadia that is filled my attitude may change on who is a big club. I believe your chance of being seen as a big club went when you ere on a crest of a wave and it looked like you may get a big stadium. Had you stayed up, had a new stadium and kept the team of world stars you would have been a big club, bigger than us, as you would have filled it and got a new influx of fans who are not as ingrained to either club as the diehards. If you do ever get an Afcp Iwould wish you well, but I doubt it would attain a high league status. Therefore you are stuffed if Chanrai does pull the plug, I have always said you will get away with it, but it is looking decidedly difficult if your owners are indeed financing the club. If Chanrai has to come back he will at least now have a club that is not leaking as much money and so he may bear that cost until the parchute money has been eaten up (Iassume you still have some to come) If you form Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where's OldNick? Just hypothetically, of course, but what if Chainrai was quite a clever businessmen, and had set up an arrangement so that he has registered charges over the club and it's assets such that he would get what's left (if anything) of the parachutes anyway if the club was liquidated?

Ken Tone Posted 25 November, 2011 Share Posted 25 November, 2011 Someone on one of our boards yesterday posted that he's so sick of lurching from one disaster to another he'd take demotion to the Conference or lower just to wipe the slate clean and start afresh. Difficult to disagree with him. Like I've said all along, the club itself will probably be ok, but if it isn't there are plenty of us who right now would almost welcome implosion followed by renewal. F*ck it, if AFC Wimbledon can come back from the dead, anyone can.... Blimey! I'm actually starting to feel a bit sorry for some of the blue few. It all goes back to Mandaric letting Redknapp overspend then selling you down the river to whoever he could find to give him some of his money back really doesn't it? But you do have an alternative to waiting for yet another dodgy owner to come along and/or slow death. Why not start an 'FC of Portsmouth', like some disenchanted Man U fans did http://www.fc-utd.co.uk/home.php ? You could play at Havant's ground and try to work slowly back up the leagues.
