So is that right that on the 10th season ticket holders will be allowed a 2nd ticket??
-
I'm involved in another sport that means I cant make most of the season and a friend get's mine when I can make it so not on DB. If anyone has a spare, or can get a spare can you mail me on darrenyearsley@hotmail.com I am a friend of Ponty (for my sins) and he can vouch that I AM a Saints fan and my reasons for only making some games

Breaking news on GMTV (no I'm not a single mum, I'm working from home today): Portsmouth have been sold again to HK businessman (Chanrai). 4th owner in 8 months
-
Now you mention it I'll have to check. I work a lot of weekends so I usually tell me mate who lives across the road if I can go and he nips across and gets if for me to save a trip into town. I then meet him in the pub, give him the cash and bob's your uncle lol
-
As my mate always gets my ticket for me as he is near the ground I'm looking pretty f**ked for getting in so all day in the pub for me.......

Shouldn't be too hard to find. There are only 2 bookshops in Petersfield (And I was asked not to put a link up) but one has a cheap tacky site (are you following me here???). And all of this talk of him having a bookshop, well he doesn't. He works in his MUM'S bookshop lol. "Today, it is a family business, with wife Ann and sons David and John also being partners":D

OK I'll do it. How many sold for Ipswich
darren1 replied to brianoneils slidingtackle's topic in The Saints
The Blue few only managed 10,000. No wonder they're skint, even during our dark days we had more than that!! -
Is it the Station, on the corner of Bullar Road?? Drove past and they had a sign up saying it was on there
-
Am I right in thinking that there will be further difficulties if they go into admin?? From my recollection of when we were in Admin, was it not mentioned that HMRC NEVER take a cut on what they are owed and insist on FULL payment being covered on any sale of company or assets? This would mean PFC would need to be sold for a minimum of £11M just to cover HMRC and before any others get their cut even though they have no assets. If this is right (and I stand to be corrected), who in their right mind would buy the club? If this is the case there is a serious threat of there being no Po*****uth Football club by March????.............

What hotel are you at??

The point I was trying to make is we had money before and dropped like a stone and I feel even when we had none we could have done better. Now we do have some, but it takes more than just money to do well and our position is not just down to money. This is not just about football this is life in general. We could have all the money in the world, but if people are making a pigs ear of things and the fans are not behind the team with a s**t manager and divided board we would still not do well. Some clubs can short term buy success like our friends down the road, but there is a difference betwenn the money making the difference and the "package" being the difference. IMO we have the package, and are not just buying our way up the league
-
No, not the main reason. Yes it has helped, but the attitude of the staff and supporters has IMO played a bigger part in this. We now have a PROPER manager who has put belief in the team. Whether of not AP could have done this with last years team will never be known, but look at the difference in Lallana this year. He has gone from dire to one of the stars of the team. As well as bringing in a couple of new faces that we have paid for, you cannot ignore how some already here have turned themselves around. IMO the biggest factor of change has come from people like AP, Lallana being the player we thought he could be etc, although financial stability will always help. But there is a difference in commenting between stability, and throwing around cash, which I do not believe we have done to a massive degree
-
I personally don't agree. What have we actually spent so far in terms of hard cash? Yes we bought Lambert etc but we would still be climbing the table relying on other players goals. In all fairness I think the main turnaround has come from confidence that we can turn things around, the hard work of AP and NC and the security from ML, this along with more fans coming through the gates with a positive attitude (I don't think most appreciate how the positive or negative attitude of the fans can affect the mind of the players) have all contributed. In previous years and including last year the players would have rolled over faced with a fight, but this team has made some great fightbacks and the belief that we will not give in and CAN and will fight to the end is something that has spread through the whole club. Money cannot buy that!

Well, any excuse not to be working I used the scientific method of opening microsoft paint and putting a black dot over each person (it was actually quite a pleasure!) and I came to the grand total of 223 (But I may have got some stewards in there)
-
We are the 3rd tier whipping boys and if not careful the 4th team on the South coast. I dont want Pardew out, but I'm getting bloody nervous and cant see this going on for much longer!
-
So let us get this CLEAR now........... If they go into admin this season, but also get relegated (both could be likely), they will start next season with -10?? :-D This time next year we could be in front of them in the league?? :-)
-
Hopefully I'll be seeing a nice beaver tonight, I'll see what I can do.......
-
Dont know about Wise, but I was given similar information at the weekend. It could be a rumour starting to gain pace or.........
-
I also think the new Manager cannot sign for a period from leaving his last club.....
-
You bas**rd Ponty. Dont you take the credit for that!!!!
-
I gotta say I would be VERY nervous if I were you and if I'm honest have no sympathy whatsoever. I would however say that I do hope you club does not go out of business. But for it to be this drawn out does smack a bit of a Pinnicle. I do honestly hope I'm wrong.......
