Total Transfers In £47.8m

Offsetting that is £12.6m of transfers out, mainly Oxlade-Chamberlain.

 

And 60 million income from TV.

 

The ticket tax & car park fees paid the salaries FFS

They mean 40 of the 1330 surely. This is how Ports myths start, in a few weeks time some skate goons will be quoting that as evidence of them being the bestest.

 

 

I'm not so sure, I think they teach it ;o)

Good morning nutjobbers! I wonder what belly full of laughs our friends will provide today!

 

The Trust's takeover is "ready to go" so should be a pretty run of the mill week....

Posted

What are the chances of another court case delay? Or might they actually meet to set an actual, real date for the actual, real hearing? ...in about mid-March?

 

I can hardly contain my excitement.

Posted

the Trust are in a really strong position now - they have exclusivity, they have all of their funding in place, so this deal should be complete by Wednesday.

 

We'd better book a venue for the Nutjob Thread-Closure event.

I could do this Friday but I'm not about Saturday.

"Ready to go" is so last-week. "Where has it gone?" is much more this-week.

Adam Reed believes Pompey are heading in the right direction after getting a taste of the club’s fanatical support.

 

 

The on-loan Sunderland midfielder turned in one of his best displays in his short spell at Fratton Park during the 2-0 loss at Bournemouth.

 

And he pointed to a moment in the game when he understood the difference the vocal backing from the travelling Pompey fans can make to a player.

 

Reed explained: ‘I’m enjoying it down here.

 

‘You see how much this club means to the fans here. I went into a tackle over near them and they all roared for me.

 

‘I tackled their lad quite hard and he had a little whinge, so our fans started getting on his back a bit.

 

‘But when you get that kind of support it gives you that little extra boost.

 

‘It really helps you to keep going for the 90 minutes and I want to do my best to help this club get a few results.

@solentsport: #pompey boss Guy Whittingham may promote another player from the youth team rather than sign a replacement for departing Frankie Sutherland

 

Only 3 years too late...

" Promote " ??? ........... I expect the poor little sod is crying his eyes out already ......." after all my hard work, what a way to end what I had hoped would have been a career in football " .. he sobbed uncontrollably

Where will I find my daily dose of laughter and schadenfreude when its gone?

The Pope is resigning at the end of the month. There is no truth in the rumour that he intends to buy PFC.

No but he'll be a free agent and they could do with bolstering their squad. Maybe he could "coach" the youth team, I've heard these religious types are good at that?

AFC Pompey Takover Saga?

 

I nearly had a "coffee & keyboard" moment there (actually, it was a cup of tea to be honest). Jimmy_D: I salute you :toppa:

Credit to Hall for striking whilst the iron is hot this time around....

"Surely a better use of a spare £3m would be to buy Fratton Park - which is what the PST bid proposes - rather than spending out unnecessary money on renting a stadium which can be owned from Day One?"

Err, that is of course if the stadium is only valued at £3m, which strikes me as at least 50% under the market rate.

From that article:

 

'Surely a better use of a spare £3m would be to buy Fratton Park - which is what the PST bid proposes - rather than spending out unnecessary money on renting a stadium which can be owned from Day One?'

Just one possible little problem with that statement Micah, what if a judge were to say that FP is worth more than 3m? I guess we will find out soon...........

 

Edit: damn, beaten to it........ great minds and all that, Joe.......

Steven Davis (Rangers) £900m? Pricey

 

Rodriguez figure seems to go up every week, but nothing compared to Chaplow's fee, which must have been paid with a Wonga loan. It was £50k when it started.

and if only the trust actually had the £3 million.

'So on the day Harris was announcing he was our Fairy Godmother and that we should go to the ball, his company was going under, owing £3m to the mysterious Gorbunenko and £1m to the taxpayer'

 

Bit cheeky highlighting that as a stick to beat him with.

 

How much did pompey owe the taxpayer in their last 2 administrations? £60m?

I would suggest that HMRC offerd no evidence if the hearing lasted less than a minute. I would speculate that the payment was made late, after the petition had been issued.

 

 

This is probably true and Notts County not likely to admit same.

 

In reality they did not pay when they should have done after repeated requests.

 

Pompey would never do such a thing...........they just would not pay.:rolleyes:

Pompey bigger than Southampton shock:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_metropolitan_areas_in_the_United_Kingdom

 

 

Portsmouth/Southampton metropolitan area 1,547,000 Portsmouth (500,000), Southampton (376,000), Bognor Regis (66,000), Salisbury (29,000), Winchester (27,000), Andover (26,000)

 

If we can get Bognor on side, we'll be bigger than Pompey!

 

It just depends on the definition of the respective "urban areas". Portsmouth includes Havant, Waterlooville, lee on solent etc. Southampton doesnt contain Totton, Romsey, Winchester, Waterside etc. In fact Southampton "greater urban area" only consists of Southampton, Eastleigh and Bishopstoke. Portsmouth urban area population is 442,252.

If Lee on the Solent is included then surely Gosport should be.

Surprised to see Hartlepool as big as 10/11 for Tuesday's game. Not much has changed since they beat them 1-3 at Fratton a couple of weeks ago has it? Tempting to combine the pleasure of them going bottom with a nice payout.

So, from 376000 we can "pack the park" with 31000 plus

 

Whilst Skatesville, from 442242 can "Pack Their Park" with 10000 Bestest

 

No wonder they are MASSIVE ................. or do I mean PASSIVE ???

Why would anybody trust Wikipedia for something like this? As you rightly point out, it is ridiculous including somewhere as far away from Portsmouth as Havant, with its massive Leigh Park council estate and not including places that are closer than that near Southampton. Ditto, if Gosport and Lee on Solent are included, which are across the water from Portsmouth, then why not the waterside areas too? Where does Portsmouth end towards us and Southampton start? Fareham? Titchfield? Locks Heath? Bursledon?

 

In any event, these figures are over a decade out of date.

I would say these areas are ours as well (give or take one or two I don't know about).

I couldn't believe what I saw yesterday, as soon as Bournemouth scored the first goal loads of drunken Pompey fans run down the bottom pushing over children and people in wheelchairs trying to get at the Bournemouth fans.

 

Sadly, after reading Twitter yesterday after the game it does seem that it did happen. One of the "twitterers" had photos of what happened and has forwarded them to the

Relevant authorities

 

ah, usual 'banter' then
