St Jim Posted 3 February, 2012 Share Posted 3 February, 2012 i think this is a very important point and should be given some consideration. Saints fans had to pay for match and coach ticket to skates away game, but we obviously paid Southampton Football Club who in turn would have paid the coach company and Portsmouth football club. For the fixture at st marys who is going to check what Pompey do with the money? will the bus company be happy supplying without upfront payment? and what will saints do to ensure we get paid? I think more importantly it's a case of whether the fixture will occur in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingsland Red Posted 3 February, 2012 Share Posted 3 February, 2012 Bishops Printers of Fratton do the programmes. I am sure that as former club sponsors/directors, they would honour the Skates contract. What I struggle with is their advertisement at the Chapel end.

Clapham Saint Posted 3 February, 2012 Share Posted 3 February, 2012 Are they serious? Any Saints fans who went in colours would be treated to a good kicking and would likely be arrested for incitement. I'll turn up for their first phoenix.game in Saints colours to show my support to rebuilding an honest rivalry as quickly as possible. As would I. Turning up to help in keeping the current crooks running though? Not a hope in hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clapham Saint Posted 3 February, 2012 Share Posted 3 February, 2012 A. The Operators failed to understand the true meaning of the debenture note (see the definition below). A. In the UK, the debenture holder is the ultimate owner, while anyone else is either an unsecured creditor, operator, tenant, lessee, borrower or administrator. Q. If Portpin is the ultimate owner, how was it that the Operators were able to run the club? A. The Operators executed a private agreement with Portpin to operate the club. However, as soon as the Operators failed to pay the monthly fees to Portpin, they were evicted. Q. Does this mean that Portpin misled the Operators? A. Absolutely not, but one assumes that the Operators received bad advice. Much much lolage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hockey_saint Posted 3 February, 2012 Share Posted 3 February, 2012 I reckon someone should mention this to Pahars in Riga via twitter as I'm sure the good people of Latvia would be very happy to hear the Portsmouth North MP effectively suggesting to the PM he support a club associated with stealing their pension money.

Rational Rich Posted 3 February, 2012 Share Posted 3 February, 2012 Here's an idea. They are NOT insolvent. They HAVE assets, it is their cash flow that is screwed. So the value of their players probably currently outweighs the amount of their debts, however under the rules in which they "participate" they currently have a situation (of their own making) where they cannot sell their assets to fund their debts. Legally that is a wriggle room opportunity, has anyone tested the Transfer Window in a case under UK Company Law before? poopey will have plenty of advisors, we know that admin is pretty much a no-go as there is not enough cash flow to cover their running costs let alone admin fees. It all comes down to the players. Sell some they survive. But the rules say they cannot... It's all about buying time By 10 minutes to the court case on the 19th Chinny will accept 3 million in cash to walk away is their obvious gambit. And THEN the FL have problems a plenty Hate to be a boring fart but under English law there are two tests of insolvency, the "balance sheet" test (liabilities exceed assets) and the "cash-flow" test (inability to pay debts as they fall due). So cash-flow does count. Either way I think they're screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallyboy Posted 3 February, 2012 Share Posted 3 February, 2012 naughty Gemmel in failure to read all 1027 pages before posting shock! Despite that bombshell, Cala vocalising his lunacy was funny, and worth a second airing, so fair play to both posters. I have chuckled out loud quite a few times of late, the worse it gets, the funnier the gags on here. The judge in his Saints 125 kit was good, as was AA saying everything is fine - and that photo of a rather odd boyband trio pointing at the camera and demanding their wages from poor people. So much material, so little time left to mock. If I'm ever depressed I shall just think of Harry in his courtroom artist impression, twitching like....well, Harry on a tax charge, and it'll make me smile like Avram in the transfer window, getting the nod from the chairman to splash out on youth. Where's Ho? He's always good for a chuckle. He isn't out tonight socialising (as in every few weeks) with someone plucky and bestest giving him top ITK action is he? - maybe he should ask the well-connected kitman's son, he's bang on the money too! How about all the few just admit that they haven't got a clue what is happening but it does look like the club has been multi-gang-raped by criminals and they were all taken in and now look a little bit silly. And they're all sorry for talking crap for the past ten years. Mmmmm? It would be a start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

''Maybe a franchise system, requiring those who would own a football team to stick to an agreed set of practices or lose control, might save clubs from themselves. At present the tendency is to apply the Billy Bunter principle in matters of finance : the Owl of the Remove was forever expecting a postal order. Either this or hope that the figure shimmering in the heat haze of an Arabian desert is Omar Sharif with oil wells and not merely a mirage.''
