stev2001 Posted 28 April, 2012 Share Posted 28 April, 2012 By selling Pearce and Halford, does that mean they last longer than 2nd June? I hope so, then they sell all their assets to keep themselves alive. Finally they will own nothing and still have huge debt, then liquidation.

pedg Posted 28 April, 2012 Share Posted 28 April, 2012 By selling Pearce and Halford, does that mean they last longer than 2nd June? The only way they will last past the 2nd of June if is someone buys them. Selling a couple of players is not going to allow them to stand up at the meeting and promise they will be able to for-fill their fixtures for next year.

eurosaint Posted 28 April, 2012 Share Posted 28 April, 2012 Dream scenario for me now is that they flog everyone, Chinny comes back to strip the carcass, they get a 17 point deduction and go down to league 2 ! Liquidation would mean the end of this thread and leave us nobody to take the p.iss out of ! Maybe I'm being too kind Though ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorgiesaint Posted 28 April, 2012 Share Posted 28 April, 2012 Does Chinny have the time to strip the carcass? Henderson's already gone, deals agreed for Halford and Pearce already. Who exactly is going to be left by the time Chinny gets round to owning the club - other than Kanu as he can't run away as quickly as the others? Seems more like TB is striping the assets before liquidation... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems more like TB is striping the assets before liquidation... Exactly. Chinney is a bit of annoyance to TB. So sell as much as possible and come June 2nd admit to the FL that you can't complete next years fixtures. The golden share is then withdrawn and Chinney can 'not let the club go into liquidation', but there'll be nothing left for him to asset strip. Might even be that the Prem and FL retain the parachute payments against football debt and Chinney gets the ground and sweet f*ck all else.

Kingsland Red Posted 29 April, 2012 Share Posted 29 April, 2012 The big difference, and something I begrudgingly respect Lowe for is that the debt was to a monolith - Aviva and not vast numbers of local businesses. Down the road the debt includes local businesses and charities that would be the support on the 'terraces' - ie. biting the hand that feeds.

Crab Lungs Posted 29 April, 2012 Share Posted 29 April, 2012 (edited) Ladies and Gents, you're going to enjoy this picture immensely; (keep scrolling, it's worth it) (a little excerpt from PO) That says what a lot about the group of players we had here, They get PFC and the fans. As a group of fans we are unique who else would sing about their chairman (in a possitive way) who would sing louder than the home fans after going a goal down? You cant buy that support and I bet evry chairman, manager and player wish their fans were half as good as ours.

rallyboy Posted 29 April, 2012 Share Posted 29 April, 2012 they really picked the wrong day to get on the pitch for a show of strength! As we both exit the division in different directions, us to try and consolidate a future at the top table, them to try and find enough money to complete the week, perhaps a ceasefire could be called? Even I feel a bit guilty about ripping into them this weekend, it would be cruel, like punching a blind tramp - dignity is a fine trait in a victor. That said....I still see rubbish being spouted... I might respect a ceasefire on the more acidic posts, all those gags about stadiums with jockey wheels, sister-bothering, money-laundering, extra digits, prostitutes, undersea fantasy worlds, Riquelme etc. I might, if I didn't keep on seeing bizarre self-promotion about the best fans in the world and the following.... Lawrence was going to fire Cardiff above us and feck our season. Henderson joined the 'champions' West Ham. Huskellop was going to launch Birmingham's challenge to knock us off our perch. Norris scored the goal that would deny us promotion. Hilariously, ALL of this turned out to be the usual deluded b0ll0x!! So I'm considering a fragile ceasefire.....which could collapse with the first mention of a mythical dock strike. And to the eternal question.... Their nearest rivals were 50 places below them not long ago, they have now been promoted as pompey have been relegated. The scummers even had six points they didn't need and gave them to Bristol City. The rivals are off to The Emirates and Old Trafford, pompey might not even make it to play Crawley Town. Their last game even featured ex-Saint Dexter sending them on their way to the backwaters, the last ten months could barely have been worse for them. So, have they got away with it? They can put on a brave and cross-eyed face, but looking at the facts of their nightmare season, I think the answer must be a resounding NO. Justice is finally being served.

Sheaf Saint Posted 29 April, 2012 Share Posted 29 April, 2012 So, have they got away with it? In the truest sense, yes they have. The paltry punishments they have received from the football authorities do not fit for the crimes. It's like giving a murderer community service because although everybody knows he desereves more, it's all the regulations will allow. Legally the punishment is applicable, but morally? Not even close. However, lets just consider the best case scenario for them: that they manage to make it through the summer without being liquidated and start the season in L1 on zero points. All of the senior players will have left meaning they will be starting with a makeshift squad of youth players, free transfers and loanees, and that really worked out well for them this season didn't it. They will struggle and may even be looking at consecutive relegations. It's obvious that whatever happens the creditors are never going to see what they are owed, so if this is what the future holds for them I will be satisfied that justice has been served.

aintforever Posted 29 April, 2012 Share Posted 29 April, 2012 The way I see it there is now only two likely outcomes. 1. Liquidation 2. Chanrai takes ownership again Either way they are f*cked. If Chanrai buys them he wont invest a penny and will just keep them alive long enough to get what's left of the parachutes. The few will no doubt boycott, there will probably be another points penalty so another relegation will very much be a possibility. Liquidation could be a better option long term.
