hutch Posted 12 July, 2012 Share Posted 12 July, 2012 Michael Appleton remains hopeful his new first-team coach can be unveiled before the weekend. Westwood, who had a spell as caretaker manager at Kettering last season, had joined Lincoln as a player this summer. The hold up at present, however, is a financial one from Pompey’s side. Now he will focus on coaching – once he is given the green light from the Football League. You sneaky little devils. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really is time for your club to cease to exist, you have embarrassed football enough. Sailor Sam 4:33 PM on 11/07/2012 nigeladminsredwhitearmy. Are you still a member of the Claus Lundekvam fan club? Only your club would have a captain, with team mates, who were involved in spot fixing. It really is time for your club to cease to exist, you have embarrassed football enough. With Pompey, it was the owners that cheated, with you it was both owners and players that cheated. vanman 10:02 PM on 11/07/2012 Sailor Sam, you are not trying to suggest that a few players allegedly fiddling the first throw-in (a claim already being challenged by other players) is worse than not paying tax, stealing charity money, not paying staff, cheating local businesses, making illegal payments, tax evasion, non adherence to cva..and so on and so on...lets pick our battles better than that!!... Sailor Sam 10:55 PM on 11/07/2012 vanman. Read what I wrote. I said that it was the owners of PFC that were the cheats, not the players. With Southampton FC it was the players that cheated on the field of play and it was the owners that cheated by having a stadium built that they could not pay for.

brightspark Posted 12 July, 2012 Share Posted 12 July, 2012 Birch said a few weeks back that PFC only had enough money to last out until the end of May. How then, is the club paying the day to day running expenses? Because he is corrupt as the next man and does not want Pompey on his CV. He will do anything he can, by any means, to keep them alive until someone else can be seen as responsible for 'killing the club'. But of course, nobody has the balls to be seen as the man who killed Portsmouth FC. So the saga will continue forever and ever and Pompey will continue to rip off local businessmen, not pay their tax and buy players they can't afford because nobody is going to stop them.

Liquidation - which is still a real possibility - would be a devastating loss to not only the culture of the City but to the many Pubs, shops and other premises around Fratton Park that depend on the match day revenue to survive. Tourism from away fans coming to the City for many weekends of the year would also be lost. This club cannot be allowed to fail for the good of the City as well as for the Fans Edited 12 July, 2012 by trousers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmel Posted 12 July, 2012 Share Posted 12 July, 2012 Intresting post regarding the new coach situation. Not sure if it is true, but sounds plausible. One of the reasons for the delay must be checking the legality of making a position redundant and then some weeks later offering your mate the same job.

Verbal Posted 12 July, 2012 Share Posted 12 July, 2012 Steve Cotterill sacked by Forest.

Kanu's tied up a few of the disputed millions there which means less ready cash for the club. Maybe his actions to register a complaint and claim against Pompey will open the floodgates!!

His legal challenge is interesting though. Not really. Especially if, as reported, he contacted the club before he was due to start training and informed them of his legitimate reason for not attending. All it does it make the administrator look like a complete c-unt allegedly stating in the paper that he had no idea where Kanu was, when all along he knew exactly where he was and why he was there! It also makes Neil Allen's 'where's Kanu' crusade look more than pathetic! Perhaps it's time for MLG to give him a little tweet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex-directors David Lampitt, John Redgate and Nick Byrom did so in May, diverting vital distribution funds required by Pompey." Does that mean Lampitt, Redgate and Byrom have already received what they were owed under the Football Creditors' rule (via re-direction of the parachute payments)? If that's the case, then why hasn't this also happened with all the players, in order to recover their deferred/unpaid wages? All seems a tad inconsistent to me....

rallyboy Posted 12 July, 2012 Share Posted 12 July, 2012 whatever delayed payment plan has been agreed with Mullins, I'll wager he never sees a single penny of it. It's not much of a firesale of playing talent, more like curious passers-by just helping themselves to stuff out of a skip. What became of UnAppy's promise of three players out earlier in the week and the embargo lifted? I reckon he needs to watch out because pompey coaching hero quality over quantity Clotterill is ready to ride back into town to save the day. Presumably he's doing a press conference somewhere refusing to accept that he's been sacked and explaining how in real terms he's actually been promoted.

Um Bongo Posted 12 July, 2012 Share Posted 12 July, 2012 Just looking at their first team profile on their OS is laughable. They have: Goalkeepers: NONE Defenders: Aaron Mokoena (Will be gone by the end of the week) Greg Halford Tal Ben-Haim (30k a week) Adam Webster (Will surely get a starting place) Midfielders: Liam Lawrence (Won't stay) David Norris (On verge of moving to Leeds) Attackers: Kanu (Hasn't returned and probably won't) Dave Kitson Ashley Harris Luke Varney (On verge of moving) Erik Huseklepp That's it.
