Danish Saint Posted 2 August, 2012 Share Posted 2 August, 2012 8 days and counting... Huseklepp was presented at Bergen the other day. For having been one of the great hopes of Norwegian football, they've slated him quite badly for choosing such crap clubs as Bari and Pompey when going abroad.

Rate: Pompeyexile 8:32 AM on 02/08/2012 Sounds like Chainrai has now accepted a huge loss coming and is hoping the Trust will take over in any bidding... In either case, if the 3 players haven't gone by the 10th, Birch's 'bluff' will be called and all the conjecture will be over.. Birch cannot retract the deadline...

eurosaint Posted 2 August, 2012 Share Posted 2 August, 2012 Could be an interesting day, what with the PTS statement at 11.00am ! Chinny breaking cover and suggesting a role for the Trust also puts a whole new slant on things ! But, not too worry Nutjobs, every which way they are f#cked, it's only a matter of degree and there is plenty of life and laughs in this old thread yet to come !!!!!!!

Torres Posted 2 August, 2012 Share Posted 2 August, 2012 Despite all that we've seen on this thread, I'm still amazed at the muppets down the road lapping up this crap and not seeing that the only person that can "kill off the club" is Chinny. If he dropped his claims for his £18m the club would survive into next season and beyond with relative ease. The outstanding PPs would cover the remaning football creditors and the club would then have to live within its means - but it would survive...

While no doubt they have a hardcore of good supporters who turn up through thick or thin, how are they any better than any other supporter? Looking at home attendances, we know that it isn't great. Sure the usual excuses can be trotted out. The argument that they have great support in bad times, doesn't really stack up when you look at clubs like Man City and Leeds. Last season I think Wet Sham far out did them (and most all others) in all aspects of support, week in week out. As for being the best fans in the world, have they ever said that?

Lazlo78 Posted 2 August, 2012 Share Posted 2 August, 2012 Reading statements like the one below, I would quake in my boots if I was part of the trust: Appleton says he does not think a fans group taking control of the club would compromise the amount he has to spend in the transfer market. "I'd like to think from the administrator's point of view, Trevor has put together the same business module for all parties interested in buying the club and that includes the Trust," said Appleton. "So I would hope my transfer budget would not be compromised if they took over the club." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpine_saint Posted 2 August, 2012 Share Posted 2 August, 2012 So the remaining players are threatened out of the club in the next few days, the morons then praise them, Chanrai comes back for his money and they start signing championship players knowing they won't need to pay the debt in a couple of years? One thing I wonder - how does such a business get credit anywhere? You'd think it impossible, with a history of writing off 99.8% of debt, but they added a huge number of creditors last time after having been in administration and already wiped out 80% of debt.

This seeme dto arise following their heavy 6 goal defeat at the hands of Arsenal... when they were cheering Henry and he mentioned how great they were in his post match interview... now I am all for acknowledging briliance and being sporting and gracious in defeat etc, but for some strange reason they and the media seem to have latched on to this as some sort of differentiator. The second aspect is that Fratton is the last heap of ****e old school style ground - now at home in league 1/2 - and the natural proximity of fans to the pitch, does make a more 'raditional' atmosphere etc - something most prem teams often choke in... remember how many teams hated playing us at the Dell for the same reasons. They like all clubs have a hard core who will stick by them etc, and like all clubs some decent hoonest fans - but to suggest that they are the 'bestest' (sic) and play up to this is not arrogant, but naive in the extreme.. and funy as feck as a result.

Think this is the the unique thing about football - most transfer fees etc and probably signing on fees will be in installments and some deffered... and HMRC are ignored (the pompey way) and they get 'credit' from the loan shark owners who want it back (think 10 mil to CSI), 18 mil to Chinney etc....

yoda Posted 2 August, 2012 Share Posted 2 August, 2012 so after many months of hard work, keeping everything under wraps, giving no-one details for fear of spoiling the surprise while hyping up their proposal, the trust will finally show their hand. i'll bet the drama queens are loving it, it'll be like their own olympic opening ceremony but instead of featuring a wealth of talent, hard work and good honest product, we'll see a few shuffling morons presenting a plan based on prayer and magic beans.

rallyboy Posted 2 August, 2012 Share Posted 2 August, 2012 UnAppy seeks meeting? But I'd like to think over the next few days I would be given the opportunity to speak to Portpin and come up with a different solution. I am coming at it from a different perspective and that's what I'm going to try and do That one sentence tells us 1. He has no meeting arranged. 2. He has no idea of a budget so cannot make ANY offers. 3. Birch has left him out of the loop completely. 4. There is NO forward planning. 5. It's all a bit chaotic, and time is running out faster than Avram will in a police raid. Meanwhile, the Trust are about to unveil the slowest emergency bid ever tabled. Expect a hint more for creditors than Chinny, no thought about paying him off, a promise of funding that they don't actually have, a token rich bloke who probably owns a plumbing company or timber merchants, and some vague claims about being self-sustaining and buying land they cannot afford. Add in some plucky spin about the fans and a pioneering structure that will change international football forever, and we have a bucket of nothing in particular.
