Ken Tone Posted 14 November, 2012 Share Posted 14 November, 2012 Can anyone decipher the logic in this one please? How can the trust benefit from a property dealer buying Fratton Park by paying Chainrai for this 'charge'? In response to is Robinson a fan and what's in it for him? Neil: No he's not, although has recently been to a few games, including Yeovil away. He is in it for a property deal, that is what everyone other than the Trust is primarily in it for. If you can tie all the land together it is worth a lot of money. Incidentally, the Trust stand to receive around £2.5m from the deal so both they and Robinson benefit.

Ken Tone Posted 14 November, 2012 Share Posted 14 November, 2012 The idea is to buy it and then develop the stadium along with someone like Tesco. Ah - thanks. Seems even more than usually pie-in-the-sky, if they seriously think they can a) pay off chainrai, b) buy the rest of the land, c) get planning permission, d) sell off bits of land to Tesco, yet without having to move away from Fratton to play elsewhere ... and make enough profit to give the Trust £2.5 million, on top of Robinson's own cut. I didn't realise Tesco's were that generous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably this has been dicussed on the POL message board? Have they said anything about details? Is the plan to sell of land to Tesco's or get them to knock down and redevelop a stand with a supermarket in it, like the monstrosity at Bolton's old ground? Because surely if they intend to sell off a bit of land that they do notyet own, why can't Tesco's just buy it now, directly from the current owners?

Faz Posted 14 November, 2012 Share Posted 14 November, 2012 A Point of Order: * Chinny hold a Debenture, which includes a charge over FP. * He can't exercise his powers under that Debenture because PCFC (or whatever incarnation they now inhabit) are in Administration * Administration ends in Feb unless there is a Court Order allowing it to continue - and presumably that would require the connivance of the unsecured creditors * The Consortium will make Chinny an offer based on the value of FP as a football ground - £2.5 to £3m * The Consortium intend to acquire further parcels of land to enhance the value of FP as a development opportunity * Chinny will allow that to happen without tying them up in legal knots until February. Close the thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bridge too far Posted 14 November, 2012 Share Posted 14 November, 2012 Now, for the life of me I can't remember who owns what in the FP area but could it be that the trust might gain ownership of a ransom strip, rendering FP of little value unless the ransom strip is sold for an extortionate sum?

rallyboy Posted 14 November, 2012 Share Posted 14 November, 2012 So the big day for the Trust is nearly upon us, their chance to thrill us with pioneering plans is here! A year in the making, it's going to be sensational.... Things they will tell us.... It's Trust or bust. Time is of the essence. The property developers are only on board to help them and will barely make a penny. The fans will have control of the club - sort of. Things they will gloss over.... Loan sharks don't go away. The court case over the ground could go on forever. Any promotion in the next five years is a pipedream. Where the extra £6M will come from. The current wages are grossly overbudget. Cup hero Kanu is still claiming an amount that could sink the whole deal on it's own. The figures no longer stack up because Birch is spending their capital. The fans' support has been quite poor, both at the park and in pledges. The club has financial irregularity charges to answer. Tesco don't give a sh1t about them. The points penalty is a basic requirement of golden share ownership. Crimes committed by 'the club' under previous owners were still crimes committed by 'the club.' The chequered history of some parties involved. In their argument the ground value changes between £2M and £10M, depending on whether the Trust is trying to buy it or sell it. Any mention of the property developers taking the FaPPT?... The fact that your average pompey fan would wet the floor if the sign instructed them to, and couldn't pose a relevant question even if it was tattooed on his sister's back, makes you think that the media line tomorrow night will be of glorious battling fan power. A new dawn, pompey trailblazing their way to glorytown - a local club for local people. It's what the people want to hear, so let's feed them frothy sickly spin. Rather than a tale of the clueless and blindly-ambitious hopes of the property developing Trust that has come too far to admit defeat, but has little chance of surviving the financial sh!t storm that they have stepped into. And all this will come from a propsectus that was originally promised around the time that man first crawled from the sea and attempted to develop thumbs. It had better be the bestest prospectus ever, because there are a lot of questions that need answers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hutch Posted 15 November, 2012 Share Posted 15 November, 2012 So shït or bust time has arrived. This will be interesting, I'm already confused. According to Trev, the PST have signed the contract to purchase the club, but it is conditional on a Court challenge over the Park. What is interesting is that he says the Trust is buying the club. He also says the Trust is buying the Park. But the Trust hasn't got any money. So either something odd is afoot, or Trev is (at best) being economical with the truth. I'm not suggesting in any way that this relates to Pompey, but it would be a jolly good prank to get the intellectually challenged to buy shares in a trust if they thought that the trust was going to buy the football club and the stadium with their money.

andysstuff Posted 15 November, 2012 Share Posted 15 November, 2012 Finalise by Xmas? Doesn't exactly leave them long to collect the pledges in does it.

70's Mike Posted 15 November, 2012 Share Posted 15 November, 2012 Seems to me that the Trust is a front for a few businessmen with a little bit of cash each, to gain control of a football club.Have a good time for a few years at creditors expense and then go pop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
