TopGun Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 (edited) Kevan James on Solent this morning saying this is their worst run for 30 something years - though I'm sure the snooze will be able to spin it into another 'record beating run' The News and Neil Allen and his chums have a new tactic. There are now excellent defeats, good defeats, promising defeats etc. I believe it is the case that an excellent defeat means that they have actually won the game in la-la land reality. Interesting to see Portpin confirming yet another court case deferral to the Telegraph whilst the PST and PKF have said nothing again. Edited 30 January, 2013 by TopGun

Joe Kirkup Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Over on POL one of those close to the trust is saying that Chinny is squeezing PKF and they're scared. why didn't they listen to him before I am secured, I will get my money

Matthew Le God Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 @pn_Rory_McKeown: PKF confirm #Pompey's court hearing adjourned until February 14, 2013. Are they planning a 2013 remake of this...? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DAiWLy6lxVU
a1ex2001 Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 How the judge thinks granting an extension to the admin is a good idea I don't know, the Pompey circus is totally out of control and has moved from making a mockery of football to making a mockery of the British court system.
St Marco Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Maybe it is time we got a petition together to send to the government (think you need 200k signatures) As it cant be right that people are being sacked, pay cuts while administrators are taking home that money that could of kept those people employed. They have been in admin almost a year and look no better for it. It is a slap in the face to all those people at other companies who lost their jobs because they went into admin. It is a scandal that they allow them to continue for so long.

OldNick Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Have they asked for it to be adjourned so that Pompey can claim a victory, of course the only only chance of seeing a victory is to go to Portsmouth dockyard
Kingsland Red Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 So, 17th August,that means Div 2 minus (at least) ten points. Nice one !
Colinjb Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 So, 17th August,that means Div 2 minus (at least) ten points. Nice one ! Assuming they haven't been ejected from the league....
Matthew Le God Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 So, 17th August,that means Div 2 minus (at least) ten points. Nice one ! If they aren't out of admin by May/June, the Football League won't let them start the 2013/14 season.
Clapham Saint Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 How the judge thinks granting an extension to the admin is a good idea I don't know, the Pompey circus is totally out of control and has moved from making a mockery of football to making a mockery of the British court system. If no extension was granted, after the 12 month deadline passed, the administration would have automatically ended and the directors would have taken back control. Anybody who thinks that this would have been a good idea would have to be a complete and utter "Nutjob".
Clapham Saint Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Thar's interesting. He could have got a six month extension from the creditors without troubling the Judge. Obviously considered that too risky. To be a fly on the wall for that conversation... TB: Chinny my old mate, could I please have a six month extension so that I can try and wrap up the sale to the PST? Chinny: F*&^ off.
Um Bongo Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Court hearing adjourned until 14th Feb. How apt

Do they just copy and paste the statements after every adjournment then ?? They are hilarious. In one breath... "The new delay is very frustrating for the PST bid team" Then the next... "Our bid is virtually complete and the additional time will allow the final i's to be dotted and t's to be crossed" So which is it? Do you want more time or not?
Under Weststand Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 LOL PKF get another 6-months to continue raping the corpse more pound notes disappearing down the drain along with the fat. And still the trust exclaim the delay is a good thing as it allows them time to finalize their bid. Just how long will they continue with this unadulterated B****cks! How many times over the last phew months have they been finalizing their bid. And another rant just how many i's & how many more t's need crossing for f**k sake. There must be nearly as many I's & T's as L's against their team. All I can say is thank god for the PST's transparency, its more like the secret service. I used to want them gone liquidated, now I pray that the trust get to take them over. Let the comedy keep rolling.
Pugwash Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 They're short of their break even gate by a thousand or more each home match. The administrators are draining them at about £60k a month. The lawyers continue to chew through the money at a rate of knots. PPs will probably not even 'rest' in their account before going to football creditors. The rate of new gifts - sorry, pledges - coming in is clearly way short of the burn rate. And yet the further delay is supposed to be a GOOD thing?????!!!! Not enough face-palms...
St Jim Posted 31 January, 2013 Posted 31 January, 2013 Is there a cut off date for them exiting administrations for when the 10 points get deducted (i.e. this season / next season) or is it simply at the discretion of the FL?
hutch Posted 31 January, 2013 Posted 31 January, 2013 They genuinely do seem to be too dim to make the connection between them not yet having made a bid to PKF & PKF not being able to go to Court for approval to accept that bid. S'between PKF 'n Portpin innit? Nuffink to do wiv de PST.
Thedelldays Posted 31 January, 2013 Posted 31 January, 2013 surely, even the biggest halfwit of a pompey fan can see there is no hope for their club...? surely, they are better off accepting fate and preparing early to 'start again' and have a right go from the off...if they did it right, they could be in league 2 in a few years and have many great travels and laughs doing so.....
Danish Saint Posted 31 January, 2013 Posted 31 January, 2013 How can the money disappear down the drain, when they're all clogged with fat?
CB Saint Posted 31 January, 2013 Posted 31 January, 2013 If TB will do what's right for the creditors, he get the pp's close the business, sell the ground and distribute the lot to chanrai.

Surely, the longer this drags on, the value of Portsmouth FC or whatever it's called gets LESS and LESS So, it could well be that SOMEONE will end up buying Portsmouth FC or whatever it's called for £1 Then they can start with a clean (though refurbished twice) sheet Edited 31 January, 2013 by SaintRichmond spelling

Ken Tone Posted 31 January, 2013 Posted 31 January, 2013 Maradona will replace Whittingham today. Don't be silly -- **** Whittington and Andy Awful are doing a fantastic job. Now Maradona to sign as a player because he's heard so much about the passion of the fans -- that's a much more credible story!
Ken Tone Posted 31 January, 2013 Posted 31 January, 2013 I see the swear filter does not allow me to use the diminutive form of Richard. Rather spoilt my allusion to pantomime!
Doctoroncall Posted 31 January, 2013 Posted 31 January, 2013 Is there a cut off date for them exiting administrations for when the 10 points get deducted (i.e. this season / next season) or is it simply at the discretion of the FL? The points penalty will be applied at the discretion of the FL, but only after they come out of admin. So it's seems possible they could get points deducted this or next season, however the longer it takes the more likely it will be next season if the current form continues. there are so many scenarios, it needs a decision tree to see all possibilities!
SaintRichmond Posted 31 January, 2013 Posted 31 January, 2013 I see the swear filter does not allow me to use the diminutive form of Richard. Rather spoilt my allusion to pantomime! You mean " Richard Whittington " You're right ... not the same ring to it

The budget also includes income from £11k gates and from the sale of golden goose eggs.
