Minsk Posted 21 March, 2013 Share Posted 21 March, 2013 http://pompeyownership.wordpress.com/2013/03/20/who-should-run-our-club-that-is-the-question/ I stopped reading when I came to this statement He clearly does not remember Tony Husband telling them how much the FA Cup cost to buy http://s298.photobucket.com/user/Saint_John_Photos/media/Cheats%20FC/01FinancialRuin.mp4.html Perhaps he thinks £137M is sustainable debt or perhaps somebody told him they had a Banksy to sell ? So, you would have missed these two gems: 1. A new Portsmyth that they have surpassed others at something: With the exception of Rangers Football Club, the phenomenal descent from being a respected member of the Premier League club to our now lowly League 1 and “penniless” position, has undoubtedly surpassed anything that has happened to a British league club before. I am sure that we worked out on here weeks ago that others have plummeted from top flight to bottom quicker than they will have done. If memory serves me correctly, didn't Luton and Swansea drop from top flight to bottom in consecutive seasons? Whereas the phew has 2 seasons in the champ. 2. I think this is the closest I have seen from any Skate that the cup win was the cause of their downfall: Yes, there were ownership issues, starting with Gaydamak who run up a large debt after the money ran out. This was then compounded by the debacle of having transparent or unfit owners. However, I believe the period from early 2008 to December 2009 as key in contributing most to our current situation. Not a full confession, not even half a confession, but a slight hint towards it as early 2008 was prior to the cup win. However, as I say, this is the closest I have seen to any Skate linking that cup win with their current predicament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallyboy Posted 21 March, 2013 Share Posted 21 March, 2013 NO, NO, NO!!! They were solvent and fully funded right up to the final whistle of the cup final, it was the economic slump that caused the problem, not a fall in the price of landmines, they were just unlucky, could have happened to anyone. Which reminds me of a point that gets overlooked such is the length of the list of crimes. Even if they are claiming that they were unlucky with the funding, let's not forget that this particular sand castle was built on limbless children, victims of civil war, and more recently pensioner's life savings and organised crime - so the whole lot has been stolen or earned through arms dealing and money-laundering! Which means that even when they were nearly solvent, their money was soaked in blood, guts, whores, drugs and misery. Thankfully their top investigator exposed it all. Oh, actually he didn't, he just took his 1974 pudding basin haircut up Wembley Way and celebrated with lucky heather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quick get onto the News, he's a perfect specimen for their very popular 'Cu*t Heroes' thingy they're doing at the mo. And they were that close to another candidate this evening too. Got in from work, the missus was watching 'Come Dine With Me', tonight coming from Chichester, and there's this 'orrible little c*nt on there (all the hallmarks of an inbred) and tho and behold, he turns up at a contestants house with a gift of a skate shirt. Everything suddenly made sense. Despite his delusions that he was by far the "bestest" cook/host and was going to win, of course, (he was actually called deluded on there) he didn't, and so the News missed out on that particular cu*t hero. He came last btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rallyboy Posted 22 March, 2013 Share Posted 22 March, 2013 that piece on Spain rings a few bells - hospital services cut, tax unpaid contributing to hardship, gross mismanagement, and overspending. While Saints mess about with some pipedream of a Barcelona-style set up, pompey are just following the blueprint that won the world cup. They truly are blazing a trail and pioneering a new way for the game in Britain. Bigger clubs like Stevenage and Bury could learn a few things.

fanimal Posted 22 March, 2013 Share Posted 22 March, 2013 As its Friday 22nd, how about a countdown of working days to the 10th or 11th? Next week is a short week with Easter, then its April, the time will fly - including today I make it only 11 days left if the PST want to sort out an out of court settlement with Portpin. Nearer the time could someone tag on the music from the Rocky film, "its the final countdown"?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PMSL, good old skates, the hypocrisy is staggering. Circa £50 MILLION denied to the tax payer by the skates in just five years across the board; VAT, PAYE, NI, Income Tax... And to top it all off they are forcing the council to loan them a load of cash because their 'fans' couldnt/couldnt be bothered to raise enough money to buy their dilapidated, crumbling, cesspit of a liability/stadium. they are getting the stadium on the cheap at the expense of the long suffering taxpayer LOL Lets hope Chinny holds firm, the poor bugger, no wonder HMRC are backing him and Harris these days... the skates have shafted the tax man and now they want to diddle poor Chinny out of his investment too.

Wolves and Bristol City in the late 70s/early 80s as well. Funnily enough IIRC, Bristol City requested that a load of their players walked away from their contracts to save the club - the difference being back when wages were reasonable and barely on a par with middle incomes, the players did it with the good of the club at heart and are now feted as saviours some 30 years on. Compare this to the Skate bullying and dismissal of the players who had the nerve to hold them to huge contracts they couldn't afford to pay in the first place.

Highfield Saint Posted 23 March, 2013 Share Posted 23 March, 2013 Someone with more time, knowledge and skill than me should write up a page in wiki or urban dictionary or the like - "Portsmyth" with a definition and examples. Definition? Possibly - A myopic or distorted view of of football clubs reputation , achievements or potential by its supporters relying on blatant ignoring facts and repetition of the to be adopted myth to the point that it becomes commonly accepted by the clubs supporters and then passed from generation to generation. For example - SCUM - Southampton Company Union Men etc and many others Perhaps this could even be a thread of its own? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintH Posted 24 March, 2013 Share Posted 24 March, 2013 I went to the Skates Cov game in the away end yesterday. Thank God that's the last time I will probably ever go to that **** hole again! Cov had their two top scorers missing and were toothless up front. Pompey were just crap all over. Hate to admit it but they probably deserve to win though. Aaron Martin did ok for Cov. He made a couple of mistakes but he is playing with with some very average players alongside him. Skates were too thick to realise he is still with us and didn't give him stick at all from what I could hear. The atmosphere was really quiet till they scored and didn't really get going till they went 2-0 up. So much for the world famous support. It was Mainly their "ner ner ner" songs and that ****ing drum and bell as usual until they burst into "you've got no stadium" to the Cov fans!! Incredible lack of sympathy for fellow skints! It was a Weird, almost sickly feeling mingling with Skates in a Pub before the game. Facial tattoos and ugly women everywhere!! One thing though - there were a few kids in Pompey shirts and I couldn't help thinking at least they support their local team not Man U and Chelsea. I must be going soft! Anyway, back to decent pubs and decent football in a great stadium next week. The Skates are many many miles behind us now and will be for years to come!!
