Pompey Takeover Saga


Fitzhugh Fella

Recommended Posts

But of course its all ok as long its not the fans fault, right?

 

Yes, of course. If you're a Pompey fan you can detach and distance yourself from all the bad things that were done in your name but keep all the good stuff. A history pick and mix if you like.

 

FA Cup win....? "Kanu is our hero!".... Players being paid to much....? "Kanu! Leave the club without being paid what you're due you leaching scum!"

not sure I can face it.

Sycophantic backslapping, dewy-eyed children, doves being released, stunt display by mobility scooters - it's all going to be a bit sickly.

 

 

 

Will they release those details today?

What is Chinny going to get?

On the day of purchase, what percentage was bought by the fans?

 

This is a job for our old mate 'avin a larf mush'.

He'd sort out some transparency.

 

I predict another media love-in where elephants sit in front of the PDT bedsheet banner, yet no one mentions them.

Agreed...always good to see a massive PR build up before reality sends it plumetting to the ground! Thousands of posts left in this thread - take your seats for endless amusement as they pluckily take on clubs two whole steps above Eastleigh :D

Im with Lord Trousers on this one, popcorn at the ready... nutjob style.

 

champagne ian will be popping corks off everywhere, straight out of the bar chiller, most likely from Chinnys stock too... just stick it on the tab, the parachute will cover everything ten times over.

 

Any spillages during aggressive back slapping can be mopped up using the pdt bedsheet.

 

Im interested in Chinnys floater, £2m cash above and beyond his fixed charge on the assets which Birch forgot about.

 

Will the pdt validate TCWTBs season ticket for life, along with the other 300 skates?

Wayhay....they're gonna fix the pipes at long last!

 

As supporters we’ll be there on a match day, but we’ll also be there in numbers whenever the board needs us: whether that’s to paint the changing rooms, fix a leaky pipe or clear snow from the pitch. It’s a proper football club now, it’s back to where it started by being a team for the people of Portsmouth (people from other locales also accepted) and we love it even more because of this.

The chances of any difficult questions being asked or any non-positive information being released? Close to zero.

Anyone for a sweepstake on how often the phrase "sorry, can't elaborate on that yet as it's still commercially sensitive" crops up...?

What percentage of PFC is owned by the supporters?

 

That's easy - 100%.

 

The supporters own PFC and a piece of paper that says Golden Share.

 

The Property Developers own the Players, the Land, the (how many times they been repossessed Computers) The ticket office Hut, the paper clips, the Kettle etc etc etc

 

It's all about The Spin

Chinny's floater might be the turd that flushes them out :-)

 

Of course it would not be at all funny if TB had actually gone and paid that off before the sale went through and the boys woke up from their 13k hangover to find a debatable black hole because of that (or something else)

 

No siree it would not be funny at all, oh how the media would wail.

Is it me or have they seemingly binned "Farmery" since they took control?

@pn_neil_allen: Presidents have put in £1.6m. Trust is expected to account 'for more than 50 per cent'. Money still coming in. #Pompey

The whole setup since the takeover has been far from professional - from the guys cracking out the bubbly in the directors' box and milking the applause in the centre circle the other day to this press conference, which looks like its taking place in my local village hall! It's a world away from what we've become accustomed to from our owners who have revamped the whole image of the club and just quietly go about their business in the background.
