They both usually link to the same place - little bit odd they've put a "maintenance" message up on one but just a "website unavailable" one on the other.

 

Unless it is a lie and they are trying to mislead their fans.

In other breaking news all transfer activity as pompey has been halted after their brown paper envelope suppliers removed all their stock from Fratton park due to non-payment.

Just seen it on Sky sports news Breaking news Poopey web-site down due to non payment to the operator. Another LOL moment. I Hope the Poopey supporters are buying their tickets with a credit card? or are they only excepting cash at Krap Notarf

Woes at Portsmouth affecting Guernsey

Financial woes at Premiership football club Portsmouth are having a knock-on effect in Guernsey.

 

The club was funding the island's soccer development centre - hoping to find a new Matt Le Tissier.

 

But local coaches working for the club have been paid late and bills for hiring pitches and training facilities have not been met.

 

This morning the Guernsey Football Association has pledged to keep the centre going for the rest of this season.

 

Portsmouth say they'll continue to pay the coaches, but the GFA will now pick up the bills for venue hire - reckoned to be around two thousand pounds.

no surprise what so ever.

 

it's a joke that their embargo was lifted at all.

 

From what i have heard.... (my best mate works for them) that there is somewhat of a rebellion going on.... I.e equipment is being taken in exchange for unpaid wages (he is the cameraman)

 

It gets better all the time. ! :)

They are trying to take on additional wages with loanees - £10K,£20K a week? Yet they can't pay their local suppliers a few quid?

 

Criminal, despicable, unethical = bringing the game and the league into disrepute.

 

Nail on the head.

 

The fact that they are doing this with the Premier Leagues blessing makes it all the worse.

With Portsmouth now admitting to failing to pay yet another body, how can the FA let them carry on? They clearly have no money. They cannot function as a working club. The staff won't be paid. It's like watching a deer spasm around after being hit by a car going at 50mph. Just shoot them and do the right thing.

surely they're insolvent? they're only paying players wages (late) each month by getting short term loan deals (i.e not their money)

 

and apparently, the info on the wage slip (who's paid them) changes every month.

What makes me sad Mero is that the majority of your fans are now suffering because of incompetence, and lying, cheating bastards.

 

I hope they all go down for a long long time.

All the best.

 

..and to the Poopey fans who still gloat about our position in L1....look up Karma in a dictionary.

 

Oh. You can't read...and fish can't turn pages. Nevermind.

Pompey away at Man City on Sunday.

 

That is quite a long way to go, Wonder if they can afford to fill the coach up with petrol

 

Maybe the players will end up catching lifts off the supporters.

Apparently talks in advanced stages to sell Kaboul back to Spuds! Every little helps, eh Harry?!

 

Begovic as well apparently! Does that mean Niemi in goal against us?

Down here (and all over africa), a "taxi" is a 16-seater minibus (Toyota HiAce type). Should do nicely, most of them will be familiar!

Pompey's website being disconnected is laughable enough.

 

But surely this will cost the club more money as the site advertising isn't being displayed and the advertisers can pull their funding? :cool:

Did I read somewhere that if their staff don't get paid for a third time, then they will be wound up/placed in admin/other punishment? I am sure I read it, but I could have been dreaming. I do have some odd dreams; Pompey v Saints FA Cup final the other night.

Dreaming I think as no automatic link I believe. However the list of creditors could go up a bit more, lucky for then they have such a small squad.

It means the players can hand 14 days notice in and walk away for free... which is probably a massive reason why P*mpey have been quiet on the selling, quite simply because clubs have been waiting for payday to see if they can pick their targets up on a freebie.
