rooney Posted 17 January, 2014 Posted 17 January, 2014 Correct me if I am wrong:rolleyes: Mark Trappiani of Snows motor group? encouraging other businesses to take out shares in Pompey etc.. I always thought this Snows motor group was a Southampton business etc originating from Snows office supplies? HQ in Milbrook Road Southampton......Geoff and Stephen Snow.. Maybe car showrooms all over Hampshire.. Maybe Pompey supporter is talking about Snows outlet at Porchester or Fareham.. Thought Snows family were Saints supporters... Mr & Mrs Snow senior were strong Saints Supporters and had a table in Corporate Hospitality at SMS. They thought that Rupes was great but seem to have disappeared without trace since we were relegated from the Premiership in Rednaps time.
Gemmel Posted 17 January, 2014 Posted 17 January, 2014 http://www.portsmouth.co.uk/sport/pompey/fogden-takes-pay-cut-to-join-pompey-1-5814077 A small "nutjob" observation, that the new signing is wearing Kappa training kit - Which is strange (Unless of course they haven't got any money and didn't budget for new training kit) Would be interesting to know if squad numbers are allocated based on what old spare kit is left :) :)
eurosaint Posted 17 January, 2014 Posted 17 January, 2014 Buying from a Jaguar dealer rather than a SEAT one? Seems a fairly safe decision The Snows that I nearly bought from are BMW dealers in Newport http://www.snowsisleofwightbmw.co.uk/ and it was a toss up between a 5 series there or an XF from H A Fox which is what I bought in the end ! I guessed that all the Snows garages were BMW and owned by Skates but maybe I'm wrong ??
dronskisaint Posted 17 January, 2014 Posted 17 January, 2014 Just missing Barbie and it will be just like the old days on here Glad to see Mack & Mero are still well Always good to see Mack...the other whining illiterate only crawls out from his stone if something pokes him - usually then followed by another gargantuan failure at the cesspit so sit back and help yourself to popcorn...
Jonnyboy Posted 17 January, 2014 Posted 17 January, 2014 Why does Portsmouth need help to recover? Surely all they need to do is re-distribute some of the £300m annual income that the football club attracts to the city? Now now, we'll have no socialist talk on here ;-)

Chez Posted 17 January, 2014 Posted 17 January, 2014 (edited) The fella in the middle reminds me of nick frost's character in Sean of the dead, having become a zombie at the end of the movie. I wonder if the fella second from right has worked out what you do with those stick shaped items yet? The scene as a whole reminds me of one of a last minute float entries at titchfield carnival in the 1980s. Edited 17 January, 2014 by Chez
rallyboy Posted 17 January, 2014 Posted 17 January, 2014 Take That shouldn't have reformed, it was never going to be the same again. That picture reminds me of the Kop on one of those great European nights, or perhaps one of the Old Firm games. Massive.

alehouseboys Posted 17 January, 2014 Posted 17 January, 2014 IIRC wasn't that 'bandstand' erected during the Premiership years? More than likely, they had to try various ideas to cover up all those empty seats as they regular struggled to fill their little 21k capacity.

I'm afraid that in our jealousy we're losing sight of the fact this isn't just some tatty tarpaulin-covered tabernacle for tonally-challenged fishfolk. No, its the finest and bestestest rhythm section in all the land, if not the whole wide world, and the talented musicians who grace it are a credit to those hallowed seats of learning wherein they learned their craft over many years of diligent practice and study.

The scene as a whole reminds me of one of a last minute float entries at titchfield carnival in the 1980s. Imagine the thought process though as Westwood and fellow gimps approached the newly erected bandstand...."what we need out front is a couple of huge soft toys"..."and I've got a mannequin...we could tie its neck to the scaffold". Brilliant.
Waterside.saint Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Is that the milk monitors day out Every time I see this it cheers me up
FloridaMarlin Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 It does make you wonder what the weasel on the left has got in that carrier bag/scrotum dangling from his waist. It looks as though it could be clothes, so are they a clean (that description can be stretched) change of clothes, or some fetid, rank set that he's taken off. I wouldn't want to be around when that bag is opened.
Guided Missile Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 I heard from two sources this week, that Pompey will be going into administration again...
View From The Top Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 I heard from two sources this week, that Pompey will be going into administration again... Dumb question perhaps, but what sort of sources?
Waterside.saint Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 I heard from two sources this week, that Pompey will be going into administration again... How credible are your sources, pray tell?
Weston Super Saint Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 I heard from two sources this week, that Pompey will be going into administration again... Ridiculous. They are the largest and bestest fan owned club in the universe. They have also been telling us how well run they are and that they are a model for clubs to be based on. Not only that but because they are the bestest supported club in the entire world they have actually made a lot more money than they had originally [flexibly] budgeted for, so there is absolutely no way that they can possibly overspend on anything ever again, in fact more funds have been made available in order to spend, spend, spend on more players. Administration is for the other, poorly run clubs in the world like those fackin scummahs, mush, couldn't possibly happen to the skates, not for a fifth [sixth?] time, surely?
OldNick Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 I heard from two sources this week, that Pompey will be going into administration again... they surely will one day, but have you a timeframe?
Guided Missile Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Dumb question perhaps, but what sort of sources? An ex-player and a partner at a large accountancy firm...
Guided Missile Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 they surely will one day, but have you a timeframe? Before the end of the season...that was the best estimate I got.
trousers Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 I heard from two sources this week, that Pompey will be going into administration again... "Will" is a strong word. Was that your source's opinion or is he saying that because he's seen something that means its inevitable? Cheers
Guided Missile Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 ....Oh, and Harry's probably going to West Ham...

Waterside.saint Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 After being held to a draw by Sunderland, it would boost my spirits if Mansfield could find it in themselves to beat #lowlypompey
Gorgiesaint Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Accrington leading at Cheltenham to make them even more #lowlyportsmouth
Lazlo78 Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Come on Mansfield:) Speaking of 'come on' and 'Mansfield', could Carolyn Radford DAJFU in place of NC?
Waterside.saint Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Accrington leading at Cheltenham to make them even more #lowlyportsmouth Come on Mansfield:) Rovers have a game in hand whilst Torquay had their game cancelled- that's a nice #lowlyportsmouth-shaped relegation spot that Torquay are keeping warm for them
ottery st mary Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Speaking of 'come on' and 'Mansfield', could Carolyn Radford DAJFU in place of NC? Just looked at some of her phots....Very nice indeed:D John Radford is a lucky chap. Just hope one of the ex Saints...Ryan Tafazolli.... playing centre back for Mansfield.. can win the game for Mansfield and us Saints fans.. He has already been booked...so had better stay on the park to get that winning goal:)
Matthew Le God Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Pompey 0 - Mansfield 1 Pompey currently 3rd bottom in live league table! I place and 1 point above the relegation zone to non league football. The fans trust are a bunch of deluded amateurs who haven't a clue what they are doing.
Guided Missile Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 0:1 Oh dear, what a shame, never mind...

ottery st mary Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Stevenson you beauty Was that a rocket? or have Pompey run out of steam? I know...ph
Matthew Le God Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Its a shame the Torquay vs Northampton game was postponed today. A win for Torquay would have put Pompey in the relegation zone.

Jonnyboy Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Is it just me or is Jeff Stelling laughing at their position?
Waterside.saint Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Agent Connolly subbed for Wallace - can he give away a penalty & make the game safe for Mansfield without making it too obvious?
Dalek2003 Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 As I have said before, can we lend Torquay, Billy Sharp.
Waterside.saint Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Equaliser Hopefully Connolly has a plan & will give something away shortly
View From The Top Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Fellow nutjobbers your money is required, although I'd prefer normal donations and not skate maths donations. http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/showthread.php?48631-Lounge-Lizards-I-Request-Your-Assistance#.UtqxFvRFCIU
Waterside.saint Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Could've been worse. Oxford scored to widen the gap & leave them needing at least 14 more points to make the play-offs, whilst Accrington's win has dropped #lowlyportsmouth another place closer to the drop zone
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 18 January, 2014 Posted 18 January, 2014 Listening to Solent, just heard one of their new players, who has seemingly come in from a troubled club in Turkey (?) saying, and I quote, 'there should be more protection for players who don't get their wages' then continuing to praise Pompey as a club.
