Golden Balls Posted 6 August, 2015 Share Posted 6 August, 2015 McInnes is the chairman and he did indeed say it. It got a big laugh from the Neanderthals at the BBC fans forum at Fratton Park. He really doesn't come across as professional at all... its lunatics running the asylum. I want to say I can't believe that. But I can. Such a lack of class that side if the M27 (Ted Bates booing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pamplemousse Posted 6 August, 2015 Share Posted 6 August, 2015 "If money was no object, which player would you bring to Pompey?" McIness: "Ruben Reid" (to much laughter) Paul Cook: "I wouldn't sign him!" McIness: "Andy [Awford] said that and he got sacked!" :mciness: Not impressed on POL either Is McInnes pished? He's slurring, making comments about Peter Storey, calling previous owners crooks. He is coming over as unprofessional and out of control. McInnes really needs to button it now and again....well, a bit more than now and again. Sorry but, as a chairman, its embarrassing. Let mark Catlin do and talk about the club. He is articulate and doesn't venture into cheap gags Ego maniac IMO. Very sad. As Chairman he should show a bit of decorum, the comments about Andy were out of order really. He needs to shut up . A chairman can't make jokes about a fellow clubs supporter being killed live on the radio . He's been behaving in a disgraceful manor tonight. The shame of it is that he appears to have let his own success in the business world go to his swede. people would be up in arms if Ralph Krueger has said the same thing about us. There are a few comments from the skullheads who found the comments hilarious, McIness is a legend innit for killing scummaz but most of the comments seem fairly reasonable. But don't worry folks, they haven't forgotten about us Like Andrew Moon I cringed at McInnes over the top comments,chances are the ponies weren't listening but those who read this forum will be adding it to their mega thread. Stuff their mega thread. It's only the total dinlos left on it now anyway. Dinlos?? I think the word this skate was looking for is nutjob Meanwhile, our old friend Corporate Ho has been peddling a few Portsmyths again But how do we build a new stadium at a cost of around £50m without crippling the club like scum did?

But don't worry folks, they haven't forgotten about us Those are mostly fair comments. I did listen to most of the Solent broadcast. I think Catlin and Cook are doing a decent job for them but McInnes is a liability. He has got that alkie slur and loss of awareness of boundaries. I imagine he thinks he is unsackable because hes put money in, but they'd be better off with one of the other presidents in the chair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trousers Posted 6 August, 2015 Share Posted 6 August, 2015 So, this new stadium that "crippled" us.... Will that be the same stadium (aka infrastructure) that made us a viable proposition for serious investors thus ultimately being a key factor in turning around our fortunes? Maybe we should have taken a leave out of Pompey:s book and "crippled" the club by overspending on players we couldn't afford instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crab Lungs Posted 7 August, 2015 Share Posted 7 August, 2015 Not even halfway through that Fan's Forum, it's absolutely ridiculous. Players are apparently freezing when they play for Pompey, weighed down by the enormity of the occasion playing in front on "18-19,000 passionate fans". Additionally, apparently everywhere they go everyone wants to beat Pompey. It's real sick bucket stuff. McInnes is utterly classless which, ironically, suits the knuckle-dragging, delusional, sister-bothering, cretinous weirdos to a tee. F()ck me listening to that really does re-ignite your hatred for them. Can only hope we play them at somepoint soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crab Lungs Posted 7 August, 2015 Share Posted 7 August, 2015 Wow. Just heard the McInnes comment. I've no doubt he didn't mean it, my theory is that he's just a soft-as-sh1te porkster who likes a drink and is in all honesty, thoroughly scared of the audience of neanderthals - hence why he made those moronic comments in some kind of weird, vain attempt to pander to them. The fact it was also totally and despicably unprofessional and nasty is another matter altogether. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldNick Posted 8 August, 2015 Share Posted 8 August, 2015 i have just listened to McInnes and whilst it was done to play up to the fans, should not the Council safety officer not be a tad concerned that pieces of masonry are falling off and McInnes own words it might kill someone?

Dark Munster Posted 8 August, 2015 Share Posted 8 August, 2015 Yay I am part of a mega thread. Welcome to the nutjob clan. Only 6402 more posts and you'll be up there with Lord Trousers. Actually, by that time you'll need a few thousand more to keep up. Talking of which... Great result. Need to see them promoted this season to keep the interest levels up. Play up Pompey! Steady on, old chap. Let's not get carried away. If relegation is out of the question, I'll also go along with the heartbreaking playoff loss. Forget semi-finals, a penalty shoot out failure in the final would be suitably agonising I think, as well as keeping this epic thread humming along nicely.

Just for a millisecond I thought Rodney Parade might be on there too. If it ain't happening this season I'm pretty sure it ain't happening at all, cos they're never doing the grounds for the National League. On the bright side, we can all play as Saints at a proper Fratton and stuff them many times instead of having to pick one of the other ramshackle tinpot lower league pretend sheds.

People went to war from Southampton, Preston, Gibraltar, India... don't see Sachin Tendulkar daubing the walls of the stadium in Kochi reminding them of the absolute thousands who fought for the empire... Oh and if that isn't sick inducing enough, it wasn't even Alan Ball's actual quote; It's a great idea, and is every bit as iconic and inspiring as the "This is Anfield" sign in the tunnel at Liverpool's ground. However, I think, at the risk of being called pedantic, it would have been nice if they had quoted Ballie properly. he actually said. that Portsmouth "is a tough, street-fighting city, and they send people to war from here" I do however applaud the sentiment, and agree whole-heartedly that the players and staff should find all the inspiration they need in that tunnel. All credit to the club for doing this, and thanks to one of our "greats" for the quote, which is every bit as relevant today as it ever was.....PLAY UP, POMPEY Edited 10 August, 2015 by Crab Lungs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
