Waterside.saint Posted 29 September, 2015 Share Posted 29 September, 2015 Ah - a nostalgic trip back to page 698 -I enjoyed that! I guess time had dulled the memory as to how thick PFC123 was, how Ho still proclaimed that there was greatness ahead for them, that charities and businesses would get paid..and f**k me there's a post from Mack (Hi Mack!) that is grammatically ok, spelled correctly...I suspect a ringer...and not of the evil-smelling, tw*t-hatted variety! Five years on, karma tastes as sweet and smells as wonderful as their festering fat-ridden smells putrid. Long may the comedy continue!! :-) I get Mack's mis-spelt parody, it's like the patched coat and clown shoes of a superannuated children's entertainer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny how five years on, some of the few still don't understand what happened. We must be due another attendance debate pretty soon, though I see their full houses aren't looking that full.

Golden Balls Posted 30 September, 2015 Share Posted 30 September, 2015 Didn't even know they played last night. Just been told they lost. Apparently they battered them all game though. I'm not arguing if they did or didn't, just found it funny the skate had to mention it. Anyway, onto Yeovil Town. I might try and catch the result after we've played the champions.

Ohio Saint Posted 30 September, 2015 Share Posted 30 September, 2015 Meh, they are doing quite well at the moment. Give credit where it's due (See what I did there? Due credit?)

Mr Biscuits Posted 30 September, 2015 Share Posted 30 September, 2015 They'll sit in league one obscurity for a while when they realise there isn't any more money coming their way. The stadium will eventually be closed on health and safety grounds and they will have to ground share with Havant &waterlooville. Meanwhile their fan base will be eroded by bigger and better teams either way up the coast. Lower table obscurity will do just fine.

The9 Posted 1 October, 2015 Share Posted 1 October, 2015 "Admired around the world," allegedly: http://www.pompeytrust.com/news/trust-announce-increase-in-shareholding Meanwhile, the Newport County Supporters Trust have today announced they've achieved their fundraising target and will take over the club subject to the formality of FL approval, holding more than 50% of shares in the club having bought out the top two shareholders. Way better than a poxy 48.48% and an agreed plan to pay off creditors without needing to go into adminstration, never mind 3 relegations. Amazing what can be achieved with a little foresight. Newport County also now has £236k more than they did have for this season's running costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
