Weston Saint Posted 17 February, 2010 Share Posted 17 February, 2010 The report from Vantis will be unaltered. What PFC will do is add their own qualification or comments if they disagree. It is that part they hope HMRC & High Court will look kindly on, in my opinion. For Example: Vantis report - From the full investigation we have carried out the company is insolvent. Storrie addendum - no it is not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goalie66 Posted 17 February, 2010 Share Posted 17 February, 2010 So know we await the inevetable denials from Storrie that they are insolvent so that he can still encorage the phantom investor before the 1st of March. Of course any investor would want to look at that document and then wait to see if they get wound up on the 1st..so IMO they cannot get investment and will be wound up. Right?

Winchester Red Posted 17 February, 2010 Share Posted 17 February, 2010 Here's something I can't work out. If PFC only have about 20 professionals on their books and they couldn't even name a full squad during the African Nations Cup..... And Utaka says he's 'only' on £27,000 per week..... How the hell does their wage bill for playing staff come to £1.8m per month!!! £1.8m divided by 30 (allowing for coaching staff in their playing staff, plus a few) is still £60,000 per man Explain that one.

Weston Saint Posted 17 February, 2010 Share Posted 17 February, 2010 Listening to SSN now and my thoughts are if the report submitted by Vantis to the board at 2pm was showing ongoing solvency why did Portsmouth ask Vantis to factor in other points? Sounds to me that the report is not advantageous. SSN also say that rumour that they will go into Administration now or before 1st March have been denied by the club who say they will fight on. As I said in my post this morning they must have an interested party still and are holding on by their fingertips.......as they have been doing for some time. Anything can happen before 1st March but reading between the lines the game is up. They need to go into Administration before that date or they may find liquidation is suddenly fact and their gambling has destroyed the club beyond recovery.

Once a winding up petition has been advertised, the company (PFC) cannot go into administration without the Court's approval. I can't see the Registrar allowing that as she wants to clear up the little problem that she believes PFC have been trading whilst insolvent.

By all logic they should already be in administration. The fact that they're not suggests, as you say, they maintain the hope that someone will buy them out before a receiver/administrator gets involved and starts turning over rocks. The inference is the Vantis report says they're f****d, but the Directors say "Yes but we've got a ticket for this week's Euromillions and that'll sort us out".

Saint_clark Posted 17 February, 2010 Share Posted 17 February, 2010 (edited) Haven't read the last few pages, but does anybody else think that Utaka is lieing about his wage? Took him long enough to "clarify" it, and it's a bit of a coincidence that it's come around the same time they need to hand a finance report to the courts. The whole thing stinks.

St Marco Posted 17 February, 2010 Share Posted 17 February, 2010 It does not really matter about the statement of affairs to be honest and even if it favours Pompey it doesnt change anything. They were given a reprieve based on the fact they argued they were about to be taken over and wanted more time to complete it. A week later and they don't appear any closer. They only have 7 working days left now until the court case. And if they are to avoid having the plug pulled they have to have funds in place to pay their debts. If that is via a takeover or someone already in the club it does not matter. Before that date they have 2 games against Stoke and Burnley lose to either of them and they will effectively be down, draw them both and it will be the same. I can see them drawing to Stoke and then lose to Burnley and then it would not surprise me one bit to then see them go into admin. The other question is lets assume they get past the court case and they have a deal in place to pay back the debts. They then lose those games. If i remember right isn't march 10th the date you have to go into admin to get the points deduction this season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact is that John Utaka's salary is about £25,000 per week - this must be beyond dispute. However, he also has a 'gentleman's' agreement that £60,000 per week will be transferred from Story-Teller's offshore account to cover his 'image rights'. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
