Antonov not included in their 'structure' either. Fecking tinpot outfit, wonder why they bought the skates.....

Damn you Gemmel, I'll make you pay for this.

 

 

Well he was on Monday, it must have been changed..... complete mystery why, as Phil mentioned though, plenty of cached pages out there.

This thread still g....

 

 

 

 

No, I'll get me coat......:facepalm:

 

 

I think you can see why mate!

 

God knows how this one will turn out for you guys but with your owner wanted by Interpol to face charges of fraud, embezzlement and money laundering, it really does not look good!

 

But for us of course....;)

Hi Mero - Any clues as to how Lampitt is reacting to all of this?

 

He's hiding in the toilet.... Oh.

 

With one last guffaw I dash off to footie training, eagerly awaiting my tired return for a further update and to cache a few pages. Perhaps we should task someone with doing that and putting them all togetherso we can refer easily top all the changes at some later stage..

Does go someway to explaining why new toilets were top of the priority list at Nottarf Krap - must be stretched to capacity with all the brown stuff that must be flowing down there. :lol::lol:

The fa cannot gaze into the future. Of Antonov had done nothing illegal when he 'bought' Pompey then what could they have done?

 

They could have delved just one stage deeper when assessing CSI and the individuals behind it. One little trip to Google would unearth how Antonov's own bank was refused a UK licence by the Financial Services Authority.

 

It isn't rocket science - given the experience of the FA, and especially PFC's recent history you'd think they would have made the extra effort. If there was reasonable doubt about the companies he was linked to (or owned) the FA should have raised it.

 

They didn't. Now they are possibly about to reap what they sow.

 

Just compare it to the whole Micky Fialka story over us - within hours of him appearing on SSN it was clear he wasn't quite...errr..the right person for us.

Hypo, it was well known that the FSA refused his bank a licence to operate in this country because of concerns on money laundering and not being transparent enough. If the FSA said "no", surely that should have been good enough for the FA. However, I get the feeling that they are rightly trying to keep a club alive and kicking and the only option might well have been CSI. They must have been amazed that anyone did come forward. With "their" man in place, maybe they thought that they could control it, cos God only knows why else Lampitt is there. Why would he choose to give up a job at the FA?

Not seen the news or internet all day and just logged in to see this development - massive lol. Who knows, by December 18th the "Pompey going down with no money in the bank" song could get another airing.

 

This thread (and the occasional resurrection of the statue thread) makes me just that little bit happier to be alive.

dammit, something else we should have noted at the start of this latest chapter, how many lurkers have been sneaking in on here.

 

So what next peeps?

 

We've been abused and trolled, we're nutjobs.

 

BUT, one thing won't ever get taken away from us as they come round with the concrete boots to take us away.

 

We've pretty much called it right all down the line.

 

Take a bow gang

 

And back to work

 

Now, where was that post from one of the few about how Saif Gaddafi would have been a FAPP?

Underneath the lolage, I think the really BIG story that we have broken on here today is actually the link between the external consultant for the FAPP and CSI.

 

Any self respecting investigative Journo will see that link raises "questions" that cannot be put down to rival fans stirring up dirt to embarrass their neighbours.

 

On it's own it would have meant nothing, but add that to the FSA issue, the widely reported rumamafia and THEN the arrest warrant for Fraud, then THAT becomes a stick to create an article, THAT gets this mess back into the public eye.

 

now BTF - did you remember to ask David to see if he could find out what happened to the Forensic Accounts?

Out of interest has Antonov handed himself in yet. The warrant has been out for a while now, so would have thought that he would have handed himself in so that he can clear his name, presuming of course that he is innocent!!!

 

Took a while to find Mr Bout. I'll have a look round over NYE while on hols

 

Who have we got in Cyprus? Wasn't there a link to one of thebanks over there?

 

Do we know anyone who works in Air Traffic and could access passenger manifests? Oh no of course not we're nutjobs not detectives. Back to the beer it is then

How long before Antonov's lawyers play the 'human rights' card - surrendering himself to Lithuanian authorities would 'endanger his life' etc etc. Is the next move to seize the 'assets' owned by Vlad?

 

Poor old Appy - better get on the phone to Roy and see if he can get his old job back.

Phil's right, my eyebrows were raised at the thought that a man advising the football authorities on how to stop dodgy people buying clubs was also advising dodgy people on buying clubs.:o

In fact that was enough for me in one day, and then...the bombshell.

 

Vlad's biggest mistake was not using Storrie's shredder and trying to stuff the evidence down the Fratton Park toilet before fixing that flush, he must have left a right old trail, I wonder where it leads.

 

The only way it could get funnier now is if he refuses to respect the warrant and we are treated to pictures of him being bundled away like a mass murderer sometime soon.

And his history would suggest he is way too important for that warrant and will ignore it.

 

Cue re-writing of pompey management structure and future planning asap, Lampitt to spin something positive, 'Vlad was a minor part of what we are doing....with his majority stake....'

 

I saw someone online feeling sorry for Appleton, a man who took a cut price job that no one else wanted at a club drowning under the weight of unresolved legal and financial issues.

 

I'm not surprised, and nor should he be, the job was unwanted when Cotterill baled out.

We all knew that Vlad was looking to clean money, even the thick ones on here, so we aren't being smug, it was bleeding obvious.

 

I reckon the CVA is in proper trouble now, this must have a konck on effect for funding, time for AA to come in and delay again, followed by moaning creditors who voted for their own shafting.

Tis all very predictable.

 

But the golden moment of my day was sitting down at 6pm and listening to Fred explain how the owner of his favourite football club is as we all suspected, nothing more than a criminal on the run.

 

We are so lucky, this thread has been so much funnier than we deserve - so a special hello to all my fellow pants-wetting, toast-mongers who are sadly still banging on about this boring situation when the thread should be closed. :D

 

It still has legs, in fact it's just sprouted wings and an outboard.

Now, wasn't THAT moment so much better than them being Toast straight away?

 

Termination was way too good for them. Not for the REAL fans, but for the cesspit the club had become. Hell, AFCP could have been challenge for promotion from the BSQ this year over at their nice ground in Havant. But oh no they just HAD to keep rolling out the laughs.

 

A day of frantic internet equivalent of shredding, bless.

 

This thread really does read like some Stephen King Novel if you are a member of the few but right now it's become a Star Trek Sequel

 

The Search for Spock becomes The Search for Vlad

What if it turned up that Antonov were operating in the UK, under the nose of the FSA after all? How would that play out? Step forward Convers Money!

 

https://www.conversmoney.com/aboutus

 

Note the registered office, and compare it with the address listed for CSI: http://companycheck.co.uk/company/07375628

 

A little bit of googling of Convers Money brings up... oh look at that, it's the WFB site!

 

http://www.wfblondon.co.uk/convers-money/

 

What's that you say? It's another one of those dead links that have suddenly started sprouting up? Google cache time it is then (dated from last Thursday)...

WFB London together with Convers Group which has control over major Lithuanian Bank SNORAS and oldest Latvian bank “Latvijas Krajbanka” – successfully launched payday loans under new brand “Convers Money “ (http://www.conversmoney.com)

 

Mr Antonov added: ”We will continue to develop and not going to stop now, actually we have already

started working on other financial projects which will expand our distribution outside UK

 

So, Convers Goup has control over Snoras? And Convers Group has (with WFB) launched Convers Money in the UK? And it's the work of "Mr Antonov"? But Snoras and Antonov are barred from UK aren't they?

 

http://www.baltictimes.com/news/articles/22305/

 

Anyone on here got the FSA's number?

 

 

 

 

Oh, and as an aside... for those worried about preserving pages associating Antonov with CSI, have no fear. Whenever anything is published on the internet, it is likely there for all eternity. No matter how much you might try to suppress it, you cannot take it back, for the world wide web will carry its indelible mark long after you're gone.

This thread should be used as a teaching aid to all media students to highlight how citizen media can identify and keep track of fraudulent individuals and corporations,we have had the Arab Spring is this the begining of the POMSKI Winter.As for locking it? No Chance! it is a constantly evolving database of evidence that points to Incompetence and/or Corruption within English Football at the highest level.The British taxpayer deserves answers,over to you Mr Lampitt.

While I can appreciate your thinking, you're both wrong on a few points. First, the FA has nothing to do with governance of clubs - that responsibility lies with the Premier League and the Football League. It's a relatively minor point, though it does mean that hints of collusion because of Lampitt's presence are well wide of the mark. The main thing is what is needed to pass the F&PPT; and the answer is really very little, be it the Prem's version or the FL's. If a prospective owner has no criminal convictions or arrest warrants against him, then he's pretty much in the clear. Doubts about that person are irrelevant; only facts are counted. So the FSA thought that Antonov's bank was badly run? Hardly a criminal conviction, and anyway the FSA were judging a bank, not an individual. So while it's easy to say that the FL should have acted differently in this instance, the fact is that they had no basis within their own rules on which to do so.

 

As for Micky Fialka, he'd have passed the FL's test at the time, no bother (unless of course he has a criminal record that we don't know about!). Yes, he'd have been a disaster, but that wasn't the FL's concern. The current test has more to it, in particular that prospective owners should be able to give proof of sufficient funds; hard to see Fialka getting past that one! ;)

 

All of which goes to show that the all-new F&PPT is hardly any improvement on its predecessor. If the authorities really want to get things cleaner, they need to be a hell of a lot tougher - not easy when you've spent so long being so lax. But, given that they hold the ultimate say in whether or not a club is allowed to compete in their competition, it's scarcely something that couldn't be done if they really wanted to.

I have to say a big well done to all who have kept this thread going, for all the times I've thought it was just drifting into oblivion. When in fact its are fishy friends stink pot & cesspit of a club that is heading for oblivion. Looks more and more that the FA & the FL have questions to answer especially over their unfit & un-proper persons test! why was Lampitt put into the cesspit? was it to try to help the cover up? Looks more & more like it, I've always thought it was a strange decision to go there from a cushy job at the FA.
