Brussels Saint Posted 26 January, 2010 Share Posted 26 January, 2010 If they are paying Utaka £80k a week as reported , and bearing in mind that a year or 2 ago their wage bill was reported as being the 4th highest in the premiership, I doubt that £1.6million will even cover a month's wages. £1.6 million for a month is approx £400k a week = only 5 Utakas. Or to put it another way, squad of 40(?), £1.6 million a month = average wage of 'only' £10k a week, and they are clearly paying way above that. And that ignores all other monthly costs such as Storrie's £2 million a year salary, interest on all those 'short term loans', etc. Which of course is both how they 'bought' the FA cup and stayed in the premiership, and also why they are skint. K. I'm pretty sure I read they need to find 3 million each month to pay the players. ........... That's quite a lot........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pfc123 Posted 26 January, 2010 Share Posted 26 January, 2010 The whole English Premier League is sick The majority of players on the park are Foreign, a lot of Managers are Foreign, and a lot of Clubs are Foreign owned, mainly by people that use the Football Club to launder debts etc. ( just ask Liverpool and Man Utd ) As I've said before, the easiest job in Football is to manage the England Team, because there are not that many ENGLISH players to chose from in the Premier League, and the situation will only get worse RIP ENGLISH Football IMHO and your english owner is.......?

Bobbyboy Posted 26 January, 2010 Share Posted 26 January, 2010 Just heard their transfer embargo lifted (BBC sport website headline, no link yet). Bummer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Le God Posted 26 January, 2010 Share Posted 26 January, 2010 Just heard their transfer embargo lifted (BBC sport website headline, no link yet). Bummer. Will just mean that they can now sell players and replace them with cheaper ones. Kaboul and Belhadj can be sold and they will loan in a cheap replacement to keep the numbers up.

sussexsaint Posted 26 January, 2010 Share Posted 26 January, 2010 Ah I didn't get that the transfer embargo meant they couldn't sell - perhaps they have been allowed to have it lifted so that they can raise funds then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have thought paying £5 to join a forum where you are certain to suffer a certain amount of (friendly) abuse could only be described as masochism. Still as C P Snow's character Lewis Elliot used to say, forget you're tired, forget you don't want to, just be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derry Posted 26 January, 2010 Share Posted 26 January, 2010 They will only be allowed to sign loans or free transfers, so it looks like it is only a conditional lifting of the embargo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingsland Red Posted 26 January, 2010 Share Posted 26 January, 2010 (edited) With the embargo lifted it would be a foolish club CEO allowing his club to sell players to Pompey without getting the full payment before the HMRC winding up order.The Udinese experience must have warned the wider world about their cashflow, or lack of. EDIT: Embargo is partially lifted - they can only sign free transfers and loans which intimates that the EPL dont trust them !

lumpofshipperley Posted 26 January, 2010 Share Posted 26 January, 2010 They are probably worse off than we were. The banks pulled the plug when they knew our cash flow was poor and at the height of the financial problems. They've been pulled with reasonable cash flows and not a real clue as to why.

Matthew Le God Posted 28 January, 2010 Share Posted 28 January, 2010 (edited) The official Pompey website isn't working. Rumour has it that they haven't paid the company that runs it so they have taken it down. http://www.fansonline.net/portsmouth/article.php?id=1295 Official site = http://www.portsmouthfc.co.uk/ Also it is now three different parties on the winding order, so not just HMRC.

JRM Posted 28 January, 2010 Share Posted 28 January, 2010 Just confirmed on SSN. They haven't paid the company that runs it! Can someone email / text SSN and ask them how the f*ck can they not have a transfer embargo anymore? Disgrace to football.

Blandford saint Posted 28 January, 2010 Share Posted 28 January, 2010 Beats me how they can sign loan players but Bournemouth aren't allowed. Bournemouth have paid up their tax bill and reckon they will be debt -free in the summer. Obviously Premier League clubs operate under less restrictive rules.
