Are we skint ?

[Toadhall Saint]

No Chairman should take a footballing decision.

Finance, personnel in fact everything but football decisions.

 

Nice quote FF and do not disagree but who's saying Cortese is?

[aintforever]

The truth is none of us know if we are skint or not, it is a bit worrying that the squad is worse than last years but I'm guessing Cortese didn't want to blow any serious money until the new manager came in and Adkins is assessing the squad (which is probably the wise thing to do at the moment).

[Windmill Arm 2]

they said from day one that the club would be self funding, that investment would be relative to the league we are in and they wouldn't throw cash at the project, this is fair enough, we have spent much more in the last year or so than any other club in this league, why people fail to grasp and think we should p*ss all Liebhers cash away is beyond me.

 

 

Yep, I'm sure some of the utter freaking morons who post their misinformed retarded bollix on here, would be happier if we just did a Pompey, and spunked all our cash up the wall, then bought shyte loads of talentless nearly deads on the never never............fecking ridiculous !!!!

[Surman4no7shirt]

We've spent more in the last 2 seasons than some prem clubs!! This team is more than capable than winning promotion. Why would they sped more money on the squad??

[docker-p]

Perhaps ML set out a structure for finances based on the league we're in. X million invested in players when in league one (maybe already spent), a further investment when in the championship to get into Premiership.

I doubt the funding has gone, but it may have gone until we get promotion.

[lordswoodsaints]

Or maybe its a sign that the club wanted an upcoming English manager, a succesful track record of two promotions from this league and who could grow with the club and work within the structure that is being set up. To suggest that we went for the cheap option is ridiculous, its not like in the PL when we constantly did this course, we are a L1 club and have attracted a successful young manager from the league above, the best we could hope or ask for. People need to get out of their heads that top flight players and managers are crawling over each other to join us and we can just wave a checkbook under their nose and get who we want.

 

I'm sticking with 'cheap option who will do a decent job on a budget'.

Inheritance Law

Under Swiss law, descendants, parents and spouses are statutory heirs. In absence of a will or inheritance contract, in principle the following applies:

 

The surviving spouse gets:

a) half of the estate if there are descendants of the deceased, or

b) three quarters of the estate if there are no descendants but parental heirs, or

c) if there are no parental heirs either, the full estate. Children always inherit in equal shares.

Statutory heirs are protected by the mandatory rules on statutory legal portions (also called forced heirship). This means that a person may not dispose of his entire estate at their discretion. Rather, their descendants, surviving parents and spouses are entitled to a portion of the estate by statutory law.

 

The statutory legal portions are based on the aforementioned statutory quotas which the statutory heirs will get if a person dies intestate. Descendants are entitled to three quarters of their statutory quota, and surviving parents and spouses each to one half of their respective statutory quota.

 

It is important to note that under Swiss law, the heirs acquire all assets and all liabilities of the deceased at the moment of death. The heirs form a simple partnership (Communauté héréditaire/Erbengemeinschaft) until the estate has been divided according to the applicable rules.

 

You may dispose of your estate either by will or by inheritance contract.

 

While the will consists of a disposition by the testator only, an inheritance contract is an agreement made by and among the testator and the statutory heirs and/or third persons.

 

Wills: The testator may either choose to:

i) write a holograph will (which needs to be entirely handwritten, signed and must include date and place), or

ii) obtain a will drawn up and certified by a notary.

In case of emergency, an oral will can be made before two witnesses.

Wills can be changed at any time. However, you should make sure to state that the new will replaces all prior dispositions made with regard to your estate.

 

Inheritance Contract: By concluding an inheritance contract, the testator may oblige themselves to bequeath their estate or a legacy to the other party (or a third party). It is also possible to conclude an inheritance contract in order to waive an inheritance. Inheritance contracts need to be certified by a notary.

 

So is that yes or no Ron?

[hackedoff]

We have spent more money than anyone else in this league but look where we are for it. Maybe the club/ Markus,s family are now thinking of wether it,s pudent chucking more money at it.

[sfc1971]

We paid compensation for Adkins didn't we?

 

When we could have got someone unemployed for nothing?

 

Phil Brown would certainly have been a 'name' we could have got for nothing, but Cortese obviously thinks Adkins has the ability and potential to be one of the best (and we doubled the wages he was getting to bring him here).

 

I don't think it's lack of money stopping us in the transfer market, I think it's more the lack of what we're looking for. (Not to mention we already have one of the best squads in the division and already bought 3 or 4 players this season.)

 

That answers the question as to why Cortese tried to get Adkins to walk away from Scunny then. As for Brown we simply could not afford him.

[trousers]

As for Brown we simply could not afford him.
