Midfield_General Posted 12 March, 2012 Share Posted 12 March, 2012 Wonder how much it costs to "buy" a table at the awards? When we don't appear to have money problems and we buy 1 table yet they buy 2 in their situation? A table at an awards ceremony like that is usually about £150 per person or £1,000 for a full table. Two tables = two grand. I doubt they drank water all night, so you can chuck in another grand on premium priced booze for twenty people. So that's three grand of the St John's Ambulance's money they've spunked on a jolly fun p*ss up. Stay classy lads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This Charming Man Posted 12 March, 2012 Share Posted 12 March, 2012 Fair play to Sibley. Only saying what everyone else is thinking about that tinpot, joke of a football club. What makes me laugh is the Skates are getting wound up about that comment because it came from a club official. They seem to be forgetting their club officials in the past have done things like; steal from charities, money laundering, asset stripping and arms dealing. Lovely bunch.

BARCELONASAINT Posted 12 March, 2012 Share Posted 12 March, 2012 Oh the irony of Portsmouth complaining about some honest factual remarks.

Sour Mash Posted 12 March, 2012 Share Posted 12 March, 2012 I'm not Sibley's biggest fan, but fair play to him, no problem with what he "tweeted". Typical Skates winge about how hard done by they always are, Sibley could have written a lot worse than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Under Weststand Posted 12 March, 2012 Share Posted 12 March, 2012 Typical over the top reaction to a little tongue in cheek dig, about the less than humorous events down the road. All Sibley has done is said what everyone else was probably thinking about them getting the Family club award. And for them to even be nominated for the Community award is quite staggering, as all they do is rip the community off. Why don't they just grow a pair & suck it up. They were great at giving it out, but not so happy to take the banter when its going the other way. #WTFILN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minty Posted 12 March, 2012 Share Posted 12 March, 2012 At worst, it was perhaps unnecessary, and I too have criticised Sibley in the past for some things he's tweeted, but ultimately it is his opinion on his personal account, and you can't escape the fact that the way he viewed and interpreted it is the same way just about every other fan in the country (outside of Portsmouth) will have viewed it. What I find the most ironic is the Pompey News journalist criticising it when he has exactly the same 'Views are my own' in his twitter profile... why does he use the term if he clearly has no regard for it and ignores it when it suits him?

shurlock Posted 12 March, 2012 Share Posted 12 March, 2012 He's the Club's press officer FFS. What would you rather? STFU and have no communication coming out of the club? Exactly, he should do his job which is to STFU unless he's told to speak. He should be breaking team news/imminent OS announcements via the official club twitter, not on his personal account as he currently does. Club news is not the jumped up, little toss*r's plaything.

He does a fair bit of club biz on his personal account instead of the official twitter - most stuff gets broken on his account before it appears on the official account and sometimes it doesnt even appear there at all. As to the toss*r remark, just repeating a mate who was in hospitality for the Walsall game and bumped into him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chez Posted 12 March, 2012 Share Posted 12 March, 2012 (edited) Poor decision by Sibley IMO. He really shouldn't be commenting on our friends down the M27. It lacks class. His twitter page might say opinions are his own, but he is well known as being the mouthpiece of the club and any view his puts out via his own twitter account reflects on the club. With that kind of role there is no clear separation between the view of the club and his own views. Within your own spere of business would you make comments about your competitor on twitter? Would you be allowed to? Storm in a teacup. Edited 12 March, 2012 by Chez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
