Looks to me like they're fucked. & folk think Gartside's a nobber. Righto!

Decent read, I cannot see a way out of it for Pompey.

He was the visionary who appointed Sammy Lee :good:

A bad manager, but we still have a club. Get over it.

Me too, they are billy bigtime cunts who talk down to us because they think they are a big club. Shut the door turn the lights off and get fucked.

Whats stopping them going into administration, taking the point deduction and starting a fresh next year?

 

Beats waiting for the drop to drop again.

something about they haven't got the assets to cover their football debts

 

i think this is the important point

 

football (plc) doesn't like that

 

its ok shafting the revenue, but thou shalt not fail to pay football creditors

 

at least thats how i understood the piece i listened to the other day

Twenty spots on Pompey to finish rock bottom at 7/1, bingo bango!

They have to have enough assets to pay the administrator's fees or no-one will take it on. (See Stockport County).

 

There seems to be so much in terms of unusual dealings that it would not be a simple administration. So I wouldn't expect a big queue.

 

Looking at the Kings Lynn case, the risk seems to be that the Revenue get the Winding Up petition and close it down.

 

Which means we would lose 3 points.

 

However, I think the bondholders will have a wip round to buy the Revenue off which is why they have presented the petition.

yes he took a gamble and it didn't work. He's also taken another risk with OC but the jury will not retake their seats on that one until we stay up/go down.

 

PG is an astute Chairman and runs the club within certain parameters. Anything outside those parameters would be financial suicide.

Correct, remember Portsmouth Fans may have FA cup but they may not have a Club to watch in the future.

They'll get out of it - if the club had any sense, it would be flogging players, paying off deadwood and possibly working a deal on the ground. If needs must (and presuming they own it), they should consider selling the ground and sharing until things pick up.

 

Once you're out of business (Newport springs to mind right now), that's it - falling a league or two is nothing in comparison.

To be fair, Southampton's not far to travel. Nice stadium, too. =@

The only assets they have are the players.

They own nothing else.

So they are supposed to owe ?11m to the taxman but they think they are due a small refund! Somebody cant add up :rofl:

 

Remember when under Big Sam we could of gambled and Gartside and the board said no thanks? Looks like they know what they are doing after all. For all the people who slag Gartside and the board it just proves how much of a good job theyve done keeping us afloat in the shark infested waters of the premiership.

That's all I need to say to anyone who thinks over spending is a great idea.

what site you seen this on?

pre season

 

i was gunna say, that like printing money now!

Let me get this right, the owe the IR&C ?11m but claim they are actually owed a refund. With harsh personal experience of that shower of fucking shite I know they get things very wrong but to the tune of multi millions can't be right.

They don't own their own ground so have nothing but their playing staff as assets? Why the frig would anyone touch the club with a barge pole, never mind two nobbers in quick succession?

How did they ever get the investment in the first place to get into so much debt?
