At least were in it to get hurt, unlike your mob who aren't and have only been in it once. That must hurt.

On this occasion we are very happy to go into admin, not just because we were facing a winding up petition on Monday, but becaue we can now clear the toxic administrator Andronikou out of the club (Trevor Birchbwas appointed) and also, because the judge started to question the debenture of our previous "owner" Balram Chanrai. Our debt is tiny in footy terms (?4m) so this administration should be hugely beneficial to the club.


What has been going on in Pompey has been has been criminal and all down to Chanrai, who alleges he loaned ?17m to the club and uses this to be the main secured creditor, despite him having no evidence of the loan. This is the man that tried to pocket personally the money from the sale of Kaboul and who also failed to pay local charities money raised by the club on match days, presumably trouser ing this too.


So not so much of a sad day for us yesterday. Hopefully the start of something positive!

Are you being serious here? All relegation would do, is punish the fans, and none of this is their fault.

The thing is, this administration has nothing to do with unsustainable borrowing. Like I said, you need to be armed with the full facts. The football league are, hence their decision to only deduct ten points. The judge was also, hence his decision to bar Urnst, Hacker, Young as being the Administrators.


We have the smallest squad in the championship. Don't really say how we can be said to have borrowed irresponsibly. Money has been stolen from the club, systematically by one man over three years. Hence, no funds.


Honestly, someone should write a book about the corruption that has gone on at Pompey in the last 2 years. Starting with the "owner" the club had that never existed, but who still mangaged to pass the FA's fit and proper person test.

Could not agree more. Rangers were effectively using the government's money to fund player acquisitions and salaries over the last ten years. Rangers fans then suggest if Celtic win the title this year it will be tarnished. Neil Lennon suggested they turn the spotlight on themselves.

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      By Dulwich dweller · Posted

      It worked. Corbyn did similar although not to the same degree. Momentum had a purge too when Corbyn got in. All his political life he opposed the EU but when it came to the crunch he publicly backed them during the referendum. I believe that was to appease the middle classes that he was appealing to. He messed up big time when wooing the middle classes at Glastonbury whilst ignoring his core working class voters up north. They also happened to be leave voters. He got starstruck and forgot about his politics. Corbynmania was thing, a movement but it was also the making of his downfall. For the many and not the few came back and slapped him right in the face.

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By Dulwich dweller · Posted

      Nothing to do with the tories overspending whatsoever eh! Blame the last 10/11 years of blatant mismanagement, incompetence and willful deceit on the poor bastards that were left with the fall out of a complete car crash tory government.   One PM after another falling on their sword. Open corruption and piss taking throughout covid and a legacy of huge debt and destruction yet in your view it will be labour's 4 years in power that bankrupts us in 2029.  Another one that must think people are blind and stupid.  Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃

      Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....

      Rude Evri delivery in SE22

      By ak0910 · Posted

      Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded
