    Unless a deal can be done today by 5pm!

    Also AA has Sao the cash flow at the club remains a grave situation especially for the shirt term.

    Info have just seen on Twitter @solentsport

    This is a complete joke now! This is ridiculous!

    Now you're getting it, Rickie! Another day, in the hurly burly world of PFC.
    Something else will come along by tomorrow, I daresay.

    I'm shocked at the way AA has handled this over the past few months and previously a couple of years ago!

    He is a joke!

    Seems to be looking for the quick way out rather than a stable way out <doh>

    I could be wrong, but I think AA works for the benefit of Chanrai - I'm pretty certain it was Chan who appointed him last time when he put the club into admin and from what I've read I understand that Chanrai had something to do with putting CSI into admin because of the purchase payments due to him and the threat of the business going under due to the seizure of Antonovs assets by the Lithuanian government.

    If he is working for Chanrai then he will be looking for the best and quickest result for the one who employs him rather than the best result for the business.

    A "little bird" told me last night that a consortium (Munich based ?!) had just pulled out of the purchase of the club. Apparently, all agreed with buying PFC, including paying off debts,etc., BUT, Gaydamak wouldn't sell them the land around the ground, so they would not proceed without the additional land. <grr>

    I'm honestly really disappointed.

    I know I'm a Saints fan but I'm a keen football fan in general and what is happening is very wrong!

    I read that as well Wooperts, but with a bit of a question mark over the truth of it. Sounds somewhat plausible though.

    Chan probably needs to lower his demands and accept a loss on his loans to the club. Cala has now threatened to pull out if the deal isn't done by tonight - apparently he has to find more money, but he hasn't yet passed the F&PPT anyway.

    Did anyone read the article this week in the Guardian about the Swiss club that is owned by a Chechen business?man which has been expelled from the Swiss league due to allegedly fraudulent letters from an American bank?

    But Pompey need money fast.

    Short term doesn't look good, that is what AA said!

    So in some ways the problems just continue.

    Admittedly though you have dodged a bullet so well done for that <ok>

    Well I am going to throw my hat in the ring as new owner. I build self heating swimming pool complexes on the planet Mars from which I have made a small fortune and will expect full media copverage in both the Snooze and the Sun............<whistle>

    No no no, We'd get Fred Flinstone's boss, Mr Slate. The ideal Boss, with the ideal surname, considering our method of payment.
