O/T: Portsmouth

It sounds like Portsmouth's takeover trials are coming to an end. The Football League has declined to approve Balram Chainrai's bid.

Now Pompey's administrators (the accountants PKF) are expected to resume discussions next week with the Pompey Supporters Trust, over the fans proposal to take the club over.

I feel we can all wish them luck - and that this long-running farce is near an end.

Sounds as if they still have a long way to go before they get out of the mire

 

This seems like a good place to remember where we might be,without the Allams.

 

Every club's money/ownership problems remind me of that.

 

It is a shame that a club with so much history and believe it or not they have quite a bit, should come to this. Lesser clubs of the past have past away, Bradford P.A. Accrington Stanley but were all there at the beginning or near enough to what we now know as our Premier, Championship leagues, I for one wish them well, to say the obvious, we have been there, got the T shirt etc etc.

 

Pompey still well in the brown stuff.

 

Good post Tickles. Insightful,intelligent,thought provoking and inspirational.

 

Pretty accurate though.
