If the PST are succesful then I can see us having 10000+ STH. We just have to wait and see.

PST won't be successful, their bid was doomed failure from the start. How successful do you think they will be in collecting the remaining £900 quickly from each person? £900 plus season ticket money is a lot for people and not everyone will pay the £900.

Plus how will the PST fund the club going into the future? It simply doesn't have the resources available and the infighting over which direction to take will rip the club apart again.
 
Personally I am horrified that yet more Portsmouth children will be subjected to this clear & very public form of abuse by being forced to watch PFC play.

Think I'll change my electricity supplier from npower following this decision. I don't think its right a percentage of the money I've paid to that company has now been given to a business that is financially & morally bankrupt.

Pop quiz: Why are Southampton known as the Saints? Because (some of) their fans have a holier-than-thou attitude.
 
It has nothing to do with being family club of the year. Basically N-power ran two competitions on Twitter and Facebook. Well, it was two strands of the same competition. This competition was called Fan Power or something like that. Essentially fans would first claim their seat at the 'Fan Power Stadium' by liking a particular page or adding an app (I'm not 100% sure as I didn't do it) and £10,000 went to the club that got the highest number of fans claiming their seat as a proportion to last season's average attendance for that club. Then fans were to 'make noise' by Tweeting about their team and the fans that Tweeted the most won £20,000 for their team.

But that's surely unfair, you guys would only need about six fans to sign up. :wink:

Very few have pulled out of their own pledge. And the PST have accounted for a % of people not paying the extra £900. There is also several payment plans including over 3 years and a discounted ST if the bid is successful.

The PST will be reliant the club having more coming in than going out and obviously gate money. Pretty simple really. The overall plan is to get the club self sustaining and attractive to other investment with fans included with other investors. Getting to the "promised land" isn't a priority.
 
I hope the fans do win control, but it does look like they would need the players to basically give up the money they are entitled to. Which they have no reason to do given the bid from Chanrai.

And its 100% based upon the parachute payments the club "earned" by cheating & not paying its taxes or debts in the first place. That's the truth of the matter.

Think it's madness that pompey fans are putting in so much effort to save a club that is so utterly bankrupt in every sense of the word. You'll never be free of the legacy debt by taking over the current mess. You'll be back in trouble within a year, I guarantee it.

Much better to start a phoenix club and let the current one be liquidated.
