There are some players clearly not fit ......... but largely they are the players who did not get a full pre season in due to injury, not being here, or been injured since the start of the season. However the lack of fitness in the most part is not physical it is mental. We have a bunch of...

They are using the system ...... we would do the same i would guess. Until the league and FA really address the football finance problem then it will continue to happen. Also while clubs merrily blame every one and everything else for their predicament then it will keep happening football...

agreed but thats the situation they have to live with, the risk they take. but they could bring in loans etc because there would appear to be room in the league wage budget without making huge losses and in theory league success should increase income. You take your choice where you take your...

I also think that we under estimate just how good a job is being done by some of the less fashionable clubs. We have got in the habit of spending our way out of things (it hasnt worked like many other teams) rather than tackling the root causes. These so called lesser teams work to their...

thats why i said "right now" and "that it is where you finish that counts" .......... yes they could be relegated but then again so could we. I was careful in what i said and right now they are 15 points above us on 1/3rd of the finances ........ or nearly halfway to survival in League 1 after 9...

Top of the division 3 points clear, top goal scorers so far, joint best defence in the division, goal difference of 17 (next best is 8 Notts County) whats the secret of the current success. Yes I know that it is where you finish that matters but after 9 games they have momentum and seemingly...

I think for me its the fact that they keep doing it....... keep ripping the taxman and small businesses off and seemingly do not see any wrong in it. They are not the only ones - we have been not averse to ripping folk off in the past. Pompey however, with the exception of Rangers, are the most...

Although i can see the point that without the fences things may been better, and that fences were erected because of football crowd disturbances I really cannot attribute the blame for 96 deaths to a set of fences and in general a few idiots that throw their handbags at each other. Clearly...

"how big a club are we?" well on the basis of that meaning right now not very. You can use attendance figures but ask any number cruncher - you can make figures say anything you like if you choose the right ones. To me you have to look at the whole package and at the current state of things we...

cant think of much that that you wouldnt regard as more important than keys view to be honest @rich87 :whistle: says very little that is meaningful

keys might be in the know as to what hoffman is doing but he nor GH are in the know about CCFC/SISU/TF are doing .......... because they are not talking to him all keys really knows is tittle tattle ........... gh cant tell him about the finances or deals because right now he just isnt involved

I didnt go ......... and i dont like getting beat 6:1 ........ but i am inclined from the radio reports, comments here etc to take a positive spin from it. Had we lost in the cup 6:1 to a League 1 or even championship side i would feel differently. Arsenal as a squad are playing well, their team...

Don dont you think that CCFC/SISU or the charity would announce a deal ? They have signed a heads of agreement, which is that they have agreed in principle but nothing has been signed in detail. Things like timing of payments, guarantees etc need to be agreed and checked before a deal is signed...

the plan has to match the circumstances though doesnt it ........ SISU did not buy into the project to make £7m and £8m losses each year. It is ok saying we could have this player or that ........... sooner rather than later the money was going to run out. The plan was not affordable. We made...

I dont have a problem with the club owning it so long as ........... 1) SISU or any other owner do not secure loans against it other than for stadium improvements 2) that the club doesnt run at a loss neither are likely to happen in the hands of any private owner

not defending Igwe but i would be interested to know when exactly he stopped being involved in the finances at CCFC...... i have a feeling it is a lot longer time ago than folk think, probably at least when TF got appointed. Lot of claims but really just recycled hearsay By May 2008 we had...

could it be that Robins was actually the choice TF and SW wanted ...... and the stuff about Ince is just hearsay?

so did keys get it right or wrong again ?......... seems the search going on didnt take long!

Just a small point ......... ACL who run the stadium make £500k per year ......... just exactly how is that going to save us when we are running at £250k losses per month If we are running at 9000 fans per game say on average 3000 purchase food etc in the stadium (not the posh seats) and spend...

hard to include any "caretaker" manager in any stats. By the nature of the appointment a caretaker just keeps things ticking along until a proper appointment is made. A caretaker manager is not in a position to fundamentally change a squad, he may tinker with the system or style but the real...
