    mcpake gone for free!

    I think Hibs offered £100k but we would have to pay clauses in is contract and hae would have been due a signing on fee which is part of any un ask for transfer deal. By agreeing not to take a fee this allowed the £100 k to ease the deal through and we got rid of a player who did not want to...

    mcpake gone for free!

    So people are upset that a player who always looked unfit, off the pace and out of his depth, who did not want to stay, and wanted to move back to Scotland? No fee involved so we do to have to honor any contract clauses and the £100 k covers these. Good riddance to bad rubbish. PUSB

    Doomed

    Completely correct Gaz. When SISU took over we sold our soles the devil. The devil made a big mistake in thinking they can make money out of football. they either sell and get there money back or wind the whole thing up and kiss goodbye to £50 million! Between a rock and a hard place I wold...

    This George Duggins talks some truth doesnt he !

    I am no fan of SISU but someone is pumping £6M to keep us playing football. There is no magic fairy Hoffman has no backers willing to stump up £50 Million needed to clear debt let alone buy the stadium at a fair market price from ACL and invest £10 Million to get us a decent playing team. There...

    So what is SISU's plan now

    So we are all expecting SISU to just give up the huge sums loaned to the club and sell to the long queue of buyers forming outside the ground? Get real even a Euro lottery win would not do the trick. We have to live within our means and the only way to increase revenue is to keep unearthing...

    2011 Accounts over view

    The simple answer is it can't. It needs someone bigger than CCFC of Portsmouth to go to the wall and the idiots at Sky have just prevented that from happenning for another 3 years! I want Murdoch to throw the toys out of the pram and say in light of all the dross you have put me through with...

    2011 Accounts over view

    The £10 Million the Trust are hoping to raise won't even touch the sides will it? Assuming you could buy a share in the club it would be just making you liable for the debt should it ever be called in. If we assume SISU manage to buy a 50% share of ACL I can't see how the £3M or it makes a year...

    Losing £500k pcm???

    Don't forget TV revenue will drop significantly next year to around £1 Million from whatever it is currently (£7M rings a bell but can't be arsed to check). The wage bill has not fropped by anything like that amount. Factor in reduced reveue from Season Ticket Sales and projected lower...

    What do you want to see on SBT? (2012)

    HAving recently purchased an iPAD the mobile version could do with a spruce up. Navigating is not easy and I seem to have to constantly log back in which is a pain (but I guess cookies are a problem on mobile devices?) The Radio thing sounds a good idea but agree with Nick it requires a lot of...

    Why are we not breaking even

    Your player wages are light if it is true that Connor Thomas got £30K for his 1 month in the first team. Even if it was half this that is certainly more than £4K you estimate would give. I think our playing wage bill would be nearer £5.5 Million. This would fit with the statement from TF that...

    Should The FA Step In?

    Surely football should pay for itself and not be reliant on rich individuals to fund it? Seems to work in Germany! PUSB

    In Today's Football League Paper

    About spot on I think. It is not disrespectful to the past when revenues were higher (relatively) and overheads were lower and they owned the stadium! With gates what they are and have been it is about right unless you have the handy Billionaire in your phone book. PS I am a guy of nearly 50...

    I have an idea

    Whilst we are having blue sky thinking - how many season ticket holders would pay £1 per month - by direct debit? If we all did - say 9000 of us last year that would be the salary of 1 very very decent or 2 or 3 players at league 1 level. This way we would all become very minor stake holders in...

    Will the Ricoh work against us next season?

    How about closing seats at the front so we can sit in the dry?

    SISU threaten to liquidate the club

    With elections due in early May as well...........As council tax payers should we not be encouraging the council to chase all rent avoiders - like we should encourage HMRC to chase unpaid tax?

    League One

    Apparently the figures suggest relegation gives a 20% drop in attendances which would put it at nearer 10000 average. Trouble is we know Bigi Thomas and Clarke are being monitored by the big boys and I think they will be gone to a top Championship (Wolves for example) or a lower premiership...
