Interesting... When I saw the thread title, I thought 'what has Michael f**king Appleton got to say on this matter?' He's had as many clubs this season as we've had full time managers! WM

CCFCWay...top marks :claping hands: WM

No offence, but very wide of the mark. Most of our players are freebies or loans and wouldn't command fees...we're not going to lose our best players. And when clubs go into administration, the vultures don't circle like they do after relegation. I can't think of one club that's lost its better...

I really don't think we've fielded anyone illegibly. All players are registered with the FA and PFA so if they were to penalise us for 'illegible' players, they need to look at themselves in the mirror and their own procedures. We're fine from this point of view. Case closed, move on! WM

To be fair Tony, it does say 'Telegraph sources' so it's not definitve proof but I guess the point I was making that for one half of the Ricoh, you pay £4m to a charity and for the other, 10 times that amount to the council. I'm not too shabby at maths but even if I wasn't, I'd still be able...

Err...check my first post Tony. Albeit, it's in the Telegraph but it says that their share is up for grabs for £4m. WM

And I do hope the charity come out of all of this, not out of pocket. WM

So the Higgs would sell their half stake for £4m after putting in £6m and the council would sell their half for £40m after putting in £10m? And people say that CCFC/SISU are greedy robbing bar-stewards...

Apologies, you're indeed correct. Error on my part, it was Wilson I was on about, not Willis. :facepalm:

When the anti-SISU songs were going on, there was an older gent behind me shouting 'but we'll be more worse off...you're biting the hand that feeds you' etc. With polls on here, there seemed to be a larger % of people who can see the clubs position compared to the rates etc we're being charged...

How do you know this? Link?

...as it's up the road for me and now don't have any commitments today. Called the Pompey ticket office and the game is most definitely on. Taking a mate of mine who is a Brighton fan so it'll be an eye opener for him! Might see some of you later. WM

Well and truly....

As soon as I saw this, it reminded me of when I worked at SFC when this happened. We're defo gonna lose 10 points. The league will say that the two companies are something like inextricably linked so therefore a points deduction will apply.

The Spice Island opposite does nice food as well HH. Took the missus in there for dinner recently...really fresh fish. Just in case anyones hungry like......

Teams like Southampton had a Billionaire come in and take over and there was talk that it was to do with his company trying to win lucrative contracts within the Southampton area. Unless we have a billionare lined up, we're in a completely different situation.

I do get what you're saying and don't mean to belittle that comment but by what you're sayin, ACL won't negotiate further with our current owners yet might do with potential owners who currently sit in the figment of many peoples imaginations. That'll save the club....:whistle: WM

Just up the road so I might go. Money's tight though :( (maybe one of the players will get me two tickets like that Ipswich fella.....:whistle:). As for going out in Pompey...if you're making a night off it, head to GunWharf and stay clear of the Guildhall area.... WM

I've not dealt with CCC but have dealt with some local councils and some county councils and two city councils and I definitely concur! WM
