    England v Sweden Matchday thread

    Good shout. Milner can run all day so can do some of the chasing and harrying, hes not looked the most creative of wide men in the tournament !!!! Id even be tempted to switch milner and gerrard during the match, give gerrard a free role coming in from the right, he also delivers a better ball

    Rangers

    Not strictly true, if they do TUPE Transfer over the new company would have to still pay to get rid of them. Not 100% sure if they will automatically transfer over though. I don't think it's as straight forward as standard employment situations. I bet a few agent will try to claim contracts are...

    Staff Redundancies

    They'll probably blame the council/acl for not reducing the rent or giving them the stadium. Whilst I accept we have no option but sisu at present (all the people telling them to f*ck off, there's currently no alternative) they have taken little or no responsibility for the current predicament...

    Success next season hinges on.........

    Bumped into Keogh in Birmingham on saturday night. Seemed a decent, genuine bloke. He said hes happy to stay, still got a year left on his contract and isnt looking to move. Not sure if itll be his choice ultimately but good to hear him at least wanting to be around next year

    England approach Roy Hodgson

    haha, the way we've performed at major tournaments (under Capello) and qualifying (under McClaren) we are a small nation ! Like with all these things people have to go into it with an open mind. Rednapp couldve been the man manager/motivator to spur us to glory or he couldve been another...

    Hoffman made another bid

    Fisher will be out of a job if he doesn't secure a future for the Club ! Seems sensible enough but ultimately its not his call !

    Hoffman made another bid

    Shares aren't worth any more than £1 as the club is insolvent. It all depends what he's willing to offer sisu in respect of their loan that will be the sticking point. Sisu had exactly the same negotiating stance when they picked up the club for next to nothing. As someone mentioned sisu may...

    This deserves its own thread Old Sky Blue

    They're not stupid that's for certain (apart from investing in a football club in the first place !!!!) Still think they could/should have secured their position a lot earlier and the debenture isnt currently worth much (unless left unchallenged). None of this fills me with much confidence though !

    This deserves its own thread Old Sky Blue

    I'm suggesting as a substantial unsecured creditor they would challenge the debenture if arvo claimed it was valid. In my opinion it wouldn't be apart from over new investment in the club.

    This deserves its own thread Old Sky Blue

    Agreed. But very much challengeable. Not sure how longs left of Lease but acl have a large contingent creditor claim and should/would be all over this. Don't disagree that this might be the plan though

    This deserves its own thread Old Sky Blue

    All interesting stuff. Fact is a debenture can only secure new monies invested. I'm surprised sisu didn't have a debenture from day one, I would've if I was investing millions into something. Strange they have suddenly done this now as in my eyes all the historical cash wouldn't be secured...

    It has to be said ...

    Everyone is going to learn in the job. Sure AT made some poor choices earlier in the season but if he's making better ones now great. Doesn't matter who was right or wrong lets just keep supporting the lads and hope they can squeeze out of this mess !!!!

    Proper supporters fighting for their club

    Havent read all 13 pages but selling Samba at £9m-£12m isnt bad business in my eyes. He obviously wanted to go so getting that price is a good deal. I think the football world appreciates that a majority of clubs are selling clubs so its just about ensuring you get a decent price when someone...

    Cody Macdonald may return Saturday

    I still reckon hes a proper goalscorer and if he is fully fit, gets his confidence back and gets the chances he'll put them away. Over the years we havent often had many decent goalscorers, Mick Quinn was the last one that scored a lot for the club (Aloisi was another but never really got a...

    And What About This McDonald Bloke ?

    I wouldve agreed a week ago, however, with the pompey situation and our win the other night we're at least in with a shout. A 3 month loan of a half decent striker would cost around £150k in wages (if no loan fee is payable) Surely worth the punt. The club is more saleable if its in the...

    Alex Nimely

    And for all the stick ATs had, fair play to him for picking this lad up and having faith after a poor loan at boro. Quite a few questioned the signing (not least the boro fans !) but he does look some player !

    Portsmouth- what on earth

    Not sure if it was on here or I read it somewhere else but someone said it could be up to 25 points. Would be nice :p Even taking away some Sky Blue bias they deserve everything they get. They have still got players on big money (Kitson, Lawrance, Ben Haim, Mullins etc who must be on £10-15k...

    Phone in - Waggotts interview

    Its tight but they probably still made a bit of a loss. A lot of the transfer cash wont come in stright away. Pretty sure I saw our wage bill is somewhere in the region of £7m (is that correct ?). Rent is at least £1m. So even if we are getting £5m in gate receipts (which is probably overstated)...
