Ah you see, now this is a classic case of me not keeping my gob shut when trying to be funny about something i didn't actually check the details of. In the internet world i think it's called an "Epic Fail." (An internetism i hate for the record.)

Gosh, that must have come as a huge shock to all involved. It's like one of those low-grade slasher movies where the two remaining frantic teens finally reach the house on the hill, their friends having all been slaughtered by the mysterious figure in the hockey mask/stripey jumper/whatever on the way to this supposed sanctuary, they ring the doorbell, and the door is opened by .... the mysterious figure in the hockey mask/stripey jumper/whatever. Poor old Pompey - Andronikou must be ever so proud

Official now - no new players till Jan then (although Andronikou, predictably, claims otherwise - another wholly unfounded promise to add to all the others, eh, Andy?)

Not entirely true Paul.The football league won't let them start the season with less than 20 players so they will be allowed special permision for some signings.

I know that, but they have more than 20 players already. What AA is trying to do is to claim youth/reserve players don't count. Whereas the experience of Bournemouth shows that the FL think they do in these circumstances. He either knows this and is just trying it on so he play the martyr when what he knows perfectly well will happen does indeed happen or he's even more slapdash than he seems

Ha, ha that's brilliant.

"We'll be OK, I'll rescue us with my magic CVA wand"
"It'll all be fine, HMRC won't challenge the CVA"
"I have a great working relationship with HMRC"
"HMRC won't return my calls"
"Come on then try it and we'll take you to the fucking cleaners"

Pompey fans must be getting dizzy trying to keep up with the amount of shite this man spouts

Ooooh, "material irregularities" in the CVA vote forms the crux of the appeal. That doesn't sound career-enhancing for our favourite insolvency practitioner, if proved of course

This is exactly what happened with Leeds. In the end Leeds didn't bother with the CVA, and took the 15 points punishment...then tried to have the penalty overturned.

The difference this time though is that Leeds did not get away with it so no other club would and would under most circumstances mean relegation again - I wonder if Cotterill is still happy he took the job
