    Yep, that's how I see/saw it. Hence why I suggested Mandaric might be a good friend next..!

    Good morning Saints Alive - I humbly bow to the facts you have stated, although I am sure you will understand the confusion - especially mine!
    We at least share an overwhelming passion for Southampton Football Club!

    Spot On !! Markus L had the money & a passion to get into football & thank god (or whoever) it was SFC. In his short tenure, he came to love us & together with Nicola C we got an owner & a financial management team that is taking us places. The key tho is SFC, was an attractive financial proposition (& begrudgingly I'll have to give R Lowe some praise there) as we had a fantastic ground, perfectly set infrastructure, superb fan base with greater potential & yes, at a knock down price! whereas PFC never have been. Old tiny ground, no infrastructure. Fan base maybe but without the ground, virtually useless. Dodgy money will always be the only outcome at PFC. Who else would invest the amount of money required for such little rewards ? It' inevitable Mr Anderson (as Mr Smith would say). Sorry guys, me thinks you’re pretty well screwed. Have been, are being & will be again. Feel sorry for all genuine PFC fans, footballers, staff & funnily enough, your new boss (?) he must be thinkng .......... ?

    allegedly mandaric has some connection to a sports company based in florida. he used this company to pay money to redknapp. the FBI got involved, he isnt a good man at all.

    Then the answer is straightforward. Unless, the vehicle utilised offers a suitable level of transparency, then you don't get to buy the club!

    Again, because a number of Saints fans are getting ahead of themselves, I will point out, in bold and underlined this time, there is no suggestion that whatever happens with Antonov will lead to the closure of Portsmouth Football Club. Antonov isn't the only investor. He's doesn't own the club on his own.

    And he's not been proven guilty or innocent yet so I object to this jumping the gun. Being arrested is not, in and of itself, proof of guilt.

    I refer you to a decent thread posted by one of your fishy friends that's worth looking at.........http://www.not606.com/showthread.php/103181-What-the-issue-of-an-EAW-means

    However that thread does not hold any suggestion of Portsmouth FC being put out of business nor does it make any referance to even Antonov's plea let alone whether he is guilty or innocent. So my point remains. Some of your lot are jumping the gun by acting as if this'll bring the death blow onto Pompey and acting as if Antonov's already been charged, proven guilty and sentanced. It doesn't look good, undoubtedly, but that doesn't means anything is cut and dry yet.

    The death blow? PFC are (as earlier quoted) the turd that won't flush - you will be fine. After everything you have been through, you are the Houdinis of Liquidation!

    I said before nothing will happen!

    And to be honest I am surprised some Saints fans would welcome this given that we were in hard times a few years ago!

    despite the giggling delight from them down the road, PFC will sail through this latest scandal, and we'll come out rocking

    Seems there is a little 'evasion' going on down the road 1898. They can't sell out their allocation for the 18th. <laugh> Lightweights.

    Having been through hell ourselves, I wish Portsmouth the best of luck in avoiding Administration. I'm perfect happy watching you lose on the pitch, just as, no doubt, you are perfectly happy to watch us lose as well. There's no way I want you to lose in the board-room, especially to a bunch of crooks who have no place in the game in the first place.

    I wish them no harm, but I find it hard to stiffle the sniggers.
