Whoopee dooo maybe they will give us an answer on the Desso

 

[Bladeloyal]

Couldn't give a fuck, the point is your taking the piss for him being in the Navy whether he's in it now or was in it before, which is entirely disrespectful but not exactly surprising coming from someone such as yourself.

Barney would love to see Bert take up his piss taking antics at a UK Naval Base.

Barney why doesn't tha change thee name to sir Isaac Walton .

Bert wouldn't be able to find the Naval Base because according to pommpey he's got Alzheimer's, he was also previously described as a "Window Licker" by our ex Naval correspondent.

Not......

Nah, don't debase the gentle art.

 

[pommpey]

He's not in the armed forces you clown. He's an ex member of the Navy just like Bert is an ex member of the Boy Scouts.

Pommpey would like to update Bert that he is back in the RN as they jumped at the opportunity to use his skills and experience.

Thank goodness for that, Bert can now sleep soundly in his Care Home.

 

[Bladesman]

Hang on, Dont we still have one of the biggest budgets in the division?
How do Clough, Adkins et al assemble squads of 40 no mark players on huge wages without the backing of the board?

Such an insane, repetitive pile of bile constantly spewed with literally so substance or foundation other than "hes employed shit managers" - shit managers who for the most part, at the time appointment were well recieved, looked good on paper but just didnt work out... suppose with us doing so well on the pitch that we have to moan about something......

It is worth pointing out Adkins only signed 3 players permanently and two of those were on a free transfer i believe.

Clough is the man who got most of the backing and accumulated players on decent wages which even now we are struggling to offload.

 

[S5Blade]

Let's not forget McCabe himself admitted he had taken his eyes off the ball when Clough was buying his mates from Derby. Wasn't the technical board re arranged after their failure of that seasons dealings? Didn't heads roll due to those failings? Like I said gullable.

No. He trusted the manager and the structure the manager put it in place and it didnt work. Head always roll in business due to failings - Its like talking to a plank of wood. You hate McCabe for no actual logical reason and will continue to slag him off, no matter what.

 

[I should coco]

For anyone that can't be arsed reading the whole thread, that is about top and bottom of it.

Sums it up for me.

Ignore the detailed information from several different posters as you 'can't be arsed'.

Stick to some Trump-like 'Hilary abuses children' line and keep repeating it. The more you repeat the more truthful it becomes.

If anyone challenges you with stuff like 'facts' ignore them, put your fingers in your ears and sing "La la la la....."

No idea how Sean has the stamina to keep this up, trying to offer reasoned arguements in the face of tripe. Hats off to you mate.

 

[Barney]

Where did I say I couldn't be arsed?

 

[oldblade]

Fuck me, it comes right back down to this:

We unnecessarily installed a Desso pitch, and then sold Murphy to pay for it.

Perhaps, just perhaps, it might have been better to keep Murphy or instead of buying a fancy pitch we did not need, buy a few top quality players in much needed positions.

And then we've got mouthpieces like t'owd Sean who never fails to rock up and make a half arsed effort at defending this type of stuff.

For anyone that can't be arsed reading the whole thread, that is about top and bottom of it.

Or maybe we bought Sharp and then sold Murphy to pay for him. Just a thought.

 

[Trigger Blade]

Have you always been disrespectful to the British Armed Forces or is it something you've just taken up recently?

Barney, so one eyed if he was short sighted he'd only need a monocle.

It's OK for pommpey to mock Bert and throw around jibes about Alzheimer's. Making jokes about such a thing could be considered in bad taste, although evidently not by you as you haven't pulled pommpey up for it.

On the other hand Bert incurs your wrath and is accused of a slur on the entire navy for what some would consider fairly gentle mocking.

Not that either of them have taken umbrage at what the other has said, just you. Strange that.

 

[Sean Thornton]

Oh I forgot... The money went to Brussels to his back pocket.

Wasn't that the Murphy money? Oh wait, that paid for the Desso last year. The Adams DCL money will pay for it this year but that still leaves the conundrum of who paid for it when it was announced

Or maybe we bought Sharp and then sold Murphy to pay for him. Just a thought.

Murphy sold August 2015

Sharp signed July 2015

Murphy signs new contract January 2015

Desso pitch announced April 2014.

Seems to fit the timeline a bit better than the pitch does, especially as Sharp was signed at the back end of July (25th). But that would mean that people have to get their heads around the concept that the club might sometimes actually sell players to finance the buying of other players.

A novel thought but then again Pommpey once calculated ticket income of 8 to 10 million a season ( plus other incone on top) based on an average ticket price of £25 ( :0) so it's no surprise people can't getvtheir heads around such a concept with all that money sloshing around at BL.

See the quote box. I lifted this (unedited) from your post, unless you have now changed it.

Are you now saying you didn't mean 'cant be arsed' or have been misquoted in some way?

People with more will to live than me, have continued to try and explain their arguements over the 16 pages of this thread. Your 'can't be arsed' line shows total contempt for their efforts, and then you wonder why people line up to mock you.

 

[Sean Thornton]

Hang on hasn't the budget been cut for Wilder?
Who employed Robson and the string of no marks right down to Clough and Adkins who he allowed to assemble a squad of around 40 no mark players on huge wages for league one?
Well whoopee doo McCabe seems to have found a good manager, anyone can throw a dart at a dartboard and eventually they will hit bullseye.
You will be telling us next the money for Adams and DCL has been ploughed back into the team.





The cheek to say someone comes up with utter bollocks ..............Jesus wept some people are so gullable, seriously.

Utter bollocks?

Looking at the accounts for 2007, our ticket office income for the premier league season totalled £7.6 million, this fell to £6.1 million the following season, and was down to £4.2 million for the 2010-11 season. I don't know what the figures are for the seasons after that, but it seems unlikely to me that they will be any higher than our premier league season. I would have thought that season represented the highest ever income we have received from gate receipts. Obviously, I don't know this for sure, but it seems a safe bet to me.

Considering that - after stripping out VAT, missing from the calculation and one sixth of the total income - over sixties ST holders pay £7.25 per game, under sixteens less than £2.20 plus the discounted price on ST's game, £25 is a nonsense figure. (Add the fact that season ticket numbers are either 16000 or 17000 depending which is the particular point he's trying to make - both wrong and making his calculation even more incorrect ) it's no wonder the losses seem wrong to him.

Achieving £7m in ticket sales last year or this would be very good but unlikely I'd say.

Plus other than any depreciation charge for the year, the cost of the Desso isn't even charged to Profit and Loss Account.

Don't fall for Seans bullshit oldblade maybe Sharp was bought to placate an already disgruntled fan base (from the Maguire give away/sale) as the board already knew they were going to once again offload our best player Murphy despite the famous words a few weeks earlier that Murphy was going nowhere, the same Murphy who was very happy to sign a 3yr deal less than 6 month previous. See easy this suggestion game you can never be wrong because as Sean knows he never really says anything at all he is only here to muddy the water or as they say smoke and mirrors, Kev must have trained him, who else would be sad enough to trawl through hundreds of someone's posts to find an irrelevant comment from six month ago.

Point of order. Stupid comment., it's relevant because it shows your one trick ponyism, to disparage everything about the club. I mean, come on, aren't you just a little bit embarrassed by that comment?

Funny that the only people who object to the search facility are those having to re read their own words that come back to haunt them. Usually the same people in many cases who threaten to use and then "can't be bothered"

You should actually give me some credit for posting the whole quote rather than editing it to make it sound as if it meant something else but thinking about what you said, there's not much editing to be done that could make it better. Or worse for that matter.

Emulate Blackpool. Dear me.

The latest set of accounts that I can find at Companies House is for the year ending 30th June 2015. I can't find a figure for total ticket sales, but they give a figure for advance ticket sales of less than £2.4 million. Presumably that represents season ticket sales?

Yes.

That's the latest set of accounts filed.

Those 6000 or so pay on the dayers must be paying Emirates prices, poor buggers.

Lol. My post said "For anyone that can't be arsed"

You misinterpreted that as "I can't be arsed", or you just didn't read it properly, one of the two.

I remember on the old United messageboard doing the calculation of revenue from that Premier League season. If I remember rightly I think the average ticket price actually paid worked out at something between £11 and £12. I bet it has not increased that much since that time.
