Media Statement – Portsmouth Football Club Website

Juicy has worked with Portsmouth Football Club for the past 3 years and has good relationships across the business, as supporters and fans ourselves, as much as suppliers.

Juicy has been in continual communication with the finance team in recent months about managing the costs of the website but were forced, due to payment plan breaches, to take the site down earlier today. A new payment plan with the club has now been agreed and the site will be made live with immediate effect.

Juicy Director Pete Holliday, said: “We understand how passionate fans are about Portsmouth and want to see the site live just as much as they do. We even had a supporter contact us today to offer to pay to get the site live again! We’re proud of the work we have done with Portsmouth, and are pleased to be working through these issues with the club so that the site can remain live and continue to serve the needs of the club and its community.”

Ends.

This is funny!

PRESS RELEASE

POMPEY FANS MARCH IN SEARCH OF A SAVIOUR!

Wanted! One careful owner who recognises how the passion of the Pompey fansmakes Portsmouth Football Club a football club worth saving.

Hundreds of Pompey fans are expected to rally behind a fans’ protestinitiative ahead of Saturday’s FA Cup fourth round tie with Sunderland tohelp save Portsmouth FC.

Fans are being asked to march, rally and then sign a petition calling on theclubs’ current owners to sort out the financial mess at Fratton Park. Thepetition, which can be signed by all fans on Saturday, will be handed in bya group of young Pompey fans ahead of the match.

And if the current owners are unable to come up with the finance needed,then fans are urging the present owners to sell up to someone who can.

With a winding up petition hanging over the club, over unpaid tax debts, atransfer embargo in place and the salaries not paid on time two months outof the past three, fans are claiming enough is enough.

A march is planned from the Guildhall Square at 12.45pm. Those fans willmeet with another group rallying at Milton Park from 1.15pm. Once united,fans will then march to Fratton Park at 2pm, where a petition is set to bepresented to the club by a group of young supporters, representing thefuture of the club.

Spokesman for the protest Bob Beech said: “We are making our voices heardtelling those in charge you can try and kill our club but you cannot killour spirit. The protest also points out to any potential investor who may bewaiting in the wings that there is no lack of passion with the fans.”

And Pompey ‘super fan’ John PFC Westwood added: “We want to show everyonethat fans are united behind this protest. We urge all fans to march, rallyor sign this petition,” he said.

“We are not against the new owner for the sake of it. If Ali Al Faraj can show he has the finance to take the club forward we would welcome it, but if he hasn’t he should step aside and allow someone who has to take over.”

I am back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(This was not written by me but I like it)


"I hate the Prem and the myth that it is exciting this year. Man City breaking into the top four isn't exciting. They spent loads of money. It's no more exciting that Nameless idiot getting to number 1 in the charts after winning the X-Factor.

I hate the myth of Arsene's kids. Buying some French kid when he's 17, playing him in the League Cup and then selling him when he's 20 after about 3 appearances in the league is NOTHING SPECIAL.

I hate hearing about Liverpool/Man Utd's debt but nothing ever happening about it. A club needs to go to the wall for the money thing to change but it doesn't happen. Why the hell are Charlton, Leeds and Southampton still in business?

I hate Frank Lampard's stupid face. I hate that Joe Cole's tongue is never in his mouth, the spacker. I hate John Terry being England captain when he's CLEARLY AN OAF.

I hate the England team.

I hate young exciting wingers who have nothing but pace. Tony Scully had nothing but pace.

I hate the FA Cup. There may be little but for the most part you know who's going to win it. Unless a team throws away all their financial security to win it a la Pompey.

I hate Harry Redknapp. And Jamie Redknapp. And Louise Redknapp. And the Wii.

I hate James Nesbitt, Eammon Holmes and everyone.

I hate Gary Lineker and Alan Shearer.

I hate Garth Crooks.

I hate Garth Brooks for that matter.

I hate Sky Sports.

I hate that when a lower league player beats 10 players and chips the keeper it doesn't matter but if Rooney scores from more than 20 yards it's amazing.

I hate that everything football related has to have 'Club Foot' playing behind it.

I hate that female sports journos are now mandatory.

I hate Mark Lawrensen for not coming out. 'I do like a big man at the back'. I bet you do.

I hate any advert that portrays football to be about anything other than pain and disappointment.

I hate any advert that mentions pies at football.

I hate Lee Hughes and the fact that he makes a living from the game. I hate Marlon King and any team that signs him when he gets out. I hate that it'll probably be us.

I hate Phil Brown.

I hate 'well the ball is a lot lighter now and will cause goalkeepers real problems this summer' before EVERY TOURNAMENT.

I hate that Kieron Dyer earned more in the time I took to write this post than I'll earn this month.

I hate Adrian Durham, Ian Wright and Alan Brazil.

I hate Gazza. Either die or shut up. Stop lingering.

I hate hearing about Hillsborough more than I hear about Heysel or Bradford.

I hate that a comeback from 4-0 down at half time (TWICE) means nothing because we aren't scouse.

I hate Leeds.

I hate Roy Keane.

I hate grown men wearing football shirts of their team whilst shopping on a saturday when their team is playing at home.

I hate that I don't hate Roy Hodgson.

I hate Jermaine Beckford and any player who has neck tattoos.

I hate songs being inappropriately taken as club anthems and then sung in a manly way. 'I'm forever blowing bubbles....'. Gaylords.

I hate Danny Dyer and anyone he's ever interviewed.

I hate the book 'Cass' by Cass Pennant. It is honestly the stupidest thing I've ever read. Chapter 1: Millwall. 'Yeah we took 50 to Millwall. They had 1000 in their mob but we ran 'em up and down the street'. Chapter 2: Liverpool. 'Yeah we took 50 to Liverpool. They had 2000 in their mob but we ran 'em up and down the street'. ... Jade Goody's autobiography is probably better. Even her non-ghost written one.

I hate that all good youngsters end their careers at Spurs before they start.”
