Do
you remember when Gregory was chairman? When Vince Wolanin and Howe
attempted to take over? When Terry V bought the club for a pound?
Simple days with easily identified and researchable characters.
The
news today from Andy A that there would be a new owner within a week,
which had been pre-empted by Appleton who had made positive noises at
the weekend, should bring about excitement within the club. But all
Pompey fans will feel trepidation. We have been burned so many time
recently. We have written about feeling stupid for believing in
Antonov despite there being clear evidence that he was a crook. THIS
time when the name is revealed we will have an objective look at the
individual involved.
BUT
even if we dont agree with the new owner or consortium, what can we
do? Nothing. The fit and proper persons test will not eliminate
anyone from the equation. Andy A has already stated he is 'fairly
satisfied that they the finances to take the club forward' fairly
satisfied?! This is why it is so important to try to get fan
representation on the board and part ownership of the club. We
continue to wait and wonder...
Still
exciting times...potentially.
