Bournemouth are a club who should be benchmarked against to see what is acheivable.

  Apart from both being located on the South coast the comparison is laughable. Maxim Demin(ambitious Russian oligarch and majority shareholder at Bournemouth, with backing from other wealthy investors on their board) vs James(GreenJim) Brent (ultra 'cautious'  property developer, hotelier and surfwear pedlar, with backing from Tony Wrathall).

You could say it's all a bit 'Sandbanks vs foodbanks'.

Sure, I just mean that usually the super-rich usually go for an already established Championship side at best, not a lowly club in the bottom two divisions as Bournemouth were at the time. With the right investor, the same could be accomplished. Ok, you could say that about any club I guess. I suppose we just have to hope for a rich benefactor to move to Plymouth...but then we had that with Kagami et al, and look how that ended up...althought I maintain that if it wasn't for corrupt Blatter and co, England would have won the 2018 WC for sure and Plymouth would be looking to host matches in 2018 but that's a whole other argument.

What makes you so sure england would have won ? They received 1 vote remember.

Two votes actually.......Issa Hayatou of the African Confederation and our own Geoff Thompson.

Russia would be good hosts, racism happens everywhere im afraid but change takes time its not so long ago john barnes had bananas thrown at him.
Eastern block is about 20 yrs behind the west in that regard.

As a fan, I can't think of a much worse country to have to go to, to support my team. I'll be on the Cote D'zur next June for a while during the Euros (planning on watching England v Wales in a bar in Monaco  ) That'll be brilliant.

Russia? No thanks.

I can. Easy.

Qatar.

Very droll Homes.

Dear Mods, I do hope we humble posters will be updated on the situation re those awful abusive PMs complained about upthread. I think we ought to be informed when you find out that there were none who is doing such a dreadful thing...

Thank you Charleymouse. We have asked Steel Cannon to forward on the abusive PM's and we will take immediate action in accordance with the rules of this site however it is up to each individual to choose whether or not to take the matter further. Unlike other sites we have no wish to read private communication.

Very well replied Mr. Trickle.

In these days of tinternet exposure and Argiggle in a mess, the conditions were/are perfect for those deviously ambitious bullies who control opinion through popular websites. They worship whoever is in power at HP and make it clear to said owners that they are useful idiots.
They groom the dimwitted masses [praaaper faaaans] into charitable acts and set up black pasties, gazebos, tents n lounges through which the Aviva masses can gain their very own recognition. Photoshoots aplenty and maybe a trip to the directors' box for the most worthy.

Gas board plan too difficult to control, so give the most astutely compliant and ambitious, a full time job and groom the  trust until it behaves itself.

Job done Jimmy................ you fine gentleman, you.

So Plymouth. So janner. So village.

You just love tarring everyone with the same brush don't you?

That's because I recognise the Janner condition........................so does Jimmy.

But who paid for the brush?
