Put yer money where your mouth is

Post by WheresWally/ScottMcGarvey »

Ok, great win by Liverpool today (tho' credit to City). Chelsea grind out a win v Swansea.

Now most of us (shirley) want a win for the scousers in case the "million squidz" is true. But putting that aside, please pick your team for the title. (preferably before Tues & Weds games).

Kicking off: Man City*

I think Chelsea may win at Anfield. But ultimately...

Point taken on the £1m. Tho' does seem to have some legs from somewhere - maybe Pini Zahavi gets a million if they win it?

Or Marc Jacobs.....or Daniel Azougy....or Peter Storrie......but it won't be Pompey.

Liverpool will argue we're a different concern now, different company name to the one that is owed the million sovs.

As we've inherited all the 'football debts' it's only right that we will be in line for any payouts due, we're still getting the parachute payments to date, so as far as the League is concerned we are still the same Club.

I believe that the scousers will do it, they seem to have the momentum and desire to do it at the moment, Chelski scraped a win against a ten man Swansea yesterday and the Pool showed great spirit to win against a very strong Man City.

Pool for me.

Neil Allen is someone who checks his sources.

The problem is that £1m isn't ever £1m - VAT for a start will be applied, then there are those who are entitled to a slice of the pie which Johnson and the agent involved (not Pini thankfully) will likely be entitled to. Don't forget Mr 5% Storrie himself.

Who knows exactly what will be left? Certainly at least 50% of the remainder will be paying off football creditors.

The joys of the much maligned football credit6ors rule.

I missed that from Earl. I agree, if football creditors debts are passed then so are the credits. Sorry Earl but that's nonsense.

My mate , big Liverpool fan , is very surprised that this said clause is still active. He said that Johnson joined Liverpool in June 2009 and one would have thought that such a clause would have said something along the lines of "if we win the league in the next 3 years" rather than "if we win the league at some time in the future and Johnson is still playing for us"

I would like to see Liverpool win it - if only for the possible £1M (that as a hardened Pompey fan, I just can't believe will ever happen). But I have a sneaking suspicion that the special one will pull off a smash and grab at Anfield. City will lose at Everton too.

So I'll go for Chelski.

Heart says Liverpool and they have played some good stuff this season but I wonder if they can keep their run going and have a sneaky feeling Norwich of all people might be a banana skin for them.

Head says The Special One will pull it out of the bag

That means Citeh will win it :lol:

If Citeh and Chelski win all their remaining games then Citeh are champions.

Such as the, I don't know, next '5' years?

2009 wasn't that long ago.
