We cordially invite you to visit the site, which provides a link to our on- line shopping service, buy.at/theposhtrust. OAKHAM ALES in association with THE BREWERY TAP and CHARTERS are proud to sponsor “BUY ME OUT FOR £600,000”: THE TRUST’S RESPONSE We are continually being asked by members and other Posh supporters why the Trust has not reacted to Barry Fry’s oft-repeated appeal to “buy me out for £600,000” by doing just that. We are confident that, if that were all it took to take control of the club, we could raise that amount of money in a relatively short time – similar feats have been achieved by other trusts. Unfortunately the club is potentially in such a perilous financial state that, if we (the Trust) simply bought out Mr Fry, we would be in exactly the same position as the club is now, owing money to numerous creditors who could conceivably cause the club to be wound up at any time. Equally, the other creditors or guarantors could also demand to be repaid.

    You're So... We're So... This is dedicated to Woody (my son Daniel). A dad always dreams of a son who comes to football with him and Woody has done so. That's the way God planned it: That's the way God planned it Toby. Billy Preston 1969 The End and the Beginning Thank you to all those who have stood (and I emphasise the word 'stood') on the Glebe Road side of the Posh ground over the past few years. Next season we will have to sit down and watch Peterborough United if we want to stay on the Glebe Road side. Time has marched on and a stand is to be built on our beloved concrete. No more stamping feet to keep warm. No more wandering about. No more dandelions. It is very self-indulgent, I know, but I I would particularly like to thank Woody, Les, Trevor, Stewart, Colin, Geoff 'the Pieman', Steve, Jack, 'Eastern Gas', David, Derek, Angus, Phil Walden, Vern and the gang for their friendship, jokes and extra strong mints. But, most of all, I would like to recognise all those people that we all nod to, or say 'hello' to - the sort of folk whose names we never get to find out, the people who just go down in folklore as 'the Man Behind Me', 'the Mick Halsall Fan Club' or 'the man with the Dodgy Glasses', people who, if we were to meet on the sea front at Great Yarmouth in high summer, we would greet like long-lost friends.

Today we G welcome our guests from GOSPORT BOROUGH FC to our home, and we hope they enjoy their short visit, and have a safe journey home to Hampshire’s south coast later tonight. My thanks go especially to Rachel Stone for providing details for this programme. Our visit to Gosport almost eight months ago produced a 2-1 defeat, but was a game that I think many of us felt we might have got some kind of result. A lot of water has passed under Staines Bridge since then, and ‘results’ have been few and far between, meaning that we’ve long since been relegated, but our visi- tors still have everything to play for as they try to preserve their Premier Division status. Just five years ago, Boro were looking forward to a trip to Wembley to contest the FA Trophy final, but a couple of years after they saw them beset by financial worries, which was to see them lose their place in the Conference South.

  • 314 – January 2012
    THE HAMPSHIRE CRICKET SOCIETY Patrons: John Woodcock Frank Bailey Shaun Udal NEWSLETTER 314 – JANUARY 2012 MEETINGS Wednesday 11 January 2012 - Meeting The Society extends a warm welcome to this evening’s speaker, Martin Bodenham. He is the only man to referee in the Football League and umpire in first-class cricket. Born in Brighton on 23 April 1950, MARTIN JOHN DALE BODENHAM took up refereeing in local parks football in his native town (now city) in 1966. He graduated to the top level in 1978. He was the fourth official at the 1994 European Cup Final, when A C Milan, inspired by a majestic Dejan Savicevic, swamped Barcelona 4 – 0 in one of the greatest performances in the Competition’s history. On the domestic scene, he refereed the League Cup Final between Leicester City and Middlesborough at Wembley in 1997. The teams were unable to finish affairs at the end of extra time (1 – 1) and so a replay was necessary at Hillsborough. This match also went to extra time but the maverick Steve Claridge eventually won the match for Leicester City with a goal in the 100th minute. He also refereed four international matches and two FA Cup Semi-Finals. He retired from refereeing in 1998, whereupon he became an umpire in the Sussex Cricket League. He was added to the ECB reserve list in 2006, and officiated the match between England A and Sri Lanka at Worcester in May of that year. He was appointed to the first-class umpires list in 2009. To date, he has stood in only one of Hampshire’s first-class matches, a drawn encounter at Headingley in September 2009.

    E aestimatio, the ieb international journal of finance , 2013. 7: 02-21 L the ieb international journal of finance C © 2013 aestimatio , I T R A H C Does managerial turnover R A E S Affect Football Club Share Prices? E R Bell, Adrian R. Brooks, Chris Markham, Tom ̈ RECEIVED : 13 JANUARY 2013 ̈ ACCEPTED : 11 MARCH 2013 Abstract This paper analyses the 53 managerial sackings and resignations from 16 stock exchange listed English football clubs during the nine seasons between 2000/01 and 2008/09. The results demonstrate that, on average, a managerial sacking results in a post-announcement day market-adjusted share price rise of 0.3%, whilst a resignation leads to a drop in share price of 1% that continues for a trading month thereafter, cumulating in a negative abnormal return of over 8% from a trading day before the event. These findings are intuitive, and suggest that sacking a poorly performing manager may be welcomed by the markets as a possible route to better future match performance, while losing a capable manager through resignation, who typically progresses to a superior job, will result in a drop in a club’s share price. The paper also reveals that while the impact of managerial departures on stock price volatilities is less clear-cut, speculation in the newspapers is rife in the build-up to such an event.
