Newspaper coverage. Seeing a paragraph dedicated to League One football is so depressing...

1) Plastic support. As soon as times get hard the Johnny come latelies disappear. 2) I could handle the -7 jibes if you actually had ONE point on the board.... lmfao

Disagree... Pardew is quoted on here from, I think, a Times article in which he says sports psychology and modern methods are the way forward. Everyone on here praises his forward thinking... Sir Clive Woodward suggests the very same thing and he's a loon... Go figure..

Now if Lowe had said that you'd all call him bonkers... Woodward had more to offer than any of us cared to believe...

And Gareth Ho is obvious not in the office today, hence the silence... The business world grinds to a halt....

I know... Priceless... lol

It gets better according to the Mail... "The news came as a major shock chief executive Peter Storrie, who believed his alternative buy-out plan was on the verge of completion. Storrie is understood to have travelled to London on Wednesday for talks with Gaydamak to finalise the deal only to find he had not turned up. Storrie is believed to have then contacted Gaydamak to be told there was no need for a meeting as he had sold the club to Al Fahim. Gaydamak’s decision to sell to Al Fahim is all the more perplexing given Storrie’s backer for his ‘Plan B’, whose identity he was due to announce this week, is understood to be Saudi Arabian property magnate Ali Al Faraj, who has family connections to the Gulf’s biggest petrochemical company, Sabic." You couldn't make it up.... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1209186/Sulaiman-Al-Fahim-claims-taken-control-Premier-League-strugglers-Portsmouth.html#ixzz0PMuVm8SX

Sorry DD but the Office executive doesn't do Wednesdays... or does he? Let's all laugh at Gareth Ho. The Pompey office executive "Changing the world through office stationary..."

You might be in luck. The office executive should in work today in one of his executive 2-3 days on... lol So Gareth Ho.... Busy day changing the world? lol

Wow... It's like you didn't pay one jot of attention to my post. "Kicking up a stink" "steam roll your personal agenda" Unbelievable... Line drawn under. Ignore function re-activated... and relax....

Again... again.... When are people going to stop droning on my offense at people using the word cancer on here? You again seem to portray me as some word nazi trying to ban people using the word cancer. The truth was that once, once, I asked one poster for a bit of perspective, that some of us have cancer in our lives and using the word cancerous to describe Lawrie McMenemy* might be a bit ott and might upset or offend some of us. That resulted in numerous posters, of which you were the ring leader, painting me as some word facist, telling you what words to use. A slight over exageration. You then again were the chief ringleader in twisting my comments about raising money for cancer research and getting a day out for my mum. Only on this messageboard could doing something for charity be seen a bad thing and someone be slagged off and ridiculed for trying to do so. It was never the refusal of the club to help that annoyed me, more the the fact that the club couldn't be arsed to reply. Not even a stock, photocopied letter... not a dicky bird. Are you telling me that someone asking for "help" in raising money for charity doesn't merit a reply??? Even as a "part time local sports journo" i would expect the club to give even a stock photocopied reply to anyone who is dedicating their time to rasiing money for charity. Quite frankly I think it's cheap and thoughtless on the clubs behalf. But again I probably wouldn't have been annoyed had the only piece of correspondence I got not been a season ticket renewal form. That to me said, "Well Mr Wheeler, we don't give a stuff about helping with charity and we really aren't bothered about doing one nice thing for your gravely ill mother... but is there any chance yo can pay for all your games in one go?" You can imagine my answer. I didn't renew and went game by game. Maybe I'm asking too much but the club I supported was the heartbeat of the community and regularly did work for charity. The club I supported wouldn't view it as a chore to allow a ill, old woman ten minutes of it's time.... just to put a smile on her face. You on the other hand seem to think small acts of kindness are somehow asking too much from the club. I think it's to be expected from an obvious post Euro 96 newbie like yourself who only discovered football when Sky started broadcasting it. Football on tv meant you didn't have to actually go to it to have an opinion on it. For people like you going to watch a game is like a trip to the cinema. Sit down. Watch. Leave. The thought of your local cinema helping a loyal patron? Nil. That explains your stance... For your information, the club could actually help organise something for my mum. It was only from the intervention of Dave Ford that something was organised but by that time she was far too ill to go. That's Dave Ford. The much maligned (by some on here) member of the Ted Bates trust who saw what I was saying, made a few calls and got something done... and I for one will not forget the fact that he did so. But it does show that it can be done. I personally don't want to be involved with a club that thinks that small acts of kindness are somehow too much. Your biggest insult was that somehow I wouldn't be invoved in any of this if it wasn't for my mum and that somehow as a "local journo" I thought I had some right to something... What a ****ing insult you complete ****. What a sick, sad little man you are. Your comments were the main reason I decided not to renew my column this season past, that and the lack of time. Your barbed comments about my motives also stopped me raising money for cancer research. When my mum was diagnosed with Breast Cancer I raised £10,000 for cancer research, now the thought of raising money just makes me feel almost ill, as if somehow people think I'm in the wrong and you're right. Congratulations, you've managed to make raising money for charity seem selfish. For most, dealing with cancer has three stages. Denial. Anger. Acceptance. For me, my way of dealing with it was to come out fighting and help someone else... I never realised that made me selfish... You're wrong and the more you protest the more ridulous you look. You judge everyone by your own self, self centred, ugly standards. You obviously can't believe that people do things for other people, for non selfish reasons. You seem to think my motives are selfish. My mum has cancer. Money raised for Cancer Research won't help her, she has it and one day it will kill her. You seem to too dim or too selfish to realise that.... And you wonder why I despise you. I have told you countless times, my reasons and my motives and yet you consistantly ignore the truth and continually peddle your pack of lies as to why I had a beef with the club and why I tried to raise money for charity. When you continaully ignore the truth and peddle your own agenda then that makes you a liar. You're back on ignore. The only reason I took you off was that someone mentioned what you'd posted. Life is sooo much better without you in it... * Lawrie McMenemy: Our most successful ever manager.

Never said you did.... But again, are you thick? I never asked for ****ing signed shirt. I had a shirt that I wanted to get signed for my mother who at that stage was so ill she could barely walk, had lost half her weight and her hair and couldn't manage the strength to get out of her chair. The club couldn't be bothered to allow her to get her shirt signed by the players/manager at Staplewood. You seem to think that would open the floodgates and everyone would want this sort of treatment. What utter rubbish. People get their stuff signed at Staplewood all the time, I just asked the club to make one woman's day by meeting a few players and getting a few photos taken. If that's too much, then **** this club and **** anyone who thinks one small act of kindness is asking too much from it. If the club can't be bothered tto do something kind for a gravely ill woman a let her get her shirt (bought and paid for) signed at Staplewood then what use was the club? It certainly had no heart then. It would have cost them nothing. Once again you have deliberately misinterpreted my words and given it your own spin. You on the other hand called me a tin rattler, insulted me on Essru's site (remember that?), tried your level best to paint me as some grief stricken weirdo trying to damage the club, a z list echo wannabe using my z list "celebrity" status to get money from the club for cancer research and were generally sneering and dismissive of my attempts to raise money for charity... I wouldn't mind if I was asking the club for anything other than a polite reply for a attempt to raise money for charity... In the meantime... Some of my favourite quotes from you about me.... "Daren Wheeler and excellent column isn't that an oxymoron whatever the connotation of column? Considering the bile the bloke has spat about this club especially with regard to his pious attempts to collect money for Cancer Research which I suspect he would not have bothered had his mother not contracted cancer herself. Believe me IMO Daren Wheeler is the last person we need to speak out on the club in an unbiased fashion. No doubt he will be hitting them with his 'charity stick' for a long time obviously so or otherwise. Just an opinion but appears the type to carry a grudge even in light of an explanation and one who strikes me as needing to be treated differently and above the normal fan to court a more favourable opinion. We need balanced assessment and IMO from what I have read from Wheeler on here that is unlikely to happen." "There is perhaps a more pertinent Jewish saying that will make a perfect summary of the whole issue: A man who gives charity in secret is greater than Moses. Its a pity Mr Wheeler chose not to follow this advice and keep his charitable work private like many, many other unsung heroes who expect nothing but give plenty in time and money." There are numerous others that can't be, for some reason, now be located on TSW. Perhaps someone has the post he made on Essru's messageboard. That one was a peach. Glad to see you haven't, or rather can't, denied your multiple personalities on here.... You are Sundance Beast, You are Flashman and you are a liar...

That does indeed help. Torrent Of Abuse owes no one an apology...

Try looking under Sundance Beast or any of your many other aliases. Try looking at Essru's old messageboard.. Or is it just one of the "family" using the internet at home again? You have posted under different names and aliases? Fact or Lie? Let's have a definitive answer please before you start demanding apologies...

I'm sure you're posting something about me Numpteen but thankfully I have you on ignore.... B L I S S lol

Nineteen Canteen talks out his arse, Neal Trotman shoots out of his....

And another thing, this thread has produced a direct comparison between Numpteen Beast and Lowe. Lowe is quoted in the book as telling Hassan Kachoul that his wage would be a fortune in Morrocco and here is Numpteen telling us that £200,000 a year is a good wage in the Uk... Hmmmmm.... Coincidence? lol

Wes... Please don't quote the troll. I have him on ignore and thus far it has been bliss! But judging on your quote, the troll believes Matt was naive for not being greedy. You can't suddenly implement real world pay rates and say he was reletively well paid! As Delldays has so eloquently put it, when you consider what other, lesser, player were being paid it's remarkable that Matt stayed loyal. Only in the twisted, mad, demented world of the TSW troll could loyalty and dedication be viewed as a weakness... Put him on ignore people, it's ferking great...

I think certain people who've been slagging off Le Tiss would do well to red this extract from Kelly's piece... "There are those too who criticise Le Tiss for not leaving Southampton and trying his luck at a bigger club. Again, Horne has been enlightening. In the early Nineties, Le Tissier had indeed agreed to join one of the capital’s giants. At the last minute he went to that club’s manager and asked to be released from his obligation, saying he couldn’t bear to leave either Southampton the football club or Southampton the city. Of course he can be accused, in the modern parlance, of “lacking ambition”, but, ultimately, he followed his heart (exactly as he did when playing the game) and which of us can say that that is ever a bad thing? In sticking by the team he loved, he probably sacrificed a wheelbarrow full of cash. To some that might make him a fool. To me, and millions of other football fans, it assures his status as a hero." The man is quite simply a hero... enough said...

Me too, I always dress like a member of the blazing Squad when in Pompey, fake burberry, gold plated jewelry and a dog on a rope... I fit right in...

I have both put him on ignore and bought the book.... Bliss!

No, how some numpty can slag off Le Tissier and slag off his book off without having even read the damn thing... Now that is pathetic...

Oh dear... So the way you disappear for days on end is why then? Whenever you get caught out, which is often, you disappear for days on on end but suddenly find the time to post when things go your way. It's because you only work 2-3 days a week and only post when at work??? lolol Oh the smell of bullsheet is almost overpowering! The takeover is a joke and is in disarray, you disappear. The takeover is on, you're all over this board like a rash. It's sign, not that you're a busy office employee but a sad no mark who sulks when he's found out and doesn't have the balls to debate when things aren't going your way. And you didn't answer the point did you? You knew nothing, you told us nothing about the takeover only that something someday was going to happen! You're so in the know it's frightening! lolol So big Dazza me all you want... I'm sat here laughing at you... You sad pathetic little man lol Oh, and as you only post at work, you obviously work Thursdays and Fridays as you posted twice yesterday and three times on thursday, but for some strange reason you must have popped into the office on Monday and Wednesday as you posted three times a day then! 1200 -1600 on Monday and 1250 and one in the morning on Wednsday. Wow what hours you must work!!

Rich he's just an attention seeking fantasist. I've blocked him now, I can't believe how long I've let this troll annoy me. His whole anti Le Tissier agenda is based on his own assumptions, there's not one hint of a fact just a vile smear campaign against one of our greatest ever players. His only justification is that he feels he's just expressing an opinion and the rest of us are sheep for believing a true legend over some unsubstantiated rumours. Utter rubbish...
