People who take drugs choose to do so out of their own free will, whilst smuggling Heroin is obviously a serious crime, the smuggler is not directly responsible for the deaths. Should drink drivers be shot? Or maybe people who sell alcohol or Tobacco - they are just as guilty of causing deaths as drug smugglers. If you kill people for drug smuggling you might as well just shoot all criminals.

The Chinese are ****ed up IMO, killing someone for murder is one thing but for drug smuggling I think it's wrong. Is life really that cheap in China?

Wont make any difference to us, we are not going to win the FA Cup, we might miss out on a bit of a pay day, that's it. Whereas picking up injuries and suspensions against Luton or having a tired squad for the next league game could cost us promotion.

I would rest the lot, not fussed about going out of the FA Cup.

It's vital we get back up for Lambert., if he gets injured it's season over.

Any real football clubs?

Scheiderlin has improved greatly under Pardew but to suggest he is better than Hammond is nonsense. He might have the potential to be but at the moment he's not even close. There are so many more things to being a good player than just having a good touch.

The thing is though no matter how bad their situation is facts are the council wont let anyone bulldoze fratton park if it meant portsmouth had no football club. There will always be at least 5-10 thousand people wanting to pay to watch football in portsmouth every other week - so there will always be a football club in portsmouth. Worst (best) case scenario would be AFC portsmouth in the Blue Square.

All this "cease to exist" stuff is nonsense. The very worst case scenario is they go into admin, get docked points and get bought out by someone. The same as what's happened to every other club that has gone into admin. That's why I wish them the worst, because that would be they end up where Luton is, which would be **** funny.

It's not hard to understand, I have no friends who are pompey fans. My opinion of portsmouth is formed mainly through my experience of: Watching a few thousand portsmouth fans shout insults during the minutes silence in respect to a recently deceased old man. Walking behind a line of Police whilst lots of portsmouth people fight with them, kicking police dogs and throwing bricks trying to get at me to fight with me. Standing in a crappy little stadium whilst lots of portsmouth people make cut throat gestures and sing about smashing my face in with a brick. I understand that not all pompey fans are bad people, but for the above reasons alone I will greet portsmouth FC going out of business with genuine delight.

It's a bit of a detor just to bang some Thai bird, especially when Tottenham is probably not short of tarts!

What percentage of scientists have to agree before you accept it as fact though? As it stands, if next year temperatures rocket and millions die in Africa, weather gets more and more extreme and half of the UK gets flooded - some people will continue saying it's natural, how can you prove otherwise? At some point you have to accept the scientific opinion, and virtually all the world's governments have done so despite the consequences being very expensive. Scientist are mainly in agreement that we are having an effect, there is obviously disagreements as to how much is human and there is very little consensus on what will happen in the future - that is the really scary part. If scientists like James Lovelock prove to be right then results could be catastrophic.

I would say that Norwich would be favourites to win the play-offs, even if we didn't have the 10 point deduction they would be 7 clear of us, even Colchester would be above us. Anyway it's not always the best team that wins the play-offs, they are a lottery, one dodgy penalty or daft own goal can mean season over.

Apart from owing millions to ex players, other clubs, agents, former owners, the inland revenue and various banks/loan sharks, the real worrying thing for Pompey is the fact that it looks like their ground is secured on a loan by a hong Kong businessman who is business partners with an Israeli property developer. And the land around it is owned by Gaydamak. It looks like PFC's only assets are a bunch of players they can't afford to pay (probably more of a liability than asset) and their Premier League status (LOL).

Play-offs are easily in target, 7 points with 20 games left when you have a billionaire in charge should be no problem. A couple of quality signings in January and we should romp it in the second half of the season. The problem is the play-offs are a lottery, if we reach them it's a 1 in 4 chance so the odds are still against us going up IMO.

It has to be Avram Grant, from the Mail... "The Mail cannot give the location of the massage parlour since it would help identify the football manager."

Don't worry, no half decent sized football club will ever cease to exist. We will still hate you the same when you are Portsmouth & Havant & Waterlooville United in the Blue Square - the rivallry will still be there, just much funnier for us.

Did they ever announce how much was made/lost from that Saints Aid fiasco? I've heard people are still owed money.

If a bunch of Suicidal Jihadists get hold of a nukes then our nukes are not exactly a deterrant are they?

It is probably a sound argument to say they are a deterrant but there is no need to buy new ones, a bunch of old nukes that might not work is still a deterrant, I today's world I would rather spent the cash on something else and take the risk, being part of NATO is enough of a deterrant IMO.

No, Solar activity has decreased (scientists measure this you know) and the Earth's orbit influence is over 100,000's of years.

I'm guessing solar activity, volcanic activity or wobbles in the Earths orbit.

Solar activity is probably the main influence on the earth's temperature but during the recent warming, the sun has actually decreased in strength.

Try these... http://climate.nasa.gov/keyIndicators/ http://hadobs.metoffice.com/hadcrut3/diagnostics/comparison.html

Of course that is fact, it's also a fact that something caused those things in the past (changes in solar activity, volcanic activity and changes in the Earths orbit). Whilst these things are a mystery to you and me, they are things scientists understand and measure yet not one national body of scientists in the World have come up with a theory to explain the rise other than an increase in CO2. There is always a chance they are wrong but it would be foolish to ignore them considering the possible outcome.
