Nail on the head. The fact that they are doing this with the Premier Leagues blessing makes it all the worse.

This thread must win the stupid question of the year award, of course spending makes a difference.

Stupid idea. You will just end up ruining the atmosphere because some of the vocal lot in the Northam will just stay where they are, some will go to the Chapel and some will go to the Kingsland. And they will end up sat next to boring old types with their thermos flasks and blankets who also refuse to move. If you're going to give them a corner just shift them round where they are now to the Northam/Itchen.

I like Marcus's style, just buy all the opposition's loan players. Do pompey have any players on loan we could buy?

The game after we went into admin we sold over 27,000. That's Saints V Charlton in the CHAMPIONSHIP and no freebies handed out. That's 10,000 more than you despite being in a league below. Plus, we know from experience that being in the Prem attracts many neutrals, I wonder what your attendances would be if you took those out of the equation?

Echo: "A fellow journalist at La Nazione, a daily newspaper based in Florence, added: “I don’t know a Nicola Cortese." How on earth is that news of any form whatsoever?!? Random Journo from random town, hasn't heard of random board member of random foreign club. if I was the Echo I would sack whoever ****ed up relations with SFC because without the club's support the Echo becomes even more pointless.

To be fair when Nigel Pearson was romping this league with Leicester it was "my gran could win League 1 given money". We need to win these sort of games to reach the play-offs, it doesn't help having these extra cup games tho.

I hope it's not on TV, our record on the box aint great.

I don't know how the premier League can justify letting them increase the size of their squad when they owe money all over the place. I bet the tax man is chuffed!

I remember reading somewhere that the PL would not lift the embargo unless they "were satisfied that the club's finances were in order". Hinting that even if they scrape enough money together for this months wages and their overdue payments they would still have the embargo. It's only fair, Bournemouth have had the embargo all season despite being able to pay their players and debts.

You would have thought the scientists employed by oil and energy companies with all their financial backing would have found a concrete scientific theory to disprove man made global warming by now wouldn't you? All we have is the odd scientist discredited, a few email hacked. Why? they have no scientific case at all and have no proof of some bizarre worldwide conspiracy.

So you don't actually KNOW anything. LOL

What, it's all made up so they can get funding? I find that pretty hard to believe, the first scientist to actually come up with a concrete theory to disprove man made climate change would not be short of funding. Would also probably win a nobel prize.

Obviously bull****, but if ever a face fits it would be Gaddafi's and Portsmouth.

It is funny how this pompey circus has suddenly come to have a direct effect us. If they fold we are one game away from Wembley in the FA Cup, there can be no arguements now, it would be fantastic for SFC if pompey cease to exist.

To be fair, you don't sound like you live the life of an international rock star.

Whilst it's right to question the science this just stinks of a the politically motivated resorting to the desperate last refuge of "all science is corrupt". The NOAA is just one of many scientific bodies, I'm pretty sure they can all measure temperature. In theory it doesn't matter wether you measure temperature in warm or cold places anyway, there are local conditions effecting temperature everywhere, it's how temperature varies over time that's being measured and I'm sure the scientists are more than aware of the Heat Island Effect, I did that in GCSE geography. I would ignore any politically motivated articles anyway, either left or right wing, they will all have an agenda.

Why do people bang on about this "cease to exist" ******, it has never happened to a club their size and is never going to happen. At the very very very worst they will end up a non league AFC Portsmouth, even the tree hugging softies on here must find that amusing?

Pompey should win but we have a puncher's chance. Marcus is basically building a Championship quality squad here, after a few of theirs are flogged his transfer window that is all they will have. The gap might not be as big as they think.

Midday Sunday I expect.

Bye bye pompey and bye for me.

He was a Grenadier, so I guess that means his job is to chuck hand grenades at the bad guys. My point was I know **** all about being in the army so couldn't possibly judge on how good a job they do. Just like you know **** all about how much hard work goes into getting a degree.

My mate was in the forces and sent to Northern Ireland, he said he spent most of the time sat around the barracks bored out of his mind doing **** all.

Keane is a sad pikey ****, I hope he gets dogs abuse.

Sounds ideal for McDonalds. Plenty of employers see the value of a degree, even if it's not totally relevant, it shows intelligence and aptitude. Anyway, I don't expect you to understand but university is not just about getting people jobs, it's about higher education and research.
