Ah... looks like Everton got a permit in the end.... I wonder why they never went through with it...? http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/2602030/Evers-ready-for-the-Toffees.html Edit: Ah, here's the answer... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1210502/Everton-boss-David-Moyes-frustrated-Valencias-midfielder-Ever-Banega-falls-through.html

Looks like there could be a work permit issue with Banega... does he play regularly for Argentina these days? From 2009: http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/2595637/Everton-to-sign-Ever-Banega.html

@pn_neil_allen: #Pompey season tickets will tomorrow have been on sale for a month. Current tally is 5,387. For a newly-relegated club. In League Two. And for a club that has the bestest most loyalist fan base in the whole wide world...

@pn_neil_allen: RT @pn_steve_wilson: It appears rival fans might have got the hump with Rod Bransgrove over his comments about linking up with #Pompey... Would you like two sugars with that chaps? (stir, stir...)

Tomorrow at 13:00 (CET) according to this.... http://www.marca.com/2013/06/12/futbol/equipos/espanyol/1371038488.html

I only take tax avoidance advice from John Mills Limited.

It's a shame Mr Campbell (or anyone else associated with Pompey) didn't "see it coming" when Pompey splashed out £90,000 a week on...erm....Sol Campbell two years before hand... #cheats

Sj Maskell ‏@SjMaskell #FootballPremierLeague an institution which was conceived in greed and has grown still more rapacious down the years. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2338083/Patrick-Collins-The-inequality-game--93-27-TV-billions-goes-Premier-League.html … ...and the very same institution that is still keeping Pompey alive well past its use-by date...
