Get out the slow cooker and put on a stew instead. Set to 'simmer'...

We lost at Newcastle in spite of our tactics not because of them

Indeed. I wasn't for one minute suggesting that it wouldn't be a good thing from a nutjob perspective

Whilst judges are supposed to be impartial, I can't see Mr Sales bucking the trend of no-one in authority putting their head above the parapet and pulling the trigger. He would get all sorts of threats from the less intellectual Pompey fan for a start. Despite all logic suggesting otherwise, I can only envisage the judge waving through the PDT bid. Unless there's a tangible legal reason he can cite for not giving it the green light?

@mrjamesob: Net migration is down a third and Cameron's promised an in/out EU referendum. What, exactly, does your UKIP voter want? A time-machine?

Accusations of trolling threads aside, I'm 'nervous' about this one too. Given the teams around us all have 'difficult' ties (IIRC), I wouldn't be too unhappy with a point tomorrow... (Damn you Trousers, you're usually one of the optimists on here when it comes to Saints predictions. What's got into you man? Buck your ideas up FFS.)

He re-tweeted it for some reason. More likely to be incompetence than ignorance this time I would hazard a guess.

You know....the chap whose party came 2nd with 5x the number of votes the last time Eastleigh had a by-election...

Yep, Ed Millband must be jumping with joy...

They should consider relocating to Portsmouth. Pompey brings in c.£300m per annum to the local economy there...

@joemichalczuk: Quite simply the decision by @football_league not to consider the best bidder for PFC - as determined by the creditors + PKF - is scandalous @joemichalczuk: It's offensive to the fanbase, to the taxman, to the very integrity of the @football_league - quite simply it stinks, but what can we do? @joemichalczuk: Once more #pompey fans are used, abused and ignored. But why do we expect any more eh? And remember I'm a lifelong fan who feels like this. @joemichalczuk: No one can argue against that. PFC is being pillaged in front of my eyes - the @football_league are to blame.

I assume for balance and transparency Mr Allen will also be publishing the council's retrospective reply to this email / letter?

Are you referring to those annoying people that, having paid for their goods, then take an eternity to put their goods in their bag and put their purse/wallet away whilst staying at the counter rather than being courteous and moving to one side to do it?

@pn_neil_allen: So #Pompey Trust have council loan, fan pledges, PKF preferred bidder status, FL & PFA approval & partner Robinson has land.Time to believe?

Indeed. As someone pointed out a couple of weeks ago, the Trust using the PPs to buy Pompey is like you or I buying Microsoft with $1 and paying the rest to ourselves once we've got our hands on the company bank account.
