Indeed, continuing a long running statistic in this country...

@andyneat: Blackpool demand from Palace £500k compensation for holloway, but won't pay £200k compo for Appleton from #Pompey!! #jokers !!!! @dermotodw: Fans loyalty admirable, but Appleton was an inexperienced average manager in a job too big for him

@solentsport: Full Time: #Pompey 0-1 Brentford

It's saying something when this cauldron of nutjobbery and obsession is considered 'normality' :)

@NabilHassan79: Talks between #pompey & #bfc for Appleton are ongoing although I'm told compensation figure of £200,000 being reported is wide of the mark.

While we blood our teenagers in the premier league, Portsmouth Football Club ship theirs out to non-League sides whilst bemoaning how thin their squad is... @officialpompey: Teenage full-back Elliot Wheeler loaned to Bashley for a month: http://t.co/vOQVn8JU #pompey

@pn_neil_allen: Michael Appleton is at Fratton Park tonight for the match with Brentford. #Pompey

@PennyMordauntMP: Hello followers, apologies for my absence from twitter, it is a long story which started when my phone disappeared into a bog on Dartmoor.

Had an inkling that would be the convenient answer....

I bet you can't find two posts from the same poster to back up that ascertainmode>

@pn_neil_allen: Appleton has 2-and-a-half years left on a contract worth more than £200,000 a year. Naturally #Pompey want compensation from Blackpool. So, in the fairyland world of Pompey finances, I make it that Blackpool would owe c.£8,000 of that £200,000 contract.... And of course there's the total lack of irony awareness from Mr Allen in stating that a Pompey contract should be honoured and/or properly compensated....

Any update kind sir?

I'd wager that if we'd played the bottom 8 of 9 teams in our first 10 games, and were riding higher in the league as a result, those labelling the current reverse scenario as an "excuse" would by now be telling us that our high position was artificial due to the fact we hadn't played any of the top teams yet...

Am I too late to defect to the 'Adkins out!' camp...?

5live singing our praises at the moment. "Confident, competent start by Saints"

5Live : "fantastic travelling support from Southampton for a Monday night"

So it's either the return of Cala, Redknapp or Monkey Chicken Zoos then...? Or Rupert Lowe of course...
