@pn_neil_allen: There's a new blogger in town in @dodgycurry - here he frankly assesses Sulaiman Al Fahim. Well worth a read. http://t.co/weDsKaFm #Pompey That blog is actually quite articulate and well researched. The 'Pompey Takeover Saga' also gets a name check....could almost have been written by one of us...(apart from the previous blogs slagging off Cortese of course...)

Anyone know how the 'free tickets to kids' initiative is coming along? (the scheme the fans voted for re: spending the £30k they won for being the self-proclaimed bestest fans last season)

Looks like more spin than a Dead or Alive single being lined up for tomorrow... @pn_jordan_cross: In The News tomorrow,Dumbuya on why players want to stay, transfer latest, Gyepes update & Thompson on walking away from Celtic for #Pompey.

@officialpompey: Members of #Pompey's academy will visit Nigeria for a tournament later this month: http://t.co/BnucQO6r

MLG's chopper?

But are they accusing him of publishing something that he knew to be untrue?

I'm no Kelvin MacKenzie apologist but isn't he simply guilty of taking what he was told by the police and local MP as gospel (and representing it in the usual Sun insensitive way) rather than publishing something he knew to be incorrect at the time? As I say, I've no desire to defend him per se but are people finding him guilty of the wrong 'crime'?

Playing devil's advocate for a brief second, I guess Birch could argue that a "more competitive" Pompey is a more saleable asset than a "non-competitive" Pompey and, as such, artificially increasing their competitiveness in the short-term is most likely to result in the best deal for the creditors that he is there to serve....

Warn us before you get your chopper out MLG FFS....

A good read - cheers for posting

Micah Hall ‏@blueballoo2000 @TheRealSulaiman humbly and with the greatest courtesy, I would like to know if you have told the trust who your backer is? SulaimanAlfahim ‏@TheRealSulaiman @blueballoo2000 PST have full info Micah Hall ‏@blueballoo2000 @TheRealSulaiman it appears Sulaiman that PST do NOT have any info about your bid. Why did you say this when it isn't true? SulaimanAlfahim ‏@TheRealSulaiman @blueballoo2000 I have shared PST all what I have. If there is something I am not aware of, then can't create a story to share it with them Micah Hall ‏@blueballoo2000 @TheRealSulaiman when are you transferring the funds to PKF escrow account or your London lawyers client account, or are they there already? SulaimanAlfahim ‏@TheRealSulaiman @blueballoo2000 I Don't have lawyer in London and I no longer trust them Micah Hall ‏@blueballoo2000 @TheRealSulaiman your backer presumably has £12m but no London bank account either? Who is your backer? #transparency SulaimanAlfahim ‏@TheRealSulaiman @blueballoo2000 why you like to lie to the fans and create backers story. Who backs you when you give your kids school fees Micah Hall ‏@blueballoo2000 @TheRealSulaiman firstly, don't accuse me of being a liar. I take great exception to it. Secondly, are you now saying you have no backers?

Nah...the unadulterated joy that this forum gives is a catalyst for working more effectively the 14% of the time we're not on here....

Maybe people are getting lazier? (i.e. more in work but not working as hard)
