Correct, but that's not the comparison or observation we're making...

I'm guessing that Gillett will want a salary despite being available for 'free'...

First time I've heard of a sponsor not publicising their name... Hmmm...

An subtle edit to that last tweet... @pn_neil_allen: #Pompey squad train in Benhavis. Incidentally, trip funded by a local Portsmouth businessman and Gibraltar FA. http://t.co/ziaHe25P

@pn_neil_allen: Been informed the arrival of #Pompey's second goalkeeping triallist has been delayed for personal reasons. Hopefully he'll be here soon.

I was alluding to wages rather than any upfront fee

http://www.gibraltarnft.com/new_gnft_012.htm "Portsmouth FC will travel to Gibraltar from their Summer training camp in Spain on Friday July 20th. Michael Appleton's side will be looking to bounce back into the Football League Championship this year, and were keen to play Gibraltar as part of their pre-season training prior to their up and coming League One campaign."

@pn_neil_allen: Hold on a sec, there is another triallist to greet us at the hotel. It's former Shrewsbury and Notts County striker Luke Rodgers!! #Pompey

Ah....I remembered incorrectly....the original club statement said "funded by sponsors"... http://www.portsmouthfc.co.uk/LatestNews/news/Gibraltar-v-Pompey-3399.aspx Erm....they were still in administration the last time I looked....

IIRC, they said a while back that the trip was being funded by the Gibraltar Football Association. No reason to disbelieve them of course....

Since when did Pompey have more money than Doncaster?

And, of course, we all know that Lake Windemere isn't actually a lake...
