As would I!

It is important that this happens as it is another step to closing a horrific chapter in our recent history, but to me, McGuiness;Adams and the rest of Sinn Fein are still murdering b#st#rds!!

It makes you wonder why Pompey have been allowed to carry on for so long

After last night I needed something to cheer me up! Thank you Pompey! HAHAHA... Anyone else think that this really could be it? Too much stacked against them, smaller creditors can't be bothered anymore, nothing to lose etc.

Once again a great blog and a great read.... I have posted my blog on here before - so here is my latest couple of updates. http://marching-back.blogspot.co.uk/

Jimmy Carr is apparantly going to invest in Portsmouth FC now that he has exited the infamous K2 fund.

Constrained Resources! I almost ruined my work keyboard, coffee now trickling down the back of the desk!! ROFL!

I am going to GB v Uruguay on 1st August....I am sitting front of Middle tier behind goal.

I think the technical term for the 'bib' is called a Yoke. If you look at the early kits for a lot of football clubs, a lot of the shirt had them. If I had my way I would just have the 2009-2010 kit every season (the last with flybe). Apart from the plastic sponsor bit one of my favourite kits. Simple Red and White stripes...but I understand the need for the club to maximise its cash flow by selling shirts.

Blimey that was a good goal! Have a feeling Russia will nick it though

The people who moan about this and the Olympics in general are always going to moan about it. You will never win them over. I really hope they can pull off something incredible and uniquely 'British' (whatever that is?!). Everyone marvelled at Beijing, but people forget that mass rallies/demonstrations are fairly easy to do when you have the threat of execution hanging over everyone!

TBF the HMRC were going to block the previous Pompey CVA, it was just the debt suddenly became so large that it would have no effect - wonder how that happened???

I really feel for you! That it absolutely disgraceful and I am sure you are not alone with this scenario. If I were you I would look to get together as many of the smaller creditors as possible and protest outside Football League/FA HQ - invite the press, it isn't even about Pompey anymore. No club should be able to get away with this!

Trial may be a tad optomistic! Was invited up to WBA for weekend along with two other lads I played football with in local team. 1 of the lads was offered a YTS style contract, me and t'other were told thanks but no thanks. I was realistic about it at the time, I was and still am a decent player but nowhere near good enough to play anything above local football. One lad I played with as a youth was at Saints until he was released by Sturrock. Mike Green - Fullback if I remember.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthony_Pulis Just thought I would see how our favourite wannabe footballer is getting on...Now in the USA playing for Orlando City (with Wayne Rooney's brother!) 55 senior league appearances in 10 years with 12 different teams (most of which have been in lower league football) Just like Forecast, makes me wonder how I slipped through the net! Based on Pulis' talent, I think I could command at least £2K a week - and the furthest I ever got in my footballing career was a trial with WBA's youth team when I was 14.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Butland I cannot believe no-one has mentioned this lad!

Nothing to do with their inability to sign anyone due to the transfer embargo then???

I ran with the baton in Cheltenham... The torch went past my childhood home this morning. The entire community was out, celebrating, talking to each other. Everyone had a smile on their faces, even the police outriders got cheered. Plus my 5 month old daughter had her pic with the torch too.

So Henderson goes to West Ham, Ashdown released...are they playing 'Rush Goalie' next season?? Knowing that lot though, I am sure Gianluigi Buffon will be signed on a 9 year £100,000 per week contract in a few weeks!

HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!! Just when you thought the story (and the thread) was heading off into the sunset, a familiar figure looms from the shadowy corner of the saloon...

Jordan Rhodes, I agree that he has only played in League 1 - but so had Oxlade-Chamberlain and Pilkington. Personally I don't see any reason (other than Huddersfield demanding anything above £4M) why we shouldn't go for him. Yes other clubs might go in for him, but they have a lot more to lose - Everton, for example, aren't going to splash money around on an 'unproven player'. I think we are going to be linked with an awful lot of cr*p over the next few months...If we can start in August with all our key players retained and Jarvis, Davis (Rangers), Rhodes, unknown Italian hardman, CB and in my dreams Buckland (GK) from Brum I think we would be fine for next year!

Isn't Villa injured? A decent bet would be a French striker...

£41,349,647 for staying up! QPR did have a couple more live games which meant more cash so that figure is based on the equal share from the Premier League, Overseas TV Money, your Merit payment (ie where you finish) and 10 live games (the minimum). If Saints succeed next year and stay in the league we can expect that as a minimum payment...quite incredible sums of money.

Going to Kerdiff to watch Team GB v Uruguay (plus the tickets also include the Mexico game) Then got two tickets to watch Beach Volleyball (one Mens match, one Womens match) The torch goes past my house next Thursday too...I am one of the few who is genuinely excited about the Olympics!

We all said it at the time....'Family Club of the Year'!? The thing is, I am not at all shocked by this. How sad is that? I expect we will see some equally bad headlines coming out in the near future, especially if they do go pop. What is really distressing is, as some of the posters underneath both articles have stated, that TBH and his agent will get paid first rather than the Cancer Charity or Kids Charity. Their best chance of getting any of the cash donated is to wait for liquidation and join the free for all. I do feelm sorry for the fans who donated the cash too, they gave some of their hard earned money in full expectation that it would go to the charity - only to find out that the Dirty Skate barstewards kept it. If I were a Pompey supporter this would be the final straw, how can you possibly defend a team who does this???
