It's quite sad some of you are gloating about being more successful than a club Which is permanently skint and gets crowd of of 6k if they're lucky. Oh and stop calling them Bompey, it's f*cking embarrassing.

Just what is your definition of a failure? A lot Listed on here were okay or good sort of players or not signed for relatively large amount of cash but not amazing. If that is the case then every singing saints have ever made has been a failure. Hey ho. Anyway Keane, Essien, Yorke, Andy Cole, Robben. Another 50 failures please.

If people are going to make brash statements like "for every big money transfers that work there are 10 that fail" then they need to back them up with facts.

He can be one that failed that. Another 49 needed......

Hmm, some of them are highly debatable. Of course if we are talking about any signing ever made which weren't brilliant then you might have a point, of course BBB just said big money ones that had failed. A lot of that lot were hardly big money or could be considered failures, not amazing, i give you. ANyway, here you go, Cantona, Robson, Zola, Schmichel, Cech. Now i need 50 that failed please.

I agree. Why stop at gypsies? We should do this to Jews as well and blacks and asians and chinese and foreigners and the disabled and midgets and anyone else who doesn't conform to our Nazi ideals we hold on this forum.

That thread was truly shocking. Its painful to know a number of these board members have Nazi ideologies.

He plays over there, he plays over here Adam lallana makes arteta look dear

I would expect a more and more of this over the coming months and years. I'd imagine a lot mid to lower table premier league clubs would love to have him.

No. I, like everyone else on here, believe in live and let live.

Good post. But you are posting it in the wrong place mate. THis isn't the forum for realism. Unless you say we need a 45k stadium and are on an unstoppable march to the champions league you are being negative.

Hmm, not quite. We played well in the first half, the second half and especially after they scored we just pumped it into the box, looked clueless. It was that sort of lack of guile and panicking when we couldn't steam roller a team which led me to think we'd bottle it in the play offs.

To be honest after that result i didn't think we'd go up.

I'm not. You said there was no evidence we were after a striker, other than the Itkers on here. This is incorrect, is it not?

So there was evidence we were after a striker then, right? So your post saying there wasn't was bullsh*t, right?

You've missed the point mate. Le God Third Coming said there was NO evidence we were after a striker......

Newpapers reported said Chamberlain was going to Arsenal this summer. It was dismissed as bullsh*t and mischief making. Make of that what you will.

If papers dont make up stories then clearly we bid for a striker, Beckford and Rodriguez, which means Nige wanted to sign one. NIge is on record as saying we pulled out of the SHarp deal so that is 2 we bid on. I thought you said there was no proof we had bid for a striker apart from a few "feckwit itkers on here"???

Lets hope so. If he isnt then he is a totally pointless signing. So i take it you aren't expecting him to be the new Micheal Svenson either then??

No, i'll give him a fair chance, like i do with all our players and i wont get on his back. You've got to admit it though, that on paper this doesn't look like the proven championship/PL potential defender we were looking for, does it.

He said he might be as good as or better than Svenson. The fact that Svenson was an international when we signed him and our Celtic reserve isn't and as is older suggests as good as Micheal Svenson he aint and is never going to be.

He is 29. Has played 160 games in his career, hardly outstanding over 8 years. Copenhagen had him on loan for 11 games and decided not to sign him- that his his experience at the top club in Denmark. He played 7 times for celtic in two season and is deemed not good enough. MS on the other hand was 27 and a full swedish international. Call me a pessismist but it dont look likely. I hope i am wrong though.

At 29 do you not think that ship might have sailed? It's not like he's a 20 year old, he's at or past him best in anything, which by the looks of it wasn't much anyway.

Ahh, those papers making up stories again then, damn them! Just like they were making up the Chamberlain to Arsenal stories.
