Ahh the emotional blackmail of...I am a better fan than you...perhaps you don't have a problem with money that a lot of people do now...perhaps you can afford to throw good money away watching a sterile bunch of kids playing football with little hope of winning coached by a total football coach who has no experience of English football along with his young team.

Askams and one or two others have proxied thier shares to Lowe, he can call on about 24% . The only way to get rid is an alliance of Wilde and Crouch...that just will not happen.

Just wait for the emotional blackmail from those uber fans...we have no responsibility to bail out Lowe or Wilde. If in staying away it causes a short term problem resulting in better owners then go for it. However there is no guarantees that the next owners would be any better or more adept at running a club. Unfortunately I just have no idea which way we should go, and, I would bet that the vast majority are in the same situation...damned if we do and damned if we don't. The last thing that we want is to see the long term future of our club suffer...however we have no faith in Lowe, Wilde, the youngsters or Jan

Why is he departing this mortal world willingly?

His personal shareholding is I believe 6% of the shares, the major single biggest shareholder is Wilde.

To achieve the results of the building block for the future you need good workmen, solid foundations and good quality materials and a carefull plan....we have none of those things

The one thing that the bank does not want is to see Saints go into administration, perhaps rather than use the word bank I should have said Norwich Union. It would be difficult for them to find a buyer through the receivers, therefore I can see pressure being put on the likes of Lowe / Wilde etc to go, if they believe that another group could or would run things better and improve the attendances , believe me this would happen. A bank will not want the stadium left on their hands, the only alternative is to sell it to Pompey, and, I can't see them wanting to play home games in Southampton. If the bank thought for one moment that getting rid of Rupes would boost attendances significantly he would be gone in a flash

Sadly until hell freezes over, can't see anyone with enough wonga to buy him out at the price he would sell for

He really is a Portsmouth supporter...I thought everyone on here knew that already..

You cannot use emotional blackmail to force people back to prop up a failed regime !

Nickh I have to smile at your contributions...you are sooo over the top in your support for the current regime. Only the fans are to blame...I don't think so

You cannot even think of comparing us with Man Ure which is a well run club with right policies and decent players.

Until he can at least get the value of his original investment back...or make a profit. He must be starting to regret the reverse takeover.

Sadly Sundance is a very erudite individual with a rather stilted view of things. He is neither crasse or uneducated...simply a person with an irrational view of reality.

So let those who own the major part of the shares invest more of THEIR money in the club to make it more attractive to the paying customers, without expecting the long suffering customers to continuing to prop up a club that they the major shareholders have jointly ruined

Supporting a club which is well run, and the paying customer is valued as a major partner in the future, and someone whoes support is neither EXPECTED or TAKEN FOR GRANTED

I liken you and all the other positives to pacifism...and your attitude reminds me of the guy who went to Munich , came back with a letter and said "peace in our time" ..we all know what happened next. Once you wise up things will improve, because they have to

The results will improve the finances...Lowe and Wilde leaving will improve them even more. Nuff said. People should not be expected to pay top dollar to watch a failing experiment...another of Lowes manic ideas

I have to smile at your restaurant simile...I have just got back from Kardemena, the best restaurant there (IMO) is called the Alexander, I went in got served by a waitress from Pompey...she told me that a Saints supporter came in ready to order, when he found out she was from Portsmouth he got up said nothing and walked out.

Then Lowe and Wilde had better do something and quick, its not the fans who are causing the problem, its not the fans who got us into the mess. Our responsibility is over, until they sort out the mess

They never promised you a team to win games just "Total Football "....What do you expect for £25 a game ?

The supporters who stay away did not get the club in the mire...they have no responsibility to pay to watch substandard results...they have every right to come back IF things ever improve.

So you are pleased are you with the way the season is going ?

No we are realists...Lowe and Wilde screwed this club, we are now in a position to show him all is not forgiven

Its wonderfull to hear his views considering we rarely win a game. The experiment of total football with inexperienced youngsters is not working ..it will take us DOWN to the next level
