Greenridge

His career is really not going as he'd have hoped I'm sure. Another to leave SFC for the golden paved streets elsewhere only to find the grass is not always greener on the other side after all.

Well SJ scored 20+ in the CC? I'm just playing devils advocate here. On the face of things Lambert looks a cracking buy but looking at some of the comments on here it would seem a lot of SFC fans must have been watching him week in week out? Always appears to be a trend on this forum that when a player leaves he is absolutely sh!te all of a sudden and anyone coming in is the new messiah...I just hope that's the case!

Seems a lot of expert opinion on Lambert....or is it just based on his goals tally?

I lol'd at that...very good.

Lose lips sink ships

You weren't too keen on him then! I'd agree with some of your points but with the right guidance and coaching he will become a very good player indeed. It's the first game of the season, give AP the chance to work some magic.

You don't think he should have done better with the goal?

Oh dear it's started already. Uber fan speaks out. Have you ever heard of television...it's a relatively new technological development.

Pompey are trying to sign Viduka but can't finalise things as he is still on holiday! A week before the Prem season kicks off and the week when the other leagues are in action this guy is still on holiday lol! http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11095_5479705,00.html Even Hart admits he has no idea what physical condition he is in....desperate needs means for desperate measures. They've also cancelled the contract of Arnold Mvuemba

That's a funny time to make an enquiry, I would have thought the people involved would have other things on their mind at half-time.

A pretty decent effort all round against a team which is expected to be there or thereabouts. Patterson lead the line well and for someone who apparently wants to leave I thought Saga put the effort in. Shame about the goal which Davis should have done better with but he made a great double save and even collected a couple of crosses. Plenty to build on if AP can add a couple or more signings

Lol Phil i'm having a bad start to the day!.....my only excuse is generally FF is on the money. I'm going back under the sheets now to hide my embarassment. :smt100

Yes of course you are right, my bad. Sounds like he was in a conventional hospital under guard rather than a prison hospital so I guess it free's up the costs of guarding him if nothing else.

Which is nice. Shows the Club is acting professionally. Also a blessing to see the end of 'I have been told', 'my contact informs me', 'I have it on very good authority' twaddle! Facts, we want facts....oh OK a little bit of gossip as well!

Pro's and con's to both sides of the argument. For me, from a justice perspective, he should stay in jail. If you're prepared to do the crime then be prepared to do the time. I don't buy the reason that he is no longer a threat to society, that's got nothing to do with it, he is in prison for a crime and one where someone ultimately lost their life. Whether the death of the guard can be directly attributed to the robbery is up for debate and there appears to be no direct link to Biggs but nonetheless his gang was involved then by association he is guilty. He's not long for this earth anyway so it really is neither here nor there but it would seem to be setting a precedent for all terminally ill prisoners?

..that's more worrying than the -10

Lol looks like Nugent is the next one away with more to follow... http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11095_5476449,00.html ...it just gets better and better

Seems it is true...bless him. Apparantley Nugent tried to hit him back but missed.....boom tish http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11095_5474160,00.html

Has John got a monkey?

It will be interesting to see the attendance statistics at the end of the season....not just pre-season ticket sales. I'd be a little surprised to say the least if Norwich out do Newcastle. I think they are also suffering with the 'Chairman Syndrome' up there with a certain Mr Ashley who appears to be making a grand job of destroying the club. Anyway, back to the cannon fodder down the road...

Whatever you say about Newcastle you cannot deride their supporters who turn up in huge numbers week in week out to see a load of poo. Norwich put them to shame? Back to Portsmouth.......what a lovely moment in time this is for us to enjoy..

Why does it make him sound like a budgie? Seems to be a fair reflection on the course of events, not unlike that suffered by Rasiak et al. As a Club we showed them little loyalty yet we expect them to show it in return?

Very likely he'll be off I would imagine if he wants to keep his World Cup place, won't want to be playing in a relegation side and conceding goals left right and centre. Oh let the fun begin.

I hope the words won't be too long, I have trouble keeping up as it is.

The good news keeps on coming as Hart confirms doubts about Belhadj future http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11661_5457702,00.html ...still on the upside look at the quality of the trialists they have (not new news I know but still enjoyable)
