I thought this thread was about Peter Storrie?

I dont think they'll get away with it, it will just be a long lingering slide / death in the lower leagues instead of the quick "head off" that HMRC wanted to deliver?

What does he like to do on a Tuesday or a Saturday again?

Straight fight out between Chelsea, Villa, Spuds/Fulham & Pimpley. I cant see them winning it again, they only did it last time because they played West Brom & Cardiff!

Hope its not reflective of our season!

Good comment at the bottom from CoventryBlueNose Funny how you never read similar views from journalists - Maybe they are scared of finding a landmine under the car?

"Since sasha decided to withdraw funding after the FA cup win" Loose translation - Daddies landmine money is now clean, stop.

"We will draw this." Nope.

You reckon it could be one of those days, you know what I mean?

Karma, Yin & Yan, call it what you will, it all balances out in the end. They have had so much luck in the FA Cup over the last 3 years (draws against lower opposition, goals dissalowed that were fine, etc), they also keep surviving court cases when they are clearly a bunch of crooks materminded by their backseat director of a Gunrunner. Maybe it finally balances out in their next high court appearance when they are sensationally wound up before their semi at wembley? If it does I will still be laughing at xmas!!! :smt026

I heard it was the pie bill that sent them under.

We do it this year or have to try & win in Cardiff all over again? LINK

You must be blind to W*nk over Dowie or did w*nking over Dowie make you blind?

Did you really here "Mike Hunt" or was it Porkies?

Andros the Android, Admiral Lord Nelson, Jackastory, Charlie Dickens, Alan Biley, Twitchy Redknapp - You guys sure took a hell of a beating!

SSN Reporter races outside of court 53 to announce the reasons and make most Pompey Fans just Sh 1t themselves? LOL

"Matthew: HMRC say they support administration in principal but have 3 issues: 1 the validity of administration 2 are administrators independent 3 is admin feasible? They want evidence that funds will be available for administration- club needs £7m until end of march and more than 14m until end of may "

SSN sources - Pompey wont be wound up today, other WUO's may follow?

Not bad for a League One game against Warsaw? Chelsea (Prem) 42K Leicester (Cham) 32K Stoke (Prem) 27K Brum (Prem) 26K Sheff U (Cham) 25K West Brom (Cham) 23K Huddersfield (L1) 22K Bolton (Prem) 21K Saints (L1) 20K Ipswich (Cham) 20K

Claridges thoughts on us from his BBC Blog: Steve, what are your thoughts on Southampton chairman Nicola Cortese putting pressure on manager Alan Pardew by saying results in League One have not been good enough? Peter, England There is no doubt Alan Pardew is under pressure. Southampton have spent an awful lot of money for a League One club and I expected them to be a lot closer to the play-offs than they are. Leeds had a 15 point deduction in 2007/08 but were knocking on the door of the top two before losing in the play-offs. Compare that to Southampton who, even if you add the 10 points they were docked, are nine points off a play-off place this campaign. Norwich 0-2 Southampton But should Pardew's job be under threat? No, not this year. It's too early for him and them - he has only been there since the summer. It's not been a terrible season either; they are through to the Johnstone's Paint Trophy final and you might be surprised how much that means to their fans. Pardew has asked to be judged after 18 months and that is only fair. But, if that is the case, then they have got to be going for the top two next season whatever happens and the play-offs are the very least they should achieve, otherwise his job is in serious danger. When you spend the money he has, you have to accept the pressure that goes with it because people, rightly, expect a return. But I'm not totally sure whether Alan will get it right. He did well at Reading and West Ham but was effectively relegated twice with Charlton and has a lot to prove again now. It will be interesting to see where he and Southampton are in a year's time.

I'll go first, next season isnt the breeze we think it will be but we overtake them by winning next years play off final, May 22nd 2011. They are already relegated to League One by then.

"A reduced TV cash package is not exactly a ray of sunshine in these circumstances!" Arent the prem teams (other tham Pompey:D) about to get a new record amount from next season too?

Two Skates talking in the work lift this morning. One reckoned they'd win the FA Cup and admin would wipe the slate clean, he seemed to think it was a good time to be a Pompey fan. To top that, one of them reckoned with the pressure off they would win the next 12 games & actually stay up!

After reading and agreeing with most of this I have to say that the long toasting thats about to start is rightly deserved?
