Just a little trailer before he signs:

Unlucky for them...mental as it is, Mackail-Smith would prob cost upwards of £4m, compared with £1.5m for sharp. Go figure.

He's not a prolific scorer at this level. Would be a waste of good cash.

Davis Richardson - Fonte - Martin - Fox De Ridder - Cork - Morgan - Puncheon Guly - Lambo bench - Bart, Harding, Jaidi, Lee, Sharp

If you're on about Sharp, then yes, it is. Medical passed, fee agreed, just has to sign on the dotted line. Doncaster are already looking to spend the fee.

Whilst we're spending millions on a proven goal scorer, Portsmouth have failed to pay their monthly wages. Spare a thought, actually, no - don't.

Imminent then. Keep checking Sibleys feed!

Because we don't need the money and clubs will not pay what we want for him. End of story.

Is he the guy that scored that cracker against us in August? And seems to continuously score crackers..

errr, nope - not what so ever. We will not loose anyone.

Any names? Assume Vardy is one.

reluctantnicko Alan Nixon Some pretty worying news for Pompey coming out. Mirror may have something shortly.

Random chaplow..

Loads fine for me.

If true, then he's an incredibly refreshing footballer - and from how he dealt with his sad loss last year, he seems to be a very good character.

James Coppinger, the Donny player, is tweeting good luck messages to sharp now.

Now i've never done that before...after days of contract talking..

He took a very nasty tackle actually and was stretched off back in September IIRC, was out for around 6 weeks - they feared longer at the time, so he's obviously a quick healer. Don't see any issues with this tbh. Just waiting for the announcement, even though Donny have kind of already announced it.

Personally I think Sharp would have a similar impact in the SPL.

We now have a real quality team, with depth everywhere. Maybe CB has a slight question mark over it, but that can be fixed in the loan window if Jos is out longer term.

This. Based up on what Dean Saunders has said, this is complete bar the shouting. He's already talking about reinvesting the fee.

Yep, exactly. Tremendous value for money and makes me wonder why we seemed determined to splash out £6m on a similar player.

gordonsimpson Gordon Simpson Told that Sharp's personal terms were agreed before he set off for Southampton. #saintsfc

No where near. £1.8m hits his release clause.
