the points penalty isn't confirmed until the PL meet next week. Personally they haven't got a chance of overturning the points penalty IMO - if they stay at 16 points, have a good end to the season stay in the division....the PL will be sued left, right and center by the relegated teams. they just want to get rid of them - i can imagine them giving them some parachute payments, and letting them sell players - but there is no way you can say ''don't take away our points'' - everyone else gets points taken off them, get over it.

they won't

being docked 9 points ''early days, we don't know if that will happen yet - discussions with PL next week'' errr, hello? it's the rules - don't you dare PL...

Milan on SSN...

nah - that's Tanya Robins in her get-away vehicle

time to look back on a few ''first half'' highlights i think http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1207172/Sulaiman-Al-Fahim-insists-Portsmouth-takeover-track--ambassador-Diego-Maradona-100m-spend.html That was a good laugh..

Corp, back in june - oh dear

just confirmed by storrie....he isn't standing down YET but he will ''tender his notice'' once the club is sold. so he'll never go then.

right footed i think, he could probably play in AMC higher up the leagues, but i would never play him in the middle in this division. He'd get gobbled up tbh.

all being discussed in the greatest thread on the inteweb - http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?p=630128#post630128

watch him come out tomorrow and say ''i've had a change of heart, i owe this club to stick with it until the end''

just seen that - apparently they have 200k outstanding in tax, and are 800k in debt. that may seem a small sum to us, but a club like b'mouth have no way at all of paying that off at the moment. May be the end for them if they don't raise outside funds within 4 weeks...

it should never have been lifted in the first bloody place. point of putting it in place now? after the transfer window? good one PL.

i wouldn't be either tbh, and i'd be quite ****ed if it happens. Don't want us to turn into a QPR.

great post - agree with everything there.

OMG

''Maybe if the Revenue hadn't brought the action that they did, we might have carried on, who knows?'' wtf? yep, sorry peter - we should let you continue not paying your bills. bloody inland revenue for wanting their money. morons

he's a good little player too, may be available in the summer if charlton stay down.

i think we're still lacking in there. someone who will get the ball down and get us passing, someone who will drive forward from the middle and get goals. i.e danns....maybe we'll revisit it in the summer

i think it's far more sensible to judge him over after an 18 month stretch - which would take us up to xmas. we'll then have a clear idea of where we're going. i don't think that's unreasonable tbh

Totally. but i think people are saying that 4 points isn't a complete disaster, it's bloody disappointing - but it's not a disaster. still got lots of games coming up we can win (inc. 2 home games) for what it's worth i don't think we will make the playoffs, but i expect us to finish between 9th-11th.

completely spot on IMO. that's exactly where we fall short in games like this, we just don't control the midfield.

it's all about perspective, which certain people can't grasp. you're right, it isn't a bad set of results in all honesty still unbeaten in 2010. if we beat wallsall and hudersfield we'll be on our way again.

yep +1, got my ticket for Saturday, can't wait!
