you couldn't blame him for suffering some sort of mental breakdown after what he has had to suffer, playing with idiots week in week out would wear you down, and let's face it the rest of us haven't come through the last few seasons mentally unscathed now have we, and we are just watching. Most weeks he has had a front row seat for an ugly defensive horror show. Lets hope it is a blip and he gets it back together, and if he doesn't he will just blend in with the rest who already have 'the stare'.... flashbacks, choppers over the paddy fields.....the last minute corner to defend....Charlies at the back post unmarked....

I think we are all ready to accept that if our season was a horse it would have been shot by now. I am also ready to look to next season in league one, so people with more financial knowledge than me may be able to advise if I am being too simplistic but would this be the plan? - We go into administration very soon, that wipes debt, confirms our relegation which looks certain anyway, it sheds unwanted directors and opens the way for a serious investor to come in to salvage an ailing business without the current stumbling blocks of Lowe and Wilde. The value of the business would be low (how ironic), and as long as the current regime doesn't become the new investors we have some hope of progress, though I fear it will be more in the style of Leeds than Leicester. Any new investor would be looking to build the club on and off the pitch, it is in their interests to do so, which is another thing that baffles me, what on earth are Wilde and Lowe getting out of this at the moment? It cannot be fun watching your shareholding dwindling by the minute as you preside over the worst-managed business since the Chocolate Teapot Company went under in the summer of 76. If these things come to pass in some form, it means that by October we could be having 25,000 gates watching us toying with play off places, (knowing from experience that it will all go pear-shaped later against someone we have never heard of) - BUT we will have our club back and a board that shares our enthusiasm for progress. The alternative is we stumble on and by Christmas the Lowe and Wilde freak show is three off the bottom of league one being watched by 5,000 fans in one stand - AND several property developers, eyeing waterfront apartments as soon as the crunch passes... Am I bonkers or does plan A sound possible and more cheerful than last night?

where to start when you want to rant?!:mad: A proper sickener, right down there with Boro, Everton and Villa. And anyone who thinks that we are suddenly going to string five home wins together should be in Broadmoor, I can see no way on earth that this team/coach/board combination is going to turn it round now. Prove me wrong please, but why on earth should our form suddenly improve?? Please prove me wrong!!! But like the last time we went down, we all saw it coming in the September and it was no effing surprise in May, that is the worst thing, it is like being on an oil tanker that is going to hit another one currently forty miles away and Captain Lowe keeps telling you it will be fine, look again!! At least this time put us out of our misery, pop a cartridge in the duck gun and call in the administrators to make a clean start in Lg one. But oh no, just when we think we hit rock bottom, some ruddy faced arse is going to preside over a predictable relegation, and then decide in the summer that we could start next year on minus ten. Go on surprise me with one more mismanagement joke at our expense. I have felt bad about staying away and denying Lowe my cash and the club funding this year, but he has chucked it all away, TWICE, and continues to do so every day, I want to support the club but I refuse to supply any more 'director's expenses'. We have turned out in numbers and they have failed, we have stayed away and they have failed. What now? I see no chance of a great escape, but am open enough to hope that someone proves me wrong, BUT it will have to be at Watford, and then for about four matches on the trot if it is to happen. Crunch time is here, it has to happen now.

as a new poster could I clear myself of any pr-spin-suspicion by pointing out that I think Rupert has dragged the club to its knees. Twice. But on a positive note, I became so annoyed with the situation that I eventually registered on here on Friday to let off some steam. Within a few hours we had a managerial change and the next day Dyer ended Pompey's glorious little era, so I feel that joining the debate has been most helpful. I feel better already, three points tomorrow, and we are on our way...

the points gathering? Hopefully tomorrow night.

yes I for one was certainly uplifted by his rallying cry, it was as inspirational as Churchill - the four legged one. But then again I don't care what he says or does as long as he delivers points, forget the spin, points are all that matters now.

A royal pardon and freedom of the city, let the boy drive his sheep wherever he wants, in fact give him yer phones and wallets - could turn out to be the highlight of our season.
