Pamplemousse

That particular quote was from our old friend Corporate Ho

On POL they have a 'reasons to be cheerful thread'

They got relegated for a reason. We should be aiming to sign players of a much higher quality.

At least Brighton wouldn't be as annoying as the Bournemouth fans. Brighton have their own rivalry with Palace so that would keep them occupied. Perhaps next season will be our year when we finally get to play the skates in the cup.

http://www.uefa.com/memberassociations/uefarankings/club/ Yes it has improved. It will also improve if Liverpool win the Europa League As it stands, our ranking is 16.756

More evidence of the anti-Saints bias from the BBC.

Please please PLEASE can we get them in one of the cups next season

History could have turned out so different... http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/p/portsmouth/4380699.stm

It was in the last minute as well! A glorious ending that was predicted in this thread. We all wanted that an agonising last minute play-off defeat would finish off their promotion hopes

Will the HNW individuals be willing to invest more in the club? Is it worth the risk? And will the fans be happy to see their shares diluted and reduce in value?

Another quote from POL. This is from their equivalent of alpine

POL quotes (all directly copied, spelling errors and all)

I'm on the case

With Grimsby promoted, they can enjoy a Fish Derby next season

Of course, the referee and Sky was involved in a massive Football League conspiracy, otherwise, without the huge following of skates, the other clubs would go bankrupt #fact

Shame sky aren't showing some solemn skates. Those are the pictures we all want to see

We don't need rallyboy. Pompey write the jokes themselves

We hoped for an agonising play-off defeat and they have not disappointed us!! HAHAHAHAHAHA

YESSSS!!!! IN STOPPAGE TIME

Plymouth hit the post! Soooo close

Plymouth are getting closer

When we clinched promotion at Home Park we got given the entire stand. Pompey have about 1/3 of that stand.

A lot of things still have to be decided with cup finals etc. but here are some of the teams who have also qualified for the Europa League Directly for the group stages Athletic Bilbao Schalke Mainz Inter Milan Braga Feyenoord Standard Liege Konyaspor Qualifying rounds Celta Vigo Hertha Berlin Fiorentina Arouca Rio Ave Nice Lille AZ Basaksehir Slovan Liberec Pandurii Targu Jiu Rijeka And many many more If Rangers win the Scottish Cup they enter the 2nd qualifying round. Would be a laugh if we drew them at some stage

I'd like us to not sell most of our best players in the summer and for Koeman to sign a new contract.

If Man Utd win the FA Cup, we're in the group stages. If Palace win the cup final and Man Utd finish above us in the table, we drop into the 3rd qualifying round. So, either a Man Utd win at Wembley or a Cherries win at Old Trafford would do for us.
