I just feel we could all do with a reminder of their recent form: LLLLLLLDDDLLLLLLLLL

Well they say a picture is worth a thousand words. That just about wraps it up for the skates then

Now let me see what does today's result make their recent form? Ah yes LLLLLLLDDDLLLLLLLLL And every prospect of another loss when they visit the Monkey Hangers next Tuesday :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Good times. How the skates must wish they'd not gambled their own future for a cup win and lost... Oh.

Bet they didn't see that coming

Highpoint of the season

Not yet but I'm working on it

Well known relativistic effect. The faster a team exceeds expectations, the slower times passes for a stationary observer

Hats off to them for playing City off the pitch

It warms the cockles of my heart, it really does

Scunny are one up, leaving the skates 11 points south of safety. Happy days

Thats pretty good against Swindon.

Get in!

They're now 9 points adrift of safety.

Neil Allen will be insufferable, I'm bracing myself for a thrilling account of how the pluckiest underdogs in the whole world got a point

I note they don't say who they'd like to see a win for

“Doublethink means the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one's mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them.” ― George Orwell, 1984

Can't imagine why any self-respecting club would wish to bar the bestest sports journalist in the whole wide world

I guess we're asking what criteria the judge will use to decide whether PST's valuation of c.£3m is 'fair', or not? I would trust Chinny to have something up his sleeve in that respect, he didn't become a multi-multi-millionaire by failing to take care of business

Bunker update:

The Guardian Sport section has printed a useful summary: http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2013/feb/07/portsmouth-bid-football-league

Cue the Dead Parrot sketch. Again. 'Notice it does not fly so much as plummet...'
