  1. The thing about Spurs is... yes they are a bigger club than us, but not that much bigger. It's like dumping your girlfriend because she's fat and ending up with someone not quite as fat.

     

    I would say that the distance between Spurs and Saints is smaller than, say, Spurs and Arsenal. It's as if he left us for Man United or Barcelona when at the end of the day he left for a club that outperformed Saints by a total of 4 points and two places. A club that isn't even guaranteed top 6, much less top 4.

  2. It would appear from news reports this morning the Russia's President Putin must also be a Pompey native as he's suggesting that Sep Blatta be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Either that of their delusion is spreading :-)

     

    Russia is the Pompey of countries.

  3. I wish him the best if he goes.

     

    Having said this, we've done the big clubs so many times I find myself disappointed when anything close to a fair price is negotiated. £12.5m in this situation is very good, but... my God I wanted to do them over again. £15m up front, 1 year on contract or no. Maybe I am dreaming but after all this is the £35m Andy Carroll club.

  4. Is Pompey Online still a virtual gated community or have they started letting new members join?

     

    I tried to set up an account a few years back so that I could watch the hilarity but it seemed that they were so paranoid about scummaaaaas signing up (rightly in my case), that they just blocked everybody.

     

    Is there a right of passage to prove that you really are a skate?

     

    Biometrics.

     

    If you only have five fingers on each hand, you're out.

  5. If you're talking about people topping themselves in the North West, Manchester is the place.

     

    Liverpool is unremarkable on the suicide front - at national average, the surrounding areas are up to 25% lower than the national average.

     

    I would have thought Portsmouth would be highest. Then again, it must be awfully hard to make a noose with webbed fingers.

  6. The Southampton Arms is probably the best pub in London and where I intending to spend an hour before the game next Tuesday. I will thank you not to mention this to the riff-raff.

     

    Good choice sir. I'd be there myself but I'm leaving straight from work.

     

    Probably will hit the Euston Tap afterward.

  7. I think he's on a hiding to nothing, with the quality they have everyone expects them to beat the smaller teams comfortably and with style which I think they will do but for him to have the same outstanding success with them that he had with us he will need to be pushing very hard for top 4, that's what the fans and chairman expect and I just don't think the team has it in them. I expect him to join the long list of spurs failures shortly!

     

    The 'long list of Spurs failures' isn't good enough to quench my bitter thirst for his failure. I want his name alongside Christian Gross as a massive mistake, a cringeworthy laughing stock.
