No it isn't

As if

http://www.wembleystadium.com/brilliantfuture/thenewdesign/keyfeatures.htm The Sliding Roof and the Pitch "One of the key challenges of the design team was to keep the famously high standard of the Wembley pitch while, at the same time, designing a stadium with stands that are higher and closer to the pitch than the original stadium and give better uninterrupted views. Many new stadia have suffered from poor pitches as the stands in the stadia can leave large sections of the pitch in almost permanent shadow. Grass demands direct sunlight to grow effectively. For this reason, the sliding roof remains an integral part of the design for the new Wembley. Options such as a palletised pitch (moving a patchwork pitch in and out of the Stadium between events) or regularly re-laying the pitch were rejected as inappropriate for Wembley. Instead, computer models have been made of air movement and sunlight on the existing pitch and the unique moving roof designed for the new Stadium." Yeah, right furkin eedjets.

Love the garbled footballer speak: "The results we have got lately have given us more confidence and given us the smell of our aim, it's in our hands, and we're working hard and concentrating as much as possible to do that."

Thanks St Patrick

The real issue to my mind is not the length of the thread but its title. I see no takeover...

They're good at PR http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/hampshire/8505269.stm

Blah blah blah, they might as well have taken it straight from Pravda or the OS.

Better at what and how do you know?

Duuh they can't say can they

You what?

Errr why exactly?

Don't bother it wasn't funny

Many thanks for that

Might've known it grrr.

Check out this highly amusing (in places) festive satire on Pompey's plight:

Come on be honest had you heard of him before he joined us?

He's been told by the surgeon who performed the original operation that if he plays football he may never walk again - so I doubt you'll see him roughing it in the lower leagues.

Raw Wallace was good.

Matt Paterson is 40-1 on Victor Chandler

How to make a drama out of a crisis

As usual...

How did the Bartoz get on?

There's also an interesting quote from Al whatsisname at the bottom of that article expressing his disapproval of Hart's sacking. What a way to run a club...

From what I've seen he is very poor. I expect he'll just turn out to be mediocre like the rest of them.
