I always found him too dour and thus I would think it would be difficult to motivate players.

Anglia were top notch for me. You can get them down in price and they left the site immaculate when they finished. Three days later the fitters came back just to make sure I was happy with their work. I would use them again.

Hope you had a great Mick and invited Garry LIne-akeeeeer.

After admiring him for years, I met him with my son in the Hospitality Lounge at the Dell in the early 80's for the first time. He fetched our drinks on that day and was mixing and chatting with all the guests. What a man.

Jack Cork is an excellent player but as RobM said, he plays a similar role as Wanyama. No one can ignore that Wanyama is so much stronger than Jack and I cannot see him starting regularly unless Wanyama or Morgan are injured.

Even older when you remember watching Derek Reeves play v Cherries at Dean Court in the Third Division South

I seem to recall that the FL made conditions that their monthly management accounts were to be submitted, 'er.. monthly. Is anybody ,who knows one of the fan "owners" aware that this transparency is being complied with?

The compensation and the extra Salary to get anyone to take on the Skates is going to burn a hole in their budget. I would love to see the monthly management accounts. Anyone ITK?

Do not worry about the Tories. The bookies and the opinion polls are never wrong. Only a couple of years to go.

We will be renamed "The Bluebirds" next.

We do not need another goalkeeper. AB has been superb this season. A stupid thing to do but it did not cost us the game.

Marians was on SSN lunchtime speaking about Adam. I did not realise he had such a deep voice.

We played Yeovil in a pre-season friendly at Huish Park after our relegation from the Premiership. Marians was having a long conversation with Gary Johnson during the warm up, who was then on his first spell as manager of the Glovers. He certainly did recommend Marians to Saints and we got him for about £600K I seem to recall. What a bargain and what a player.

One should never go back.

Irons are notorious for tripping the switches. It may be that your system was overloaded and Mrs CS ironing only aggrevated it. Next time, have a look what else was on at the same time eg, Washing machine, electric fire, loads of lights etc. This may save you buying a new iron!

Rednapp just cannot stop spending. Its in his genes.

Whilst the Trust must be worried about the value of their 60% share holding now because of these results, the remaining 40% of shareholders( Moth, Patridge, McInnes & Co) must be in the depths of despair.PUP!

Included in Debtors are £10282K "Football related debtors " and in Current Liabilities £4619K CVA Creditors which are secured on the debtors. The bank loan shown as £4m+ is the CVA Creditors, it is just that the Companies Register does not have a section to include these, so it places under Bank Loans. I notice on the accounts that there is a contigent liability to pay another £3m purchcase price if returned to the PL by 30.6.22 and this is reduced to £1m if by 30.6.24 but we knew all about this.

Our lads played as well as all the others. Chile were just too quick for us in all positions that had us struggling at times.

May be money due from Fans for shares and Golden Share but in any case almost matched by Current Liabilities

Interesting that Portsmoth City Council created their charge on 19th April but did not register it until 17th October. Still showing on Companies register along with 3 from PFA, 1 from South Point Finance. Accounts as as 30.6.13 show: T/O 370 K Cost of sales 169K GP 201K Wages 384K Loss after depr -514K Fixed Assts 3428K Stock 11K Trade debtors 84K Cash 2,881K other debtors 11496K Total C/A 14473K Trade Creditors 345K Short Term Fin 2675K Misc Curr Liabs 10246K Bank Loans 4266K Other LTFin 100K Share cap. 39K P/L Reserve loss -514K Sdy Reserves 3388K Interesting to see wages more than T.O. and borrowings more than Capital. A bank managers nightmare! However this is more or less on formation and before season started. We shall have to wait a year before we can get a feel of the accounts.

I cannot understand why anybody is surprised at this. What was rthe latest number of U turns since the Election--75?

And to think if he had signed for us, Luke Shaw may not have come through so early. I know who I would rather have now. Funny old game Saint.

I rememebr Phil Dowd was ref when we drew with Newcastle 3-3 (when Sir Bobby was their Manager) at SMS a few years ago and he was superb that day as was the game.

Not in the late 50's & 60's. The side close to the players entrance was always a bog in the winter because it never got any sun!.
