The Higg's boson explains why Alpine has such a large mass. I don't know about the Higg's bosun. He's probably a Pompey fan, anyway...

You obviously spent too much time reading the "Bible" and not enough reading "Origin of the Species". On second thoughts, don't bother. Alpine hasn't and his life is testament to the benefits of ignorance....

Leave it out. It's not like the c*** invented it...

I know what you mean. That Alexander Fleming....what a tool and don't get me started on f***ing Charles Darwin...

Proof of funds was required, not idle boasts by a bunch of dreamers, led by that well known Southampton administrator, Antony Fanshawe...

The Times this morning. Didn't see it posted elsewhere

Right, I'm switching your webcam on until you apologise.

I have no problem with people expressing their emotions on this site, if it helps them with the pain of losing. Luckily, the opinions of Internet geeks who have never had the football talent, to be worthy of cleaning the boots of one of our academy players, are going to have absolutely no effect on our prospects of promotion. Very few of them are even going to be present, to cheer the team on, when they conclude one of the best seasons I can remember. Not that they'd cheer that much, if they could afford the air fare... I happen to love our club and if not this season, we will reach the promised land soon. It is meant to be...

We're still going up. Then this loss will be forgotten...

and.... I feel a "Reading Takeover Saga" thread coming up.....

I did, actually:

and....

Of course, I did keep the text of the Antonov story before the account was suspended:

I was looking at it Monday, Steve, particularly the Antonov assasination attempt and those allegedly responsible. Today? "This Account Has Been Suspended"

Right, I'm switching your webcam on until you apologise.

Wolves, Wimbledon, Man City and Watford have achieved successive promotions.

I was told that an offer of around £2.5M was going to be made last week by Charles Lissack, the ex-Watford director, who is heading a consortium. As they were introduced to the "investment opportunity" by our old friend Tony Lynam, I don't think Pompey posters should get too excited....

It's fun to watch the vultures feasting on the rotting corpse.

In order to offer shares to the general public, a company must be a public limited company (plc). The key requirements are that the company’s name and memorandum should state that it is a plc, and that it should have an issued share capital of at least £50,000 sterling or its euro equivalent. If a plc wants to offer shares to the public, it must generally issue a prospectus meeting detailed legal requirements, and will also need to comply with the requirements of any exchange on which the shares are to be traded. The company will need to appoint advisers to handle this complex process.

Why, indeed...

It's not Brian Howe...

£2.5M. About £2.5M more than they are worth, in my opinion.

Alright, you got me. This is a minor part of what I heard. The main story is that there will be a bid for Pompey next week and I know exactly who will be making the bid. Not sure how true the rumour is about Saints, but think it is very credible, given the source. The Pompey bid is definite, though...

Just heard that Saints are up for sale for £75M on promotion to the Premier League. Anyone else heard the same rumour?
