  1. but even more scary the bloody judge fell for it!!! Conspiracy i say
  2. I havent been for a couple of seasons as i resent paying £50 to subsidise players on massive wages with the inability to pass t their own player within 5 yards. The players who get you off your seat are worth it but so many players are fortunate and find themselves in Pl sides and on massive overpaid salaries. I had rarely missed a game in 45 years until now. It is not the case of being able to afford, its a case of not wanting to afford. I can sit back from a distance and see how the fans are being treated as mugs and squeezed all the time. I normally have no time for the Scouse fans but i have to raise my hat to them on this occasion, although iam sceptical as to the small print. Yes they may not categorise each game but perhpas put all games at the mid price which will then become a raise.
  3. the sending off and now he has a 'reputation' will cost our club £5m on the transfer fee we will get. As for the 'horror tackle' quote, that is laughable. I like the way Bertrand did not roll over and play act, but i do sometimes wonder if we played fire with fire. Cheaters do prosper in the modern game
  4. Funny that now Harry is not around Sky deadline day has become a non event lol
  5. Bale...wow that would be wonderful and whilst it is zero chance the odds are better than Ricardo Fuller turning up!!!
  6. i can't believe you didnt put Pompey in the list, they played AC Milan you know. I think your choices are pretty spot on, but I cant get Blackburn to be on that list. Yes they did win the title but that was unusual circumstances due to Jack Walkers money. Perhaps Wolves as whilst they didnt win much in the period, they were there and abouts for a long time
  7. exactly why stay loyal to anyone. If Lallana does for Liverpool what KD did for us they will soon love him. The difference being that Lallana doesnt have the class that KD has. He was not the worlds best keeper but he put in many performances that gained us points that like RL's goals helped gain us promotion.I dont know KD but i have heard many of his actions not only on the pitch from someone there that makes me admire him.
  8. posts like yours are the perfect explanation why players like lallana etc dont bother to stay loyal to a team as at the end of the day so many fans are ungrateful ######
  9. Are the Falklands in the Argentinian territorial waters? If so they have fair and rightful claim if not the island is independent and can ask for protection or rule by anyone they like I would have thought.
  10. When I saw the title 'comedians' I thought it was another thread on Pompey and their fans lol
  11. 'These pillagers were intent on finally destroying Pompey with their greed but they hadn’t reckoned on the formation of the Pompey Rebel Alliance'. Funnily enough the greed was overlooked by the Rebel Alliance until famine arrived, now of course the baddies who bought them the glory are now seen as the villains. All involved had their part to play, the owners, the players , the fans and also the News who enjoyed eating off the pillagers table

    Footy Leaks

    When are the leaks going to cooncentrate on pompey of their glory years. There must be loads of stuff that would make decent reading

    Footy Leaks

    Tadic mentioned in one of the first ones!!!!
  14. I assume them going further than us in the cup will mean there will be shirts embroidered with this below their club badge. Fair play though they beat Ipswich over 2 legs and it is now a minnows versus giants Fa cup match. Bound to earn plenty of TV and attendance revenue
  15. I think a lot on here wished you were at West Ham as well lol
  16. I think Saint Lards post is correct, the pitch normally looks like a bowling green and te other day I wondered if we had changed our groundsman. Whilst it has been the wettest December I suspect we have had other months of heavyrainfall and the pitch being able to cope. Personally if we play as we have lets leave it like it is , lets go back to the days of the Baseball ground!!! Distant memories but it was a magic time to watch football
  17. Lol CB, you made me chuckle
  18. I have been critical about the club recently,but this is a great signing. I know that he is injury prone but IMO worth the risk. If we can get 2-3 seasons from him then he is an absolute bargain. Certainly cheered me up
  19. Surely Reed or Gallagher must be, reading on here they are fantastic
  20. Prices should drop but at least 30% not go up. Fans produce the atmosphere that have made the PL what it is. if the grounds were empty Sky would not want to pay big bucks as the product would not be as good. Anyway if we did pay more we would be told it was going to be ploughed in and spent but doubt it would be
  21. Duncan, I and others have not written him off, but surely you can see how bizarre it is that we ink he might start becoming a Harry Kane now. In time perhaps but the team need somebody to start slotting in goals now. To have a raw forward who did not pull up stumps at MK Dons is hardly awe inspiring. 2seasons time then we may see something, but now in the PL???
  22. it was a perfectly sensible thing to think, if he was scoring for fun in L1 then we would all think that we should give him a chance but!!!!! Kingsland is quite right IMO and I know like us all hope that he becomes a big star for us,but not being first choice for a L1 club hardly inspires confidence especially if we need some goals
  23. Nice man, but I know people wont have it but he failed as he should have won either L1 or the Championship with us. NC did the correct thing and got rid as he wasnt up to the PL. Time will tell how good he is at his new club
  24. that is a fair observation about the cost players. Are you saying that in the main we haven't signed also rans? It does put into focus how poor our club is at buying players and their values. you also made a statement that Cuco was signed by Koeman period, perhaps you could furnish us with the evidence to back up your certainty? I ask as it is so unusual for you to actually make such a statement
