Ump I will accept that, but as you know not all are as understanding. If the club sold those 2 and not able to say why as other decisions then the fans would be in uproar.

Poortvliet Ill give you, Robertsomn was part of the Dyer part exchange which fell through, forget not he scored the winning goal in one game.Smith was pretty good last night it has been reported, Forecast Pulis I have not seen them play and so cant comment and Gasmi looks not ready,, but they were peanuts and would not make any difference either way.In fact Pulis was a makeweight in the Andrew Davies deal and so that was good business.

You are wrong about the Radio station. That made much invisible earnings that cant be quantified. Having the clubs propaganda/news/PR being broadcast over the south of England was superb. If Pompey were the first to do it and we had Southampton violated by their radio waves we'd be up in arms. We could well afford it at the time and it was a long term investment. Nothing wrong with showing confidence in our future.Another medium to sell match tickets merchandise and feel part of a successful club , all part of the package. I would like you to stand up to WGS's and Souness's face and tell them that they let RL dictate and i will call the ambulance. I doubt they would like their integrity or standing questioned

WAS a Saints fan, i think Lowe said he was there until 2008. Nobody has picked it up yet and surprised the anti's haven't when he spoke about the Barclays man being a fan he said 'that is the problem having a fan run the club' ,he seemed to falter slightly as he realised he had left an open goal..he has been a fan for the last 12 years.Lol but I now what he meant as that fan who allows his heart to rule his head.

I have mentioned that elsewhere Jonah, but to have peace, the fans (not me by the way) would like acceptance of his part.To bundle it together just looks like deflection. His assessment after his removal is fair and correct.Some of the anti Lowe people on here have softened their stance slightly and perhaps also accepting that now it is coming into the open the disservice other people have done to the club.

feling generous today Jonah...only kidding Draino but I wonder in 3 weeks time if those buyers dont stump up waht your thoughts will be then. You could go and express interest the whole of the memebers of Pompey online could do so, it means nothing except every enquiry is a cost to the club that the Administrator will be delighted to chage for.

Um we were already desperately looking to cut the xpenditure where we could, how then would you say we could easily get money? All of a sudden selling our young players has become ok has it? You rightly in the past have said that as we had such a poor quality team fans do not turn up due to that. How would you defend the decision to have sold another raft of players in the jan window? Again we would not have been told the sensitive information why the club had done so and we would be on meltdown.The crowds would have dropped further. I was disappointed that Lowe did not mention the relegation being part of the problem and grudgingly said that all the boards had a little blame. When fans eventually meet in the middle ground and fully accept that ALL the past incumbents have let us fans down and it was not all down to Lowes tenure Im sure we will all get on building the club again. All gone is the only way.

If Barclays had not called the overdraft in we may have got a loan that could make the difference.Just 1 goal scored or goal stopped might make the difference.You have had us relegated rfor months and will come bakc with the told you so quotes.It is far from over and whilst it is now close to being the truth we still have fight unlike some fans.

His assessment after 2006 was fair, his refusal not to mention the cost of relegation leaves him open to accusation of trying to gloss it over. As i have constantly stated he is not the only one to blame but his reluctance to accept that he'd played a part is very disappointing.

and where are all Samuels articles regarding his beloved WHU docking of points and relegation for playing Tevez????? If fans think that by finding a loophole that may save us just because Lowe did it amaze me.Lowe got it right in his interview on Sky, whatever he does is criticised. If the loophole does save us from a deduction then the PLC did have its positives.

They threw him out as he ate all the cakes and biscuits before the pot of tea arrived

Thats the stuff Ginge Lol

You know at Tescos when the wine is full price you walk past it, but when they do 3 bottles for £10 you cant get enough bottles in the trolley, well that is why there is 19 interested parties.Do you get my drift?

A serious buyer will surely factor in that we are a L1 side and offer accordingly

i only lived there for a short period before moving away. It was Rushington and so Mayfair compared to the rest of Totton

I tell you what, Ill give you the tenner.

Until that fans stop blaming him for everything then you will have people putting up the different view.

Jonah, if those are as open ended as they at first look it is scary. On first look it reads like the FSA drew it up!!

Johnny i think you will find that there were no dividends paid post rlegation as there were no profits

Thank god Im not Jill Dando as I have a stalker.

Delia Smith is running the other line and Billy Davies is the referee

You should go to the stock market and put the idea forward Johnny. I dont know what Oracle's business plan is, do they give a percentage to charity? They must have a particular reason as I dont see why they would have £m's sloshong around doing nothing.

And your excuse why it didnt happen under any other tenure? I dont doubt that the Wilde bunch and LC didn't try for investment.I know for a fact RL did, unless he was doing the stadium tours

Fair point, I do hope the board did not vote in Fred Goodwin type packages before they left.

Without a doubt I questioned my support of RL when Duncan made his powerful post about Lowe. Had the post been put up recently it would not make a difference to me as he has stated his position.That is right and correct he has done so, but it was something that made a lot sit back and review the position at that time. There was a rush of sentiment of support for Wilde bunch and they used that to pressure all the major parties, even LC who was doubtful was swayed.I recall when he put up that he may side with Lowe there was an outcry and that may well have coloured LC decision.
