  1. what a surprise people wanting to dance on our grave. For fans stuck in Austria it wouldnt effect you like the ones who turn up every week. Administration is something that the club would never easily recover from and its madness to think we could start next season on minus 10 and not get relegated again as the club and fans do not have the stomach for it.
  2. I thought it said British Rockery. Now we'd be leaders in making one of those
  3. it depends on whose figures you go by. The press or the ever reliable sources of Corp!!!
  4. A man of conviction then. So Sol is not a big player. LOL.
  5. In my opinion a 'big player' is one who is on massive wages and recognised international name.Sol is a guarenteed starter and a lynchpin of the defence as is James who is Englands no1 keeper... Lets see how many leave and then we can go for the nitty gritty.
  6. great business IF TRUE and woulld be mad not to take it whatever their financial position.It is odd how the transfer figure was only 9m yueaterday and today its 24
  7. Dont come up with that the thread was dead and you answered 6 days later. I notice you are back now that the Diarra deal looks a high figure but gone for days on end when your back was against the wall. Your big talk and the takeover was certain made you disappear. As for the thread on the MS I dont recall Crouchs 3 chances, they were not as clear as the ones missed by Milan. Anyway your fans have returned to normal only turning up to watch the top teams. A club that has only recently won the FA cup still cannot fill a 20000 ground.It is pathetic and deep down you know it is true but will bluster on that it is normal..lol
  8. James, Sol and Krankjar are big players for you, well they are in my eyes. I dont expect you to include people like Davis etc So we will wait and see but I count the three listed above as big players especially as they are on massive wages

Show me hard facts we have to sell, that is facts that have not come from a jackanory journo. If you can find facts then also include tony adams comments today that we are in fact going to have funds in Jan. We have agreed to sign Belhadji for £3M in January ! But we are skint - remember that, I'll be back Jan 31st to resurrect your post [end quote] Ill take the bet. How do we go about it? I will be happy for you to contact Baj or Granty to put your money up so we know it gets paid and I will do the same. You tell me what you count as your top players and we can then get a list to make sure it is fair to both parties.Any winnings due to me can be made payable to Naiomi house childrens hospice. Leyt me know how to procede Just in case you missed my post from yesterday
  10. perhaps 10k pw wage rise may help
  11. No just a tease BTF. I have a bit of a problem with the cosy public sector as I hate seeing the waste of all our taxes.I know there are many fantastic people in the sector and I have no problem with them but there seems to be a culture of mismanagement and squandering money on jobsworth schemes. I understand that is generalisation, but it is such a massive animal it is hard not to generalise. It will never change, I cant see any government ever having ther guts to take the civil service on. The government wont rock the boat as the inconveinient governmental mistakes will become the potential to be leaks.The classic case of you scratch my back etc As for you BTF I have faith that you do a cracking job.I do hope you find some massive mistakes and bring the instigators to task, and not allow them to go on early retirement and a massive pension.
  12. PFC=Wigan of the south did you notice the Fratton end was empty in added time sunday? Those Pompey til I die fans must have had a mass suicide as they all had gone. More plastic at Pompey than at Tupperware party.
  13. Will the auditor be cut then? A mistake that big really is not something that should be allowed to go by. I wonder how many other of these things are out there to be found out. It is a bizarre time in our lives.
  14. I was relaying Jan had said to Martyin Tyler a fortnight ago.
  15. where were the auditors? Who is in charge of overseeing these things. What with the banks not knowing how to run businesses and the govenment allowing these co## ups with the publics money whatever next

  17. Derry I understand and agree with you.I was one early on who questioned lallanas ability ie in shooting and end product. I also do not wish to criticise him too harshly as the fans love to make a hero and villain. DMG is the villain while AL has the fancy footwork that gets him out of jail when it comes to fair criticism. Lallana is still learning and does have some wonderful skill he just needs to be coached into making the right decisions and learn to make the difference in the 18 yard box not on the halfway line.he also needs to learn to challenge for aerial balls. I want him and DMG to develop into the players they have to potential to become and so am trying to hold off slagging any of them off.
  18. I would have liked BD here before Jan. We have now made the decision to go with the youth, something that financially is correct. NP I hae respect for but dont see him as anything special. People will of course point to Leicesters results but they like Pompey had MM's millions behind them and so have not had to sell their players. They have a very good squad that should have easily stayed up,. NP has got disipline into the side and they will get promotion unless they start to falter like most clubs do in the second half of the season when leading for so long. I think we have a road chosen and we will keep to it, perhaps having a change of manager but the same players in the main.
  19. perahaps Stoke want to be the new saints, Higginbottom, Delap Surman and Lallana ..oh and Andrew Davies. we'll probably do a straight swap those 2 for Pulis's son
  20. Jan told Tyler that he thought Euell couldnt read the young players minds in how they passed and played.Or words to that effect. To me that was terrible man management as it made Euell look either stupid or not any good.Some will say that is correct, but to me he is what we need , although I didnt see him play at Burnley and so may be wrong.
  21. I could not believe what Jan was supposed to have said about him to the commentator before the Palace game. If Jan does not rwate him then perhaps he will go but I myself have faith in his professionalism and will to be a major part in helping us out of the mire
  22. why?
  23. I tell you why he has not been ousted by us.If Mugabe was ever assinated by someone of whatever creed or colour the finger would be pointed at the whites/British. He is still a revolutionay hero to many of his countrymen after his exploits before Smith gave up power. That would mean a backlash against the white population and a bloodshed that would never be forgiven and so strife will be there forever.He will be allowed to live to a peaceful death.It is sick but politics, I have been told our government has stopped a couple of attempts on his life for this very reason.
  24. I didnt know Scargill lived in Spain
  25. Kevin we live in a blame society and so people need someone to blame. DMG is the current fall guy. Fans dont wish to see the plusses, although to be fair there are a lot who are supportive.3 weeks ago BWP had loads of threads about him.It seems to become a hero you have ot be loaned out and then you become a must have legend.
