Lets B Avenue Posted 10 January, 2015 Share Posted 10 January, 2015 Of course, if Bournemouth were simply looking to release him on a free to get an additional squad place and trim their wage bill a little, the whole thing makes more sense - and it's probably safe to say that Pompey were the highest bidder in terms of contract and salary. Same old same old it seems. He didn't have a squad place as he was on a season-long loan at AFC Wimbledon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pamplemousse Posted 10 January, 2015 Share Posted 10 January, 2015 A good few Portsmyths have resurfaced over on POL tonight Took a look at the uber thread yesterday. They were previously hysterical at the thought of the Tesco store not getting built as it would mean we'd go bust because we were dependent on that money and it would be the end of us. Now apparently it's the worst thing that could ever happen to us because we can't expand Fratton. TBH, it's only about 5 posters that keep that thread going. The occasional sane one wanders on from their main board to call them sad, obsessed ******s, gets a dog load of abuse and then it's back to yet another conspiracy theory for them. Every Scummer I've ever known has always had that bitter and dismissive view of Pompey. It's in their DNA. At home to Bristol Rovers last season some sad idiot hired a plane to fly over Fratton Park with a banner reading "SFC, always looking up at us" That shows how much just being above us in the football pyramid is a success to the pony fiddlers. Why a Premiership team (doing very well this season) would give a monkeys that their rivals in L2 has signed a striker is beyond me. Maybe because no player has ever signed for the scum and said "I'm here because of the fans and the potential of the club" The facts remains PFC have achieved something that many clubs will never do. We have been Champions of England. Not just once but twice. And we are one of few clubs to win it back to back. Scum will never ever be Champions of England and they know it. Even a random competition like the FA Cup we have won more times. Their only arguement was the fact our success was so long ago and their trophy success was the most recent (even though it was in the 70's) and now that little triumph is over since 2008. Also we have smashed them 4-1 both home and away in recent years and unless I'm mistaken 4-1 was the last result between the two sides. Bitter, twisted and will never be as successful as Pompey or ever have fans as passionate. I look forward to the day when the tables are reveresed yet again and we are in the top flight and they are in financial trouble. Wonder if they would have fans that would do a community buy out? I doubt it. If they was in our position I reckon they'd struggle to average 7,000 The reason we say we're the bestest fans in the land though, is because we are the bestest fans in the land :kicking: And the scummers know it As I keep saying: I would rather be in the Fourth tier with Pompey's history than be in the Premiership with Scumpton's history. Their best will never remotely get near our best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were under special conditions imposed by the FL and "weren't allowed" to do it last time they did it and ended up in Administration again. Nice bit of brown nosing of the Chief Executive too.

Theory #1 Their overbloated squad is full of useless journeyman they can't get rid of Theory #2 They will sack their manager after six months, like the last one. And the one before that. And the one before that. And... Theory #3 They won't get promotion this season Theory #4 They won't get promotion last season Theory #5 They won't get promotion the season before that Theory #6 Their new "state of the art" training facility is just a couple of rented pitches and some tarted-up portacabins Theory #7 Their request to increase capacity at Fratton Park has been refused on safety grounds Theory #8 The Supporter's Trust owns a minority of the shares of the football club Theory #9 The Supporter's Trust representatives on the Board are a minority Theory #10 They can't file any Audited Financial Statements because of "discrepancies" So we should stop all this conspiracy theory nonsense, and recognise them for what they truly are.
