Had any jealous emails from mates yet?

 

Here are some of the polite ones i've got today:

 

Sthmpton have survived.

They have been bought by the snappily named DMWSL613 Ltd.

Effectively by a German bloke worth 3 billion due to Daddy's money (wherever he got that from in the 1940s...) who has now got himself a Swiss passport.

 

I'm just jealous that they get a billionaire,

who can evidently keep a secret;

 

whereas we've got a Smurf,

who can't keep his big gob shut.

 

In this game, it's about how much cash the owner splashes,

and as long as it keeps flowing, all turn a blind eye to where it came from in the first place.

 

It'll be interesting to see how quickly he gets his chequebook out, because they lost any half-decent players they had during their dragged-out admin period and no doubt he didn't buy them just for them to remain languishing in the 3rd Division - they won't be promotion challengers with their current squad

 

Nothing to be jealous of. They are no longer a real club' date=' just another billionaires plaything........[/quote']

The first one is a clasiic of ignorance - the Liebherr empire did not begin life untill 1947 - in little over 60 years its become a 8 billion euro plus business...Markus retired from teh liebherr board to concentrate on his OWN businesses...as for teh blatent anti German prejudice .... I presume hes not a 'close friend'?

 

Second one is quite funny

 

last just jealous - afterall we all know that a club is its fans ;-)

Had loads from Skates.

 

But my favourite email is from one Spuds fan (who I've been winding up a treat), along the lines of......

 

"Stop talking **** and wake up. You'll never compete with Spurs ever again and you'll always be playing catch up."

 

He is really quite irrate now and won't take my calls or respond. I think he still hasn't got over us beating them twice in one week including the 4-0 FA Cup win.

 

I have to say the feeling of this takeover has got me grinning from ear to ear. Best 24 hours since beating Villa in the semis in 2003!

Jealousy personified..

 

"I forgot to say, I HATE YOU AND YOUR ****TY LITTLE CLUB. If you haven't already learnt anything from Sweeny's (a QPR fan) whining then you should know;

 

1 - Ticket prices will increase to pay for all the new stuff, hopefully beyond your means.

2 - Your new chairman will be a ****

3 - 2 stands will be cordoned off into new 'corporate areas'

4 - You'll still be ****.

 

Regards, Ben xxxxx"

FFS.. what does it take to get some positivity off some people??

i have been positive..i am loving this

 

the fact is we are bottom of the 3rd division with -10 points with an unpopular(ish) manager with a mish mash squad..

I meant beating Watford at Villa.

 

Look who cares about the details right now, I don't.

 

It will take more than a pedantic or two to wipe the smile off my face.

 

I think you mean a pedant or two.

My boss is a Pompey fan and a bit of a wind up merchant.

He has been unusually quiet today, none of his usual snide comments about Saints that are intended for me to hear.

Of course it may have something to do with me tapping his Pompey mug as i left last night and saying "enjoy your moment in the sun, the road back to regain our place as top team in the South starts here" !!! :)

Carlsberg don't do takeover days, but if they did....... Shaun Hale at 20:53 on 08 July

my kids smash scummers up so I dont think thats gonna happen. Your multi billionaires couldn't beat Totton last night ha Jodie Hougham at 23:20 on 08 July

Lol, get your facts straight eh. I suggest you check out your "billionaire" too. lol. Amazing that the only thing that puts a smile on Scummers faces is something to do with us these days. Come back with one of your nasty little comments I find it amusing. Philip Drain at 00:07 on 09 July

Yes 'Scholar' Hougham, er the Times rich list has checked. Have you ever read 'The Times' newspaper? Do they even sell a copy in Portsmouth?

Mr Hale we were 'taken over' today, so pls excuse the Totton game. Jodie Hougham at 00:10 on 09 July

You know what your a complete dickhead Phil, dunno why I even added you. Your a nasty **** and always have been. See ya. Oh and your not better tha everyone else as much as you thnk or hope you are. Philip Drain at 00:19 on 09 July

Whaaa? Just because I said 'The Times' does not sell well in Portsmouth makes me a nasty ****? You need to be a bit more thick skinned. I think you've got al least half of it right. Philip Drain at 00:19 on 09 July

nite.x Jodie Hougham at 00:21 on 09 July

Yeah ok wasn't aimed at me like all the other nasty little comments you've made over the months. Night. Philip Drain at 06:23 on 09 July

Scratches head. Shaun Hale at 06:49 on 09 July

ok mate you're excused the totton game as it was a friendly but those wessex league sides can be difficult opposition :-) Milwall will smash you in your first leagu game anyway.

A Leeds fan I know phoned me up as the news broke on the major media to express their congratulations and to say that it was "bloody fantastic".

 

I had a chelsea fan text me from his holidays in Madiera "welcome to the billionaire boys club, glad to hear your out of trouble".

let them be bitter - f@ck #em! - we deserve some good fortune after all the sh*t we've had over the last 6 years!

 

anyway most of the 'rival' fans I talked too were please we'd been saved - apart from the Skates - but hey they just found out the natural order of football on the South Coast is going to be restored - and a lot sooner then they were expecting it to be

I have had several messages from fans of various clubs saying how pleased they are for us! A Charlton fan has wished us well and delighted that our historic club has been saved, and a Coventry fan has said Saints are a well-liked club across the country and people are pelased we have been saved.

 

A Bury fan has also said he's delighted. Several Leicester fans have made positive comments and one did say he was a bit jealous as we have a big moneyman behind us now.

 

We have some friends out there!
