I know its only been 25mins but everyone is trying to pressure and close down the opposition when they have the ball.

''The good news for Plymouth here is, they've kept parity despite Southampton dominating the game''.

The team looks amazing in the new strip BTW. Didn't think I'd like it on the pitch but I was wrong.

good pressure so far.

Some people love to moan, and aren't happy unless they find (or make up) reasons to complain about the club.

Think about it, we were the in-form team last season. Apart from Antonio and Papa, we're still that same side, plus a couple of quality additions. Add in a few last-min surprises, and we'll be fine. Remember, we're the bookies faves, and they have their finger on the pulse of football...

How much longer is this transfer window open, and how much more do they need to raise to honour the CVA?

Right, how much longer is this transfer window open, and how much more do they need to raise?

'' Mark: The case has been adjourned with Mr Justice Mann telling the court he would not deliver his judgment before 3pm tomorrow - possibly later. He asked both sides that if they lost would they consider an appeal on Friday in the Court of Appeal. They both said they probably would. Mr Justice Mann said his full judgement might not be available tomorrow, but he would give an 'executive summary' in court at some point tomorrow afternoon. ''

[Comment From Ken Ken : ] One good thing lads. At least there is now no one in the world who hasn't heard of Portsmouth Football Club. Not many other teams can say that Yep, cos all publicity is good publicity. Worked well for Katie Price, Kerry Katona, Jade Goody, Amy Winehouse etc. They have glorious reputations now, don't they?

Mark: The hearing has now adjourned until this afternoon. Chris will be out of court soon and we hope to hear more details from him of this morning's proceedings.

[Comment From TCWTB TCWTB : ] If we win this then we should make AA our chairman, he has done a great job! I might get his name on the back of my Pompey shirt! I have a Coffee-Laptop problem now. Well Done!

''Mark: Moving towards the end of his submission, Mr Mitchell said HMRC was determined to get the best deal for the taxpayer. He said: HMRC has always objected to football creditors receiving more favourable treatment to other creditors. 'HMRC says that the football creditors rule is simply wrong and wants it removed. 'We are not shooting ourselves in the foot as has been claimed by the club. 'There are very serious reasons why we are pursuing this appeal and that is to get the best outcome for the taxpayer.' He said the Revenue believed that a Company Voluntary Agreement, which Pompey has and under which it will pay back creditors 20p in the pound, was 'simply wrong' ''

ooops lol. I doubt many of them would have noticed anyway

Finally, one of my posts got through: ''[Comment From Hayling Jerry Hayling Jerry : ] The image rights are simple, we paid more than twice the amount than Chelsea, Man U etc. Can anyone genuinely say that the amount we paid is representative to the value of the players overseas? Is Wayne Rooney less marketable in the Far East than, say, Defoe or Nugent? ''

''[Comment From Rob F Rob F : ] I think it is highly unethical and inconsistent what HMRC are striving to achieve from this case, HMRC accepted a minor % from Crystal Palace in contrast to ourselves. Can they not see that liquidating the club will only be a regressive strategy from future PAYE & NI that HMRC will earn from our club, pathetic ''

He looks well tanned from his holiday.

''Chris: Mr Mitchell went on to criticise another 'sham' he alleged Pompey used to avoid paying tax. This concerned money paid into players' employment benefit trusts in what he described as 'tax havens'. He said: 'The Revenue says these are disguised payments of salaries on which PAYE should have been paid.' ''

Nothing of mine is getting through on the News site. I'm Hayling Jerry.

Winnable.

How often are you going to repeat this (also) completely one-sided summary ? Are you trying to bore the hopeful / positive fans to death ?

Case by case basis.....i.e. ''can we sign a striker?''......''No''. ''can we sign a midfielder?''......''No''. ''can we sign a fullback?''......''No''. ''erm, can we sign a keeper then?''......''go on, but just the one''.

Beckham?
