  1. Well I for one would like to see both clubs strong and competitive (with Saints having the edge of course). When either team is weakened the other set of fans will get to have a gloat, but in the long run the rivalry is only fun when you go to the derby unsure of who will win. You need to look at the psychology of rivalry to really understand how to get under the skins of your rivals. A perfect example can be seen with England/Scotland. Have you ever noticed how Scots generally hate the English; but the feeling generally isn't mutual. Basically as England grew in strength, the rivalry with Scotland began to mean less... but for Scots there is nothing more annoying than when your sworn rival is ambivalent. To put this back into a Saints/Pompey perspective: the day we start ignoring the rivalry, is the day that we will really begin to annoy Pompey.... so let's not give them the satisfaction of gloating!
  2. Bringing Andy back should help the new team get their feet under the table, and hit the ground running. It's not as if we have a vast amount of time to prepare for next season.
  3. How many owners do QPR have? Are they really 2nd and 5th?
  4. When was the last time ITV had anything worth watching?
  5. Babelfish makes Liebherr 'Dear gentlemen' - but personally I think it's a surname, similar to the English 'Loveman'. (certainly nothing to do with sexuality).
  6. "Heidi buy"
  7. I agree, but after the run of google/corrie ads have dried up would you still have an asset worth £15M+? Put simply, a company could look at this a virtually 'free' advertising, with the potential to make a profit on the investment. Add that to the 'status symbol' nature of buying a club.... And who knows, the whole thing might just be a little bit fun too! Heck, I'd say it trumps a £15m traditional advertising campaign on a number of levels...
  8. Think it's a name, and would read closer to the English surname 'Loveman' - which isn't that terrible really!
  9. https://www.ukdata.com/numbers/06866524.html Similar to previously posted company data, but with two (£18) pdfs at the bottom of the page (any takers?) Interesting is the "Notice of change of directors or secretaries or in their particulars" PDF on 20th May 2009
