sussexsaint Posted 2 July, 2014 Posted 2 July, 2014 With all the saints goings on that still get endless headlines during a world cup, I'd forgotten all about old pompey. What have they done this summer? Spent lots? Signed another 15 players for the big league 2 promotion push? I'll check the league table in March and see how that's going. This will be the ultimate victory, completely forgetting that the grotty little cesspool of a club exists. our new hated team is Liverpool now anyway
Gemmel Posted 2 July, 2014 Posted 2 July, 2014 have Real Madrid not signed Jed Wallace yet? http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/27735131 Don't be stupid Hatch - Why on earth would you sign for Real Madrid when you could sign for the blue few. I did wonder at the time, how much that the "Incentives" for him to sign would have cost them, but then I remembered they have pots of cash + parachute payments + Tesco's + penalty spot sales.
rallyboy Posted 2 July, 2014 Posted 2 July, 2014 of course Madrid haven't signed him. The highly-rated midfielder will have turned his back on a host of offers from Premier League clubs, declined the chance of Champions' League football and sensibly pledged his future to plucky pompey - who will in turn have spurned the advances of several European giants and fought off competition to retain the services of the future England international, allowing him to lead them to promotion glory. And bestest of all, those 'facts' can all be shoehorned into paragraphs of eight words.
SOTONS EAST SIDE Posted 3 July, 2014 Posted 3 July, 2014 Awford also confirmed there had been no enquiries for any of his 27-man squad since they returned for pre-season training. Why not i say, their all so good according to the blue few... pmsl
Hatch Posted 3 July, 2014 Posted 3 July, 2014 no news is , umm, exactly that no news. http://www.portsmouth.co.uk/sport/pompey/tough-start-to-get-tougher-for-pompey-1-6155810 ‘There’s no issues. For once there is no great, big story. ‘It’s everyone just going about their work. ‘It’s what should happen at a normal football club. That has left Awford with three groups of 24 to work with in sessions.

The Cat Posted 3 July, 2014 Posted 3 July, 2014 https://www.tifosy.com/campaigns/pompey-academy The rewards for donating are hilarious. Still 17/24 of the Pompey Match Reporter packages left which is completely baffling. You'd think the local 'females' woud be selling their false teeth to have the chance of sitting next to award winning journalist and all round man-hunk Neil Allen.

You're forgetting that he's not from the Island of Doctor Moreau (high time that one was revived I think), so the chances of him being a sufficiently close relative are just too low.

Brizzie Saints Posted 4 July, 2014 Posted 4 July, 2014 Could we use the money from the sale of lalanna and buy the skates and just use them as a feeder club........just for ****s and kicks :-). Obviously buy them anonamously then once completed re brand them.
suewhistle Posted 4 July, 2014 Posted 4 July, 2014 Obviously buy them anonamously then once completed re brand them. Is that a typo for anomalously? Seems an appropriate word!
Dark Munster Posted 5 July, 2014 Posted 5 July, 2014 Don't you mean use the money from the sale of Tommy Forecast to buy them? A bit like buying one of these.

hutch Posted 5 July, 2014 Posted 5 July, 2014 With a career win ratio of 23% and average of 1.02 points per game, you can see why. Odds are he could keep you up most seasons.
Lets B Avenue Posted 5 July, 2014 Posted 5 July, 2014 With a career win ratio of 23% and average of 1.02 points per game, you can see why. Odds are he could keep you up most seasons. Are you sure? 50pts gets you relegated from the 4th Division most seasons. that's more than 1.02 ave.

Joey-deacons-left-nut Posted 6 July, 2014 Posted 6 July, 2014 Lol... Pompeyscot has taken PoL down in a hissy fit.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
rallyboy Posted 6 July, 2014 Posted 6 July, 2014 how can you have a hissy fit when nothing is happening? You really need to save your attention-seeking outrage and childish moral stances for match threads - or transfer discussions.
positivepete Posted 6 July, 2014 Posted 6 July, 2014 Exit from Rio today. Four years ago in South Africa I saw a fair few Pompey flags and met a number of their fans but not so many Saints fans. Big turn around this time. Not come across one Pompey fan but met loads of Saints fans. How times change. (Should that be five paragraphs?)
hypochondriac Posted 6 July, 2014 Posted 6 July, 2014 how can you have a hissy fit when nothing is happening? You really need to save your attention-seeking outrage and childish moral stances for match threads - or transfer discussions. He was leaving the forum and shutting it down honest he was! Err except no he wasn't, in fact he is still going to be involved in running it he just wanted a load of posts begging him to stay.
mack rill Posted 6 July, 2014 Posted 6 July, 2014 The toys are all out of the pram and will not be back till mondee HTH:lol:
hypochondriac Posted 6 July, 2014 Posted 6 July, 2014 What's happened there then? Some posters were annoyed because they were fed up of being asked for money and being made to feel bad for not donating. Others said they shouldn't complain about something like that and a big argument ensued. Pompeyscot lost it when someone said they were annoyed about him continually threatening to close down the forum
St Chalet Posted 6 July, 2014 Posted 6 July, 2014 I would say Pompey is the gift that keeps on giving. But in reality they are the charity case that keeps on taking. Maybe the good folk of POL could buy their own virtual server or rent out their Mod slots to fund the site?

St Chalet Posted 7 July, 2014 Posted 7 July, 2014 Although not Saints related I thought, today of all days, this news (which has just come to me from an excellent well-placed source in P*mpey) deserves a position on the main forum. I am told news of the collapse will officially emerge in the next few days. This is not a wind-up. I don't usually "do" gloating but with the mod's permission can I indulge myself just a little? Perhaps today (July 8th) should now be made a public holiday in Hants. Happy 5 Years to all my fellow Nutjobs.
trousers Posted 7 July, 2014 Posted 7 July, 2014 That's 5 years of my life I'll never get back. Worth it though...
Gorgiesaint Posted 8 July, 2014 Posted 8 July, 2014 pompey's five year plan. For all the turmoil the main board is in at the moment... compare & contrast!
rallyboy Posted 8 July, 2014 Posted 8 July, 2014 Five years? This thread has more history than the current company AFCpompeyphoenix2013PDTbeggingcharityincorporated.org. Happy anniversary you bedwetting nutjobs, let it go, there's nothing to see here, as one infamous poster said two takeovers ago.
Colinjb Posted 8 July, 2014 Posted 8 July, 2014 What a delicious counterpoint this has provided to our own rise. We are now more financially well off then at any other point in our history and they have forever created their own hell with a structure that will ensure they will never be anything more then a low level championship team at very, very best. Happy half-decade Nutjobs.
dronskisaint Posted 8 July, 2014 Posted 8 July, 2014 Five glorious years..Us, this thread and the plummet of the few to a more fitting league position. If we could just get p*ssflaps locked up then it would be perfect....perhaps Theo could file a historical complaint Happy Anniversary Saints fans...and to Mack who has seen it all through with humour. Particular good wishes to FF for starting this, Rallyboy for adding to the comedy that this thread already brings and to Trousers and the techies (sounds like a sixties band) who seek out and post the snippets from the obscurer sources for our delectation and derision!
SarniaSaint Posted 9 July, 2014 Posted 9 July, 2014 No more laughs today LOL Did they sign Riquelme and we are all in denial
