SOTONS EAST SIDE Posted 8 September, 2013 Share Posted 8 September, 2013 What the idiotic halfwit Skate doesn't seem to realise, is that Lambert put a goal past England's Goalkeeper and their Skate defence crammed full of internationals when he played for us in the third division against them riding high in the Premiership. So which way does the moron want to cut it? That James and their illustrious defence were crap, or that Lambert had something about him even then? He has since also scored goals against top international defenders playing for the glory teams of the Premiership too. I think that they must be jealous that they won't be able to afford such players as Ricky and Osvaldo within the foreseeable future. If Poopey did bitter! They would probably be the most bitter fans in the world!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qwertySFC Posted 8 September, 2013 Share Posted 8 September, 2013 Seems a general theme among the Fatpipe Brigade How many STs will we sell next season, once the fan-owned club enthusiasm has be worn away by a whole season stuck in the lower mid table of L2?! We need some play off excitement to look forward to at least. Playing teams that anyone under 40 hasn't seen Pompey play before is a novelty this season, but we do need to get back up to the Championship in the not too distant future.

Frank's cousin Posted 9 September, 2013 Share Posted 9 September, 2013 Interesting stat in The Times footy pull out this morning: The only thing that surprised me about this stat is that AFC Wimbledon seem to have done pretty well starting from nothing Stat that always get me is that in 7 years in the top flight they had a total revenue in excess of £300,000,000. Add the additional £120,000,000 they spent over and above their income and in just 7 years they consumed £420,000,000 and now have what to show for it? .... but of course they won an FA cup in that time.... and invested £45 mil in a new stadium development and anoyther 30mil in a new training and academy set up... er Ok so only one of those is true.. the one without a legacy...or er sorry a legacy of 120mil of debt...

rallyboy Posted 9 September, 2013 Share Posted 9 September, 2013 Has Guy put together a disjointed budget team of lower league runts that is prone to making late defensive errors because they aren't fit enough to compete for a full 90 mins? No, the team is great, it's just that they freeze because their own fans are so passionate. Yeah, that makes sense. pompey are finding every other team's cup final, too big, for themselves!... Let's try and keep track, that'll be the home team, the referees, and linesmen, all overawed by the League Two occasion. So that only leaves the away team able to cope with playing in front of the greatest atmosphere in world football. That explanation has to be Nutjobbery at work - come on, own up?....

I really liked the visual display of a pompey first XI based on who is owed the most, it was great (though 14 subs wouldnt be allowed).

Hold tight Nutjobs, you are in for a cryptic ride... Best thing I can say is, a reliable friend of mine recently spoke to someone who was very close to previous regimes. It was made VERY clear that much of what was suspected on here through the last five years was at times pretty accurate. Deals, envelopes, unusual activity. The insider view is, how they got away with it in court was at best a miracle. But that is history and I'm sure that most of the current directors would be horrified at some of the stuff that went on. Though, on reflection, if I bought an old graveyard and I knew that some odd burials had taken place, I might employ one of the key people who knew where all the bodies were.
