suewhistle Posted 20 March, 2014 Share Posted 20 March, 2014 Do you play, Sue? Well, not with your type..;-) Oh, and I forgot. What about my gloves? As a general point, it's interesting how you start off as a forward and in low level footie (pub teams and the like) end up as a goalkeeper. With a few exceptions of course, like Parkin at Fleetwood... [Thanks to this thread for that classic photo..]. How long before Portsmouth...

Danbert Posted 21 March, 2014 Share Posted 21 March, 2014 I just had a look at their run-in. Though I still believe they will scrape home, the few must be wondering where the points are going to come from. They still have to go to Bury and Northampton, Bristol Rovers at home, and just like Avram, those fixtures come thick and fast in April.* With a modest squad they are likely to run out of legs, so it could be a tight margin that keeps them in the football league. With goals at a premium and relegation likely to be decided on one result, it is a brave man who doesn't patch things up with Connolly and recall him. Brave, or clueless. *April works in Horton Heath. Not sure about the modest squad - looks pretty bloated to me. Their official site has it that they have a 40-man squad, on the Beeb it's 36-man strong. Personally, I can't keep up. There are more comings and goings than [insert Uncle Avram pun here].

Dark Munster Posted 21 March, 2014 Share Posted 21 March, 2014 without enough local support I don't think it will necessarily go through. After all the local people are the customers and if they say they don't need/want it, then I am not sure their plea can be ignored. My knowledge is limited to the BBC TV show The Planners, but these things seem to all end up going to an appeal. I suspect there are one or two nutjobs on here that can outline exactly how this process will play out? I'm also interested to know what result you all want. While there might be two petions of over 2,000 and over 1,000 letters of opposition unless they are well founded objections on relevant planning grounds they are unlikely to make much headway. That is why I believe the covenant that forbade retail use on some of the former BT/Miland land and which was rescinded by the council recently could be key to it all. If it can be proved that the covenant should not have been withdrawn as it was intended to protect existing local retail outlets and that situation is no different now then there is a good call for a judicial review at least if the planning committee pass the Tesco plan. A JR would eat up another six months, time that Pompey don't have without the Tesco money. I think you have your answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What an absolutely appalling piece of propaganda masquerading as journalism, again. When referring to negative posts, the online fans are "a small percentage of Pompey's overall support", but when it comes to positive posts "a large, large number of the online following still offer a very loyal backing". What is a large, large number, I wonder? Particularly where the author, by his own admission in the article, didn't bother to actually read the comments. One could be forgiven for thinking that the journalist who wrote it was deliberately writing crap articles in protest at receiving crap orders from his boss, who wanted to hide from the inevitable criticism.
