Southsea Common is awash with caravans as travellers have moved on next to the D-Day event...

This will be an interesting test of Hampshire police powers - and whether they can be bothered to use them.

Having the FBI on side probably gives them the edge.

 

The FBI is for domestic affairs, not state trips to Portsea island.

There's a bad omen about Trump's trip to Skateland - Portsmouth is a anagram of Shoot Trump :lol:

Clarke on his way and Lowe to follow him out the door. They will generate decent funds, but as we know to our cost you have to spend it wisely

The club has an amazing relationship with Donna (Jones), Gerald (Vernon-Jackson) and Stephen (Morgan).

‘But they are constrained by what national government can do to help them to help us.

‘We are working closely with them to try to address those issues, but it's a big challenge

But the Government has already helped out by writing off that massive Tax Bill a few years ago. The CEO seems to have forgotten that.

May not be the best place to post but terribly sad news about Justin Edinburgh dying, Just 49.

Thanks, I hadn't seen the news and went and saw an article in The Guardian. He seemed to be doing things the right way; learning his managerial trade and working up the leagues. What a great shame.

Why is there a big sculpture of a knob?

 

That's the Southsea Naval Memorial commemorating sailors lost in the world wars.

Ladies loos? They were pretty grim when I last went there for a women's international.

 

Mind you, they were at The Dell, back in the day. it was pretty desperate if you were a beer drinker like me!

They are spending the forthcoming Clarke transfer money on laying a `Premiership standard' pitch to play their League 1 games. With Man U and Liverpool entering teams into the Checkatrade Trophy next season they will want to impress.

Not much use if you've only got Championship-standard floodlights, so those are getting replaced as well. Factless says they're iconic

Borrowing money again to make the 'improvements'. I expect it is all part of the plan to make themselves 'premiership ready' when they 'decide' it is the right time to go up.

I see the Championship fixtures are out today - when are we playing pompey?

 

I’ve been searching for those fixtures too, without any success. Having been reliable told last December that they were going to happen. It was only this evening I realised I had been looking for those fixtures in the wrong place, the Championship!! Then I realised that of course we aren’t in the Championship and neither are Pompey....

Surprised to see that their star and ever present CD Matt Clark has left for Brighton. I was told he was going to be one for the future, a premier league player.

 

I suppose you can see it form his point of view, he couldn't wait forever to achieve his ambition. Although it must have been hard to leave one of the 'bigger' clubs in the third division. I suppose the opportunity of Brighton, a much bigger club was to much.

Do keep up, they had a change of plan on the last day of the champion winners play off game and decided they didn't want to go up this year. They have the checkatrade trophy to defend.

Do you know how much he went for? Enough for a decent replacement or are they relying on promoting from within?

As we approach this threads 10 year anniversary, are there any plans to celebrate? Maybe a quick recap of what has happened in the last decade or a list of the best posts?

10 years, Jesus. I remember being online when the very first message was wrote and I’m probably one of the few to have read the original message before any replies!

 

Few ups and downs, but as usual, they’re ****ing miles away from us in every single department. Bless em.

The Sargent Pepper Muriel hasn’t been seen for a few years - that was a beauty. Other highlights;

 

- The Toy salesman’s storming off this site

- Rallyboy’s posts

- Three relegations and one promotion from the fourth division for them (third time of trying), double promotion for SFC, top 6 PL finish, beat Inter Milan, three Wembley trips. Mane, Davis, Toby, Lambert, Lallana, VVD, Shaw, Bertrand, Fonte just a selection of the players we have enjoyed watching.

- Seemingly as many administrations - Chinny, CSI Portsmouth

- Guy Whittington, Andy Awful, Richie Barker, Voldemort, Cook and his post training fry ups

- Fan ownership (if you ignore all of the HNWs)

- Hartley’s last minute header for Plymouth

- Winning a trophy they all said they would boycott

- Mr Leigh Park thug assaulting Sunderland’s full back to national notoriety

 

Quiet decade really....

And the rather splendid artist's impression of the new quayside Fratton Park, unfortunately shaped like a potty and subsequently bastardised to include an infant having a plop.
