As in the title, they are having football chat as no live commentaries, with Pardew being on live at some point, I think after 3. Could be interesting, will hear more about Fonte and possibly others....

You can almost hear the presenters sh*tting themselves that he will say something libellous :lol:

He managed to, more than once. God bless him.

Yes, the Pompey bloke is trying his hardest to sound intelligent and pronounce everything correctly.

 

Not working tho' is it! :D Gaydumcack had a business plan that relied on building a new ground with additional gates receipts :rolleyes: they can't fill the **** hole they have got!

"The internet is a fantastic place..." and then it cut out.

 

I thought that was just me. iPlayer made me run diagnostics and everything.

Mine too. It was like being on the USS Enterprise -

 

'running level 1 diagnostics, cap'n'

"There are clearly instalments for players coming INTO the club as well" - not necessarily.

 

The guy on the radio is wrong it doesn't go straight to the club. Like with the PL holding back the Sky money, they will also hold back transfer money to pay other clubs.

"P*mpey's stadium is not big enough"

 

No sh*t.

 

Actually if anything it is too big! They have been getting 17k in a 20k stadium in the Premiership. When in the Championship they had crowds of 10k.

 

The problem is that the stadium quality isn't good enough with lack of corporate boxes etc to bring in money. What they need is a modern stadium with good facilities and corporate boxes of similar size to the current ground maybe 24k max.

''We're not going to have a fire sale''

''every player has their price''

 

''we don't need to sell any players''

''i think it's inevitable some players will leave, we have a big squad''

 

ok, what do you believe....spin of the highest order.

Well there's an admission from Jacobs :lol:

The embargo will probably be lifted - but ONLY due to player instalments being paid off by the TV money they Premier League are withholding from them.

No good making such a big deal out of the embargo being lifted when in actual fact you are not really getting anywhere.

It's too big, if recent attendances are anything to go by.

Brilliant spin from Jacobs on right now.

 

Exactly, it's not the stadium that matters as long as you fill it, it's whether people want to go or not! 11k attendances for a Premiership club nowadays is absolutely pathetic, especially for a reasonably large club such as Portsmouth with their relative success over the last couple of years (if you can call beating Cardiff in the cup final success).

 

They could have a stadium the size of Wembley, but if only 10,000 people are going to go and watch a game then what's the point? P*mpey have been slashing their ticket prices to absurd levels for a top flight club, yet their attendances are consistently poor. Also with their loans being secured against their TV money (which is now being distributed among other clubs that P*mpey owe money too) I think they are properly in the poo.

"There will not be a firesale......"

"Will there be one or two players leaving though?"

"I think it's inevitable"

Lol...

 

One or two players leaving doesn't make a firesale. So he didn't contradict himself. I do however think it will be more than 1 or 2.

Unbelievable that Pompey guy is, blatant lies... "embargo will be lifted", "everything OK until rest of season" - absolutely hilarious. They are so f**ked!!!

 

And if someone does pay them a massive loan... who are they? what are they? and how on earth did this guy get a job at a bank???
