Portsmouth Squad Gradually Strengthening
Now, let’s be honest. It’s all relative. I mean we’re strengthening from where we were two weeks rather than a year ago! But at last Portsmouth Football Club seems to be moving in the right direction, albeit slowly.
Without going over old ground, the squad we boasted a year to two years ago wasn’t sustainable, as we now know. But, providing [...]
Pompey Fans Urged to Get Behind the Team
Paul Hart has today given an interview calling for the full support of the fans for Saturday’s season- opener against Fulham. The interview has been run in The News and would usually be a completely non-descript Tuesday afternoon read. But this is different.
This week it really is apt because we haven’t got a clue what [...]
Portsmouth A Bleeding Victim of the Credit Crunch
I’ve called it the credit crunch because although it is now a full blown recession, it was started by the banks and the banks remain at the heart of it. Portsmouth Football Club know this only too well.
It may be that the agonising, continuous, and extremely damaging delays in this takeover process are being caused not by [...]
Portsmouth Takeover Officially Becomes A Car Crash
I spent quite a lot of time this summer blogging about Portsmouth’s bright new future. With a prospective owner from the Middle East who wasn’t short of a few bob, but who also preached a long term, sensible vision, things looked promising. Today, I take back every single word. Forget it all. This takeover has [...]
What on Earth is Going on Pompey?
Trying to predict transfers in or out of Portsmouth at the moment is like trying to predict the weather. However, one thing I do know is that we will probably never know the real answer to that question.
Paul Hart has been quoted in The News today as saying that as well as potential new arrivals, more [...]
Portsmouth Defender Distin to Sign New Contract – Says Redknapp
I have decided to put my optimistic head on again today. I hope the news about Distin is true….what’s that?…..sorry?…..oh I see. It’s not ‘news’, its just Harry Redknapp talking about other clubs’ players during a press conference. Oh well, I’m sure he was just in a reminiscent mood and wishing his old club the best [...]
Portsmouth – First Division Champions 2002/03
As it appears Portsmouth fans will not end up with the takeover we all wanted, I feel the need to lighten the mood!
We still have weeks of off the pitch events ahead of us, even after the takeover is fully completed, so I thought I’d concentrate on the football side of things. The Premier League is undoubdedly the place to [...]
Paul Hart Named Portsmouth Boss
So, Dr Al Fahim’s takeover is all but complete. Despite this, Peter Crouch is still set to leave and we have Paul Hart as our new (old) manager. Forgive me for making the most obvious comment you will find on the internet today, but this is hardly what we expected back in May when the takeover was announced!
To [...]
Crouch Set to Leave Portsmouth
After a few enforced days off, I am back, but what the hell is going on?! Just as the protracted takeover of Portsmouth FC by Dr Sulaiman Al Fahim seems to be nearing completion, many of the players are either clamouring for the exit door or being pushed towards it.
It looks inevitable that Peter Crouch will [...]
Making Money Online – Week Ending Friday 10th July 2009
It’s been a busy week for me, but more with other things than the website. However, some of the week was spent trawling You Tube for some interesting Portsmouth clips to put together in a Portsmouth You Tube Video Wall, which I think is now hopefully up and running!
I say ‘I think’ because Nicola offered [...]
