Blundell is a Tory. He can't speak for the council, since he's an opposition councillor. It's just his own opinion.

Who did we loan him from?

Actually, your comparison withe the country's financial position and ours is spot on, but not in the conclusions both you and the government draw. Evidence shows that the more a club pays in wages, the higher up the league they get, In the country's case, cutting spending results in the economy...

Dream on! (If you don't understand that, ask anybody over 30)

Feel free, Otis. I'm not in the thesis-writing business. Though I don't know, the standard of university education these days, I could probably make some money selling some "example" essays.

Very picky! (is that OK for length?)

Picky! (and what's this crap about my post being too short???)

Eleven men dressed in sky blue?

Oh, and by the way, Fratton Park is NOT listed. Portsmouth council's policy is that there must be a football stadium there or, if it's sold to developers, elsewhere in the city. PSTs intention, as I said, is to sell the surrounding land, owned by the club, and use the money to redevelop the stadium.

Psgm: there are some problems, wrong ends of sticks, and some downright misrepresentations in what you say. To go through them: 1. Pompey Trust don't intend to sell Fratton Park to a property developer, but to sel the land around it, and use the money to upgrade the stadium. 2. The loan from...

Then you didn't look hard enough. The actual quote from Law 12 on the site you mention is: An indirect free kick is also awarded to the opposing team if, in the opinion of the referee, a player: plays in a dangerous manner impedes the progress of an opponent prevents the goalkeeper from...

It's called "Impeding the Progress of an Opponent." It is Law no.12. Impeding the progress of an opponent means moving into the path of the opponent to obstruct, block, slow down or force a change of direction by an opponent when the ball is not within playing distance of either player.

.... And the sarcasm is lost.

"Plays"? Julian Darby actually played?

You lot clearly never saw Julian Darby play.

Come on everyone. Its not three years since the last one. When the whole board's changed again, and they've got a new CEO, then we'll get one.

So the theory is, we only perform well for one half? Should suit us down to the ground.

You mean that sometimes, it's not the manager's choice who plays? How naive of me thinking it was Robins who decided the team.

I'd agree, but if we're being asked who we think Robins will choose, I' suspect he'll go for: Murphy; Clarke, Brown Wood; Baker, Barton, Jennings, Moussa; McSheffrey; McGoldrick. Fleck on the bench again and brought on when we're losing with 20mins to go!

It ain't Wood, and I doubt Brown will play many for Manure. But he's the youngest, so will probably take his 50p head to a lower league side (err ...) and spend a fair length of time there.
