I listened to that debate also LBB, thought it was very good. I think there is the beginnings of a ground swell of football fan opinion against the irresponsible owners. However I also feel there is a need for fans to understand what goes on in running a club better and to temper their...

think the principle only works if we had the finance to do it in the first place colonel. We never did have from what i can see. Somehow the finances seem to have been divorced from the player dealings under RR. Like you say it is a decent plan but we were not in a position to take advantage...

forward passing, using all the pitch, speed of movement, pressure on the opponents, accuracy, one touch, invention, first time shot, scoring .......... now why would we want that in the first team :thinking about: Academy play in a different way to the first team..... perhaps the first team...

So I got to thinking. Had SISU come in and done a financial hatchet job from the start where would we be. This is very rough and ready and too simplistic but the figures are not the point it is the principle of acting too late that is Group Losses we think we know 2008 (part year) £4m 2009...

SISU are doing the only thing they can do as LN said above. There is no other strategy when you cant/wont fund further internal monies, cant find other outside investors, no buyers matching SISU expectations and no assets to hang our hat on. The club has thrown away money for decades, leaving us...

Its a shock. Best wishes to him ....... hope he pulls through Football really isnt that important when it comes down to it

it stops the rot, breaks the away day hoodoo etc and the last 2 results prove we can compete with this squad in this division to a degree that should have kept us safe ..... just have to have the right attitude and application, sometimes a team has to scrap and put bodies in the way ..... it...

Well done Mr Collins ........... but it is only a small start

Could have done with 3 points but this result stops the rot and gets the 11 losing away match monkey off their backs. AT said he didnt like to play this way but to be honest if they had five or six more times this season away from home they could still have had no wins but 5 or 6 more points...

Think it is all part of the strategy TF was putting forward to the owners and discussed the other day on CWR Right way to go in my opinion. We cannot afford to buy in players. Yes we will sell some of the youngsters but thats a fact of life. Currently we will find hard to retain all our u18's...

No i know it doesnt BSB but it made me feel better :) . Lets face it plenty of clubs over spend. Am not agrieved at their supporters but i am at the owners of Pompey who have been grossly negligent at best, and the FL who are toothless and inept. The fans had their their glory moments, in a...

Appleton complained the other day that he had only 25 players to choose from - the academy lads are not ready yet he asserts We have 32 players to choose from as first team players (now inc Billy Daniels). Of those, using his criteria that academy not ready Willis (2 subs app) Phillips...

surely if we keep saying we will win away then law of averages means we should at least fluke one win and be right ............. surely! We need 3 points but like Otis i would settle for a point just to break this dismal run

How about Winston Churchill as manager to inspire the "troops/players/flyers" to fight and win against the odds Battle of Britain style or the Kray twins at center half - they wouldnt stand any messing on their turf

Thomas will get better and has been out for sometime. He wasnt going to come on and set the world alight in a position (wide right) that i do not think he is best suited for. Yes he looked rusty but he still managed a few good things too. Dropping Gael straight back in I worry he will start...

Wouldnt put a penny into the first team. I would look at covering the academy costs, a condition of which would be that the club maintain the current level of funding for the academy. I would pay the expenses in arrears at the end of each season, but start end of this so that the academy got an...

It isnt league rules that dictate how many players they can have it is a league policy, there is a difference. The League do not have to accept what they are doing The policy is that the club must have 11 players plus 3 usable substitutes. How does him only having 25 players to chose from get...

Ordinarily I would agree with you on that Godiva. However the fans see it as SISU and to recover any of the connection with fans then there has to be something from SISU. Many fans see the board as SISU puppets. Infact a joint exercise showing they fully support what TF is doing and engaging...

Disappointing thing is that we have had good opportunities to pull clear, to out point our rivals, and almost without exception we have failed to pull it off. For whatever reason we lack the mental resolve to do it.

What ever we the fans do SISU will stick to the plan they have formulated. A charm offensive on our part will make not a jot of difference to their actions. It wont bring more funds, or more players, it might make a couple of people at SISU look at CCFC without growling but thats about it. Our...
