But I thought Andy Turner had got a scoop for the first time in his career. Coventry are no longer interested in a Portsmouth reserve that they never said they were interested in buying. A great scoop! Even if it turns out to be true, it would be much less fun than what people in the know on...

It's quite simple. If people think any money they spend supporting our team will go straight into Joy Seppala's pay packet, they are going to be less inclined to support our team. Footnote for absolute clarity: Not supporting CCFC = Negativity (that's bad) for CCFC

Precisely. It doesn't say that. That is what makes it dishonest journalism. It is presented in a way that misleads the public. If it were just carelessness - not bothering to read what is actually there - it would be careless journalism. The sneaky bit is that we already know they are...

My reading is that MacAnthony says he didn't bid £200,000 but Barry Fry did. I.e. Peterborough did bid £300,000

How can a signing a day (or not) ever be boring? It may end up very frustrating. Then again it might end up very exhilarating!

I think it's one of the Trialist triplets that were around this time last year. No 4 is probably the fourth triplet.

Quite right. It was a typo. 17 goals in 66 games for us. Was a goal every 3.88 games.

Tommy English scored a goal every three or four games throughout his career, including scoring 17* goals for us in 66 games while we we were in the top flight. The only blip in his record was when he went to Leicester for a couple of years and only scored 3 in 44 games. Anyway, you would...

Well, doesn't concrete tend to crumble, unless reinforced? Perhaps being reinforced with just one shaky Rod proved insufficient.

And if Max gets a hat trick on day one, an apology or two maybe?

Well reading that compendium of poor performance has really cheered me up! Well, it did, once I ran through the talent now at MR's disposal. What a lot of moaners there still are on this forum! To add just one more from an earlier era, I have to mention Lol Harvey. He certainly didn't have...

I agree. Which manager shall we back?

Didn't realise his injury was a metatarsal in his index finger.

For you wimps that lack stamina, just try reading the Pompey thread: Portsmouth Message Board |

It does look odd. Particularly when each spell he has played for Bury, he has scored less than half the goals he scored the spell before. And in eight of the nine games he played for them most recently, he managed not to score a goal at all. But in the remaining game, he really did score a...

Even with that one extra player, it won't wipe out the shame of our U23s losing 2-1 last night to Tamworth. SHFWF

I thought we'd been talking of getting two Chapins. Connor Chaplin (to get the worldies as well as the tap-ins) and the other Chapin, just because getting any old Chapin is better than waiting for MR to pull his finger out to replace all of the goals MM might or might not have scored in L1.

His replacement as our number one talking point? Early days.

But we're only talking here of those who have equine handles. Right?

Bollocks is fine in this thread. Required even.
