It’s not about promotion, this is about the pyramid. L1 and 2 are in massive trouble here. I don’t blame you. You’ve got a chance to go up by voting for yourselves and that in turn secured your future. It’ll never happen again. But if L1 doesn’t come back, that’s it for L1 football for 12...

It’s not about the playoff games. It’s about principles as I’ve said. Clubs wouldn’t have entered a partnership without that intention. You say it’s about risking a playoff place. It’s about more than that. I don’t blame you for voting the way you will. It’s a guaranteed preserve for your...

They’ll vote to play on. There’s no way when they entered the group of 6 teams they would go back on that, especially when the EFL board’s preferred position does technically remain to play on. I think you’ll win the vote. It’ll not be as big a margin as you think.

Well we are voting to play on. I can’t see Oxford or Fleetwood deserting their principles either. That’s 9 certs imo. It’ll come down to the Blackpool, Bristol Rovers and Lincoln imo. I think the vote to curtail will win. But not by as much as predicted. Voting to end; You, Rotherham...

Time to wade in a bit here. I’m not here to be OTT, but also offer some balance. As soon as null and void went off the table, there was only one conclusion - to promote you and Rotherham. The two best sides I’ve personally seen this season. We beat Rotherham at ours in our best performance of...

Having had the (mis) fortune of living in Scumpton for 3 years, I can confirm it is a bigger dump - even without my blue tints on. Think house prices and crime rates there are another level. Not pretending Pompey is a rich man's paradise by any means. Far from it - it's certainly not as wealthy...

This time it is happening. We are about to boost our squad with 3 players. We've recalled a lad at Bognor as back-up, so we don't have less than 3 'traditional forwards', are trying to sign 2 new left wingers with pace, one being Andre Green, and are converting another of our wingers into a...

Finally looks like this is happening, he will play in the number 10 for you week in, week out - he is the McNulty replacement. Good luck to him, he needs a new start. The way this has dragged out hasn't been in anybody's interest. Deal will be made permanent in January. My only concern for...

I wouldn't blame CCFC if they did move on...but as mentioned yesterday, as it stands Robins is prepared to wait for this deal.

Sunderland's Eisa bid isn't all it's cracked up to be by all accounts. This one is going to rumble on.

I personally think we are treating Chaplin appallingly in this whole thing. The lad has made it clear if he's not to be a regular, then he wants to go somewhere where he is. He's a homegrown talent and a Pompey fan, and whilst we are obviously prepared to let him go to get a different type of...

From our end. Latest is this: Chaplin to you - fee is agreed. North of £400k. Short of £450k, plus add ons. Deal is simply awaiting the green light on us getting a replacement. Barnsley and Bristol Rovers still 'sort of' sniffing, but the deal is agreed in effect. That money has given us the fee...

All ex-Pompey in 16/17.

Coventry will sign him. He wants to go to you.

Coventry close in on Pompey’s Conor Chaplin This despite As said earlier, the fee is very close and it will mean we are satisfied that whatever you are paying us allows us to go and find that different kind of forward. Chaplin has long decided you are where he wants to play. He knows he's...

Bottom line is we want to sell Chaplin to fund the Eisa deal (despite the bluster in our local press that we are desperate to keep him and anyone who comes in is a contingency replacement). Despite his obvious talent, Chaplin is too similar in style to Pitman and won't get in front of him here...

You are at a huge advantage in terms of winning the race for Chaplin. Bristol Rovers and Barnsley reported interest is very loose at this stage. They have bid, but they are rumoured to be lower bids than what you initially put in - very much a case of them testing the water. Their interest is...

Update on this one from our end...feeling is you will get something done this week for Chaplin, possibly as soon as Wednesday or Thursday. Just to give people an idea of this move and how he might sit in the squad with other signings, because I've seen one or two mention about getting in another...

How much are you paying us?

Player exchanges won't interest us I don't think (unless you are chucking in Tom Bayliss :happy:). We've got a need for 3 players in (RB - deal virtually done for a player we had on loan last season, ACM - deal being negotiated for a loan player and a striker). For months now, going back to...
