Excellent post Cowfold......unfortunately i'm afraid your last sentence may well fall on deaf ears.......the rest of the forum seems to be absolutely obsessed by Bournemouth.

Yes AT....but finding Championship standard players is a world apart from finding PL quality......if that's truly what we are going to rest our hopes on then our hopes are resting on very little.

My God....:lolol:...O.K one more time....they've just banked 120 mill....they have a guaranteed income of at least 100 mill.....with figures like that they don't need a 'backer'......even in the unlikely event that he suddenly lost his mind and walked away they'd have beat off potential buyers...

LOL....this is incredible......ok i'll put it in a way even the more witted among us can understand.........Pompey spent money they didn't have.......Bournemouth have a income of at least 100m......unless they plan to sign Lionel Messi this season then they are going to make a profit.....lads...

I don't really Springal.....just wishful thinking i suppose.....wishing that we would show the same ambition as them even if it meant heaven forbid paying over the odds for a quality player.....wishing we wouldn't be balking at the idea of paying a young player 35k a week.....wishing that we...

Yes your probably right.....finding Championship standard players is no different from finding Premier league players is it?......no of course not.....our world renowned scouting system will find a handful of gems that nobody else knows anything about...pay them 5k a week and we'll sail safely...

Seems he's the latest player Bournemouth are in for.....shouldn't we be at least trying to beat them to the punch?.....surely we are a bigger attraction than Bournemouth.....i know they have the Eddie Howe factor and you can see why that would appeal to a young player but our infra-structure is...
