I guess because they can't afford to have them back on the wagebill. Not that it normally stops them, mind.

Agreed. So basically you're going down, but you're going down TWO divisions if you finish this season 21st or below. Mmmm....I quite like that you know. It has a dash of CRUELTY about it which I find enticing. I'd also still start them on -15 the next season regardless. Nice.

I agree with the sentiment, but the practicality of it doesn't stand up. If you automatically relegate a club halfway through the season, it makes the remainder of their games totally meaningless to them. The teams who have already played them twice this season, when they were still battling...

Y'see I'm not really sure they did. We were never even on their radar as they scaled the heights of the Premier League, FA Cup Finals and Europe. Little old Brighton and our joke athletics track only really came into view again after they got relegated and we humiliated them in the Cup last...

Leicester massively took the piss 8-9 years ago when they got relegated from the Prem, kept their Prem squad in the Championship, went into administration and paid 10p in the £ for their new stadium. And promptly went straight back up. They took 6 points off us that season with their Premier...

Plus Bloom is a 3rd generation Albion director with blue and white blood in his veins. Whereas Pompey have grasped at and ushered in seemingly EVERY dodgy unknown foreign businessman who's washed up in the Solent, dragged him through the Fratton door and immediately gone out SPLURGING on his...

I genuinely do not wish Pompey fans ill, but every time I hear the phrase "long suffering Pompey fans", I seriously want to hurt someone. No they are not to blame for the series of shysters who have infested their club, but by christ they have had a cuffing BRILLIANT last 10 years off the back...

The problem seems to be that in the endless pursuit of new owners and investment, Pompey have been doing all they can NOT to drop into the lower leagues as this would damage the value of the club - something Chanrai is clearly not willing to accept. At some point though (a point which should...

Not to mention the triumphant parading of Benjani in front of the Fratton crowd just before kickoff before the game against us last August. Pompey certainly wouldn't be paying the likes of him in peanuts, thats for sure. Its just another example of Pompeys belligerent lack of acceptance of the...

I love reading the comments on that Pompey News website. This one is PRICELESS The government shouldn't and won't buy Fratton Park. Let's forget about it. But you know what our saviour will be? The Olympics. They will provide the most amazing showcase for sport in this country, and by the time...

Don't want him. Don't need him.

No, I think the fan genuinely throught League 2 was about as bad as it could get. As for Liam Lawrence - £20k a week for that ? Nothankyouverymuch.

They were interviewing some fans on South Today last week (or it might have been Late Kickoff). One of them was finally facing up to the fact that they might have to accept they'll have to "do an Aldershot", drop through the divisions and start again as a phoenix club from scratch. The...
