Yeah Pre-War Russian PL was alright, don’t think it was ever really great though was it? Just seemed to have a bit of coin in a few teams who splurged on South Americans chasing the bag, just like Shakhtar in Ukraine. Aren’t their teams still banned from European competition anarl?
You’d think it would be of good benefit for a club like Pompey to have a set up with a Dortmund/Bayern to loan in younger lads rather than them playing their second strings. Could have some big talent in the squad for relatively cheap.
I would rather give it to Russia than Ukraine any day of the week. In my opinion Russia should be admired for the way they have stood up to Nato encroachment.
Be a benefit for those clubs as well, the standard of the leagues their B teams play in isnt great at all They need to use the loan market for their better youngsters
Rusyn isn't even a bad player but he doesn't fit, Isidor is a big strong mobile lad who's played in France, its not the same really. Its like signing Kevin Nisbet or Miovski.
If you go back to when Speakman joined the club and the players in place at the time of his arrival and the value of the squad at that time compared to now you unfortunately have to say it’s so much better NOW. How any real SAFC supporter can say that we haven’t seen a massive improvement during his and KLDs tenure must be on a whole different wavelength to most SAFC supporters . I know one thing for certain is that I would rather be where we are now with the squad we have in place and still progressing rather than the days of the chuckle brothers where all areas of the club were in decline . Some of the posters on here must have very , very short memories or something of a death wish if they would rather wind the clock back to those dark , dark times .
Can't believe Speakshite is sending Rusyn to Russia in exchange, shows how truly arrogant and barbaric he is. All for a Lord of the rings character. Madrox out
