    In todays Snooze an article regarding the possibility of a new owner within weeks. Whoever it is wishes to remain anonymous until contracts are signed but AA has already submitted them to the League to conduct their own checks.

    Good news hopefully.

    You are right Jake - not so much worried about the teeth, just very, very rich, and in it for the long term would be rather nice <ok>

    Woopert, you are getting a bit picky in your old age. How about;

    1. Not wanted by Interpol for fraud.
    2. Not an asset-stripper or money launderer and
    3. Actually exists.

    And if he has a few bob of his own, that would be nice.:)

    In 10 years time when I sell of my Advertising business I'll buy Pompey. I fit the criteria;

    I'm real

    Honest money (gained by advertising car modification companies then eventually creating adverts n stuff)

    Pompey till I die. STH for last 5 years. Away games fairly often.

    Want to turn Pompey into a succesful team but at same time a succesful business.

    Definatly long term. (The team is important but focus is on infastructure)

    Can I? Can I pretty please?

    FFD - as long as it isn't an ex motor trader like Martin Gregory, I'll be happy.

    Rumours from South Stand Lower suggest Florida based, Pompey born, Brian Howe (Bad Manners lead singer) leading a consortium.

    Who knows ?!

    He was rumored to be interested a couple of days after CSI went in to admin. I believe he even put something on facebook about flying immediately to England to have words with Lampitt to see how he could help, then it all went very quiet...

    The only issue I would have with this is that we heard similar rumblings about 15 years ago... http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/...rty-tycoon-seek-portsmouth-talks-1289169.html

    I think you'll find it was Bad Company (replacing Paul Rodgers) rather than Bad Manners. Either way, not the best desription for someone we would hope to be our saviour!

    Quite right LFiH - my mistake ! At least he is Pompey born and bred, so would have some interest in the city and Football Club.
