    Well, I am not going to get involved in these fishy puns. I really have heard them all. I am just going to curl up with a good book. I can't decide whether I should choose "look back in angler" or "An inspector trawls". Which do youmthink would be best?

    I think you could be "skate"ing on thin ice with these fish jokes

    For other clubs, it's bad news. For us, it's just news :(

    These fish puns are Brill! Might have a Dab myself. Back to Pompey, they really do need a Ray of light from somewhere.........I'm floundering now!

    and a deep breath.

    Those puns were some stinkers, you could say that they smelt. You're right about Pompey's future though, it's certainly looking bleak now.

    It didn't take 'herring' very many puns to notice how 'ray'-ving mad some posters actually are.

    In all seriousness I hope the club survives in what ever form and wish all of the fans the best. I just can't help but remember how close we were. Trying really hard to not use a fishy pun so all the best.

    Can't Pompey go down to the prawn brokers to raise some capital?

    I hear they've put a bid in for Calvin MARLIN. They were disappointed when they found out that William Whiting is no longer playing professional football.

    Now I have no wish for Pompey to go down the pan, but another advance of Parachute payments would be outrageous. Could effectively allow the club to survive long enough to get a buyer and for them to avoid a points penalty. This would not be fair on the other clubs trying to avoid relegation, nor on those clubs who have already suffered for their club's poor running.

    All the debts are cast into one net. All assets will be battered including those on a long line. Scraps shared out equally to the shoals of creditors. Only answering out of halibut.

    Yes and think about just how many million squid of parachute payments they frittered away.

    Brilliant CF! But fritters contain mushed peas, not fish, so it has to go to the Prawn broker effort. Which was Saintlyhero so kudos to you SH.
