  1. Mind the gap, Pixie.

    The temporary gap which we could close tomorrow, or the 13 to 2 league titles gap, 12 to 8 FA cups gap, 17 years of Champions league football gap, or 20 years finishing above you gap ?

    Really! As far as I can see, they won the FA cup,in 2008. We won the Carling Cup in the same year. So,,that's one each. Since then, they've gone bankrupt and been relegated two divisions! Great success!..

    Really, as piss poor wums go, this is one of your worst!

    The league cup is a major trophy - There are 3 domestic trophies on offer each season and the league cup is definitely one of them.

    In some respects the league cup is harder to win than the FA cup as only the 96 league clubs take part, and the first round is seeded meaning that in theory more of the 'better' sides get through

    Oh, I see. Unless the goons win it, it's not a major trophy. Pathetic!

    Go and take the dog for a walk or something useful. If you're going to Wum, at least make it credible!

    No, we win FA cups and League titles, they are major trophies.

    I can see why you spuds would think the Carling cup is a major trophy though, to you it is.

    You list them amongst your honours on the club website, so someone in the gooner hierarchy considers the trophy to be worthy of note

    Interesting that someone whose team has made a great deal of its top 4 finishes, would consider that one cup win makes a club more successful than a club that has finished higher in the league every season except 1 in 'recent history'

    No you didn't in your original post (which was what I quoted) and I repost here for you!

    'Coincidently, these two were more successful at Pompy than they were at Spurs'

    oh and Pompey has an E in it! <ale>

    Pathetic! You haven't won a title in 12 yrs. The FA cup is no better than the C.C.

    Your idiotic excuse to stick up yet another picture of that deluded scum, judas, has backfired on you.....again.,...

    You've misread it, I said that Redknapp and Sol Campbell were more successful at Pompey than they were at Spurs and the comment was linked to them winning the FA cup.

    Thanks for the point of pedantry <ale>

    I can see why you Spurs fans would say that seeing as you haven't won the FA cup in 25 years. I guess you have to take what you can get at your level.

    Also, double strike for the Campbell pictures, it's wound you up both times :)

    How the hell have I misread it! I am sorry that my psychic powers have let me down tonight as I thought that your comment about Pompey being more successful meant that they had been generally more successful as a club in that period because you did not specifically mention the cup win!

    By the way it also means that in that time frame using your logic they more successful than Arsenal as well
