    And he's moaning that Kanu is in breach of contract for not turning up to training.

    Has he forgotten Pompey are in breach if all players contracts <doh>

    Those odds are too small as there is more chance of Pompey going bust!

    Good song that!

    She's a good girl, loves her mama
    Loves Jesus and America too
    She's a good girl, is crazy 'bout Elvis
    Loves horses and her boyfriend too

    It's a long day living in Reseda
    There's a freeway runnin' through the yard
    And I'm a bad boy 'cos I don't even miss her
    I'm a bad boy for breakin' her heart

    And I'm free, free fallin'
    Yeah I'm free, free fallin'

    All the vampires walkin' through the valley
    Move west down Ventura Boulevard
    And all the bad boys are standin' in the shadows
    And the good girls are home with broken hearts

    Now I'm free, free fallin'
    Yeah I'm free, free fallin'

    Free fallin', now I'm, free fallin', now I'm
    Free fallin', now I'm, free fallin', now I'm

    I wanna glide down over Valhalla
    I wanna write her name in the sky
    Gonna free fall out into nothin'
    Gonna leave this world for a while

    Now I'm free, free fallin'
    Yeah I'm free, free fallin'

    Yeah I'm free, free fallin' oh
    Free falling
    Yeah I'm free, oh free fallin'

    There's the surprise of the century. To be fair to him, Kanu really does take the Michael. Last season, when all the players were deferring their wages, he wouldn't. When they were asked if they would settle for less, he wouldn't. And now he doesn't turn up for training. Somewhere along the line, he's not quite on the Pompey *bus™, sorry coach.

    100/30 with Skybet. Fortunately(?) there are seven teams with shorter odds so the bookies look as if they think we'll survive somehow....

    They also have us 6/1 for promotion! I'd say they're hedging their 'bets'

    He reportedly has the muscles of a man in his late forties/early fifties.

    Just checked. Apparently, he is 35..! Which came as a bit of a surprise, because I checked his age 3-4 years ago, and I'm sure I read 37, back then. The bloke behaves like some Victorian Society lady. 35 years means he started playing regular professional football at 15.

    As if...

    Makes sense for them to do so, because a huge points deduction could soon be heading Pompey's way in 2012/13 for diluting the failed 2010 CVA with a new one and/or failing to meet the football creditors rule by offloading players against their will. The Football League may even withhold the golden share completely and not let Pompey into the league.

    Bounced to take into account the 10 point deduction. It just gets worse!

    "Portsmouth boss Michael Appleton 'frustrated' by cash crisis"

    ...as are the small businesses owed money by Pompey
    ...as is the tax man
    ...as are the original creditors in the original CVA
    ...as are...should I go on!

    I wish you wouldn't but it seems some of you lot are going to bang on about this until the end of time itself.

    No, just until it stops being one of the main stories on the BBC website...

    There was quite a gap between yesterday and the last time we were a prominent story on the BBC website, yet still the same old jibes continued.

    It's not like we're not appalled and disgusting by what our 'owners' have done with our club but we can't do anything about it, why not direct the hatred at those who got us into this mess?
