    Anyone see the pompey article in The Sun? Saying Pompey will have to pay 24 ex players wages until 2016. They will have to pay a total of £108k a month.

    If that's true, there's no way they can sustain that for 3 years. When do the parachute payments run out?

    Yep, somehow they still owe Steve Finnan money. They owe Nugent £143k, Kitson £608k and Mullins £632k.

    Oh, and Tal Ben-Haim is owed £1.6m.

    The ones with Damon were far better than the recent one. You're right, I can't see them stopping.

    Nice to see Joel Ward, the apparent "local hero" & "Pompey fan" is still leaching them of £20,000. Top man.

    Still looks like they would have been better to fold and start afresh in non-league...surely this is unsustainable.

    Add to that Jamie Ashdown and Jason Pearce, two more apparent "Pompey fans" who are taking over £100,000 that the club doesn't have. Absolutely delightful.

    I knew it was 20k, I just wasn't thinking when I was typing, my bad.

    Ah fair enough, 20 million would be ridiculous. You're right it's not particularly good of them to demand the money, but Pompey are still liable to pay them. If we were in this situation do you think Lallana etc would still want to be paid? I think probably.

    I just caught the end of Seattle Sounders vs Chicago Fire. Seattle had Djimi Traore and Obafemi Martins playing, they won 2-1.


    Houston Dynamo vs New York Red Bulls is on tonight, live.

    Los Angeles Galaxy vs Colorado Rapids is being replayed at 16:30 too.

    I found me some football. :)

    BT Sport 1. You have it?

    If you do, Houston vs New York kicks off at 10pm. The LA/Colorado game is just them showing a game, not live.

    Fair play, I just got it added to the current package.

    Thierry Henry and Bradley Wright-Phillips up top for NY. Possibly Peguy Luyindula too!

    I'm not sure, what I find most hilarious however, is the fact that Norris and Ward who were deemed local heros after scoring equalising goals against us are actually contributing to the death of Pompey by claiming over £200,000. You can only laugh.
