Quote from Appleton: "We are going to be one of the biggest fish in the league" Does he really not know?
Well it's not exactly the plaice to be and I am sure there are other teams that will make them the minnows they are! Also they are bunch of pikes and they won't exactly be bream ing with talent once they have to sell everyone. They will find it tough. Once the sharks get to them
Portsmouth should be a big team in League 1, but have they the finance or squad. Will they even exist after the end of the season....is anyone trying to buy them?
Good Cod my how they have fallen, in debt to the tuna 60 mill lets just hope they dont get battered every week
Difficult to see how they could roe back from this position. Applemort will just have to Mullet over. After floundering all season, the sheer scale of the problems, the fact that without a buyer.. Well, I hake to say it, but they might have haddock.
You should try a challenge. What's the most obscure or difficult name of a fish you can use in a pun?
Scyliorhinus canicula....strangely enough, a fish I dissected at Highbury Tech, Portsmouth. Smelt disgusting. Never thought of trying to use it for a pun.
Back on the old 606, I suggested on a Pompey, "who should we sign" thread that they could consider signing Rajidae, who had spent a lot of time in the "lower leagues" but could be a decent catch. For some reason it got deleted and I got an email from the Mods. Can't think why.
