It's a despairing read on here in many ways - in regard to Pieking I don't think your wumming and as a business yes the numerous idiots that have dragged our club down should be shut down and barred from being involved in football for at least 10 years - if your asking that the entity that is PFC should, then no - it won't be - ever - it will live on in some format and will play in blue white and red - if we re-name lets be Portsmouth City FC and lets build from the bottom up. The sad thing here is that decent people, both employees and fans are going to possibly lose out - in Appleton we have a really promising Manager who will very soon reach the end of his incredible and laudable patience. Some of the players, and I'm not picking on any need to look at the situation and realise that something is better than nothing and an IOU may have to suffice - they'd be free to ply their trade elsewhere - if your not being snapped up look at your demands and your ability - and adjust. I'll not believe we're dead till we are and then somehow a new life will have to start - very sad though all this and not deserved by the fans who at the end of the day will be the only ones left clinging to the wreckage. PUP PTID.
Let me be clear: PFC2010 Ltd. is rotten to the core, and as a business entity, deserves to die. PFC as a club and team, the team you all support, doesn't. It will undoubtedly continue, whatever form that may take.
Isn't football about not letting go? How many times have you seen a game go to the 89th with a team looking dead and buried just for them to get a goal in the final minute? I genuinely hope Pompey survive, preferably without the merry-go-round of crooks the fans have had to put up with in recent years.
I hope Portsmouth fans never give up, until the day this incarnation of the club dies. But, as a neutral, I can't help but want this to end. I want BC out of English football, I hate to think about how much money he has laundered through PFC over the past few years.
Possum and Pieking seemed quite reasonable and even supportive - not that you would reciprocate if the roles were reversed. Some Saints fans might even remember certain "minging" 657 types who and at our recent predicament. Karma for them, I suppose. Sympathy for the decent Pompey fans. The ones left on this site are decent (with one exception) and are hanging on gamely. They have to endure a certain amount of payback in retaliation for the "haters" who strangely left when things got tough. It's not fair and they don't deserve it, but that's life!
Brecon, put your wellies on and go and find some sheep, presumably its preferable up there to pony fiddling!
SB3 = Minging. I am sure you guys will survive in some form or other and maintain your history! New rangers will still be one half of the old firm, and new Pompey will still have their proud record of past achievements. And one day the scummer vs skate rivalry will begin again.
Hopefully, but we'll be the little fish for quite some time. Perhaps you should start calling us sticklebacks instead of skates
You will survive; wasn't confident of that in the past, but I think that brinkmanship will win out, and the senior players will depart. Whether surviving is the better option remains to be seen...with no intention of malice, it might be better to have a season without football, which would galvanize the supporters of PFC and ensure that a phoenix club was well-prepared and well-funded for the trip back up, rather than a club that survives at the last instance but limps from crisis to crisis. Pompey supporters have good reason to want the club to survive, but I honestly believe that the road back to the Championship (and potentially beyond) might be shorter beginning with a supporter-run non-league side with no albatross around its neck than a League One team still seeking its bottom. Regardless, good luck; it's an unenviable position that far too many clubs have found themselves facing.
Sort of backs up my opinion of you, SB3. You continue to perform to your own stereotype! If all Pompey fans were like you, I'd be dancing with glee at your plight.
