    I will grant you that....but if you do the comparisons.....even at our lowest ebb.....we still had reasonably good attendances...and that is a matter of record.......Mind you we don't want to rake over old coals do we........oh sorry we can't can we.....you can't afford any.....<whistle> (Sorry couldn't resist)

    Harsh, Ducky. I've been to a couple of their matches and while I wasn't there to eye up women, none of them were unattractive. Indeed, one of the midfielders was particularly attractive....

    Rake over old coals = go over old ground.

    I'm actually too young to know the origin of the raking over old coals saying, but it probably refers to the time when most people had coal fires and would either......... a) use a garden rake to incorporate the burnt coals and ashes into the garden, or; b) rake over the burnt coals to see if there were any bits of coal that hadn't completely burned and could be used again.

    Maybe Duckhunter or St Godders (?) could say whether that's correct or not.

    Anyway it means not to go back to old conversations and start them up again.

    Maybe he's been traumatized by the 15-0 drubbing Pompey Ladies gave Southampton Ladies last November.

    Yes, I'm sure that's uppermost in his mind!

    Don't suppose the Football League(or FA) would allow you to field your ladies team instead of your first XI ? No ? Just a thought<ok>

    Might be a problem, brecon if say one of the female players was injured, and needed medical attention from our male physio - he wouldn't know where to put his hands first without being accused of shall we say "interfering with them" <yikes>

    ....and would the referee have the gaul to give a yellow card for removing her shirt after she scores.

    Sorry Lapras; I know you've heard 'em all before - I'll get me coat

    If they did draw the Scummers Lapras, you would probably find that Stripehampton would field Fatty Lambert , Adam Banana and the gang, as after all they are all a bunch of girls.<laugh>

    I'm sensing a bit of sexism here mate ..

    Be careful what you say. For example, there was that Chinese 15 year old girl in the Olympics who won one of the Swimming events- and beat the time of the man who won the men's race. So I don't think the gap between men's and women's sport is as big as you think, Possum. Amanda's better than me at handball- she's proffessional. I'm ok at it, but not fantastic.

    Anyway I'm delighted to say Amanda's starting her first match tomorrow since November. She was meant to return for last month's European Handball Championships, but surgery on the injury (a shoulder injury) ruled her out for a further month. So good luck Viborg HK! (I was there two weeks ago for her first appearance back, but I won't be there for her first start since the injury. She said she'll send me some photos).

    EDIT: Oh btw, more reasons for you to support Viborg .. they just signed a British player in the handball transfer window, Holly Lam-Moores!

    I do hope that is a Pukka pie, P_L Stewie, only they are his shirt sponsors this season, so we don't want them upset if it's an inferior make from Lidl or Aldi, that you are picturing <ok>

    Oh dear Pompey London , when nothing funny to say bring back the Ricky Lambert pie jokes even though he's fitter than you will ever be. Well done.
    Know I am sure Pompey lap will tell us how many of the ladies should be in the side for the big match against Hartlepool this weekend.
