Nor haha. She is the richest Russian woman on the planet. One of the Louis-Dreyfus buisness's turned over $30 billion last year man
What has Ben Close done to be constantly left out of the match day squads? No wonder Pompey´s form has slipped. And no Byers who started the other day.
Ben Close skippered our reserve team that beat Luton Town 2-1 today at Gosport. He scored one of the goals. Haji Mnoga got the other.
Just crap. We've not come from behind to win for a couple of years either. Really wish Kenny had walked on the weekend. Showed a bit pride.
Half time, and it's 0-1 to the away team. Thought Ryan Williams was our best player so far. Neither Marquis or Harrison are doing enough. Would like to see Jordy Hiwula on for Harrison.

There really comes a time when a manager needs to listen to the heartbeat of his supporters, who after all, are contributing to his wages. Not KJ. Not a single effort on target in that first half. The team is crying out for some creativity on the pitch and fro its manager. Neither is forthcoming. If it stays as it is, KJ will no doubt say it was a much improved performance. Well only one goal conceded. But, there seems to be no pressure applied to crack open the Sunderland defence.
Just our luck !! Ryan Williams clearly shoved from behind by a Sunderland player, no free kick given, they then run down the other end, and Jones scores a goal for them. 0-2 now. 58 minutes.
Pompey bring on Ronan Curtis and Michael Jacobs for Harvey White and Ellis Harrison in the 59th minute.
This kind of performance recalls the days of our struggles in the lower half of what is now the Championship during the 60s, much of the 70s, the mid 80s and the promotion struggles, back to the Championship in the 90s and the Pethick era. We seem to be a club steeped in struggle and failure. The purpose of League 1 was to wipe the slate clean and at least challenge for promotion. This season is falling apart quickly.
