Pompey sign 10 players on one month deals

 

So they don't have new owners, are in debt up to their eyeballs and yet can sign 10 players, have a team which could turn out to be better than Latics' and start on 0 points?

 

Felt sorry for them previously, but they're just taking the michael, arn't they? Hope they go down....

Got a -10 points deduction. Probably see them sent down. Feel for the fans but this is what crap owners does to you

 

I thought this but looking at the table they haven't. After a draw today they are on +1 points (http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/league-one/table).

 

Think it may have gone on last season. (http://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/2897/championship/2012/02/17/2912867/football-league-confirms-portsmouths-10-point-deduction).

Exactly. Although they didn't have a full bench yesterday, the players they have contracted have all been demanding a lot of money from other clubs. It's a disgrace and I'd hope that their supporters are able to see how wrong it is so these contracts can be questioned. When they came out of administration the first time round, they went straight back to paying top-whack for players and got into trouble again and now it looks like they're up to their old tricks again.

Players like Mcleod who have had offers from elsewhere (with more security) wont just throw all that away for a 1 month contract at a club thats going bust.

 

They must have had some sort of assurances that there is a contract waiting for them and the future of pompey is secure.

They're a relatively modesly sized/smallish club which has been owned/run by dickheads who thought it was a 30,000 plus potential club. it isn't and hasn't been in modern times. as usual, fans and players suffer because of owners/non-football management. loyal fan base i feel sorry for.

 

btw, i always thought the atmosphere down there was crap - infact, a contradiction in terms ('Portsmouth' and 'atmosphere'), unless they're playing a big club (and isn't that the same for everyone?)
