It does seem too low. A hack rather than a shave. I can understand if the budget is marginally reduced to help other costs.
I think that there's definitely some anti Tornante politics being played out over social media. If enough believe it, then it may help their wish to get them out of the club.
I'm alway skeptical of rumours from ITK'ers with an agenda, especially in the height of unrest, but it is being claimed elsewhere that our budget for next season will be in the region of £2m.
If this is remotely accurate then the Cowley's will surely walk, and we'll be in the midst of anarchy...
I watched it on iFollow. Whilst we showed promise in the opening half hour, we never really troubled your keeper which is pretty much the story of much of our season. Once you won back control, there only ever looked like one winner.
The positive is that there are signs of what the Cowley's are...
I can't see beyond a home win for this one.
Our form post covid winter break is patchy, and we're in the midst of overhauling our team for the second time in 6 months. Inconsistency is inevitable and you're one of the top sides in this division with a strong home record.
I see that they have also taken the decision to block iFollow for tonights game.
1,000 fans for a fixture we would have otherwise realistically taken three times that number, and now all blocked from watching it at home.
Smacks of petulance, like we're being punished for daring to cancel the...
To the best of my limited knowledge, that isn't something which is at the plan stage at this moment in time. The house buying was more so to create better access and potentially additional car parking if enough could be bought up in a row. Obviously if it ever reached a point where enough had...
That's the difference.
Our fanbase would audibly groan with each missed chance. When he did score it often felt as if it had taken him to fluff three easier chances to put that one away. The weight of expectation was obvious given his record at Doncaster and the transfer fee and wages he was...
If we manage to shift all three of the high profile, high earning Summer 19 Jackett signings in Harrison, Downing and Marquis in this window it will be nothing short of miraculous.
We need some replacements now given the large savings in wages as a result.
That is a now 50 year old question which has been asked countless times. I think i've seen five different stadium proposals in my life time alone!
Portsea Island is one of the most populated parcels of land in the UK. There is no space to build a new stadium unless there is a large scale...
We've just acquired a modern gym adjacent to our training ground. The Cowley's I imagine are more focused on how we can utilise that to our advantage (it currently still has hundreds of paid up members) for now.
A good question.
Since the Eisner family took over we have had specialist after specialist come in and advise them. The stand currently being worked on is supposedly the one in future which will undergo a full rebuild (well the upper section anyway) but they are reluctant to commence until...
That's the total for all three stand improvements. Effectively £16m to only retain what we have, hence why the Trust sold the club to the Eisner family. Fans could never has raised that, and there was no appetite to borrow and create debt again.
Five years down the line and there's growing...
The North Stand has had it's capacity reduced for a number of years due to basic areas of safety not meeting current minimum standards. The upper was renovated and improved over the last few years. The lower is now being completely re profiled and altered for improvement works and eventually...
Some severe flooding to the main A road into Fratton from the motorway at present. Pitch holding up, but a pitch inspection to be taken at 6:30.
Slight concern that the travel chaos may put a stop to the game even if the pitch holds up. I'm sure the fact Sky cameras are there will hold some...
The logical thing to do here is Plymouth reject the notice of resignation (he's tied under employment contract), and put him on gardening leave. Preston's plan to have him in place blocked, forcing both clubs to work out a deal?
Risky if Preston go elsewhere instead I suppose, but you've gotta...
The irony is that we've had to spend so much over the past 5-6 years (and still £10m to go) just to keep FP operating at current capacity, we probably could have built a new stadium 30 years ago for the same outlay, and greatly improved facilities. If we had the owners then that we do now, i'm...
Just to echo K-Win's points really. He had his moments where he won us points over the years with some outstanding saves. Probably his most noticeable (albeit we lost) was the Pappa John's final. This is what earned him the POTY i think. Technically wasn't the greatest though, but still feel...
