No, you were a truly skint club.
If you had been a big club, you would have been able to afford to keep him. |
Is that why you sold Van Dijk? |  |

So when we sold Diarra to Real Madrid, and there were only 4/5 clubs in the world who could have bought him, were we a truly massive club? |
Ahhh, those heady days when Real Madrid came calling for one of your players.
I guess one would compare that scenario in more recent times to when bigger clubs like Wigan were able to prise your manager and best player away, yes? |  |

"Diarra was signed by Chelsea while Mourinho was in charge at Stamford Bridge in 2005, but after failing to hold down a first-team place he was sold to the Gunners in 2007, who in turn offloaded him to Pompey in 2008"
"After Diarra left Anzhi Makhachkala for Lokomotiv, there were several months of speculation linking Diarra with signing for one of several European football clubs, notably Celtic, Inter Milan, Newcastle United, Queens Park Rangers and West Ham United."
He would happily have moved to at least 20 other clubs in Europe to get away from Little Pompey. It just so happens that Real Madrid was the biggest one that wanted him at the time. [Post edited 3 Sep 2020 12:50]

No, we weren’t skint. Which is why we were in a position to let him stew for a number of months against his wishes. Your shower wouldn’t have dreamed have being in a position to be able to do that.
Every club sells players. The difference is we don’t have to sell them so that we can pay the mince pie bill and to stop us from robbing charities. |  |

It's an irrelevant question isn't it?
There are about 12 clubs bigger than you in wages spent on players, and a huddle of about 7 or 8 clubs who spend around the same money.
If he is going for 35 million or so, then only 5 or 6 clubs can buy him anyway.
It's about buying, not selling | |

I just don't understand why you have to sell your best players almost every single season, if you are such a big club. | |

Let's face it, Worzel 130, you don't understand much at all about the real world. You seem to lead a very secluded life, with this message board being about your only source of communication with people outside your cocoon. [Post edited 2 Sep 2020 16:20]

You managed to hold onto one player in about 35 years. Well done  | |

I know we are a small club, but we did enjoy selling you some of our worst players like Jhon Viáfara, Grégory Vignal, Nigel Quashie, Ricardo Fuller and Vincent Pericard a few years back!! [Post edited 2 Sep 2020 16:27]

Talking of transfer fees:
Little Pompey record transfer fee paid: Peter Crouch £12m
Southampton record transfer fee paid: Danny Ings £20m
Little Pompey record transfer fee received: Glen Johnson £18.45m
Southampton record transfer fee received: Virgil van Dijk £76m
Right now, Danny Ings is worth more than the entire Little Pompey squad.
Anyway, it's good that you've finally admitted that you know you are a small club. It's taken a while. You seem to be taking your first steps back into the realms of reality. There's hope for you yet. [Post edited 2 Sep 2020 16:36]

Before our brains collectively dribble out of our noses at the mind numbing dullness, talk us through you selling us Pericard and Vignal. Also, why are you so obsessed with Pompey being bigger than Saints? What difference does it make to your support of your club? If you could prove beyond doubt that they were, it wouldn't make the slightest bit of difference to me as a scummer. |  | | |

You're losing it again. This is your only source of regular communication with people and you are not getting on very well with anyone. I think we can see why you don't have any friends. | |

My suggestion is to look at the thread title, and the person who started this thread. Most of the thread is of course a giggle, but there are some here who convinced that your club are a big club, which of course is why this thread is running on. It's not hard to get, seriously. | |

I genuinely think your dancing has some merit. It must have taken a while to practice all those moves. Make sure you keep your distance next time though, in case you accidently hit someone. [Post edited 2 Sep 2020 16:45]

Whilst it's true that we do laugh at you and chat about how desperate and obsessed you are, it's not really much of a giggle. Most of us actually feel a bit sorry for you. | |

Its easy to see why any of the blue few wouldn't understand!
We choose to sell our best players to balance the books, invest in infrastructure, invest in the academy, pay our tax/NI, pay our bills to secure the future of the club and the many local businesses that provide a service!
Nope, knew you still wouldn't understand!  |  |

But it was in response to one of your nonsense threads. And then you look up all the scorers who come from a PO postcode or whatever. That's not a giggle. I'll keep out now as it is making me long for Boris and SOG's never ending political debate.
Vignal and Pericard though? If you get that wrong, what else may not be right? | | | |
