I'd expect us to beat any team that gives Kebe the freedom of Berkshire.

Ok, I know this is not technically team, but for all those who went to Pompey and wondered why we couldn't acquire the talents of Sonko (Tim Dellor included – you'd think Sonks was Bobby Moore the way he went on in his radio commentary) have a read of today's Guardian blog. It's actually pretty kind...

The paucity of genuine quality up top or at full back worries me only slightly less than the reappearance of Snowball, who is RFC's harbinger of doom.

Their crowds have started to drop off after years of mediocrity.

But 24kis still big compared to us, admittedly.

Talking of gambling, I'm now wondering whether Williams is not actually as poor as he makes out, and that he's been nobbled by far eastern betting syndicates staking huge amounts on sliced passes, poor first touches and ludicrous last minute fouls.

And Woodgate.

One possible hitch if we're planning on raiding this pool of premiership talent about to become available: Plenty of championship and possibly league 1 clubs will have the same idea. This will mean competitive wage deals will be harder to broker with the lending clubs ... therefore only those clubs ...

Exactly.

It's like the Romans. What did they do for us?

Always liked Benjani.

Any news from Lancashire on Zurab then.

Der Vogel sitz auf dem baum und singt.

Was ist los mit der sigstermeister?

Anyone know the news then?

He actually looked like a footballer. Of some kind.

A massive improvement. Not saying that much, mind.

So it's a done deal then?

Put me out my misery.

Has the gilfster gone to a german club I've never heard of.

Come on. A straight 'yah' or 'nein'.

Right, went out at lunch time.Back home now.

Nothing on Talk sport.

Has he gone then?

But Snowball, according to most people, we've sold him for £4m. Not £10m.

How much of that do you think will go towards these new players.

(Oh, Warnock's quoted in press that he's after TWO wingers by midweek. McAnuff AND Kebe?)

No, 100,000 euro the pair of them.

About £78k.

Agree with Rob. This isn't SJMs moral crusade. It's business, pure and simple. No return means minimal investment ... although that might change if we're in the crap come January. Handbags, I hope clubs like Pompey and some of the other profligate spenders get their comeuppance ... but it still hasn...

Wow, if correct, that's a recession-busting success story. Well done the Millennium Madejski.
