LOL@ having a 17 year old in your squad and a 18/19 year old to make it 6 first teamers. Looks like some 17/18 year olds will get a full season of experience in League One.

Let me give you one small example of why Portsmouth are now staring into the abyss.

Last summer, I wanted to sign Luke Varney for Blackpool.

We agreed a £250,000 deal – only to be blown out of the water when ­Portsmouth paid Derby £750,000.

What we didn’t know then that we know now is that it was a transfer, and a wages deal, that Pompey didn’t have the cash to finance.

The mismanagement of the club over even just the last 2 or 3 years is quite frankly mindboggling.

Who are they playing in the LC, watching that game could be quite amusing - assuming they still exist....

Any player that joined Pompy in the last couple of seasons must have known there were up shit creek with no money. But hey why not join Pompy on 30k a week rather than a stable club for less wages, any player like Kitson only has himself to blame if he does not get what was offered.

Amusing bit will be that they will be playing the youngsters, like so many do in this competition, but the youngsters will be the first team!!!

Ditto Portsmouth pipping us to Tommy Smith. They simply didn't have the cash to finance it and within months couldn't pay players' wages.

Apparently Tal Ben Haim is not only on 38k a week, but he also gets a further £1m a year in image rights. Madness.

I know where you're coming from but bearing in mind the IQ of the average footballer I wouldn't be so sure

I expect they thought the new owners were rich. After all, they owned a bank.

Found on a Portsmouth side street with a dart in his leg. Trevor Birch seen binning an umbrella and laughing like a maniac.
