nicko Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 Nicko, do you know the names of any players on the C-list or what position we are looking to fill first??? The names being worked on most recently are Vieirinha - the little Portuguese lad - and Valdez - the Paraguayan striker. Both will cost more money than you have been prepared to offer or can currently afford. Pavone is gone. Mongongu seems to be off the radar...if yesterday's statement is to be believed. It's a long drop from the £10 million Venkys cash plus sales proceeds that was the case just two or three weeks ago. A very long drop.

John Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 Back to leasing then as long as the players are not on high wages?
promoted2001 Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 I still think there's some good free agents around like Upson, Reo-coker, Carew and McFadden at a push. Wages would be an issue but surely cheaper on a 1 year contract than buying some unknowns who can't keep us up.

It's a long drop from the £10 million Venkys cash plus sales proceeds that was the case just two or three weeks ago. A very long drop. Vieirinha looks a good skillful player. Valdez is decent. good work rate and pace. Pavone not a lost in my view, rather have Valdez then him. Mongongu is a player we should be looking at. We need cover at centre back unless we are going to play Matthew pearson this season. We need at least 3 or 4 players this season. A defender who can play anywhere at the back, midfielder, striker, then a winger. I hope we do not sign Benjani. Is Reo-coker or Santa Cruz a target for Kean, considering Reo Coker is on a free?
Nelsta Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 Apparentley, Bolton are due to talk with Reo-Cocker.
Pelio Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 Long drop suggests maybe someone from the lower leagues.... Adam Barton? Been linked with him today I see... Wouldn't cost much either...
Mattyblue Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 So, our grand old football club is pimped out to flog chickens and we get what in return, apart from humiliation?
Majiball Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 So, our grand old football club is pimped out to flog chickens and we get what in return, apart from humiliation? We got Newcastle's crown.
donnermeat Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 It's absolutely shocking the way our club is being handled its like one extreme to the other in less than 12 months. What a laughing stock, its embarrassing. I know this post is just a pointless rant (and probably repeated by most rovers fans) but forgive me. I have tried to stay optimistic for as long as possible but all this business today has tipped me over the edge!
Stuart Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 Genuine question: at what point did Pompey hit the headlines regarding the goings on at the club? And where there similar warning signs at an early stage? We haven't even had the enjoyment of 'living the dream', over-extending ourselves, having great players at the club, winning the FA Cup. We've just gone to the bit where it all seems to be coming apart at the seams.
A cup of beans Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 question is.. will they sell us.. before they sell off our prized assets ? theyve lost me completely if what i hear now is true!
BiggusLaddus Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 We got Newcastle's crown. Most neurotic supporters?

Craigman Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 Does anyone think we will be sold now ? I think we are stuck with Venky's and Kean for a long time. Relegation will happen this season or next.
Stuart Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 question is.. will they sell us.. before they sell off our prized assets ? theyve lost me completely if what i hear now is true! Samba, Kalinic AND Hoilett?
Ripleys love child Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 question is.. will they sell us.. before they sell off our prized assets ? theyve lost me completely if what i hear now is true! here we go again, can you just tell us please instead of saying these little snippets all the time
chris Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 question is.. will they sell us.. before they sell off our prized assets ? theyve lost me completely if what i hear now is true! Does that mean you'll change your avatar

donnermeat Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 very warm! Worst case scenario Samba and Hoilett. I can't even begin to think how gutted I will be if that happens
niggit Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 Samba, Kalinic and MGP. Let's just hope, we get a really good crop of youth coming through.
A cup of beans Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 Worst case scenario Samba and Hoilett. I can't even begin to think how gutted I will be if that happens put it this way.. the writing is on the wall. heard from 3 people, that someone else has been added to the owners payroll! and its not good news. no point having a transfer thread! this is beyond depressing!
