Not long now, and if there is a God, those Welsh twats from Cardiff will be next!

I've bookmarked this ready for when Mandy goes down.

Administration. What happened

 

[Profondo Rosso]

I know we shouldn't revel in other teams going bust, but I hate them, so: wankers.

Same here PR, I would have like to see them go totally! Maybe God is saving that laugh for Cov for us.

Interesting and informative article, explaining what admin means for Pompey and what's likely to happen next

Seems pretty bleak.

Really don't see them coming out of it... does seem like they'll survive until the end of the season and that will be it. If they do survive, they'll freefall.

Still seems harsh though, as proportionally it's more points than in the Championship! Should be 8pts (not that 1pt will make a difference).

He means fewer teams.

Really, I thought he meant not as many!

 

[Darth Vodka]

He means fewer teams.

pffft

that's in the realm of stuff people say and it sounds fine, but your GCSE English teacher would correct you

but, nice pedantichrist stuff though

I completely understood what he meant!

 

[H T B]

You sure? he didn't meant there are more teams in the championship?

[Macky]

He did, but he used 'less' instead of 'fewer', which is grammatically incorrect because he isn't measuring teams, he's counting them.
DUUURR, Obvious init?

Cov and Birmingham both simultaneously would be the funniest.
