    Nah, he's got a hamstring. Doesn't like players with a hamstring or a knee.

    Hey, I've been waiting 4 years for this, I'm allowed to milk it a bit I think :p

    Talking of my love life, do you like my new sig pic? My girlfriend discovered I was on a football forum called Pompey Lapras, and so painted a Lapras in a Portsmouth shirt!

    You must have a very detailed map. They've reached the third tier. Hardly on the map.

    About where they belong.

    Remember when we were told that the 3rd tier was our 'level'?

    <rofl>

    I wrote that with gritted teeth......let it be! <laugh>

    Its funny, I follow all the leagues, but L1 didn't hold any interest for me this season, but now Ply, Pom & Donny are back, its going to be a little more hot.
    Poor L2, back seat now I'm afraid.

    Yes, I remember that. There's no doubt that Saints have been in the 3rd Division/League One a few times, otherwise we couldn't have won it or come runners up, but seeing as most of the club's existence has been in the upper two tiers, and the vast majority of that has been in the top of those two since 1966, the logical conclusion would suggest that the present Premier League level we are at is 'our level'.

    I doubt there's even a half-decent argument that can be made against it. I would suspect anyone who bothered to try may have a problem keeping off the hard stuff.

    By that logic, our level would be the Championship at the very least, certainly not league 1.

    Yes, probably so. So don't hang about in League One.

    I always remember Pompey as a Div2 club and Saints as a 1st Div club. My first sticker albums had Pompey in the 2nd division bit but then again it also had Notts County, Coventry, Notts County and Luton in the top flight :)

    Back in those days my Pompey supporting portion of family members/friends used to come and stay with us in Lincoln for Friday/Saturday nights when Pompey were playing in the North.

    How much will it cost to bring Nottarf Krap up to Division One standards? You are going to need some help from Mickey Mouse I guess?

    Is it true they have a set amount of seats that they're not allowed to use due to H&S?

    Amazing! twice Norwich have hit the woodwork, twice the ball has bounced back and hit Stockdale in the Brighton goal and gone in!
