Three words to sum up Portsmouth
Posted by Cathal Breathnach on January 28, 2010 | 10 Comments
Another difficult day for Portsmouth football club.
First of all, the club’s official website was shut down temporarily due to unpaid hosting costs believed to be £2,000.
Then the news that defender Younes Kaboul had been sold to Tottenham in order to cover January’s wage costs at Fratton Park.
Pompey are fast becoming the laughing stock of English football. I really do feel for Portsmouth fans because they clearly don’t deserve all this.
We at Football Corner would like you to sum up Portsmouth in three words. Please tell us your three words by leaving a comment below.
I’ll start us off with my three words : embarrassing, pathetic, skint

My three words are passionate, unfashionable and skint. It is a terrible time for us but saying that I would much rather support Pompey than a glory team.

In the shit.
They’ve ripped the heart out of this football team, and the sooner we go into administration and can start again, the better.

If you think ye’re bad.
Can you imagine how us Toon fans felt during the Mike Ashley tenure of 08/09?

for our fantastic fans-gutted,
for the Press and how they feel about the club- unwanted,
for me-wrenched, my heart is aching, i dont get up to the Park as much as i would like, but others i know do….I take great heart from AFC Wimbledon, and see this as possible our only way forward.

Overstretched…
Overspent…
Overdue…
No-one was complaining when the spending was taking place and yet now somehow (when the debts need to be repaid) football is unfair. What was really unfair is that two clubs like Cardiff and Pompey contested the 2008 FA cup final but only one fielded a team which they could really afford. This was inevitable. For all the high spending, Pompey retain the same attendances in the same ground with the same poor infrastructure.
It’s in many ways fitting that they call Al Faraj “Al Mirage” because a mirage is what this success was – just a mirage. Like the Middlesbrough of the mid 90s all that will remain is the memory of a cup final and a large hangover.
