Ali Al Faraj has come for Portsmouth
Welcome to your daily ‘Pompey are f**cked’ update. In today’s second installment we learn that Portsmouth have once again failed to pay their players.
Poor Kanu will have to stop the production on his size 56 fluffy-lined slippers as the BBC reports that a further ‘delay has arisen’. The club say they have agreed a bank loan to pay the players but are still working out the paper work. Yeah right!
Other bad news for Pompey is that the Premier League has added to its agenda of getting rid of the club as soon as possible by refusing to re-register midfielder Jamie O’Hara. The club is transfer embargoed for money it owes to other teams, but O’Hara has already been on loan at Pompey since the summer. He will now return to Tottenham.
I don’t think I have ever witnessed such a mess at a football club in my entire life like the mess at this one. There are no words to describe what a real villain owner Ali Al Faraj has turned out to be. The Arab businessman clearly thought he could flip Portsmouth quickly for a pretty penny and when that wasn’t possible he decided to let it rot. He has the money but seems willing to let the club die, slowly. Maybe he’s really a Southampton fan out for revenge?
It’s shockingly outrageous. I really do feel for the supporters, 40 million in debt yet they have sold over 80 million pounds worth of talent in the last 18 months. Just two years ago they were celebrating at Wembley with the FA Cup and now they are on the verge of collapse, certain of relegation and maybe even bankruptcy. Criminal.
Avram has lost weight.
Skeletor is a wimp compared to the other chap.
Disagree, Skeletor has the power.
I bet if Scooby and the gang took the mask off Ali Al Faraj, they’d find Matt Le Tissier.
