I still think the possibilities of playing in front of nearly 20k and pushing for promotion then play a bit part for a club in the lower regions of the championship may just sway him to Pompey. Of course if they are offering much higher wages then I would not blame him at all considering he has been a late comer to the football league.
He would also be 1st choice here Blackpool already have 3/4 good forwards to get passed. He has a good season here could get a bigger move next summer.

Solved the D.O.F. problem! Get Arry back to do that job. No one within reason would get away.

Has a club pushing for promotion come in for him now?!
RE: Colby Bishop on his way - Hammie - 19-07-2022
overall our squad is looking good enough for play offs, as long as we get another forward or two in of course.
RE: Colby Bishop on his way - Dibdenblue - 19-07-2022
This is slow torture. Was fully expecting Blackpool to announce his signing by now. It’s the hope that kills you. I guess Derby, Ipswich and Shef Wed must be having a look.
RE: Colby Bishop on his way - firqdays - 19-07-2022
Surely Sheff Wednesday, they seem to be buying anything that moves !
RE: Colby Bishop on his way - Pedalo_menders - 19-07-2022
We need Eric & Michael on a plane pronto so they can sign off a year's free Eurodisney pass and free Netflix for a year too.
RE: Colby Bishop on his way - ForeverPompey - 19-07-2022
I have no idea whether Colby Bishop is any good but if he goes elsewhere after the 'announcing him any minute' stuff yesterday, the fact that we can't sign a striker (other than on loan) to save our lives is pretty embarrassing. Even DC can't put a positive spin on this surely?
RE: Colby Bishop on his way - slayer - 19-07-2022
Bishop has bashed Pompey - but has he bashed Blackpool as well Chris Kamara?!

RE: Colby Bishop on his way - Pedalo_menders - 19-07-2022
It would be amusing if he just came on at half time for today's game. Wonder what the odds of that would be?
RE: Colby Bishop on his way - Harrysgirl - 19-07-2022
Bishop had medical at Blackpool today.. so expect announcement of signing tomorrow.
RE: Colby Bishop on his way - Harrysgirl - 19-07-2022
Bishop had medical at Blackpool this afternoon and they expect an announcement in the morning my Seasider brother in law. friend tells me.
So over and out from Pompey perspective.
RE: Colby Bishop on his way - bluetagagain - 19-07-2022
Proof? Nothing mentioned anywhere on the internet.
RE: Colby Bishop on his way - Pompeyg100 - 19-07-2022
Brother in law friend?
RE: Colby Bishop on his way - bluetagagain - 19-07-2022
Exactly mate
RE: Colby Bishop on his way - Pedalo_menders - 19-07-2022
Danny's confirmed it's all over in his post match interview. What a mess.
RE: Colby Bishop on his way - bluetagagain - 19-07-2022
Looks like it’s game over for PFC and Bishop

‘Sometimes it can be more painful if you lose a player for financial reasons - this one genuinely wasn’t.
Not the clubs fault then!!
I suspect that the player (and this is probably true for most players in this position) was waiting to see if any better offers came in (Hence the three weeks delay). Who can blame him. He got an offer from a northern club, in a higher division.
Seemingly, we matched Blackpool financial package.
We move on.

We do indeed.
I see Voldemort is their new manager, I used to like the tosser but have gone off him now.
RE: Colby Bishop on his way - slayer - 20-07-2022
To be fair this has not happened to us for how long? Carrick?
RE: Colby Bishop on his way - bluetagagain - 20-07-2022
It’s I see Blackpool have pulled out of the transfer, will it back on for us. Don’t miss the next enthralling chapter of Who pull will the Bishop.

RE: Colby Bishop on his way - Pompeyg100 - 20-07-2022
Interesting, wonder if there was something in his medical.
Maybe we’ll get our man after all.
RE: Colby Bishop on his way - Roybatty - 20-07-2022
Fuck him! He had the chance to join us

Well we don’t want to sign a crock do we?

Maybe attitude problem
