Wallace - slayer - 07-09-2021

Running his contract down at Millwall after frustration that they haven't out a promotion challenge together.

Would love to have him back here one day.

Totally agree with your sentiments re Jed Wallace scumslayer


RE: Wallace - Hammie - 07-09-2021

is he being realistic in thinking Millwall are one of the big hitters who can afford to buy the players for promotion to the prem? All the mid sized clubs are having to be cautious after a year of no gate money.


RE: Wallace - Pedalo_menders - 07-09-2021

He's probably good enough to play for a promotion challenging team. Hammie, I think the point is that he HAS realised that millwall aren't going to challenge so is starting to look elsewhere.


RE: Wallace - Hammie - 07-09-2021

in which case we might be rather hopeful that he might return here


RE: Wallace - bluetagagain - 07-09-2021

I reckon, no chance. He wants to leave an established championship team because they’re not challenging for promotion, he’s hardly going to drop down to a L1 club who have failed at the promotion hurdles for the last 3 seasons. Get real.


RE: Wallace - slayer - 07-09-2021

Of course he won't drop a league if he is trying to gain a league. It says "one day" ffs


RE: Wallace - bluetagagain - 07-09-2021

What feckin day would that be then? Some day Ronaldo might play for us FFS

But whoever thought we would see Prozinecki at Fratton Park ?

Of course, Eisner is no MM and certainly Danny Cowley is no Rednapp !

Eisner wouldn’t recognise a football genius if he ever saw one (and wouldn’t find the cash to pay him to pull on the Pompey shirt if he did) and RP would never fit into DC’s vision of football- whatever it is.

Pompey only aspire to mundane at best, always assuming we can reach  such heights.

Eisner is certainly not a Mandaric. Thank god.  Owners that interfere with who the manager signs are not a good thing, as Mandaric proved with Yoshi.    Prosinecki was a bit different because he was a personal friend of Mandaric , not someone he scouted and thought would be be useful to sign irrespective of whether the manager wanted him . Which of course Rix (not Rednapp ) did, unlike when he signed Yoshi and upset the dressing room so much they staged an on the field protest and let the opposition score when Mandaric insisted on him being picked.

Another difference between the two is that when Eisner promises to spend 10m on the ground he does, whereas Manadaric produced an early fake news news story by sitting in a digger but doing nothing other than lie about his intentions to keep the fans happy.

hopefully as and when Eisner gets fed up with the online moaning and sells up, he will pick a safer pair of hands than Mandy.

Can't see a man who has run an international Corporation and made billions pay much attention to some of the bollox written on this site. Smile


RE: Wallace - Wightblue - 11-09-2021

Yeah, your probably right Deepblue, we’re much better off with Eisner !

I mean, why would we want an owner who already had experience of owning a club (Nice) and who was absolutely intent on bringing Premier League football to Portsmouth. Much better to have a virgin ‘soccer’ owner who knows absolutely F*ck all about the game and who seems content to see his side in the football boondocks (which is what L1 and L2 are).

And we certainly don’t want some of the cream of world football visiting Fratton Park do we ? Much better the lumpen footed artisans who have provided the entertainment in recent seasons and for the foreseeable future.


We’re well off not having an owner who knows enough about the ownership game to know when the models broke and sets about fixing it (but fortunate to have one who thinks knows enough to extend an incompetent managers contract).

I do think you are selling Eisner short, clearly whilst he knows nobody worthwhile in the industry that is football, he was able to use his Disney contacts to bring Dopey to manage us for 4 seasons, good call !

The last thing we need is an owner who spends c. £60 million on achieving Premiership football, much better with an owner to whom £60 million represents c. 0.012% of his wealth…..even though the tight ars* won’t spend a cent of it.


RE: Wallace - ForeverPompey - 11-09-2021

However much he has or hasn't spent it has certainly failed to achieve anything on the pitch. I thought hoofball was bad, now we've got Cowley's special brand of snoozeball.


RE: Wallace - slayer - 11-09-2021

You weren't saying that last season when they came in, immediately arrested our slump and send us on a little run that nearly got us into the play offs, which was a fucking pipe dream the day Jackett was sacked.

You know this is a transitional squad and you know this squad isn't promotion calibre so why are you whinging?
