The Telegraph are reporting that come Monday morning, Tony Adams will be officially sacked as manager after only 22 games in fifteen weeks in charge. His last match in charge ended in disappointment as Portsmouth blew two leads before falling 3-2 in second half injury time. His overall record in charge 4 wins, 7 draws […]

Arsenal have a flawed squad, abundant injuries and a pint-sized transfer budget.  To compete for the top four they must supplement themselves, and apparently must do so cost-effectively.  A simple measure, and one which would cost nothing, would be to recall Armand Traoré from his loan at Portsmouth. Traoré primarily has been seen in the […]

Sunday's big game in the Premier League will be an intriguing affair featuring Tottenham Hotspur against Portsmouth at 11am ET/4pm GMT. Intriguing because it sees Spurs manager Harry Redknapp and striker Jermain Defoe up against their former club. Only three points separate both teams, and based on current form both clubs could be in for […]

The biggest story to come out of the FA Cup Third Round this weekend was the way Manchester City was torn apart by Nottingham Forest. Given the media's need for a story, the immediate response from the press was to put Mark Hughes on the hottest of hot seats along with even starting the short […]

[display_podcast] Portsmouth are out of the UEFA Cup after losing tonight against Wolfsburg 3-2. The match had plenty of incidents, but the highlight (or lowlight if you're a Portsmouth or England national team fan) was David James's idiotic mistake (see video above). Instead of booting the ball out, he telegraphs his intentions to the Wolfsburg […]

Plans are being finalized for the 2009 Premier League Asia Trophy. So far, Chelsea, West Ham United and Hull City have been invited to participate in the tournament which is likely to be held in China, in either Beijing or Shanghai.

New Portsmouth manager Tony Adams said late last week that he would quit if Portsmouth sold Jermain Defoe. While I'm sure that most Pompey fans would agree that Defoe needs to stay, Adams's comment shows his immaturity as a manager. Threatening your new owners after recently getting the job is no way to impress the […]

  When Harry Redknapp walked out on Portsmouth for the second time at the end of October, the general consensus was that the immediate future looked bleak at Fratton Park. Redknapp, with the help of Milan Mandaric and whichever Gaydamak is actually pulling the strings, dragged Portsmouth kicking and screaming into Premier League regular status. […]
