Honestly the fall they had was ridiculous. To go from playing in Europe against Milan to being relegated to League two in the space of just five years really is something. Really quite lucky they did not get wound up at one point Edited April 16 by cambridgeshire canary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MC_NCFC 67 Posted April 16 To be fair they’ve only got promoted due to their fan base and how even when things got tough they always sung and kept supporting the team. The lack of booing 20 years ago when they got relegated from the premiership has resulted in this promotion from league 1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Six Pack 94 Posted April 17 His loan term is till the end of the season. As Portsmouth is already promoted he is officially back with us after the 46th game. With his undoubted ability and match sharpness Wagner should include him for the playoff squad should we qualify ? Would be much better than van Hooijdonk should a sub be required.

I don't think we can have him back until the end of the season, and it's nothing to do with Pompey's sealed fate. Pity really. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, being owned by billionaire Michael Eisner has nothing to do with it, it was purely the fans what got them promoted... I am being flippant as he hasn't just dumped money in like so many other owners, but that is a ridiculous statement to make.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And they only did well in the prem with dodgy checkbook Harry at the helm... Overspent, crashed and burned. Not the fans fault but like Bournemouth, bought their way there in a bit of a shady way.

I haven't got the faintest idea if he could play for us this season but Portsmouth'so last game is 27 April. Our final game is at Birmingham a week later. No doubt the club will be looking at the loan agreement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

V happy to be corrected but I think I remember reading that when you loan a player you transfer their registration, so Abu Kamara will still officially be a Portsmouth player until (again, happy to be corrected) June 1. As with Idah and Celtic, think this is a non starter 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Window-to-window loans cannot end or be terminated outside the transfer window, so he cannot play for us until the transfer window opens, which is after the season finishes. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As with Idah and Celtic, think this is a non starter Just a minor point, but domestic and international loans work differently, international loans is a full transfer of the player as it has to be between FAs, domestic loans are a lot more flexible (but depending on the wording of the loan contract probably won't be able to play for us) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
