And still some call for a repeat of the madness that is Pompey.

Interesting post. Only yesterday I had a discussion in the South Stand about what an attractive purchase Pompey must be. I said this because, if I've got it right, Pompey owe relatively little money considering they own their ground. Pompey also comes ( at the moment) with big crowds and an even bigger potential. Unlikely (IMO) that there are many clubs that come with ground, fans and massive potential for, probably, not too much loot ? Dunno whether selling to a rich owner is the right thing but gambling is what football clubs tend to do to gain success. We could sit around in the lower divisions for 40 yrs ! I, for one, I quite enjoyed playing Man United etc. A rich owner may be a gamble but the alternative ? It's an interesting question, at least.
