I don't feel sorry for Portsmouth, I think more clubs should go to the wall. I do feel sorry for all the businesses that lose money purely due to bad management by the owners of football clubs. I think something should be done to them.
Otherwise, corruption in office, sick fans attacking someone (and italy, shock) and a footballer on the front of the newspapers...nope..usual  |
What about Portsmouth fans? The ones who have poured countless money into the club? They deserve a sympathy vote surely? After all, its not the fans that decide to pay silly wages etc.
If all this goes through, it could be a BIG wake up call to "bigger" teams that they need to start living within their means - though something inside says it won't.
As for Rooney...well, to question Sir Alex is bordering on lunacy. You can probably work out that I'm not Man United's biggest fan, but SAF deserves more respect, he's got Man United winning things with an average squad for the last 4 years I'd argue, simply because he's a winner and it rubs off on people. If Rooney did have doubts, they should have been aired in private, before he announced his intention to leave.
