'If It's Football, It's Vital'
Quite frankly it's insulting
After The Suncome Arabianbusiness.com who are claiming to have spoken to Al-Fahim
Earlier this morning we had The Sun claiming that they had spoken to Al-Fahim. Now we have Arabianbusiness.com telling us that Al-Fahim has had a telephone interview with them.
It this the way it is going to be for supporters and staff of PFC ?
Well Mr Al-Fahim in my humble opinion you are demonstrating that you have absolutely no understanding of the commitment or passion of the fans that live and breathe Portsmouth Football Club - The club you now own.
Would it be too much to ask for something on the official site that outlines your plans for our club - If it is official then at least we know there is no 'media` spin on it!
Reducing us to titbits of information from what in the past have been shown to be not the most reliable of sources is quite frankly insulting
For those of you that have yet to see what we have been party to the titbits are below`
He told the Sun
'I have the money and the desire to turn things around. I have a 10-year plan"
'We will be sticking with manager Paul Hart, who I believe is a good coach and a good man"
'It may be too late to do anything in this transfer window but the money will be there in January. We want to create a strong squad with new players.'
'We will be in discussion with all parties to push forward plans for a new ground.'
He told the Arabianbusiness.com
'Paul is a big part of this club, and of course he is staying. He did an excellent job to keep the team up last year, and I have very high regard for him,'
'I am very much behind the team and the club. I think Paul Hart is a strong manager. There has been a lot of uncertainty in recent months but he has been very focused and very professional in getting on with his job. I hope there is unity throughout the club from now onwards, as we all want the same result.
'I hope the fans will have a little patience, but of course, we will outline very soon how we move forward - the club, the team, the stadium, there is a lot to do, and we will involve everyone we can and keep everyone informed.'
Informed ! Yeah Right ! Through the press I reckon … and not even our local press at that !

Haven't you got some fish to catch or something - I just knew you'd be around the corner waiting to pounce - Well they may have been first but I still find it preety poor that he is speaking to the press and not those involved with the club.. ie the staff and the fans
I agree mate - He seriously has a lot of bridges to build already and things like this will just make matters worse - I've love to think that Peter Storrie is loving it .. but I bet he ain't !
He may you fooled but I anit waiting another two weeks for information - The transfer window will be shut and he will tell us on 2nd September that he has no money -
I was not complaining about Paul Hart - Have you read the article ??? - And as for the 'commitment and passion' I wrote the piece and I was at the Hereford game .. were you ?
I'm not at all disgruntled about Tommy Smith - That would have happened no matter who took over the club in fact I (personally) think he'll be ok to be honest - My comments were about the fact that nothing on the takeover has been communicated 'officially' and Fahim is speaking to all and sundry and not the sources 'The club' or even dare I say 'The News' the media which most fans rely on.
Ginsters?... What the pasty company?... bring it on I say (lol)
Patience may well be a virtue .. but as you know I have none.... Patience or Virtues !! ... Actions are what is needed now .. not the odd snippet to the press here and there... I have Ninja Tim bad feeling.. I don't trust the bloke .. Hope I'm wrong but I welcomed Milan & Sasha with open arms .. Fahim ranks alongside Venables and Deacon for me .. Still remains to be seen
