Milan: "I`m Selling Pompey."

But Glen Hoddle has been since house hunting on the South Coast, good old rags!

Well, we have a lot to thank MM for. For those die hards who suffered the 90's, lower Div 2 footie, awful times under the Gregory famil & crowds of 8-10,000 on a good day, we are very grateful to MM for putting us where we are now.

We owe a great deal to Milan for getting where we are, he will be sadly missed. Hopefully he will stay with us in some capacity, but no-one can blame him if he moves on.

What happened to the little club, Koper I think its called, from memory a warm sunny little town on the Mediterranean. Now that would be a great place for Milan, early partial retirement while tinkering with the local 2 pound football team, kraps all over broke, broken Wolves.

I thought he said once that he was leaving as he had had enough of the heartbreak that football brings and he wanted to spend more time with his family?

Before Milan Mandaric came along, we were going to the wall – selling half our team to Bristol Rovers for peanuts in a desperate bid to cut the wage bill and stay alive another week. Now we’re about to sign somebody for £10m Mandaric has my gratitude, he has my love and he has my utmost respect. Never in my wildest dreams did I envisage Portsmouth being where they are today. Sure, there was the whole Zajec debacle, his lovers tiff with Harry; and the rather grating and undignified way in which he often engaged the media for his purposes…… But there’s also the man who risked the wrath of his wife by refusing to leave Portsmouth three years ago when he meant to. There’s also the man who swallowed his pride and accepted widespread ridicule by getting Harry back. There’s the man who scoured the footballing world to find us the investment to not only help us survive last season but propel ourselves forward for years to come. And he really ****** off Rupert Lowe; who has been relegated and forced out by his own club. Mandaric, I salute you.
