Sorry, when you said didn’t give us a chance to hijack it I read it as them rejecting our offer. |  |

Who knows whether we actually made an approach for Morrell at all? Maybe his agent was the one suggesting things? If we had bid the same or more for him, surely it is nothing to Luton whether they accept or reject it. Why would Portsmouth even know anything about it? Don't forget all of this has only come from Portsmouth at the moment. |  |

Ah, I thought they were both something to do with throwing wild speculation in the air! EDIT: that or building a new stadium and liking to own a new pet. [Post edited 9 Aug 2021 23:34]

Getting under the competitions skin is never a bad thing, even if we haven't tried to do so. |  |

I suspect that may be the case. Any player coming into the squad knows he is competing with Evans and Harper. So international, dropping down a division, and potentially regular bench warmer. |  | |  |

It must be some lame shorthand for "we're building something here, brick by brick" - well that or some acronym like "Bobby Robson in Calvin Klein slacks". |  |

That's ironic, because they are playing up (due to not getting their own way). For those upset about Ed Sheeran getting the no.17 shirt, THIS is more an example of being tinpot, the way Pompey are crying about us getting players they wanted and calling us Chequebook FC without a hit of irony. |  |

Maybe he realised it made him sound like a two year old throwing his toys out of the pram. And being so stroppy over not being able to flog Jacobs (as that is clearly what the dig was about) is hardly going to help re-integrate him. |  |
