Matt Stevens signs for Forest Green.
£25k
That’s a steal |

Tbh, my opinion has been clouded by those 3 loanees we had under Luke Warm.
Whatever happened to Colkett(?). Didn’t Feruz get a gig as one of Snow White’s companions?
Colkett plays in Sweden for Östersunds FK. Feruz is without a team still. FGR signing Stevens for £25k proves we didn't want him as I am sure he would rather have signed for us. He has no track record in the league anyway and I doubt he is much of a missed target. 1 goal in 12 league games and only ever scored double figures in league games once and that was in the Southern Premier league, level 7 of the league pyramid. Even the normally extremely optimistic FGR fans are not overjoyed at his signings, statting he has never scored goals at any level near the football league. £25k sounds like a gamble, but one they can easily afford to take. |

Talking of being without a club. I notice that our very own Nathan who didn’t want to sign a new contract with Pompey cos he wanted a crack in the Championship, still hasn’t got a club.
Not even a trial. No pre season training, apparently. Been going to the gym.
Hope Louis is doing OK by now.

Some Pompey fans I know said they had heard he was linked with a return to us! They said he was decent but gave away too many goals and most fans never took to him. Think he will struggle above L1 to get a team or to play at that level. https://fansonline.net/portsmouth/mb/view.php?id=771423 |

I thought Macanthony said that their 25k bid was derisory? Perhaps they’ve added sell ons etc? |

It was derisory until he realised nobody else would spend any money on him! |

...or we couldn’t match the wages FGR were offering him |

Source? I don’t do Twitter an stuff. I would have thought if word out there is a deal has been offered i’d Have expected it to have been agreed and signed. I cannot imagine the club would just shout out to all and sundry they have made him an offer. |

I still think it's someone who is meticulous with Social Media as opposed to a genuine 'ITK'.
Claimed Lyden without naming him when Alan Nixon had done so the day before.
Went with the Lang thing on the basis of the players Instagram comments.
Got Shamal George's hints wrong and assumed it was permanent.
Also pretended ITK for all L2 before it was quite clear it was Swindon focused.
Rumour mills are fun so I'll allow it.

I'm inclined to agree. There was player he said we'd signed, and somebody else noticed that the player was suddenly following the club on twitter. I reckong that was his 'source'. |

That was Isgrove. Obviously the Rumour Mill fella from last year but in the absence of owt else it’s all good stuff.
Tbf, if the Lang one comes off he did mention that before that Instagram post.
Any chance of a pre game signing before kick off?
