It’s great to see articles like this. All of the clubs backbone from the prem era speak so highly of the club.

Provided some great memories did Lenny! Could do with a few players with his character about the place again.

As above - this club will progress again if and when we can gather a group of professionals like him and his colleagues of the time.

You get the feeling Ryan was the captain but Glen was the one that when he spoke everyone took note |

You get the feeling Ryan was the captain but Glen was the one that when he spoke everyone took note Not sure it would work if I’m honest. There is this narrative that it all fell apart in the Prem when the backbone of the Pulis squad started the disperse (the so called Pulis ‘Cultural Architects’ lol). But that version seems to come directly from those people and I think if you asked others they may have a different view. I’m not sure Whelans leadership style is suited to modern management - going around tearing people new arseholes when standards drop doesn’t work anymore. Maybe it didn’t work with the foreign players that came into the club when he was still here? Of course if you listen to him or his mates version they’ll all say it’s because the new lads were lazy or whatever it is - but I’d be keen to hear from other perspectives. |

Literally forgotten about D'Margio thought he’d long gone. Hopefully get him back after loan spell & clearly not an Alex Neil type player. |

How did he lose £800,000 if he was only at Portsmouth for a year? Are you telling me his wages p/y playing for a lower league club were so high...no wonder the club was cashstrapped and troubled and probably still is...

Are you telling me his wages p/y playing for a lower league club were so high...no wonder the club was cashstrapped and troubled and probably still is... Could have given up his signing on fee as a free agent and if he was on a long contract which he agreed to terminate after 12 months? Even in the lower leagues £5000 a week is not unrealistic which is £250000 over a year. I would imagine he was a high earner and as captain he would have had a bonus on top |
