    If ever the phrase 'nicking a living' was apt.

    No point me offering his sponsored, signed shirt on here for auction then.....

    I thought he did OK for us and I seem to remember people being upset when he went to Millwall.

    Are you leading up to a bid, PL54 ? All monies made to The Upbeats fund...

  • is it time to review the racon / semedo threads of a couple of years ago and see who still thinks they were our 2 players who could have played in the prem?

    Lol. I'm with you in that one...if only there was a decent search facility on here.

    What a waste Racon has proved. He had real potential I thought to go on and be a decent player. Instead he appears to have been stealing a living last few years

    To be fair he spent much of his time at Millwall injured.

    All sounds very "Kelly Youga" - http://m.portsmouth.co.uk/sport/pompey/racon-on-roll-after-lions-injury-hell-1-4967889

    Think the average was something like 36k a year.

    Bloody hell (that's similar to me). Wonder if i ponce around in a tracksuit on my days off i'll be able to pick up a wag/ bimbo model at some nameless late bar?

    Do any of these players swagger up to the training ground in 'M' reg Peugoet 205's as well??

    I think "the French Connection" (and Semedo) were all rumoured to be on £6k a week plus when with us if I remember rightly.

    Not forgetting Martin Christensen!

    Who can ever forget Martin Christensen?

    It was said around both five and ten years ago that league 2 players earned around 50 grand, including bonuses. It appears they're earning less now. Racon was a waste of every penny, he played, he disappeared, and did a Cruyf turn beautifully every twenty games or so. Would have been better with Arter or Josh Wright, players who at least bother to try and tackle. Let's face it if he cost you 500 grand or not, he deserved little more than 50 grand a year.

    The Utaka effect. If Guingamp pay you hundreds of pounds a week, why offer him 4-5 times more? It's not even as if he had bargaining power like Utaka's agent would have had with Pompey.
