The only way I see him changing his mind, or a way he could still save face by changing his mind, is if he had a arguement with his board, or if they denied him a transfer kitty they they didn't deliver or something.
I wouldn't be suprised if all this shit affects his teams performance, if only in the short term.
On a completely different tangent, the Pompey first eleven, when fit, is quite impressive. The Pompey squad, however, is shite. My lass said the bench today was a disgrace, and utility man Richard Hughes has apparently played his last game for the club.
If four players leaving a team can COMPLETELY change the abilty of the squad, then you haven't got much of a squad at all.
Also, I see Benjani has lost his scoring boots, and Nugent is still a championship player mackems.gif
