unless he scores a hat trick every game, all six local man u fans are you going to hate him for the rest of his life, the foreigners that are obsessed with this team (browns and asians) will have to wait until they go on their yearly tours.

Manchester United fans are lovely; you have to threaten to kill your own players to stop them transferring to another club. In particular, this Manchester United player hails from Liverpool, and until signing a new contract today was being called a "Scouse ******" - now he is a hero again.

Are you still going to sing "Ste Gerrard, Gerrard... he kisses the badge on his chest... and hands in a transfer request..." to us?

;)

Portsmouth look set to avoid going out of business after lawyers representing former owner Sacha Gaydamak reached an agreement with the stricken club.

Pompey had suggested a row over ?2.2m owed to Gaydamak was preventing the club coming out of administration.

But Gaydamak's lawyer said: "I will be talking to Sacha tonight [saturday] and recommending the documents are signed."

Earlier administrator Andrew Andronikou had told BBC Radio 5 live he expected "common sense to prevail".

Gaydamak, Barclays Banks and another former owner, Balram Chainrai, are the Championship club's main secured creditors.

Gaydamak says he has secured debt of more than ?2.2m, and Portsmouth claim he asked for an unspecified amount of that to be paid up front and that they were likely to fold as a result.

However, Tim Stocks of Gaydamak's lawyers Taylor Wessing dismissed suggestions the former owner was putting the club's future in danger and added that there were merely some technical details to be agreed before a deal securing the club's future could be signed.

"There was never any demand of ?2.5m being paid in cash - there were five or six highly technical points on some of the contracts which I had agreed with the administrator," added Stocks.

While Gaydamak is owed ?2.2m, Pompey's former owner will receive ?2.5m in instalments over five years.

"I was baffled and saddened therefore to see announcements saying the club was at the brink, it has caused anxiety for no good reason," said Stocks.

"My instructions are to work towards trying to get an agreement and I hope to do so."

Stocks added: "This is a transaction that works for all creditors as well as Sacha so I'm hopeful we will get the paperwork signed. I would like to reassure Portsmouth fans that the club is not on the brink."

Earlier on Saturday Andronikou told BBC Sport that "a very unusual situation" had been "taken to the brink".

Big win for the Toon today. Carroll is still an idiot though.

Roy needs to be given more time, before we decide if he is a success or a failure. With the many bad things that have been going on around Liverpool this season, it's pretty obvious the on pitch form would suffer. Now the situation has stabilised, hopefully it will start to correct itself, however if it hasn't by the new year that is when I personally feel Roy may start looking down the barrel.

Good win for us today. Though I wasn't really confident after the equalizer (very nice goal btw). Hernandez is starting to become important for the team.
