Premier League - Buyers eyeing Portsmouth bids

Eurosport - Wed, 04 Feb 20:58:00 2009

Portsmouth have revealed that they have had "one or two interested parties" look into buying the club.

FOOTBALL 2005-2006 Premiership Portsmouth Gaydamak - 0

Current Pompey owner Sacha Gaydamak (pictured) announced his intention to sell at the end of last year, and executive chairman Peter Storrie disclosed that any discussions on a sale of the Hampshire club are merely prospective at this stage.

Storrie said: "There have been one or two interested parties but there is a process they need to go through.

"I'm always hopeful but I can't say any more at the moment," added Storrie.

The club has previously dismissed talk of a South African group taking over the club.

Gaydamak invested £20 million into the club when he took up co-ownership alongside Milan Mandaric two years ago.

However, since completing a full takeover in July 2006, a combination of increased business commitments and the economic downturn have forced the Russian in to selling the club he bankrolled to Premier League survival and an FA Cup.

  2. rock and roll, have you nothing better to do than­ insult other clubs. Why dont you go and concentrate on­ your own team you sad little boy. Seems to me that­ portsmouth have actually made some money out of our­ players that we bought, like defoe, muntari and diarra,­ and we have signed some great players, also, you appear­ to be struggling yourself dont you? Tottenham is a very­ posh place i have heard... So you sad little boy, go­ f**k off to your own team,and talk to some people that­ will appreciate your comments.

  6. Ever get the impression that ROCK AND ROLLA got his­ butt kicked by a 12 year old Pompey fan the last time­ he came to Fratton. I think there is only one other­ peson as sad on the whole of yahoo, no Paul Parker­ don't worry it;s not you. Next time we play you­ down here pop on down, let me know and i'll come­ and break anything you can type with so we don't­ have to listen to your brainless comments all the time.­ Don't worry about me being able to spot you, you­ will be the one with the @#$% hanging from between his­ ears.

  8. just reading the mindless drivel from so called­ football supporters reminds me off why i no longer­ watch the game, players are overpaid, whilst rival fans­ taunt each over who is the best when if most of them­ had two more brain cells they would need watering. it­ seems the only people happy are the players who huge­ wage bills put up the gate prices so the above­ mentioned fans can dig deeper into their pockets to­ fund it so they can taunt each other.... and so the­ cycle goes on......!!!!!!!
