    Portsmouth fail to pay players' wages for second time


    Portsmouth have confirmed some of their players have not received their November salaries, the second time this season they have not been paid on time.
    A Pompey statement read: "The majority of the first team squad have not yet received their November salaries.

    "A proportion of their wages will be paid on Friday, with the club's new owners working towards paying the remainder over the next few days."
    The Premier League side's squad were also paid late for September.

    That followed Sulaiman Al Fahim's takeover from Alexandre Gaydamak at Fratton Park, when Al Fahim promised to inject £50m into the financially-troubled club within a matter of weeks.
    But Portsmouth were sold again in October, to Saudi business tycoon Ali Al Faraj.
    Al Faraj acquired a 90% stake in Pompey, leaving Al Fahim as the non-executive chairman with a 10% stake.

          The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.
