This is Pompey Sound, and I'm not going to waste your time trying to defend the indefensible Trump, but Michael Eisner, come on.

Who foresaw our current plight coming down the barrel on August the 9th at Oxford last summer?

Oh, everyone now, is it?

I doubt it.

But if you read the social media, you'd think it was everyone at the time.

But it's simply not true.

No one foresaw the end of this season like it's becoming.

The Eisners sit eight or nine hours of time difference away and they rely on PO4 to communicate with them, to tell them the truth about the strength of the squad and the

cost of recruitment at championship level.

What's more, they're new to the game.

Like, I'll quickly say this, like so many of today's club owners, it's not just them, they've certainly never played it, they hardly probably watched it in the past, but they love it now.

And the Eisners love Pompey.

And they're learning, they're learning fast.

Michael Eisen has already lectured the football authorities here about the financial stupidity of the championship and there's every chance things will change in the near future.

Wage caps will be introduced and the premiership will pay its way to the pyramid and parachute payments, well they surely will be a thing of the past.

Having said all that, of course, the Eisners have made mistakes.

Michael Eisner's pronouncement that Pompey won't go down was one of them, wasn't it?

And maybe they haven't prioritised transfer budget spending as they should have done.

Maybe they haven't.

Maybe they...
