Uncomfortable Executives

As previously reported, the Hydra history seems to be repeating itself at Portsmouth. Al Fahim is keen to portray an image of a man who has every intention of making the deal happen. He gave a lengthy interview to this effect to tame insider Bhoyrol at arabianbusiness.com.

However this picture of a man who will walk out at Portsmouth FC to the acclaim of the crowd as the new owner of Portsmouth is causing some raised eyebrows at the club. It appears that Al Fahim had not discussed his intention to appear at Saturday's game with Peter Storrie and owner Sacha Gaydamak.

Al Fahim is determined to claim that the takeover is on track and it seems only Gaydamak can pull the plug on Al Fahim's procrastinations.

The relationship between the two men has grown frosty since Storrie's recently leaked email. As it stands, the Executive Box is set to be unusually uncomfortable.

It is looking increasingly likely that the prospect of Al Fahim coming to Fratton Park will be the tipping point of this long-running affair.
