[LNB]Quite why anyone at Fratton Park would think the Israeli could be the man to yank them out of the rather large hole they are falling into is a mystery. [LNB]  [LNB]Former Chelsea boss Grant had a previous spell at Fratton Park[LNB]Grant has been at Portsmouth before and earned the nickname BBC - balls, bibs,  cones.

[LNB] His only real managerial experience is in the football backwater of Israel and  gambling on him to prevent Portsmouth dropping into the Championship would be a huge mistake.[LNB][LNB][LNB][LNB][LNB][LNB][LNB][LNB] Fulham 3 Portsmouth 1: Avram lined up as the Adams axe looms[LNB]Bolton Wanderers swoop for Portsmouth midfielder Davis in £2m deal[LNB]PORTSMOUTH FC NEWS FROM ACROSS THE NET[LNB][LNB] [LNB][LNB][LNB] [LNB]
