Flying Dutchman: Metgod departs Pompey Former Portsmouthassistant boss John Metgod, sacked along with manager Tony Adams this week, claims the club was a 'ticking time-bomb'. Metgod believes the need to balance the books by selling Lassana Diarra and Jermain Defoe in January dealt Adams a fatal blow. Metgod said: 'The personal situation of club owner Alexandre Gaydamak played an important role. 'The financial crisis meant he was having problems and therefore sold players for millions. We were a ticking time-bomb.' Remember me?
