Fri Aug 10, 2012 8:37 am

Could we expect him to sign today or the next few days aswell?

The following statement has been released by Pompey joint administrator Trevor Birch:

“We have negotiated a compromise agreement with Liam Lawrence, who will leave the club when the paperwork is finalised later today.

“I’d like to thank Liam for his support and all of the other players for putting the club’s interest ahead of their own. They have all had to make very difficult decisions and been placed in an impossible position which wasn’t of their making.

“This means that we have now successfully completed agreements with all of the first team squad and met the major condition of the offer from Portpin, which formed the basis for the CVA proposal.

“We will now aim to finalise our discussions with Portpin with a view to completing the sale of the club as soon as possible. The intention is to push this through early next week in order to ensure that player recruitment can begin as quickly as possible for the start of the new season.

“The offer from the Pompey Supporters’ Trust remains a fall-back position and we are pleased to note that the Council has agreed to provide a loan facility to support the Trust bid.”

Get him in on a free! Perfect type of player to have in the squad. If he managed one goal and five assists during a spell when he was carrying an injury then I'd happily have him here now.

Hopefully Mason will be up top more often. I think if Lawrence comes Harris will go on loan.

And Ralls. And Saint Luce. And Whitts. We seriously do not need this guy. He would bring nothing to the squad we do not have already and will take up a place which could be filled by something we do not have. Like a real, pacy winger of proven ability.

Lawrence is a quality footballer who was probably our best, most consistant player towards the end of last season when he got fully fit. He's a leader on the pitch and last season he showed what a fantastic delivery he has. Lawrence got several assists in his short spell with us and Helguson would be in dream land getting on the end of his crosses. If we could get Lawrence on a free and under 10k a week, I would have him like a shot.
