Re: Tonight's Football

Looks like another example of football being rigged towards certain teams to me. Absolute joke is that. Sooner these big 4/5/6 teams or however many it is feck off and play in their own league the better for me.

Didn’t say it was a howler, just one of them I can’t believe it didn’t go in!

We need to get a finishing coach or something though. Never seen a side miss so many sitters.
The one with the post is unbelievable! We woul have some compilation of misses this season.

Re: Breaking pots... Home v Port Vale Sat 20th Apr. 3-0'Clock.

Really hard to judge him. Really hard. I worry he’s a bit fragile - cos he’s never gonna go on a run like Collins is on now for goals. And if we’re one down at Wembley with 10 to go and it’s a choice between him and Jerome, it’s probably Cameron you would back to score. But he’s a good footballer an...

He played well Dan in that cameo. I’m not convinced he’s the man to bring on if you need a goal, but he helps make the ball stick, noticed we got a lot more throw ins to him. It’s just the goals tho innit.

Re: Breaking pots... Home v Port Vale Sat 20th Apr. 3-0'Clock.

If we're to be successful, it'll be through Collins. Gets us something out of nothing, that lad. He’s been a cracking signing. Another distinct air of ‘stop fecking about with this lads’ about his goal. I know we had to try and claw some goal difference back so it won’t necessarily translate to the...

Derby aren’t great. Still, that last game is an absolute gimme.

Santos looked fecked at the end of Pompey - we did well to get that out of him. Leave him this weekend.

Re: Breaking pots... Home v Port Vale Sat 20th Apr. 3-0'Clock.

We shouldn’t need Santos tomorrow - Toal in the middle. Would like to see a more attacking player than Forester playing, so hope Jones is fit. If not let’s get Dacres Cogley in there and play Randell or even Ramsay. They will just do what Shrewsbury did and let Forester and Toal have the ball. Demps...

Agreed on Charles - am hoping what we saw Tuesday was a reflection of him not being sharp, and the way to sort that is a start on Saturday.

Re: Season 23/24 Predictions

Interesting reading ⬆️.
Few picked Pompey as contenders but I’m guessing had hoped we would push them harder. That’s what is the most disappointing thing… we had the squad to push but our only consistency is our inconsistency…

He’s actually been fit for longer this season than others I think. But it’s what, 3 league goals? Was a mistake last summer, let alone next.

Aye - both the goals prevented by someone putting a crunching tackle in and possibly taking a yellow card. George Thomason of all people last night!

Re: Re: Twixt Cups and Lips. Home to Shrewbury Town, Tuesday Apr 16th 7-45.

See my fear with Oxford is we would assume we would coast the home leg, and that usually spells trouble.

Fundamentally we are finishing third or fourth and really should beat anyone we play. Blackpool wouldn’t want to play, given our record of bottling local derbies.

I always go back to what Ghost said. ‘If Plan A isn’t working, Plan B is to do Plan A better’ or similar… if Ghost had come out as Ian Evatt at that point I would not have been surprised!

Was there at a weird angle to it, but that Ogbeta chance… Was it as clear-cut as it appeared to me? Looked like 1. It should’ve been headed and 2. He should’ve followed the header with his full body weight to take anyone on the line with him. Looked like he should have buried it to me. And Iredale ...

It was basically give it to Maghoma and hope. Dempsey perked up on 60 mins. But not enough. I just don’t get why he left three centre halves on - one of which being forester who played like he had left his contact lenses out, and in slippers. It was crying out for Williams at half time, 433, give th...
