Re: We Must Beat-a-borough - Away v Peterborough, Sat Apr 27th 12:30

If Derby have a limited bunch of players, they need to ask why their wage bill is easily the highest in the division. But hey-ho How many of derbys players would you pick in our first 11? Their manager and their organisation is worth a lot of points to them. I have absolutely no doubt about that. 4...

Derby strolling to a 2-0 win despite being under the cosh whilst we are 2-2 after dominating proceedings highlights why we're 3rd and they're 2nd.

Looking like 6 points from the must-win last 4 games. Meanwhile, Derby got 10. Consistency gets you up.

Re: The Nostradamus file....

Of the playoff contenders, Barnsley are the only team we haven't beaten this season.

We need to get a finishing coach or something though. Never seen a side miss so many sitters.

If we're to be successful, it'll be through Collins. Gets us something out of nothing, that lad.

I thought Caleb was a RWB, is that wrong? Does he do both?
He's primarily a centre back although has played on the right of the 3 I think?

Re: Dem Bones, Dem Bones, Dem Bare Bones....

The annoying thing is we've spent over 2M on forwards and are playing CJ out of necessity.

Peterborough seem even more capable than us of stinking the place out on occasion.

Barnsley for the revenge factor, but Oxford I feel would be the better fit in terms of style of play.

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

The way we play is, broadly speaking, fine. It's just that extra 5% and killer instinct/'nastiness' for lack of a better word that we lack.

We play nice football but that's it, we're too 'nice' to the opposition gifting them chances and not taking our own

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

I don't want him sacked and it'll be mutual consent or him getting poached most likely, but it's so frustrating constantly shooting ourselves in the foot time after time. The constant inflexibility is infuriating.

The best teams, like Pompey this year, find a way to win consistently. We don't.

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

I'm increasingly of the opinion we should part ways in the summer, regardless of the playoffs outcome.

Not a sacking, per se, but he has ambitions higher up. The lack of killer instinct is just chronic.

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

We're incapable of scoring important goals aren't we? On another note. Barnsley are giving it a good go at Pompey, they would be destroying us tonight. Distinct lack of a killer instinct throughout the team. We play nice football most of the time though, which seems to be good enough for a lot of p...
