Re: Getting hairy: Portsmuff at home 13/4/24 3pm KO

Portsmouth score from there one or two chances, we dominate the entire match as usual, create 10+ chances and it just won't fecking go in, why won't it fecking go in, every week, every fecking week it's the same, chance after chance it's fecking painful to watch, and just to chefs kiss it, the team ...

Re: Race to the tape: 2024's League One promotion campaign

I wouldn't bet against playoffs for us but on the other hand both Derby and we have dropped points in games that on paper should have been an easy 3 points.

Re: Pirates but not from Penzance. Away to Bristol Sat 6th Apr. 3-0'clock

Just shows how much we've missed Baxter, I don't want to knock Coleman but without Baxter we'd be 1-0 down now instead of 1-0 up. Not sure that's fair. Been some nervy moments but I don't think Baxter's done anything different than Coleman here, except possibly settle a few nerves. Refs lost it, th...

Re: Ox on the box, c*cks on the blocks? Oxford (H) Tue 12 Mar, 8pm

I've had the feeling for a while that 433 is Evatt's plan for next season. He's admitted that he thinks it's a better setup, why wouldn't you transition towards it if you think that. It better explains some of our signings like Collins and particularly Gomez, you could see both of them as wide forwa...

Re: This Exe is on fire: Exeter (A) Sat 9 Mar, 3pm

So when are Dion and Baxter back, because all I see is us dominating teams game after game needing 18 chances to score then conceding from a nothing chance. Same pattern almost every week, absolutely hate it. How? How? Is that second half possible, even the away commentators said the first half was ...

Being torn apart by a team 30 points below us, who we smashed 7-0 at home. Pathetic.

Re: Raising the Bar: Barnsley (A), Tue 5 Mar 7.45pm

60% possession, 20 shots, ripped 'em apart time after time. We should have scored an absolute hatful. Such a shame we're not converting enough, even the penalty needed a rebound and at the same time giving the easiest goals away. But come on that second half after their goal, incredible, no one play...

I think the last few what 8? games are simple to understand, we're just shit in both boxes, everything else is pretty decent.

Re: From a Pompey fan what’s your view on Boltons chance for remaining few games?

I can’t say I wouldn’t be disappointed with not winning the league. That triple negative made my head spin. :grin: We've had our own injury crisis, which has coincided with a big drop off in form. We've managed to just about keep pace, but it's looking tough when you see our upcoming fixtures. I do...

Re: North by North West. Away to Blackpool Sat 24th Feb, 3-0'clock

I notice Derby and Portsmouth managed 1 point between them, the absolute bottle jobs. Form table. Last 6 games. Portsmouth top. Derby 2nd. We are 9th. Derby lost at Barnsley and Portsmouth drew away at Charlton. I don’t think that their runs can be described as ‘bottling it’. Ours can. And yet we s...

Mentally weak bottle jobs. As per usual.

These games were the test. Failed again. No excuses. They've just bottled it .

Re: North by North West. Away to Blackpool Sat 24th Feb, 3-0'clock

Playing really well for me, ref their best player, desperately unlucky not to score at least another 2. Same pattern as Charlton match, who managed to score 3 from an xG of about 0.3. We're just shit out of luck at the moment. Gomez playing brilliantly.
