Portsmouth away, 4th August

[SmokinFrazier]

Have Mills and Ream played together yet? That has got to be the starting pair next season, surely?

[Riviman]

2 down !!

[Tals-biggest-fan]

We're fecked if this is out starting XI

[Riviman]

Ngog off injured - hurt his back again.

[bobo the clown]

ffs ... I expect we'll get the "it's only pre season" stuff, but if St Owen tries to 'find the positives' I may have to think of unspeakable things, even for where I am.

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

Ngog off injured - hurt his back again.

Who's replaced him? The loan ranger or the old gunslinger?

Kevin Davies

I'm sorry but it's came to this, we are 2-0 down to a team that is struggling for players and a club that's nearly finished. We are playing 4411 which causes the same problems as a 442. Coyle is not learning from his mistakes and the seasons starts 2 weeks today

old gunslinger..... seems like the pecking order will go Ngog, Davies, Afobe, Owen Coyle, Sordell

Sordells with the team GB squad though isnt he?

[Lord Kangana]

Yes. Clearly a conspiracy between Coyle and Pearce to keep him out of the side.

[Jez]

Just saying we cant really claim Coyle is keeping him out of the side just yet.. theres a small glimmer of hope still...

[Relentless09]

3-0, this isn't good enough

[Gail Platz]

We're 3-0 down against a team that isn't even a team? It's a group of individuals they've just got together that aren't even getting paid to play football?

I said against Morecambe, our defence was cut open like a hot knife through butter, yet they didn't score. It's worrying, very worrying that we're conceding so many against teams in divisions below us.

I'm quickly losing confidence for Burnley.

[officer_dibble]

3-0 !!

best be a wake up call...

what pre season optimism?

[Tals-biggest-fan]

LMAO 3-0 down to a team that may not even exist in a weeks time... a team built on trialists....... we have a great team but they play like they're never met before

[CrazyHorse]

Promoted my arse.

[Gail Platz]

Promoted my arse.

I thought it was going to be tough before the friendlies started but I think we're fecked now.

[James B]

it's a friendly. who gives a sh*t.

Coyle had the cheek to ask if pompey were of sufficient standard to play us! The man who pitched us into battle against non league welsh cloggers last year.

Hope their boss gives him some shit afterwards - sounds like one team are not of a fit standard and it aint the ones going out of business!

[Turkish Trotter]

It'll be reet !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
