Pompey lost to Cheltenham (away)
As good as that is, we play Cheltenham (home) next in the league. Looking at Cheltenham's results, they're very much in top half of the table territory. 9th in the form table (last 12 games), we're 1st but it does mean that we can ill afford to look at Cheltenham as an easy touch just because they're 22nd in the league.

Nixon posted on Twitter this morning that we’re interested in ‘Onomah’, who I’m assuming is free agent Josh Onomah, formerly of Spurs, Fulham, and latterly Preston.
He’s a midfielder, so not really a position we’re weak in, and there would also have to be concerns about his current fitness levels. Not one I think anyone would be wildly excited about then.
Edit: wrong thread

Not sure who Lewis is. We have a scholar called Conor Lewis... who played for the U18s at 14 in Oct 2021 and has been scoring and assisting for them ...

It's him.
He was named as a substitute in the previous round iirc.
He's supposedly quite highly rated.

Thank you. He wasn't, but he was on the bench at Stockport in the Sherpa dead-rubber. This is a fair old step up in importance - although nine subs gives you that ability.nicholaldo wrote: ↑Sun Jan 07, 2024 1:08 pmIt's him.Dave Sutton's barnet wrote: ↑Sun Jan 07, 2024 1:04 pmNot sure who Lewis is.

Iles says he's a local lad and BWFC fan.

Four, apparently, but fans seem slightly surprised/happy with how strong they've gone.Dave Sutton's barnet wrote: ↑Sat Jan 06, 2024 9:55 amI don't think they'll make 11 changes from their 'best XI' (whatever that is) but I suspect they may make 3-5.
Re: F.A.Cup...V Luton away Sun, 7th Jan 2-0'clock.
Well its good that we've got youngsters finding their way onto the bench. Presumably if we're getting battered he may get a run out, I can't imagine us being comfortably ahead for him to come on.
As for Luton, they've got Andersen and Townsend on the bench. Andersen from that semi-final that caused us a tonne of problems and Townsend whose well known. They've not gone easy on us either, playing Barkley, who has been listed as possibly their best player of all time. High praise.
IIRC i'm pretty sure Luton's philosophy mirrors our own, so I suspect we're likely to see a war of attrition or a case of who panics the least on the press.
Either way, should be interesting. Guessing a Luton win, but beating them would be chefs kiss.

Sheehan might win a free kick today with it being a better calibre of referee. We'll see...

Well there you go. Had guessed he might end up in Saudi - fair play for trying to revive his career here. He should be miles better than our back line so be interesting to see how they get on with him.

Worse, it's the rejuvenated one. Ross Barkley the White. Barkley as he was always meant to be.
