How did McCormack look going off? That's potentially a huge blow, he's been absolutely immense since he's come back in to the team and we don't really have a like for like in terms of experience and combativeness (I know the lesser spotted George Thorne is a DM but he's more of a playmaker than...

Did seem an odd one. I enjoyed the post on the Barnsley forum that concluded that Moncur was running over to our own bench to demand that he always starts games and this was evidence that he would destroy our team spirit though (Ignoring a) that our bench was on the opposite side of the pitch...

Been laughable so far. Keeper down injured in the second minute and it just went from there. Absolute embarrassment to football. Thank fuck we got the goal first half.

Yeah I'm expecting ours to be a right old state after the Portsmouth game, God knows what it was like under the snow but if the mud tracks Moncur left with his knee slide are anything to go by there's not going to be much grass left.

Christ we made hard work of that after the first half! Fair play to Pompey, they looked a different team second half. Bogle changed the game and is the first striker this season that has terrified the hell out of Bradley and Pearson. Clearly he is a class player at this level. Pompey looked good...

We've absolutely dominated this and should be 3 or 4 up, no question. Pompey struggling with the conditions which is odd because we've played some great 1 touch football in it. The missed chances worries me though especially after the first game of the season at Fratton. Hopefully won't be...

Suspected his days were numbered when Darragh whatshisname (who is also a prime twit incidentally) started openly questioning his team selections on Twitter and criticising the decision to play Tomlin wide in mid-week. Good riddance, absolute fraud of a manager and an utter plank to go with it.

Too lazy to look up such a thing but feels like Pompey haven't been off top spot since like September? Huge psychological boost ahead of Tuesday which is MASSIVE, cannot wait for that.

You don't get to act like you were right all along criticising Pelly when he was clearly our outstanding player of the season until December. Yes, his form has dipped since (and he was poor today) but if you say someone is shit even when they are playing out of their skin of course people are...

Back in for Graeme Jones and this time he's willing to talk (though no guarantees he will take it) per Alan Nixon on Twitter. Seems like he is definitely our first choice and looks the best on paper by a mile of the names linked, wonder what changed in a week though?

I think holding fire at the moment is the right thing to do, key games coming in so keeping to as little disruption as possible is a sensible choice even aside from the stadium issues taking priority. It's a tricky job to walk into in many ways. Usually when a new manager comes in it's because...

Moncur is a midfielder I believe and Harford was pretty explicit about bringing in a striker so I would assume there is two coming in if Moncur does join. Although bringing another midfielder in would allow us to play Lee as a striker so who knows? As Lee is primarily the point of the diamond...

Seems to be the general consensus from Barnsley fans. We've done alright with Barnsley cast offs of late though and we are light in midfield with Grant gone back to Forest. Pretty sure him, Lee, Potts and Pelly Ruddock were all in the same West Ham youth team so hopefully he'll settle well if he...

Sunderland probably benefit from a million pitch side cameras for the Netflix second season which I doubt they would share with us for the Hylton one. Only reason I can imagine it got overturned, no way is the main angle clear enough to rescind.

George Moncur from Barnsley to us in the near future according to their local BBC reporter. Don't know much about him but isn't he the one who absolutely ran the show against us at Oakwell earlier in the season?

Presumably we'll get the recommendation report for Newlands about this time next week like we did with Power Court? Should make for interesting reading. I imagine the Newlands meeting will be a more entertaining/stressful watch, you know Capital & Regional are going to come all guns blazing...

The two historically reliable ones haven't posted in a while and not at all since the management saga began. Basically no-one has a clue at the moment. It seems the Johnnie Jackson thing was a Twitter piss take that made the bookies some money. I suspect when we do appoint it'll be a name...

Penalty was definite from the angle I had, clearly impeded him but a bold call from the ref to be fair. Hylton sending off looked soft on initial look but replay is inconclusive and you never know with Hylts. The Collins one not long after could easily have been a red and probably would have...

First reasonable name I've heard anyone link us with is Graeme Jones, West Brom assistant, formerly assistant to Roberto Martinez at Everton and Belgium. An actually journalist claimed that one rather than the bookies so might not be complete bullshit. If we can't appoint internally that would...

Clearly no thought gone into it whatsoever, someone's just plucked a list of unemployed League One-ish managers out of a hat. Graham Westley was joint 4th favourite on the first list I saw ffs :bg: I was half-tempted earlier to stick £50 on Richard Money as the next gaffer, watch him fly up to...
