Didn't want McCarthy, though a bit of solace taking him at 10 rather than trading up into the top 5 to do it. Love the second pick, think we can afford to give up those mid-round picks given the state of our roster. Don't have many next year either though we will get a couple of comps. Hopefully...
Ferguson said on the radio he'd have "no choice" but to rotate against you on Tuesday, so you should be facing a second string team (albeit they are probably as good as all of us down the bottom are anyway).
Not over for us, we will lose our next one because it's on a Tuesday and it's Wycombe...
On its own I'm not that bothered about the replays, we're all hypocrites, there are very few replays in R1 or R2 with league sides at home that draw crowds 50% of the size of regular league games, and it's probably not a whole lot higher for non-replay games either (we had 2 this year that both...
Yes, pretty much my thoughts. If the rumours are true that we lost interest from at least one of the top candidates because we won't budge on Corr/Betsy than that's really disappointing, but compared to Simon Grayson and Derek fucking Adams then this is a considerable upgrade.
Kennedy was the...
Christ I hope not. Just give it to Barry Corr until the end of the season.
I don't like Harris, I don't rate him, as I said in the relegation thread I wasn't entirely confident we'd be alright, but this is probably a distraction we could do without.
Our fixture list is absolutely rancid, and we've shown neither an ability to do well at home or beat anybody vaguely good recently, which the above list doesn't make good reading for. I think we're good enough to stay out of it but I am worried, it's a good job we beat Carlisle at the weekend...
Are there any pubs closer to Fratton station than the Good Companion that let in away fans these days? We've been in the Brewers Arms before but Google suggests that's shut.
Harris said, "If at times we have to be ugly away from home, so be it to gain results".
I mean, he's not wrong, but if that's gonna be his approach against every team in the division then away games are going to continue to be a real fucking slog for us for the duration of his time here, like...
I thought you were crap again to be honest, but so were we for the first 70 mins which was the difference between the first two games.
Screamed like the sort of game that happens to teams that end up getting relegated.
The statement is a lie, there was no local power outage. Nothing sinister about what happened, they've just built facilities that use more power than they have available to supply it. Believe this was the 4th time this year something like this has happened at their games (with this being the...
Exeter were (possibly excluding us at times over the last 18 months) the worst team I've seen at this level since we came up. Absolutely atrocious passing, consistently hitting it out of play, and a striker up top wearing 13 who looked very much like a sub goalie being asked to do a job in...
The only positive I can muster from this is that I thought Bonner was a shite appointment too, and that ended up working out very well.
I just don't get it, we've got rid of Bonner (rightly) because of poor results, tepid football, an inability to get results away from home, and a piss poor...
Daryl Clare and Matt Tubbs.
Inevitably when we signed Clare at 57 years old he was utter shite, scored 1 goal from a yard out, and missed about 6 months with a broken fingernail or some such shit.
Good game, fair result, obviously annoying to miss a last minute penalty but as said Vale could have been two up before we got one.
Two teams who should be comfortably mid-table. Biggest problem for us is we have a lot of players who are great off the bench but aren't/won't be effective from...
Not sure what the source is but the chance of this happening is barely above 0%, he's our starting right back, our only right back, and probably the player with the highest potential resale value in our first team, if he were to go it wouldn't be to League 2.
