I think it was OK that he gave Stuart Gray a chance as a manager, but he really made a terrible error in appointing Steve Wigley. The seeds of our relegation were sown with that crazy decision. With the Radio Station and the catering I think he started to believe his own hype at that time.

The point is our squad was better than Forest, Bournemouth and Fulham who weren't in the Premier League at all. It's ridiculous to keep throwing back into the past when at the point of takeover we were in a position lots of clubs would kill for

Yes but when SR took over Fulham, Forest and Bournemouth were all in the Championship, if you go want to back further in time to the Pellegrino season Villa and Wolves were in the Championship as well. All of those clubs can start from further back than us and establish themselves in the Premier League then it kind of destroys the argument that we are bad now because we were bad in 2018. However you look at it plenty of other clubs would have killed to be in the position we were in on the day SR started.

Sorry it is stupid to go all the way back to Koeman. When SR took over, Fulham, Forest and Bournemouth were all in the Championship. SR bought an established Premier League club and fucked it up all themselves. Wittering on about Claude Puel is as irrelevant to what has actually happened and why.

Odd comment. They just have a slightly smaller stadium than us. On every measure Forest are a club comparable in size to us, if anything with potential to be bigger as they are in a bigger city. And the small fact they've won the league and the European Cup, twice.

This guy thinks Juric gets more money out of us if we put him on gardening leave than if he comes into work. Jesus wept. Fuck knows what keeping Juric in place does when even you don't want him next season.

If I was a Pompey fan I'd be booking a Travelodge around Wembley now before they all get snapped up in the rush.

So you want Juric in position for the entirety of next season, yes?

We're paying all of them regardless. I'd rather pay Juric to not be here.

Is keeping Juric going to turn us into Barcelona for the rest of the season?

It's just stayed the same. Your boy Martin was just as shit with his own hand picked team, a full pre season and players signed up to his system, his process. Juric had none of that - he inherited a sack of shit not of his making. We can lose every single game for the rest of the season but even if we do, that doesn't change the fact that Russell Martin was fucking shit.

Were they singing "we want Juric out" at the whistle?

So just to be clear, being impartial is a broadcaster saying exactly what the government tells it to?

I've got absolutely no doubt that this will be a straightforward victory no problem.

Right you are, sweetheart.

Yeah, don't quite buy it. You're regularly watching Sky and Channel 4 News and all the written media - lets say The Guardian and the Telegraph - but the only opinion you seem to offer up is that you don't like the BBC's description of Hamas. Seems an incredibly niche concern for someone such as yourself consuming so much news and current affairs content from such myriad sources.

"A variety of sources" and still you cannot name just one. Third time of asking. Name a variety, name one, do what you like, but you can't seem able to.

Jesus wept. Still waiting for you to name another balanced news source you are using whose record I have no doubt will be absolutely faultless and unblemished on the standards you are requiring.

Sorry to break your heart but the BBC call terrorists, terrorists. Anyway, you can actually name a more balanced news outlet if you like.

New name for the Summer Transfer Window thread on here just dropped.

They pulled the documentary and admitted the error.

I have to say it is very difficult to see on the news all the planned developments at Old Trafford. If only we had gone through with the vision and ambition of Nicola Cortese that would definitely be us today 😪

Juric not being great doesn't, by default, make Russell Martin any good. He was a dogshit Premier League manager.

Jesus wept.

Five Live inexplicably used Nathan Jones as a Premier League summariser for while post sacking as well.
