St Chalet

We are pressing them into big errors.

We’ve looked great. Not sure we can keep this intensity for 90 though!

Let’s spoil the party.......

I'd put Bertrand in at LCB and Targett LWB. RB did really well there for Koeman a few times.

Presume Ings can't play so I'd give Sims a start with Redmond or Austin up top. Defend well, hit them on the break.

Cream rises to the top, I don't think he'll make the grade with us. Given his wages I suspect we'll struggle to find a buyer in the Summer.

Wow. Didn’t think we’d hold on!

Yessssssss! FT 0-1

This is massive to hang on here.

Fixed it for you

Loanee to us about 10 years ago.

We are too nice. Bertrand makes a meal of that and it’s a second yellow / straight red for Dale Stephens.

Agreed. Poor kid.

COYR!

It’s a really fair point. If we’d have spunked £10m+ on him he’d have had more of a shot.

To be fair that article says a lot about JWP. Also to be fair to Pompey Pravda Neil Allen there are a few quotes in there that will have the few foaming at the gills..

Awful football, by all accounts the David Brent of football management. Reports of the vitriol towards him became urban legend (see Beautiful South fanzine taken out of context) That said, I'd have had him over Pellegrino in a heartbeat - easily the worst manager I've known.

Mane and VVD had great nights, until they return tomorrow to find their houses burgled.

Given the recent crash and subsequent grounding, would value our esteemed experts views on whether these two crashes are related?

Based on today, Gunn is ahead of Heaton.

Weirdly the correct team for Poch would be Barcelona with their ethos of bringing through the academy. MoPo is a good manager but has technical flaws (over training and no plan B) which means he will never be an ‘elite’ manager.

I watched some of the game, they are truly awful. When I think back to our League One side it’s not even close.

I've added a poll. Everyone played their part second half, but Sims changed the game for me. Another assured performance by JWP and Gunn as well.

The Match Thread is could be moved to Golden Posts, if you'd have watched the first half you might not have watched the second!
