Which is kinda funny considering that is what most of us were saying on the original thread before the do gooders got involved

About all the rainbow laces stuff, Stonewall were in the metro saying they didn't want footballers to come out for the sake of the fans.... Citing it was a personal decision and nothing to do with the fans.

FFS didn't we learn anything from Nige? One game at a time boys and actually don't really see any season defining games at all this season. We aren't going down and we aren't getting into Europe (Excluding League cup) as to what position we finish (Anywhere between 16th and 10th in my opinion) wont throw up any "Season" defining games.

Cheers for posting that Alps, had never heard that story before. A different personality and we probably wouldn't be here writing about it.

I cant quite seem to find the article written about what fantastic owners they were, running the club in the right way and how they would preserve your clubs future and build a new stadium .............. It went missing about about a week after they were arrested . Goodness only knows who would have written that.

There was a bit in The Sun last week (Didnt see anyone post about it) with an interview with Fonte, who said that the players had got together to sort out Osvaldo with a car and a house to make sure he felt welcome and that is teammates wanted to show him they were here to help. It was a throw away interview, but great to see that spririt of togetherness is still alive and well.

Sky sports news

What Rubbish. 99% of wealthy people I know work way more hours than your average 9 - 5 man in the street.

But what if the wealthy have worked, 2 , 3, 4 times as hard to earn their wealth

Can't believe the apathy on here considering this is by far our best chance of reaching Europe. Is it something to do with the Prem? This would have been a 4 page thread started the moment the final whistle went last night when we were in league one. Is this cup really meaningless these days?

Can't see any other posts on it - I think we are number 8. A win for a place in the quarter finals

Intresting and a little dispointing - I have never advocated that we should increse the stadium, but thought we would be close to (If not sold out) sell outs in most games. We are who we are - Maybe those figures shown are a truer reflection of the size of the club, than some of us would like to admit. One thing i would add is (And i cant remember what games it was) the official site would have games down as sell outs, a week before a game and then when you actually get there, there are pockets of empty seats all over the place - I've never understood this.

I think J Rod will lose out to Gaston

I am afreaid not Rallyboy. Home defeats to league minnows simply means they wheel out "Press template number 2", which explains how opposition teams are raising their game when they come to pompey and feeding off the amazing atmosphere. With a surname like "painter" you could be forgiven in thinking he perhaps has more to offer fratton park, than playing football. http://www.portsmouth.co.uk/sport/pompey/painter-away-sides-getting-buzz-from-fratton-visits-1-5516668

http://www.pompeyonline.com/tesco-plans/ Oh Dear, things getting a bit heated down the road. Some nut job even wants some transparency over the deal with Robinson The Tesco plans don't appear to leave much room for any sort of expansion and few of them have just realized they might not be getting a new stadium and they might not get a new stand :) : )......Why didn't they just read this thread. http://fansonline.net/portsmouth/mb/view.php?id=514376

Still nothing official

Just like they did when they last played against us......................Oh

Anyone feel sorry for this guy?

Encouraging gerrard to shoot there

Hmmmm, not sure they are quite there yet. http://lordpalmerston.wordpress.com/2013/09/20/pompey-supporters-trust-agm/

Ahh yes and one of my favorite one liners from the whole saga. Barrister; And what makes you think these footballers are worth 50 million. Storrie; My 25 years football experience :lol::lol:

Cant believe I forgot to mention Steven Davis who was outstanding when he came on and really impressed.

Its amazing isn't it. I thought he was outstanding yesterday and then come back to find people who didn't go to the match have written him off as rubbish.

Hangovers are so much more bearable with 3 points in the bag. Top day out and first shout out goes to the Saints fans who were brilliant yesterday...... Now, where to start. Lovren - Pure class and a fantastic buy. Surprised not to read more about the header. He had to beat two defenders, turning away from goal. Fonte - Juts keeps upping his game. Most people thought he would be the Centre half that lost his place, Lovren is getting the plaudits, but Fonte is playing his part. Highest fantasy football defender? Osvaldo - In a week when we have had far too much champions league ******** chat, watch this guy closely and you'll see how far off we are.....and that's not him, that's the players around him. This lad is a different class and anyone posting he was cr@p or is a waste of money should be banned from posting. He is two steps ahead of the rest of the team. Boruc - Two great saves. Wanyama - still making some mistakes but just bullys and bosses that midfield. I guess the argument that we should just enjoy and relish in wins like that, is right and I am, but there is still work to be done. The shape up front, isn't working 100% and we do give the ball away to cheaply sometimes. Gaston still has to come back into the team. I think Jrod will lose his place. And a final shout out to mignolet the first one handed save and then the triple save were incredible.
