Minor detail that they conveniently forget (along with the kids cancer charities!), you really couldn't make it more farcical if you tried !!! Ps. and Ho is concerned about a chant for Lallana, LOL !

You're getting desperate now Ho !! Merry Xmas HO HO HO

Accrington Surly !

FFS, leave the guy alone !

Boyd is moody and has a bad attitude ! No room on the bus for his type !!

A neat summing up after 46,194 posts ! With only 2 posts yourself, you are clearly a man of very few words but thank you for encapsulating the situation so eloquently

Hear, hear !!

He would but they are worth f#ck all

Prince William came to the Isle of Wight but I wouldn't recommend it :)

Fair enough and I'd love to sign him, but best we don't assume that he is a racehorse and Guly is a donkey !!

Wasn't trying to score a point Revo, just showing that Guly is not the useless git that some would make him out to be (someone even said "he should never wear the shirt again"!). Even with Rickie as the talisman, he chips in with his fair share of goals and assists ! I also accept that stats are not the be all and end all, but it is quite important to make a subjective assessment rather than spit out vitriol as many seem prone to (not you by the way!).

He reckons that they are in a 'little bit of a mess' at the moment but much more attractive to buy than before ! Didn't realise he was so much of a Skate but worth a listen (keep a sick bag at the ready mind, a few comments to wind us up!).

http://www.portsmouth.vitalfootball.co.uk/article.asp?a=266146 We did Portsmouth Football Club proud and this has been commented on by a few people I have spoken to so far, Trina's old man today said to me that the atmosphere came across brilliantly with the 'language' that the BBC could not filter out also highly amusing. High standards, eh ? No wonder we have no respect for them !

Logically at SMS the Northam would be standing and the rest seated ! FFS, they stand up anyway !!!!

It is surely not beyond the wit of man to create 'safe standing' areas ! You just need more barriers and good exits etc.. the problems at Hillsborough and Ibrox were in ancient stadiums and, having learnt the lessons, there is no reason any longer for the health and safety bureaucrats to deny decent law abiding citizens their desire to watch football on their feet rather than their @rses !! Ps. I prefer to sit but am happy to fight for the rights of my fellow man !

Thanks for putting those up Rick, I wasn't there in the flesh but have total respect for those who did ! Whether they sang loudly or simply applauded, who gives a sh#t, you were there supporting the saints ! There were factors (ie. the bubble and lack of booze!) which no doubt kept the sound down a bit, but even on the crap telly coverage I could hear lots of chants from our end !

Herewith the NP Championship goalscorers : Npower Championship Top Scorers Lambert Southampton 15 McCormack Leeds 10 Andrews Ipswich 9 Henderson Millwall 9 Sharp Doncaster 9 Wood Birmingham 9 Austin Burnley 8 Davies Barnsley 8 Fryatt Hull 8 Jutkiewicz Coventry 8 McCann Peterborough 8 Snodgrass Leeds 8 Chopra Ipswich 7 Cole West Ham 7 Guly Southampton 7 League goals only. Looks to me like the 'proper' strikers like Billy Sharp are not so far ahead of Guly and bear in mind that he does not always play in the striker's role (ie. early in the season when Connolly was up front with Lambo!). Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see another couple of quality signings but I think that we need some perspective in the Guly discussion ! Ps. Maynard and Rodrigues are not even on the list !

Believe it or not, neither was Matt Le Tiss ! Well not at the peak of career anyway

Don't forget Guly !

Some players display a different body language to others, MLT had a 'languid' style and Guly (albeit not in the same class!) has similar characteristics ! It doesn't mean that he comes off the field without having broken sweat !!

Would be nice if they had a 'Korean Spring' and the long suffering population were able to fight back for once !!

Salient points and you could actually have been talking about Matt Le Tiss as well ! I don't think anyone is saying that he had a good game yesterday but some of the reactions are way over the top ! Maybe we should boo him at the Palace match, that should sort it !!!

Sure Guly did not have a good game today but is it really necessary to use him as a scapegoat for dropping 2 points ? We win as a team and we lose as a team ! I will be cheering him as much as the rest of them come the Palace match next week !

I am pleased to see this thread and that so many agree that the coverage was dire ! I was watching with my daughter and we both commented all through the match just how amateurish the camera work and the commentary was !! Sky beat them hands down, no doubt about it !!
