Totton Saint

Why can't the players be told to go out and play spontaneously, like we did for our school teams. Tactics are ruining the game for the paying public. Did Le Tissier need coaching or tactics. No, he played off the cuff.

I remember Terry Paine and John Sydenham. What a character Brian O'Niell was!!

Hello, As it turned out the environment was far from intimidating. It was a real anticlimax and an utter damp squib. Especialy after Sky's over the top before the game build up of the supposed rivalry between the two clubs

I bet Robinson felt sick not starting. Being dropped for an untried newcomer must be demoralising Too many newbies picked so soon.

I agree the long balls were just gobbled up by Pompey. Also the long punts were made after several crab passes during which Pompey could mark our men. why not hoof it up straight away if we had to resort to such tactics. I thought 1st half was the worst I had seen from Sts. forget about promotion.

Thanks `- very enlightening

I think Still will have a job on his hands keeping all of, the now, bloated squad happy.

how can opinions re. Baz vary so much about today'a game.

Been making my eyes tired all match watching the forum for nothing.

What is IPTY please?

We are, or should be a FC not factory

Gives Robinson a chance to fill his boots. No one is indispensable

Considering how many years football he has left in him at his age I do think we should have got a better price for him.

I thought the camera work was poor - loosing track of the ball a few times. Also only few shots of saints fans.

Bloody international break permitting
