Just been on the site. The 12/13 is the season years (i.e. 2012 and 2013). Saints are 7-1 to finish top half, here: http://www.skybet.com/football/premier-league/event/14173594

If that's 13-1 to finish top half I'm having a slice of that. I'm still convinced we'll finish top 8 (said the man who predicted auto promotions the last two seasons....)

I'm already bracing myself for that one in a few months.

I'm convinced (in a 'just a hunch' kinda way) that Adkins will have Ward-Prowse in the starting line-up vs City. I'm getting the impression during pre-season that he's being fast tracked into the 'first 11' for this coming season. That said, who I would drop to accomodate him I haven't a clue!

^This I know it's a much worn cliche, and gets a drubbing on here whenever someone dares to mention it, but when you think how far we've come in so little time there's nothing really to moan about in the general scheme of things, is there?

Indeed. And hopefully a relatively high profile (for us) signing like this will help convince any other players who we're trying to convince to join us. The likes of Michu and Zaha perhaps?

Jed Wallace ‏@jedwallace62 As if I've gotta sing infront of the first team staff and players again on saturday!!! ‪#pompeyxfactor‬ song suggestions??

Do I need to put my coffee down before opening that link...?!

Brilliant!

P.s. has someone let them know that Tommy kept a clean sheet yesterday...?

It's actually an improvement on their investigative skills over the last five years. Just think what calibre of owner they might have been able to avoid had they had the Internet at Pompey HQ a few years ago...

Good to see a journalist that's as flabergasted as we are... "And having left all their senior players at home in a bid to sell them and raise funds, the Portsmouth work experience scheme has continued apace, with news the club have taken on three more trialists to join the eight they already have at their Spanish training camp. Lord knows the Fiver's no financial wizard: but "Spanish training camp"?"

Ward-Prowse to start vs Man City please Mr Adkins

@TomCoull: Guly has been fantastic, Puncheon too. I'd say we're almost playing a 4-1-4-1, the 4 midfielders joining the attack at will. #saintsfc
