Goal for THB! Edit: ah, not quite.... goal given to Jaden Philogene

A chance to watch a Saints player in action today... Live on YouTube at 12pm

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem. All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them going again. I trust you are not in too much distress" - Captain Eric Moody, June 24, 1982. RIP Sir 😥

Yeah, but what about the 12 year old football club that now play at Fratton Park?

Btw, should we send out a search party for @Lord Duckhunter? Incredibly surprising not to see him waxing lyrical about Ralph on this thread...

Indeed. And not to forget that at least two of the Utd goals were down to dubious (to put it politely) refereeing.

Yep... And we were 13 points behind Leicester... Who, of course, were in an "unassailable" position....

Just outside the box that....

Hmmm...

Yeah, but have they ever won the Championship 25 games unbeaten run trophy...?

Portsmouth Community Football Club have won 2 trophies in their 12 year history

No worries. It's never easy being right all the time...

*get

"Bournemouth.... a struggling PL side..."

How on Earth does Jordan Henderson still get picked for England....? #rhetoricalquestion

Our scheduled opponent this week is still in the FA Cup (Leicester)

Note to self: stop being baffled so easily

Yeah, fair point

People that care enough to read and comment on a thread they don't care about....?

Indeed. The pre-season's most baffling transfer IMO...

So, if a team can veto (unchallenged) a potential rearranged date, why didn't we veto the April date that PNE favoured...? Given a choice, surely we'd have favoured this week? Ergo, why does PNE's preference trump ours...?

I said it at the time, and repeat it now.... I'm baffled as to why we sold a prolific Championship striker when we (seemingly) didn't need to. Given how profligate we can be in the final 3rd at times, I can't fathom why we let Tella go (yes, we got a decent fee for him but what's that worth if we don't go back up at the first attempt...?)

No reason why we couldn't have rearranged the PNE for this week (unless they get a veto on choice of dates?)
