Saints foreva

I can't see any Championship club offering us £1.5m + for him tbh. We won't want to sell him for the amount we brought him for and will want to make a bit of a profit. I hope he is still here as he is the best striker we've had since Beattie.

One thing that I thought was brilliant yesterday was that St Marys had something similar to the Dell spirit, after the first goal it seemed like the majority of the crowd got on their feet to just try and give the lads some encouragement, a massive chant of come on you reds after their first goal completely drowned out the skates cheering. I would love if we could get that type of passion and atmosphere in our league games, but I can't see is as against Walsall I suspect we will go back to the usual 20,000.

Anyone see that Pompey fan next to the Northam block? Glasses, white away shirt, gormless looking, kept kissing his badge, about ROW FF. He basically summed Portsmouth's public up in one.

I suspect Puncheon will play a part in corners when he is actually allowed to play a match.

Unlucky Saints, 4-1 doesn't reflect the game but that is the scoreline. Lallana had a great game today, shame he didn't finish that chance before Barnard put it in the net...

Or chant 'F**k off Pompey'. That always seemed to shut up them.

Fonte, Semi, Seaborne and Puncheon I think.

Pompey fans seem to think they're got a couple hundred in the home ends......

I thought we played some nice stuff, right up until the 2nd goal. After that it appeared the players set their eyes on the Pompey game. Less challenges were going in.

When people say 'sell out' does the include the section in the Itchen Stand that has been empty on our past two 'sale outs'.

Who gives a ****, aslong as it sales out.

What a fantastic day, what a fantastic atmosphere. Fully deserved, well done Pardew and the team.

The game WILL go ahead on Saturday. I can't see Pompey being in wound up on Wednesday or put into admin before.

Sky Sports News just said they're in negotiations with hmrc.

I don't remember Crystal Palace having to do that.

He is such a overrated player. He looked different class last season at St Marys but so would I against that team we had.

TBH I reckon Saints would bottle it in the play offs. So we really need to aim for the top two. Charlton if they're still here will be in administration and have -10 so that puts them out of the question imho. I fancy Huddersfield for play off promotion this season, Swindon will be ones to watch next season. That leaves the sides who come down, I reckon it will be Peterborough and Plymouth. Not sure on a 3rd but these are two who I can't see being promotion contenders.

Did you go to the Exeter game last season in the CC? I found it a very hard stand to get an atmosphere going.

Pardew has no clue. Charlton fans seem right about Pardew and his team selections, why no Harding or Jaidi in the defence? I saw some Saints fans laughing at the Man Utd vs Pompey score - Why? We're struggling in League One despite spending £3m.

They're a small club so it isn't suprising that they're only bringing around 400. I think the highest away attendance they've ever took is what they brought down St Marys for that FA Cup game. I would just ignore them and let the team do the talking on the pitch.

Leave the badge alone. I am a massive fan of the way our badge looks and I personally think it is one of the best in football. (Not bias)

The majority of those fans were families. The Itchen North, Northam block 43 was full of them!

How are people getting two tickets?

So have they been saved?

And the big matter of Pompey for us..
