I agree with you, that Villa thread is an interesting read with good discussion.

This is a big week for us, win tomorrow and be full of confidence going into Saturday. I'm confident we can score more goals than them, just need to keep Benteke quiet

I don't think this switch would excite me much! Dani is a better player than Vela

I think Osvaldo is so frustrating to people because we know he is a great player and he just isn't showing it. He needs time to settle, the English game is so different to Europe and so much more intense. How many players come to England on big money and fail to make an immediate impact! Give him a chance and Dani will come good. P.s. Mods really need to do something about the derailing of threads where 2 posters get into an argument and spend pages bickering the same points, reading this forum is getting tedious.

Taking our own mattresses and cleaning team away to hotels seems a bit diva to me!

Just bought ten tickets in block 5, this will be a really interesting evening. Anyone who can get to the game should make the effort to support the youth team in a big local derby. Plus it will likely be the last time we see any Portsmouth team at St. Mary's for a long time! For a fiver you can't go wrong

Signed. It's about time someone tried to do something about the corporate greed that's exploiting loyal fans and community clubs. Whether it will work or not remains to be seen but fair play for getting something started! Against Modern Football

BOOM BOOM BOOM, let me here you say league 2.... LEAGUE 2! WTFILN

lol

After alleged racial abuse of Ferdinand brothers. http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/12016/8604228/England-fans-face-lockout-over-alleged-racist-chants-in-World-Cup-qualifier Personally I think that's ridiculous. I didn't hear anything remotely racist and all they were doing was venting their feelings about Rio letting down his national team.

The table based around his predictions is awesome. QPR 6th? I bow down to your incredible football knowledge Mr Lawrenson.

Haha. Even after the aggro at our 3 games the other season I still look out for their results and hope they win. I guess dispatching them by 2 clear goals every game just made us all feel ''ah bless them and their small club''.

My first experience of uncalled for skate abuse came when I was 12 and played a golf competition at Waterlooville Golf Club. When I had to sign in at the pro shop and wrote down my club as Stoneham the pro's assistant said ''scummah ay?'' and then proceeded to go off into a deluded rant about why pompey superseded saints in every department especially the fans. From that day on, as soon as a skate sniffs out that I'm from an SO postcode, no matter how well we have got on before, the atmosphere changes! Mental.

The people that don't understand the hatred of the skates obviously don't have to work with one!!! Try and get into a footballing discussion with one, you can't, and don't dare accuse them of having bought the FA cup or say they have a smaller fan base than us because the only reply you will get is ''fack off scummah, 4-1''. There is no football club in the country with more deluded, ignorant supporters than them.

No.

Can see us comfortably getting 9 points, after constant worry all season I really can't see us going down now with our decent run in. I think they'll be a shock relegation this year from someone most people thought were safe... (West Ham?!)

It comes to something when relegation battles are £40 a ticket. Ticket prices are scandalous

I'm worried about Lambert becoming so ineffective. That was my main concern when we lost Adkins and sadly it's slowly becoming reality... We might need to go striker hunting in the summer

I never understand why every media stream in the country uses phrases like ''the passion of the supporters'', ''twelth man'' etc... and the tabloids even have a picture of a Liverpool flare at Wigan being celebrated as good support, but every steward and police man involved with football wants fans to sit on their hands. Atmosphere's in the PL are crap and it's directly due to over policing and the fact that football supporters get longer prison sentences for having a smoke bomb than a rapist would get.

Liverpool had some good banners at Wigan, football needs more of this image from http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2286507/Wigan-v-Liverpool-live.html

Welcome to the premier league!! AMF

Good effort lads!

I hope he relentlessly gets it today! It appears the footballing world are wising up to the twitch with the newspaper article on another thread and STAND AMF on twitter speaking the truth. All together now, ''he's gonna twitch in a minute...''

If our history is anything to go by then I'm sure we have some superstars in the making in that squad, well done boys!

Brown envelopes at the ready. I hope he gets the reaction he deserves!
