A few did look leaner, also Richardson appears to have bulked up a bit, looked very muscular. I'd quite like to see him with his shirt off.

That's strange as we were told last week he isn't a leader. I agree though, it's no coincidence that generally when he plays well Saints play well.

Cork and AL seem to be exceptions to the norm. Cork clearly said earlier in the summer he just wants to play football, hence why he is leaving Chelsea. Compare that attitude with that of the majority and it's a money oriented industry where players will turn there back on the clubs they kiss the badge of one week for an extra £5k a week somewhere else. I am delighted with Corks signing, not only is he a good player but he also seems like a good guy who is here for the right reasons.

I was tailoring my debate to suit its participants.

I've never actually seen the lad play and probably like a lot of people on here, never heard of him until we were linked with him. If what people say about him is true then it will be a great signing and apparantly a done deal. What about you sweetheart? Do you think he is coming? Is he good looking? Got nice thighs? What's his hair like?

I thought he looked good, apart from that one moment in the first half. Kept it simple and cleared his lines, which is the first rule for any defender. The lad clearly has a good future ahead of him.

Dont be so utterly ridiculous.

I think you are a 16 year old girl.

I forgot to mention his awful first touch which will be a massive problem against Championship level midfielders.

I dont understand what you mean. We were told this was the case by our experts on here only last week.

Oh the irony. YOu just dont get it do you. The point is that these players didn't join Pompey because they always dreamed of playing for them, or they felt they could become world greats by training on Eastleigh playing fields, it's because the deal offered was the best deal on the table. The point is that players will go where the cash is, this has been proven time and time again. You had a pop at Saint Richmond for stating the bleeding obvious, if you want better players you have to pay for them. Of course in your silly little world you wont understand this.

is sh*t, he offers nothing, cant tackle, cant pass offers nothing is not a leader and is not up to it at this level. Discuss......

There is always something to moan about isn't there.

Do we all still think Hammond is sh*t and not up to it at level?

Is he ITK?

You talk a lot of nonsense. Players will go to clubs that pay the best wages. This has been proven time after time after time. Do you think £80k a week John Utaka, Sol Campbell, Defoe etc etc were all at Pompey because they had always dreamed of playing for them or because it was the best deal on the table at the time? IF you want premier league players you have to pay premier league prices. Everyone with any amount of common sense knows this, except for people like you with your silly, naive little views.

I am particularly keen to hear from Saint Boggy, she seems like good fun and filth.

I really liked Bexy as well, shame she quit in a premenstral rage a week or so ago.

Same as. It is still making me laugh everytime i see the cover.

if you think Jerusalem is w*nk i suggest you watch this. Spine tingling stuff. More inspiring than GSTQ, IMO.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQ0oCmDXrVk&feature=related

3-1 saints Connolly to score first is 80/1 last time I looked. Got to be worth a fiver

Oh dear. Chairman sacks underperforming manager shocker Player fails to agree terms shocker Promote club puts up ticket price shocker Etc etc And your 125 year thing is a load of nonsense. What kit did we wear last season? What was written on our badge? And the programme is just f*cking hilarious. I bet we sell more programmed tomorrow than we have for years, everyone is talking about it and what might be inside. When has that ever happened about a matchday programme? Another brilliant move from nicky.

anyone that says they are not bother by Pompey etc, does not deserve a ticket to the game at Fratton Park and we could do without them there. BTW MIlton Aggros post is spot on.

bettcha do.....

He looks like he's lost his way to a darts match.
