The more I read about him, the more he sounds like Ralph again. Kind of begs the question why we ever bothered with this whole possession based identity thing. Let's hope we can unlearn some of it quickly.

Agreed. Given Blackmore's latest message, it wouldn't surprise me at all if we hire Rohl in the summer.

I expect it's because Potter has a proven style that would suit us and a solid track record of performance in England with similarly sized clubs to us. Not that I think him coming here was ever going to happen.

I think if that were true we wouldn't have appointed him so quickly. I am not thrilled by this appointment but he clearly wasn't our only option.

Sounds like six months with an option to extend at end of the season.

Hopefully. I'm wrong but this is an extremely uninspiring appointment on the face of it.

Soggy seems to know an awful lot more about these mysoginist rape apologist types than anyone else on here. You could say he's the go to expert.

Looks like he's been too busy being interviewed to post on here.

Half the problem is that Starmer just isn't an inspiring person. It feels like when Theresa May was in charge with no inspiration and nothing to make people feel good about themselves and their situation.

I would say we have an absolutely tiny chance of survival but one big positive is if it really has been the system stifling us, the potential is there to get a lot better. It's not as if we were performing to our maximum and the players just weren't up to it.

Loads of positives from that second half which is really all you can ask for with three days since the last game. Fair bit to build on there.

Exactly. "we are nothing like the evil Tories, we actually care. The adults are back in chance and you can trust the government again." ahem...

I assume the bloke has an ego. I'm addition he was unknown in the West and owning a football club will massively raise his profile which I assume would benefit his other business interests.

Is it my imagination Or have I finally found something worth living for? I was looking for some action But all I found was Fernandes and Danny Rohl.

Danny rohl's red and white army we hate pompey.

I agree. Seems like an odd thing to do if they weren't fairly sure which way we were leaning.

I listened to the rest is politics this week and although Alistair Campbell is undoubtedly a bellend, what he says about Labour being unable to tell a good story or talk about things in a positive way is dead on. I'm surprised by how amateurish their communication strategy has felt. Surely they should be focusing on their successes and talking about how they will be making everything better rather than just talking about how they know every single thing they are doing is terrible but it's not their fault and we should blame the tories? They have had some successes over the past months - few as they are - yet they've barely focused on them at all. Seems like an odd way to play it unless they think they can just sit around looking morose for the next 12 months until the economy picks up and everyone just forgets about it. Starmer has the worst drop in the polls for a new pm ever. If that's not a failure of communication strategy then I don't know what is.

If they had looked like that I'd be running in the opposite direction...

I agree with you they don't deserve compensation but bit of an own goal really to be so vociferous in support and then renege as soon as you get in power. If your promises are worthless when you're out of power then why should anyone ever listen to anything you say in opposition?

Also Streeting signing the waspi woman pledge in 2017. Labour are pissing off an awful lot of different groups.

Welsh choir boys have changed a fair bit since my day.

That would be hilarious and a very saints thing to do.

Is like to see Sulemana given a run of a few games where he is encouraged to run with the ball and use his pace. Might be useless but I haven't seen much of him in a team that plays to his strengths.

Indeed. Using that logic, no one would have wanted naresca before he walked the league with Leicester and is now a big success at Chelsea.

I must admit Corberan is my least favoured choice. Not convinced he's markedly better than Martin.
