about 4 out of 40 out posters on this thread are mental? Think you are wrong - but also arrogant in dismissing the optimism of our fans

adminstration, no ground support, no squad, academy etc etc how would they be in a better postion? you just love them!

why, you have seen what we are saying and how excited about football we are - they would love to be in that position.

we are all excited about tomorrow and the season, they are dreading it and not wanting the football to start, sure most of them would love to be in our position

see Millwall build up thread -about 7am

started thinking want Dr Liar to admit defeat - but now think the longer he keeps this going without completing the better!

80 miles - in ten hours? ultra marathon runner do 100 miles running in 15 hours!

they appear so unprofessional, you do wonder if they will be first prem side into admin.

agree with all of that.

you have continually suggest he is failing all week. Its not made up. I don't think our team is good enough - yet - but think it is progressing well and lilely to get better. I think our team is better than last seasons and although relegated were not totally disgraced. I have no need to make excuses -why would I? Millwall are some pundits favorite for the league - I don't know enough about the league to say - just it will be lower standard than the one we were in with worse team and manager last season. - Could easily find links if you are getting precious about it?

a win for league favorites shows a manager just appointed is failing? ffs. so we win and all is ok?

fact they have no defence is swinging towards a saints win

really not sure what order I would put those in???:confused:

Saints We have a lot to be proud of -and to look forward to. Skates are embarassing at the moment, their bogus Dr, losing all their players, players fighting, poor crowds, signing players who are either retired or released due to not being up to league 1. I was driving along M27 yesterday and drove by a car covered in skates stickers, years ago I would have scowled - I laughed out loud!

Millwall are division favorite. Do not have fit defender. Not managed to complete their desired signings. We have a very good back four available tomorrow. Hope you enjoy tomorrow - I'm really looking forward to it

sorry, that was never going to happen, you have to understand our team and attracting the right players more - maybe when we get back to prem our owner will go for big names but at the moment these are ideal signings. Do you watch Saints?

Shilton top - Neimi not even close Probably due to Neimi, Flowers, Grobelaar, Davies and of course Katalinic!

Skates claiming to have managed 12,500 for the premiership - pity we couldn't beat that for 3rd tier but not far off! Wonder what our up to date total is? http://www.portsmouth.vitalfootball.co.uk/forum/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=7772&posts=9

think OBS is still surprised we haven't got Ashley Cole yet and only got Harding!

Do we need players fast - no, but we do need a few additions before end of window Are you frustrated - not at all, most transfers are within last 24 hours of window More optimistic as have been impressed by Cortesse and Pardew Are we ready for the season - no totally, but due to the late takeover that was never likely, but we do have a basis of a good team.

Probably one of top 3 keepers at Saints in recent years, but embarrassing for skates to sign players coming out of retirement - should have stuck with Tranmere released players!

I would have been pretty disappointed if our preseason signings were Neimi, Bopp and Finnan!

Do you go to games? Just wonder how anyone who went last season and has already seen Murty/ Harding this season - can not say the addition of two decent fullbacks, and replacing Lancashire with Thomas, and adding Saga/Rasiak to no just DMG last season - is an improvement????:confused:

agree - we are much much better balanced already

only seen Harding once - but he played better than I ever saw Surman as LB - you are wrong. Thomas is better than Lancashire - he is playing - no contest. you are wrong. Don't think Cork is as good as Perry as CB - he will be but not yet. Bet wooton played more last season than he will this year - so you are right we have improved again. Pretty convincing improvements - before you add better management and scouting and playing in lower league with unified (apart from you) support
