bloody hell davis

I think he's a good manager, but there wasn't too much wrong with us before anyway. At the end of the day a half decent manager should be able to get this team promoted from L1.

not totally ****e but not great either, we've hit the bar from a lambo free kick, lallana came close - but not too much threat other than that.

possibly - but we're a long way away from doing that.

so frustrating We're losing to Notts County in the bottom half of L1, and our reserve teamer - Mills - (not deemed good enough for us) is winning away at reading in the league above. I really don't get it.

They've been much more threatening though and they've got a goal...

sounds like we're getting into it a bit more now.

********, unlucky lallana - ball passed to him, controlled by lalana in the box and side netting

good header by Hammond - corner saints

brighton winning again. Looks like the league is theirs if they keep this up.

Tranmere was excellent, but we didn't hit the same level against Oldham. Alot of that is probably down to Tranmere being crap!! but we still played so well that day - could have watched us all night.

They'll probably get promoted now. In fact i expect them too, that's how justice in this world works.

We played 4-4-2 at Norwich last year i think, and we were terrific - totally outplayed the best team in the league. This is pretty much the same team, with a better RB. I don't understand why we are so poor this year.

only one team in this tbh

''couldn't quite get onto the end of it.......'' sounds like the slogan of our season.

very very poor start by the sounds of it. It's horrendous that a squad with this quality can struggle to maintain any level of consistency at L1 level. We just don't seem to be very good away from home at all. Still a long way to go, but it'll be very very tough for us to get anything now. I'm just not confident with us away from home this year....

we do not need him, we're fine defensively.

Most Notts County fans are up in arms about this. Similar reaction to when we sacked Pardew on their MB.

''Just thought of another point. Could we have our game moved to the Friday, Sunday or Monday as Bournemouth are also at home??'' lol

That was a great win, we weren't at our best today and i thought Oldham made a real game of it and were setup really well. The first half was pretty forgettable bar the first 15mins and the last min, we struggled to get any pressure built because Oldham were pressuring us at every opportunity and we kept giving away silly passes when we should have just kept the ball sensibly. 2nd half was a bit better, but i didn't feel we would win it until a change was made as we lacked any real spark. OxO gave us that, their full back didn't have a chance of catching him and the way he glided past a couple of their defenders for his goal was brilliant. He's a proper talent. Good performances from Fonte today and Seaborne (who has been faultless under Adkins) Butterfield was excellent too i felt, Richardson has a real fight on to get into this team...and also Davis, a great save at the end. That's the sort of 3 points we've been crying out for, didn't play well, came from behind and won. That's that hoodoo off our back and i can see the drive and motivation coming back into certain players. Now all we need is some away consistency...then we'll be flying.

Official portsmouth statement:

He is a good player, one of the best in his position at this level. He showed that last year when he was in form and playing in a confident, winning team. It will come again.

Gareth Bale ran our team most weeks tbh, from left back and at 17 years old, that's extraordinary tbh

Same as what others have said - glad i got to see him play in red and white. He will be a world star for years to come.

It's a shame the rest of the spurs team are showing him up, but this is Bale's level.
