Mayuka was appallingly bad, we've done the hard work bedding Jay in, and just when he is starting to look good we drop him to the bench. Square pegs and round holes didn't work again today trying to cover Lallana's absence. Give Reeves a go. Too many players were off their games today.

And we got massive service out of him, good shout.

That's taking the open interpretation a little too far. Players only.

My Grandad drunk every day, 6 pints and a bottle of whiskey, and chain smoked. Didn't do him any harm. He led a very full life in his 25 years. ............I'll get my coat.

And he's 35.

I'd be very happy with Phillips.

Make your judgement based on whatever you want. Personally, I'll go for quality and influence to the club.

Hence why he wants to go to a side where he'll get a regular game as a centre-forward. Not sure it's all about money.

At least we can do something about it in the window.

Lambert, Shilton, Nicholl, Golac, Armstrong, Keegan (best player in Europe at the time, imagine us signing Messi now), Alan Ball. Really hard to pick one, but I'll go for Shilton. Probably the best keeper in the world at the time, we got decent service from him, and we qualified for Europe every season. I was a keeper myself, so I'm a bit biased.

Plenty of candidates, who do you reckon.

I have to say that seems to be spot on, despite the 'info' I was getting earlier in the season about problems in the dressing room, that would appear to be bullsh*t.

If any player crosses Ferguson they get disciplined, all behind closed doors. If they become a problem he moves them on, no matter how good they are. I don't think his methods have changed that much over the years, and is exactly how problems should be sorted.

Wouldn't bother me if we had Reeves and Shaw down the left. Reeves looked mustard for the U21s the other night. Lee would be ok as well. So would Gaston, with Jay up front with Lambert. Good that we've got options. It would be great if another young player made his mark.

Even with a fully fit squad, I would keep him until the end of the season. He's been one of our best players. Lallana's injury makes it even more of a no no to sell him in January.

F*ck off. I'll proudly be wearing a jumper with Rudolph the red nosed reindeer, both at the game and in town afterwards. I reckon I'll be a massive hit with the ladies.

I hate the way it's seen as acceptable these days. The referees and authorities are failing in their duty to the game.

I believe he should be banned for 1 match, against us. Seems very fair and reasonable.

The members voted 9 to 1 in favour of action in a democratic ballot. Unions aren't allowed to hold strikes without them.

Was talking to a Pompey supporting solicitor yesterday who is absolutely convinced they'll be gone before the new year. This could be the best Christmas ever.

Do people actually get paid to prove/disprove this twaddle?

Dear mr judge, any chance of stringing this out for another 28 days, so I can afford to buy my son the GI Joe with the Kung Fu grip for Christmas. Love Trevor

I disagree, we're short of quality competition for the wide positions, and Lallana's untimely injury merely highlights that.

Ramirez on the left with Ricky and Jay up front, or Puncheon on the left, Guly/Chaplow on the right with Ramirez and Lambert up front. Come Jan 1st, just a straight swap, Lallana for Phillips.

I reckon that fans who sing probably are predominantly working class. However, that doesn't make fans who don't sing 'plastic', just a bit more reserved.
