Got us surviving in 15th place with 35 pts. Brom, Stoke and Brighton to go down.

Sportsclubstats have WBA, Stoke and Huddy as the bottom 3 and Saints to finish 14th. Would rip yer arm off for that right now.

Contrast that with the fight that Newcastle put in. Yes they got a bit lucky but they battled for every ball and tried to win the game vs Utd. Our lot threw in the towel at HT.

I reckon he’s going to strip naked in the next presser to reveal a Pompey badge on his left butt cheek. Just a feeling in my water.

Jesus, what the **** are you smoking?

You probably broke your mouse with the intensity of your clicking of "sack".

If Brom beat Chelsea I think I might just lose it completely...

K Billy was about to hit "sack" but Les walked into the room.

The whole culture. We need fit and hungry players vying for spots in the first 11. Fire in their bellies for giving every last bit of energy for the cause. Instead we have a bunch of unfit players coasting and barely worrying about their place in the team or the team's place in the league. Not sure how numbnuts is going to achieve this, if he sincerely believes the guff he spouts in pressers then we are ****ing doomed.

The names of some of the relegation avoiding heroes such as: Magilton, Evans, Dowie, Maddison, Heaney, Ruddock, Monkou etc doesn't exactly read like a Ballon D'or nomination but boy did those guys scrap.

Nope. I said on another thread that the players couldn't give a **** if we go down. The players will get new Prem teams (or abroad).

We are good at letting games just peter out without so much as a whimper. How many times have we been ahead or tied (vs a big team) and watching the last 15+ minutes becomes unbearable because you can see that the other team is really pouring it on, throwing everything but the kitchen sink trying to get a goal? Vs. How many times have we been the team behind or tied (vs a relegation rival) and we just slowly go through the motions until the final whistle, not amping up the tempo one iota?

What I don't get is all these "MP is a yes man, he just does what Les wants so he won't fire him". Why would Les want us to play so **** though? If I was MPs boss I'd be telling him, "find a way to make it work and get us the points we need to survive".

So MP could be giving really good instructions but the players think they know better but lose? If the players are ignoring the instructions because they think they are ****e then they are not doing a very good job of coming up with better tactics.

Pellegrino: “Ok Davo, lead ‘em out”. Davis: “Let's go easy on them, they have Champs League”.

Exactly. Why don’t the players just get in a huddle and say, “**** this, let’s just go for it, ignore the ****”.

- Cedric whips a mean uncontested cross into row 22 of the Chaple. Not seen any other professional footballs achieve such a feat.

Wake up every morning and log on here hoping that I see a thread entitled “Pellegrino sacked!”. It was beggars belief that he survived the Leicester debacle. How he’s still here, months later is a mystery to me. What are they waiting for?

He ain’t anything. The tactics are a shambles. Looks like he has a clipboard with a bunch of generic tactics and he’s crossing them out one by one.

- Rolling out players to say, “we just need to play harder for each other” or some other platitudes. - Killing any momentum we get in a game with slow play - Hand momentum to other teams due to shambolic nervy defending - Every player scores from every shot in training - Smiling and joking in FB training ground videos like we’re on a 5 wins on the bounce run

This. Whenever MoPo, Koeman and to some extent Puel hit rocky patches they fixed the defence first and then added back the goals once we got a bit of stability and momentum. This clown just jabbers on about nothing after each game. He’s not a manager, he doesn’t have the slightest clue what he’s doing.

I’m insane, watching this **** week in week out expecting use to somehow cone out of this 18 month daze that we are in.

When Puel schooled him in his own barn he should have been gone gone gone.

This. Every time we play in it I shudder. To think that poor old Steve Moran is struggling for work while these lazy rich ****s disrespect the kit that he wore with pride. Ugh, I feel sick.

He’s just a **** Dusan Tadic who incidentally has also become a **** Dusan Tadic. *sigh*
