Nurse, get the special jacket...

Tories just need to offload Philp, Holden and one or two other lunatics and they'll look normal again.

Jenrick might bring in support, unlike Suella who has probably knocked a few thousand off the Reform fanbase - seeing her circus act yesterday reminded me of those Boris cabinet yes-men and women who would spout literally any old lies, just to harvest votes from the thick. The Conservative party looks less hateful and more palatable than it did yesterday morning.

Fareham and Waterlooville voters overwhelmingly rejected Reform in the election. Surely in no sensible world can it be right that the seat now belongs to the party that came 4th, this goes against the express wishes of the electorate. By-election time?

Is it fair to say that all the pre-match pompey hype about how our players would freeze, petrified in the pressure cauldron of world-beating Fortress Fratton was the opposite of what happened? Several players who haven't landed a proper tackle in months found the beast within - rather than intimidating, all the spitting and abuse just fired them up so we showed way more commitment than we have in some recent sorry defeats. My fear was a pathetic no-show, it was nice to see some fight.

From where we were a few weeks ago I'll have your arm off for 1-1. But, it should have been better, as should this whole squad. Putting a positive spin on it, they blew their best two chances of beating us in years.

His only role is to give his financial backers power in the UK, he delivered that through Brexit, his sponsors made an absolute killing, now his job is to let Putin and Trump pull strings in the UK. If that is delivered, Nige can then take a back seat, because he has zero interest and no plan for running anything. He's just pulling another scam on thick people - and if they don't like being called thick, it's their own fault for being conned so fucking easily. The same folk are sending money off to Nigerian Princes and giving the nice man from Microsoft control of their internet banking.

How anyone in the UK can still defend Trump after he directly slagged off our Afghan veterans and also said we'd all be talking German if it wasn't for the US, is beyond me. He's got a history of insulting the armed forces despite the fact that he hid when his draft letter came, you'd have to be a fucking moron to support him. There goes my US visa.

IF he does play three centre backs they'd better get up the other end and score from every fucking corner.

Any serious protest needs the players to join in. Perhaps they could start a go-slow, just pass the ball around without any direction? Swap numerous pointless one-twos in their own half, stand about a lot at corners just watching? Fans have little power but if the players could manage to give the impression they don't care, the owners would have to take some action.

Backwards, casual, ineffective, uninspiring - none of which we need right now.

And that halftime competition was as crap as the fucking game. Bring back kids falling over.

Wasn't that by The Knack?

If this team plays like that at Fratton Park they will write themselves into history - and not in a good way. Pathetic.

I have a worrying scenario looming on a distant horizon... If mad hatemonger Suella doesn't jump ship in the next year or two and Lib Dem or Labour refuse to agree to stand down in her constituency, I may have to vote Braverman just to keep an even madder Remain candidate out. It'll be like choosing a sandwich filler from a menu of different coloured steaming dogshits.

Badenoch has finally managed to flush a stubborn turd and Bob is off to a reunion for the Dishonourable Order of Fuckwits. At Reform, their average IQ level drops another couple of points.

Boris never did a U-turn! If he set his heart on appointing a corrupt moron or a friend with no experience into a key role, or he just wanted to line his own pockets with tax payers' cash while holding secret meetings with Russia, he always delivered. He might have been responsible for thousands of Covid deaths and the loss of billions of pounds and our reputation on the international stage, but he was decisive! ✊

The occasional U-turn with a policy that proves unworkable when it leaves the drawing board is acceptable, but this is happening too often. Keep the crazy ideas behind closed doors, only launch the sensible ones.

Stephen Graham every time - from This is England onwards.

Some do, but many clearly haven't.

Plucky pompey, proud of the lads, wanted it more, battling performance, Premier League leaders given a real test, best atmosphere in world football, magic of the cup, Arsenal scared by the occasion, pride intact, fortess fratton etc ad nauseum. Otherwise known as a heavy home defeat with chaotic defending and a midget banging in headers at will.

That's clearly a murder.

Don't forget that he's making a fortune manipulating markets right now as well. Every time he announces an invasion or threat, arms-related shares rocket - and he is the guy who can perfectly time buying and selling. Farage did the same with his little banking crisis - buy now, make your announcement, cash-in tomorrow.

Indeed, stats show that only 18% of road deaths are caused by drunks, leaving dangerously sober people responsible for 82%. The only logical way to get road deaths down is for more people to drive drunk.

The only positive vibes should be aimed at those who travelled to support, pie or no pie. Respect to them, and them only.
