Ooops. Their best player last season, Paul Robinson, leaves the club before the start of the season http://www.portsmouth.co.uk/sport/pompey/paul-robinson-makes-shock-pompey-departure-1-6880927 And on POL they're not happy... But the hero to villain swingometer has swung in the opposite direction, as our old friend Banker aka Corporate Ho demonstrates

I remember the pressers with Adkins would go for 30-45 minutes. The ones with Pochettino took longer too but that was also due to the fact that he had an interpretor. But you're right, these days they're not as long as they once were.

I saw on facebook a story that John PFC Westwood a.k.a. the bestest of the bestest, has had his bell stolen. Anyone on here know if there is any truth to this?

I'd keep him on ignore if I were you

Can any of our resident Dutchies give us the lowdown on Vitesse, their expected lineup, key players, weaknesses etc.

Referee on Thursday is Jesús Gil Manzano from Spain

UEFA website has the kick off time for the home leg being at 8.05pm UK time http://www.uefa.com/uefaeuropaleague/season=2016/matches/day=-4/index.html Haven't seen it confirmed anywhere else yet though, so don't know how accurate that is, especially as they think we play at the Friends Provident St. Mary stadium

A thread from POL And some responses... My favourite comment is this one

Only on SaintsWeb could the bed wetters come out in force over the release of squad numbers

It'd be nice if you actually copied the quote instead of just posting a link

Looks like it's promotion or bust considering the outlay on a new manager and new signings. It really would be awful for them to fail...

The plucky heroes battled hard to score an 89th minute winner against Gosport, who clearly were no match for their more illustrious opponents. The new players seem to be coping well with living up to the legacy of the two-time English league champions

How many tickets do we have to give to Vitesse for the leg at SMS? I imagine they would take a sizeable contingent of supporters like we will over there.

Wasn't Domenech the coach in South Africa when France had a massive meltdown and went on strike?

Working stream

Unnecessary attempt to bash MLG, I thought it was an interesting statistic. Let's be proud of our excellent defensive record and overall superb season instead of pointlessly having a go at one another.

David James. Hilarious stuff watching at home

From POL Here's who Banker AKA Corp Ho wants Meanwhile, seems like the blue few want to give us some lessons about finances...

He wrote this beauty back in July http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/28593032

Can't believe how many people would drop Pellè. Had it not been for a stunning stop by Howard, he would have scored and everyone would be raving about him. As it so happens, in my opinion he had a decent first half and was a bit isolated in the second against Everton. Despite the fact that most posters don't rate him on here, he's good enough to start for Italy (let's not forget he did actually score too!). We will win this game easily.

6/10 WUM effort. I honestly can't believe someone would be that deluded to actually have that opinion.

http://www.sport.es/es/noticias/barca/barcelona-quiere-fichar-altura-4059709 Article is in Spanish, but the jist of the article is that Barcelona want to sign a tall striker, and Pelle is mentioned as one of the options Barcelona are looking at. If they do sign a tall striker than Dzeko or Llorente seem the most likely options but in the event they DO bid for Pelle, how much is he worth?

That'll be the same Rooney, Welbeck and Sterling who scored 3 of our 4 goals Moronic post.
