Personally I cant feel guilt about the event that happened. Yet another of the of Britains of our past who I grew up being taught at school about is now being piloried. Nodoubt there will be lawyers looking to get compensation. Perhaps the ancestors of the Boyd should go and look for apologies?

I just watched the one that hit the post. For a moment I thought I had Frazer Forster in goal that night lol. Still brings back good memories with some smashing lads

Just going through some old posts looking for something and came across this thread. I wonder where all these people are now, as I rarely see them post

well they are not going to do anything to help us as they dont want other nations to leave as well. I dont blame them wanting to do the best deal for their club, as I would do the same. They are just fortunate they are negotiating with a splintered nation. Had our political elite stuck together and done the right thing for our nation our deal would have been better for all.

I don’t know why somebody hasn’t done a football version ‘of the saints are coming’ (Skids)

I don’t get that as surely the border will be in place if we don’t do a deal, and so surely they should be campaigning to get a deal done without the backstop. If we leave, the EU will be forced to put up borders, would we not be able to say we aren’t going to put one up and so the EU/Irish have to do the border and they are the ones making the move not us

if that is the case then the opposition parties should vote for an election as the majority will obviously vote them in

If you have ever watched Inbetweeners you will see a similarity to Simon, a right weak minded fool, you have him there presenting a Pompey show. As for the car journey at the start, pleeeeease

Unless you have the same people in the same areas at each game sometimes the singers get mixed with the less vocal. Im sure the volume will be the same to fans at other parts of the ground and its only perception that there is no atmosphere in our end. Our fans are as good as any and it is annoying that we are even having this conversation. They always can be heard at games and it is pretty insulting to our travelling support tht such things are said.

Well I suppose we all have eyes on managers who we would like who we had not a cat in hells chance of getting. Personally I believe he has shown he is a good manager and if we had snared him it would have been a coup, not that I particularly like his morals but he may have done well.

would he have left Celtic to join us? I suspect that he saw owners at Leicester who would spend money and the squad was better than ours. Why join us with a mundane squad and owners who nobody really knows their motives

perhaps the piped atmosphere was not switched on

I doubt many other PL fans would want any of our players in their team apart from Redmond. We have little real quality. Personally after watching the 90 minutes on game of the day on Sky that we were pretty decent but unfortunate that Kane decided to have his best game of the season and we have little cutting edge at the centre of the attack

good post Heisenberg. Football fans in the main are so fickle and knee jerk. That’s social media for you.

Let’s get rid of him, we haven’t had a new manager for at least a year. It’s so boring not having the excitement of having another new face.

I think it was a case of after the Lord Mayors show.

20 seconds lol

Oh I see, I think in the present time it may be seen as some as racist but I must say Im really confused what is and isnt

at least your mates you picked up would have had a phone and had the pics of youat FP. Cant wait to see them. I was in the Fratton end and stood with Westwood and his mates while singing OWTS. Unfortunately I left my phone at home and also the other 10 with me forgot theirs as well, who'd have thought it eh Oh and we couldn't of ad a harder draw. Cant see us getting through.

A Mr T outfit is obviously worn in tribute as a fancy dress, wheras KK are a political and racist group and so totally different. If Wes decides to wear a fairy outfit does that make him offensive to fairies? Personally I m not into fancy dress but some people find it hilarious. I have seen groups dressed in many outfits be it 1970's disco dancers/groups to Trump, does that offend??

I assume in these days of PC there will be calls for the Womans results to be put above the mens game. Perhaps in time it will get like the Yellow Pages and in time it will be Aarvark womens Premier league as to make alphabetical order sorted.

John Barnes who is a major voice about racism in football was not offended at all, and gave a good defence against a couple of radio presenters who were up in arms about it

its all brinkmanship, sadly they know how to negotiate and its like taking candy from a kid dealing with us.

You are falling for the thing that you are telling others they are falling for. This hedge fund stuff is and has always been going on and some are betting on one side and others the other. It is not one way. It is just another bit of the scare tactics and misinformation used by both sides. For all of our good we need a quick resolution and No deal, whilst the trouble that will cause is not ideal, it will focus minds very quickly on all sides. The country is bleeding to death and while many on here may not see it in their lives YET the economy is starting to really stall. Iam hearing form many different trades how slow things are getting and soon the job losses and businesses closures will start to snowball. Therefore we haven't time to fanny around waiting for MP's who really are not in the real world to decide our fate. Not making a decision either way is a disaster and personally if we revoke or go for no deal I would be fine as then we can get on with it. In limbo like we are at present is sending us into a downward spiral. If Boris said we would hold the no deal decision until after an election, which would give the people the chance to vote in an election we would see then what way to go forward. Personally at present I think the Tories would get a decent majority as the man in the street it seems to me wants this nightmare to end so we can try and move on.

it did work for them as it kept the fans going on their monotonous chant. Of course Dsiney always amplify stuff and know that the background atmosphere is important, it would also enhance their fans for the TV audience. I recall them saying to us we did the same in the past, strange, it must be common to do such things. At Bournemouth they just use a feed of a pin drop
