it must be the first one as the second theory falls on its face as you put put 'mate' and so that is just too far fetched

the goals were ok , but the managers interviews were quality....well mine was Lol

is that in gifting goals? I look forward to seeing your performance next year.

perhaps he's been there that long because nobody else wanted him. Useful though as he could do the books massages and manage, are you sure it is not Dubai Phil as he did all that before the forum match

that's a tad unfair. Get your gloves on and let the world make their assessment of your capabilities. We all think we are good in our minds eye, when you actually watch it Lol

that is quite a surprise as i had been informed he was part of the reason AP left. Just shows you don't know who to believe.

I have pointed to the fans expectations being a pressure for months now. Last season it was enjoyable as the fans were all behind the team on matchdays. This season there has been a seed change after AP said there were going to be no excuses and we were going for the title. A foolish raising of our hopes and adding extra burden on the team. Saturday night felt like the bad old days, a feeling I thougth had gone for a few years.

sadly the toaster has packed up and the bread will come out fresh and untouched. I might put some money on them going up. if they really were thinking of paying £1m for a player they must be considering going for it.

Poor old Arizona, he was like the geeky kid in the playground not knowing where to stand before kick off. lol I just happened to point that out to the ref and he took a bit of um bridge. My team had run rings around the away side so much it is understandable that they didn't know where they were. The biggest surprise was that Phil actually got the refs permission to bring a sub on!!!

the fans patience will be thin if we get a manager who doesn't make us sit up. A 'name' will get more time than an Adkins of the world. IMO there is a good chance that we wont go up this season, as the fans will be very edgy unless we start to look like a proper team. That will in turn cause its own pressures. If this goes wrong and the fans turn, NC will walk and the family may lose interest.NC may have faced pressure in business but it is nothing like the stuff football fans can administor. The saga is starting up again. Of course if we get an appointment that can satisfy the majority things could be more positive, but i suggest Adkins will not be that person. I will support who comes in but I dont see the players or fans getting anything from an appointment like him/Brown?Hart etc

charming, at least the bit of your attempt of cheating by kicking off in our half is shown. It also shows some ediiting was done as one minute granty is limping down the touchline and then the next he is waiting for the kick off. I think the game was summed up perfectly by my interview.

for me too much of a Pompey connection

As i have replied above he has stayed loyal after other clubs have called. Financial constraints wil hamper him longterm and the club accept he cannot hold himself back forever

He has turned down opportunities to leave already. He was a good servant to B'mouth as a player. I suspect he knows what an opportunity the Saints job is and it could be a long time until another like it came along. If he was very successful (in fact if any manager is) I doubt they will stay like TB did. He would accept there is only so far he can take the Cherries.

sadly that is true and should be an important factor in the clubs decision. To me that is why Eddie Howe should get the job.He is loyal and would stay for the long run

Are you sure? he didn't say she was of poor eyesight

I agree you can't beat Fry's stuff. The rubbish covered in icing sugar is horrible.

No it is a tandem, Phil does all the peddling while I sit looking pretty

nobody expects that

Easy, Id have you cemented on your knees doggy style and then park my bike at your rear. You see OSM i am very easy to please and always have a solution to any problem.

true, especially as there is a charge nowadays. He still walked out on us after his Echo piece saying 'buy your season ticket, im definitely staying' Lol

they probably misheard and it was a Folk Singer

the blind cheek of it. Making out that they are treated badly!!!! Lawrence didn't want to join and im sure hasn't changed his m,ind yet

You are right I have gone undercover, luckily i dont't think any of the other posters have picked me yet under my new guise. Well Adkins is hardly a spring chicken....well he doesn't look that young. How close is West Hill to you, I have a new customer who lives there. i was going to say did he know you but i didn't want to torpedo the deal .Lol

if you want passion and motivation , it would have to be me. Tic-tacs down to Dubai Phil
