I agree Jan is not the man for the job. If RL acts decisivily in the next week or so, any new man has more than enough time to get us out of the mire.If he appoints a backroom replacement then that is foolish. Again i dont know what the club can afford at the present.

I dont know who would be better. I still stand by the fact that RL's main objective is to stave off administration. He saw a way of doing so and implimenting them. I have always been doubtful about Jan but tried to give him a chance. I have given him until christmas and now believe he is not up to it.Rupert Lowe it is time to act.

I do hope you dont mean me Ump as I have no contact with any of them, thankfully. Im still smiling from your posts last night, they really did cheer me up and brought me out of my bad mood before i went out with friends.

I think the major thing I dont agree with on DW's post was that the board got us relegated. They were a part not the whole. We had so many reasons, and we were relegatred by the fact we didnt score 1 more goal home or away at WBA. The margin was so small. Everton and Arsenal (Wigan and Hull in recent history) are the only teams never to be relegated, it happens. It was probably the worst period in football history to be relegated when we did, but there are many factors for have been so.

for me I dont point the finger at one person and think if he goes all is then hunky dory. It would gall me to see RL go and then know that the rest of the crew who hide in the shadows are stil there enjoying their perks and privilages. I cant see that any of them deserve to be there and the lot without exception should go (although i do believe LC is the closest to the others to put his money where he mouth is). The last lot lost the biggest opportunity in the clubs history and so they should hang their heads in shame. The only clever thing they did was to muddy the waters so the fans didnt really fully believe that there was PA around. I would point to who did say he was Lc and a highly respected journalist put his reputation on the line. I know many will scoff but that serves the old board well that fans do.

thanks for that OSM, your ramblings make Cantona seem coherent.

RL has to act and remove Jan from his job as manager. I dont like to keep changing managers but RL made a misjudgement in appointng him as he does not have the tactical knowhow or the ability to inspire the team. To be fair to the players I cant understand a lot he says during his interviews and so how can those lads understand a lot what he wants from them.

H e is out of his depth and as much as i dislike constant change he needs to be replaced.I was thinking as much as people dont like Billy Davies the refs wouldnt get away with their inept performances. Our players dont argue just give the ref aqn easy ride , much like a load of schoolboys would

He s not my chosen manager

Um I know you didnt mean too, but in this evening where Im really narked this post really made me smile. Thanks Ump I am feeling a lot better.I can feel the passion and if you and me were on the pitch those lads would be working al ot harder as in our own ways we'd motivate them that they would nt dare not lose.

I dont agree with this in chapter in verse but so much is correct.

you could add many others to that list.He still is being asked to play up front alone and as we are not scorting goals he is shopuldering the blame.We did not create much for him to latchj on to.

But the arguement was not about transfer fees being taken it was about Pompey were going to lose their major players and being a player who commands massive wages and a internationally recognised player , he is a major player.Merovian has made the statement I took him up on his bet and then he qualified it by cutting out a couple of their main men.

as a supporter of the idea of utilising the youth it saddens me, but Jan is not up to it.

So i should not defend what is wrong IMO then? DMG is being asked to play as a lone striker, it is ridiculous and he is suffering for it.You mix up his demeanour with lack of ambition or desire, it is nonsensicle.

Well you have been proved wrong as he hasn't

Oh so its ok to boo the players? i boo the fans who booed DMG. It was not the majority.I found it interesting that we had a return of a lot of fans today and the crowd was less supportive.The hardcore have been fantastic this season turning up week in week out, and have got behind them. Weget the return of many part time ones and the mood was far from supportive. If you wish to boo DMG be consistant and boo Lallana who couldnt take a corner or Surman who didnt make a mark, or Pearce who made a horrific mistake. We are not in a position to be able to crush one of our players confidence so he is unable to play. I was/am as angry as anyone on here but i dont let it be to the detriment of the clubs health.

No doubt RL would have liked that (5-0)the same as me, unlike some who have pleasure posting after a depressing defeat.

No I am in a foul mood.

I liked seeing the ground 3quarters full today but then when i saw how the team were not supported like they have been recently i realised that it might be better to only have 14k crowds. It was shameful how the fans booed him.How about Lallana, he did sfa but is immune to the criticism.It is clear the abuse is getting to DMG and his confidence is shot. The lad is expected to play up front on his own against 3 defenders who were more experienced.

what a surprise people wanting to dance on our grave. For fans stuck in Austria it wouldnt effect you like the ones who turn up every week. Administration is something that the club would never easily recover from and its madness to think we could start next season on minus 10 and not get relegated again as the club and fans do not have the stomach for it.

I thought it said British Rockery. Now we'd be leaders in making one of those

it depends on whose figures you go by. The press or the ever reliable sources of Corp!!!

A man of conviction then. So Sol is not a big player. LOL.

In my opinion a 'big player' is one who is on massive wages and recognised international name.Sol is a guarenteed starter and a lynchpin of the defence as is James who is Englands no1 keeper... Lets see how many leave and then we can go for the nitty gritty.
