Other than Norwich in the cup we’ve looked a bit shite in every game this season. Struggling to see any semblance of an identity, or green shoots of a team that’s about to rip up the league. He had a month longer of a preseason than Russ did, yet we look so toothless and are already off the pace compared to 2023/24. Reminds me of watching the Nathan Jones side. i hope i’m wrong and get served a huge slice of humble pie but it just feels like another Sports Republic masterstroke.

Fuck me that’s embarrassing. How did this bloke end up becoming our Westwood.

What a shite game, will still looking more and more the typical SR appointment each game

Still been completely out thought today. New formation and faces required second half

Some atmosphere pre match, saw these in the bogs, brilliant.

Mums just text me to say she can hear us from midanbury. Buzzing for this

The forecast has shifted a long way over the past few days, it was looking like torrential rain and 40mph wind all morning and during the game at one point. With regards to the bubble, I could see an argument that if we end up playing each other more regularly we potentially drop it. The big gaps between our matches seems to make things a bit spicier, perhaps that’s how other clubs manage to get away with no bubble.

Aging like milk this.

I questioned his appointment in the Championship thread and someone told me he got the job because he was a good manager 🤷🏻‍♂️ . He’ll be gone by Monday and someone will still take him on despite an awful managerial career thus far.

Indeed, he’d have been gone in seconds judging by that footage.

Indeed, he’ll no doubt grow up to be a gobby little skate twat anyway judging by the company he keeps. ”Ding dong ding dong, where’s your wig gone”

Wanker Lowe back in the day said to extend it would cost the same as it did to build it in the first place, and that’s the best part of 25 years ago so prices would be even more now. Realistically they’d put an extra stand on the kingsland and incorporate boxes to take the capacity to 40k, but it’d cost what £30-40 million? How long would that take to claw back?

Good lads, hopefully it ends up on a bonfire.

I remember Fratton away in 04 getting pelted with hailstones in their excuse for an away end. That 1-0 win was the springboard for their survival, if Kevin Philips scissor kick had been an inch to the right it’d have gone in off the post and we’d have got a 1-1 draw, likely sending them down. Being held back over an hour whilst the idiots smashed up their own city was fun.

What fucks me off the most about that game was the week before they’d been banned from playing certain players unless the could prove or guarantee the players would get paid that month, as we know they lied and the likes of O’hara would play and score, and then dirty cunts would go on about doing us 4-1 at home until 2019. Of course the players wages were delayed that month surprise surprise. The reality is we had them on the ropes for the majority of that game, and had they been restricted in who they could play we could well of ran out as winners. That celebration when Lambert scored was something else, I think only the Crouch last minute penalty sticks in my mind as much.

I’d love to know who the other interested parties were that he turned down in favour of bringing SR on board. Never forget him complaining about giving up his weekends to watch Saints, all whilst coining a 6 figure salary the wanker.

Ticket exchange has finally opened properly today for the Pompey game for those that haven’t got one yet.

I’m hoping it works the opposite way to be fair, that win at all costs attitude on derby day can bring an added pressure with it, I’m hoping the new boys are more focused on impressing the manager and the skates suffer as a result.

Cap’n Jack has been around long enough to make the squad aware how important this game is to everyone connected to the club. This is actually the one game I won’t mind seeing his name in the starting XI, he’ll play with his heart on his sleeve, and hopefully if he does get a red card for snapping one of them in half he does it in the 90th minute of a 4-0 home win.

Impossible to really give it more than 6/10 considering we’ve lost Ramsdale and Baz is back to being first choice GK, Quarshie has the ability to look decent and shite at the same time so JS is still playing every game, and we haven’t bought in a convincing striker, just a young lad that seems like the second coming of Sekou Mara.

Bit hard when they’ve spent the majority of that in the leagues below us tbf

Because unlike Baz, Ramsdale kept us either in games, or kept the score from being an embarrassment. With Baz there’s no credit in his favour to deflect from the questions about his ability.

I’ve said the same previously. The fact we have to have the debate every match just shows he’s not good enough. Somehow the powers that be can’t see what we all do though.
