A manager that seems well suited to the club he manages... #portsmyths

 

 

[Jack]

Just watching it back, my god the first half was awful. With that front 4, what the fuck are we doing just pumping it long into the channels? I thought once Will got the creative players he wanted, we’d look to play through the lines? They’ve really let us down here and we didn’t deserve any more than a point.
 

Referee was absolutely atrocious, again. But that’s every week in this league and can’t blame him for the result. We need to improve very quickly

Clearly Fellows was trying to win the ball that he was entitled to go for!

It wasn't even a foul, the Pompey left back dived.

He left the player who was laid out, on the pitch until half time then said he had badly damaged neck. It is a badly worded interview and can only ramp things up next time, perhaps thats what he wants. Not blaming for his keeper going totally AWOL who would have smashed the defender anyway.

At least Dawson had a good time

They know the art of falling over and screaming, the one where Flynn was booked . jumpped in the air and screamed. Time and again they under the slightest of touches went down, and the ref fell for it. All part of the plan to disrupt any flow of the game and of course their 2nd keeper went down and got the trainer on after wehad a bit of momentum

the sooner he gets banned the better IMO. I know some like him but he is out for publicity. I like him less than Westwood FFS

Ah right, they wanted to win also.

as for Fellows… I am sure we would be having a similar view to them if say Murphy was potentially involved with injuring 2 of our players

they were better than us. Swap the managers round, we win that game

it was pathetic from saints (and Still)

Complete and utter over the top bullshit - it wasn't even a foul.

The idiot isn’t even a talented dancer of any sort. It’s like some guy setting up a YouTube channel called, “Mr Soccer Skills,” then unironically uploading a video of himself doing five keepie uppies and sending it to everyone he knows.

P*sses me off how embarrassing he is. Chicken feed for the Skates. The walk out was embarrassing and long enough, but having to watch that whilst waiting was excruciating. 

 

Should be banned for dancing like a muppet (or something like that). 

[Kenilworthy59]

Was I the only one embarrassed by the special Portsmouth themed video shown just before kick-off and the Beattie flag? Its the sort of tin-pot behaviour that we might expect from the Skates and not unlike what happened at Brighton in 2011. The club should be above this sort of thing, especially as the most likely outcome is to wind up the away fans even more.

It was the worst skate away end i think i've ever seen, so many replica shirts and very few lads, also the collective age looked about 13.

Almost no needle from them and they seemed properly meek and wilted really quickly. Also what they did sing was pretty much the league two song book.

Thought the bit of the chapel next to them was decent, not exactly loads of songs but did it''s job and was a good mixture of older and younger lads.

I'm not normally a fan of them but thought the Beattie flag was actually pretty decent, but for the most part you simply don't hear the northam from the other end of the ground so there's nothing for the away fans to bounce off and i assume the same the other way round

I was in Chapel in the block closest to them. First time I've been that end since the creation of the "Northam Wall". On at least 2 occasions you could see literally the whole end - which is what? 8000? -  had hands above their heads clapping in unison which looked impressive, yet from the other end I had no idea what they were singing. Not a criticism of the fans, but we're never going to create an intimdating atmosphere if the layout/architecture of the stadium acoustically stops noise from reaching the other end.
