Things like this goes to show that it’s not all terrible. We are in a bit of a false position but we really need to get some players in this window to end the season on a high and build towards 25/26. 44 points would have us 5th so if we can hit some form and achieve our ‘expected’ points in...

Sure about that? Nearly gave Cardiff the win on Wednesday and made a pretty big cock up against WBA. I’m not convinced by him as a CB in a back 4.

I wouldn’t mind if Lati had a suitor, especially if it it allowed us to bring in an experienced CB.

We have 4 CMs to fill 2 spaces… Allen is not up to standard either. Counting Andrews toward the headcount is just silly. We play with an AM and there’s no cover for Rudoni.

I went to the game but couldn’t stay out for the drinking unfortunately! 100% I was sat away from my group and the scenes was still just something you couldn’t explain to someone not there. Trying to describe it to the Mrs had her looking at me like a crazy person. I still watch Ally...

We’re not going to sell MVE this window. It makes zero sense for everyone involved. His agent has quashed the Galatasary talk. He needs competition and/or cover because he’s played close to 100% of the minutes this season.

Rooney can only speak for himself, but an educated guess is that he just has a desire to test him himself in a sport that he loves. Frank Lampard was on the ‘Diary of a CEO’ podcast where he more or less said he doesn’t need the money of coaching, he just enjoys it and sees it as another way to...

Yesterday was cold, miserable and train cancellations put a bit of a downer on it a bit but I enjoyed my ‘posh away day’ with the other half. It’s not all about the result, Pompey away has actually been my favourite away day this season despite leaving early at 4-1.

No, I’m sure MR is well over it now. He strikes me as a stoic person. He got a nice severance package with his reputation intact because My Stoke supporting mate is over the moon with appointing Robins but even he heard about the MR and AV situation somehow.

Well, I do it because I enjoy following my team but won’t delude myself into thinking we’ve been playing mesmerising stuff… Some of the away days the highlight has been the travelling itself and spending time with friends. To state the obvious, it’s far more enjoyable watching your team win.

100%. He’s been pretty ineffectual in most the games he’s started barring Sheff U and Pompey. He presses off the ball, gets fans excited he’ll close down the GK or CB, that’s about it. Bassette will develop but relying on him for as many minutes as we have been is misguided imo. Simms and BTA...

I was talking about the squad. The players haven’t become shit overnight. The football has been pretty boring at times and leaves me questioning my life choices of why I’m in ‘x’ arse end of the country watching us get beat.

The only thing that’s really changed is our defence and the only thing that’s changed personnel-wise is McFadz. That’s when our defending started to really deteriorate. Had we signed Joe Worrall, that could’ve been one signing that is game changing. We’ve dismantled the leadership that was...

How did you read what I posted and thought that’s what I was saying?

It’s the same ‘dross’ that got us 9th last season and to the semi final. It’s been shit season but to turn around and call the same bunch of players that did ever so well last season is just an emotive knee-jerk response. Like many, supporting Cov home and away is one of my most expensive...

This is classic football fan mentality of chucking the baby out with the bath water. It really isn’t all a disaster, you add a quality body in midfield and defence… we’ll be fine. The same team managed to finish 9th last season and that was with a poor finish. Our forward options are looking...

The team is just underperforming, it’s not a bad team. It should competing for the playoffs, there is a need to freshen things up in defence and midfield and we should be good to go.

Forward wise, we definitely have a top 6 deck. The defence, however, is no where near and in midfield the mix isn’t quite what we need. 1-2 players in the Hamer profile would lift us up really well.

Not the first time when Wilson came in for Dovin v Leeds. The second time v Sunderland was because of the ‘freak incident’.

That was because he got injured rather than for poor form. AV probably pushed hard for that transfer because AV was ‘like a father figure’ for Collins, in his own words in his Chelsea days. Probably the same for Da Silva and Palmer but that’s conjecture.
