    PLYMOUTH FALLOUT

    Worst away record in the league, worst defence, all their attackers missing. What could possibly go wrong?

    JDS is a very good footballer but is exposed by his height. Looked great against small wingers until the opposition bring on a tall right sided player. JDS has been culpable for a lot of our goals conceded this year but so has MVE and every other goalkeeper, defender and midfielder including...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Plymouth Argyle Match Thread - Thursday 26th Dec

    I said we had to be on it at Portsmouth and we weren't. Tactically out thought in the second half adapting to the conditions. Playing around at the back with terrible conditions was stupid. We are better than Plymouth. If we don't match their endeavour, we will struggle. Win the battle first...

    King said it. It must be true.

    Transfer Rumour January transfer window

    MVE needs to get his form back to confirm this. He has been terrible and culpable for loads of crucial goals so far this season. His crossing has been pants as well.

    Waiting for the Dust to settle…

    I look at Robins recruitment when he was apparently totally in charge. A mixture of old heads, experienced players, some young potential and hit and miss loans. With his backroom staff he built several really successful teams for the division we were/are in. If you look at Robins statements and...

    What on earth happened?

    Interestingly, Slot at Liverpool said you can judge a manager on 18 games.

    The Barnsley crew

    We have had a lot of bad boys over the years. There was a goal keeper who did the offie at the bottom of our road. May have been Arthur Lightning but don't want to besmirch his good name if it was someone else. Ian Gibson, Noel Whelan and David Speedie were a bit of a management nightmare. Cyril...

    It’s a new day it’s a new dawn

    Lawrence was here for two seasons and was third in charge. Clough still won cups and got to other finals and high positions in the league, although his best days were with Taylor. Sillett was less good without Curtis who most people at the club at the time recognised was the main driving force...

    Season over already?

    Unless we can put together a cup run which at the moment seems unlikely. Sheff Wed (who have a really top manager) are playing so well, so we look royally screwed. The players on paper are ok but the form and desire seems to be lacking.

    Songs We No Longer Sing

    I remember when we used to sing going down, going down, going down, and the opposition used to sing, So are you, so are you, so are you. I worry that one may be making a comeback.

    The new signings so far

    Don't know who is to blame but the players really did not show the right mentality especially in the second half. Blaming each other at times instead of geeing each other up. Where was the player to get hold of the ball and change the game, to alter the dynamic on the pitch. Appears we don't...

    Match Thread Portsmouth FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 21st Dec

    We did not adapt to the conditions in the second half. It suited their game perfectly but that should not be an excuse. Still trying to play out from the back when it was so difficult to control the ball. Charged down all the time. Eccles seems lost since he has been dropped. MVE at fault for...

    Confidence will be shot after that. MVE screwed up as well for the first Portsmouth goal. If he had cleared, it may have been a different game. JDS exposed him for second goal. The goal from the corner was him. Don't think he will play the next game.

    Loved the 3-3 match although I never went. Would have loved to reread the social media throughout the game for that one.

    FA cup 3rd round. Thirteen quid. Not bad.

    That said love it there. Spent more time in Berlin than any other European city apart from London.
