I’m thinking that this may free up O’Hare to play out wide without weakening us in the middle.

You mean apart from Liam Kelly?

No. No we don’t.

Good thing Johnson has just announced a £14bn boost to education funding then. Wait a minute, where’s that coming from?

Just thinking out loud, with Dabo’s booking on Tuesday does that mean he’s suspended for Saturday’s game? Or is it only bookings in the league?

Seems so.

Source? Don’t see why we’d be signing a left back even if Mason was leaving, Robins evidently really likes McCallum.

Rather vulgar but funny nonetheless.

Looking at Ashton Gate, they completely revamped the pitch in the summer of 2017. This went on from June until August. Wasps got a concert and the monster trucks in over the summer. That somewhat explains the poor state of the pitch.

Definite yellow, but I take your point on the Pompey players harassing the ref.

That PT he had over the summer certainly paid off.

I’d agree with all 4 yellows. Find it strange that the extended highlights didn’t show the disallowed goal.

We signed him on a 2 year deal though we seem to have put an optional year in a lot of contracts recently so who knows.

Thinking about it, are we absolutely sure we didn’t win 3-1? After all, only Clive has seen evidence of Pompey’s 2nd and 3rd and we know what he’s like.

Said the other day that my fear was the midfield would be running on fumes. Westbrooke and Shipley playing 5 games in 2 and a half weeks or whatever isn’t really sustainable when one has known stamina issues and the other is having his first proper run in the first team. Sooner Allen is back...

Well it couldn’t be anyone could it. I don’t recall Messi, Hazard or Des Lynam being on loan at a level below last season.

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think our openers are anywhere near up to standard. Burns has scored some runs to give him credit, and he is a proper test-style player but he strikes me as lucky with the amount of times his bat is beaten. I just don’t see what the need is to move Root from 4 when...

In fairness, Ponticelli was doing that 2 years ago.

But in the current scenario he may as well open. The ideal is that the openers see out at least the first 10-15 overs and see the ball wear a bit and then Root can do his thing. I mean, Smith bats at 4 for Aus so why the pressure to move Root up?

Sibley makes his selection difficult off the back of a duck and the Bears’ CC game finishing the day before the next test, but he seems the obvious long-term choice. Even taking out his 244 earlier in the season he is averaging 46 and sometimes CC players just take to test cricket. Really stuck...
