    Should have asked the coppers to arrange a breath test! Sounds all a bit excessive to me. How old is your grandson? Shame common sense seems to be lost on some now a days!

    Conor Chaplin - Signing Confirmed (Finally!)

    He can hardly say he hasn’t been backed!?! This squad is his. Bar the academy products, who have all signed new contracts under him so are also effectively his signings, he’s spent on wages and players - if he was to have a grumble at anyone it would have to be the recruitment guys, who I don’t...

    5 changes. No wonder we haven’t a side who have gelled! I get that any of them from midweek could have lost their place today but it still seems a lot! However if this eleven go on to win the game, it’ll be a master stroke, Atleast until our next fixture when we see more changes ;)

    Is L1 too big a jump?

    I’m not sure it’s too big a step, and don’t really have much to evidence either side of the argument. The squad last year were a squad. It was built around a group of blokes who knew each other’s game. A group of blokes who clearly gelled on and off the pitch. How many minutes have the players...

    JP heading out on loan

    Maybe that was his intention; start a bidding war with his ex employer and make out he rated Bakayoko when really he didn’t have any interest what so ever. Clever guy ;)

    JP heading out on loan

    Wow there’s some drab mentioned in that thread! Had managed to forget a fair few of them too, Ok, A couple :)

    JP heading out on loan

    Completely agree. Especially since he's with us for at least 5 years. Would be a complete waste if he wasn't used at all by anyone and would certainly impact his development in the game. It is a short enough career as it is

    JP heading out on loan

    Surely we need all hands on deck when it comes to players playing up front right now, unless we have someone lined up? Or will we do another ‘mcdonald’ and let one player go without replacing them first? As frustrating as it must be Chaplin, Pompey might be right in not letting him go before...

    Reckon Burge will be back in, whether or not I agree with that is another matter, but O’Brien really doesn’t seem to have done himself many favours. I’d like to see Grimmer back but seems Sterling is preferred. Although since we lack wide players could he not play in front of Grimmer? Was that...

    When did they close their comments section down? Finally notice that not many comments were positive nor productive? :)

    Gutted for him. Now others need to step up and hopefully Robins changes our shape

    Kieren Westwood

    Pegguy Arphexad is unlikely to have a club? Probably more chance of us gettin him back than Westwood :)

    Biamou Injury

    I’m not sure I agree about the sub the sub thing in AB’s case given that he came on after 2 minutes; he essentially started the game so Wasn’t like he came on for 20 mins then got subbed Although what is clear is Robins hasn’t taken a liking to him much!

    Interesting bit on Monday night football between Carragher and Neville talking about ‘adaptability’. Was around Emery coming in at Arsenal and the team seemingly not wanting to adapt to his ways and Carragher saying Emery should be the one to adapt. For once I found myself agreeing with Neville...

    Are Bakayoko Robin’s like tits? Blue, coal, crested or great?

    Ian? Or maybe Stephen? Oh boy that’s a blast from the past who I’d forgotten about and was probably best left in the past! He was awful, wasn’t he?

    Also, if he doesn’t know Bakayoko yet, does he not know the other strikers that were available either? Why did Bakayoko get the nod over the others?

    I listened in the end. What concerns me is how Robins says stuff like ‘I don’t know him well enough yet’. How long does it take for a manager to take to get to know a player? More talk that tells me there is a much bigger void between the manager and the recruitment guys than previously!

    Full time 2-0 I'm boycotting the post match conference! I doubt much will come out of it, especially since it'll be Geoff asking the questions :) Also, I have the last episode of the first series of Slasher to watch! (Recommended if anyone likes horrors :))
