    Match Thread Coventry City vs Accrington Stanley Match Thread - Saturday 10th Feb

    When we got both Barrett and JMD I was excited, but as it stands right now, we have an overweight, unfit misfit and a lightweight liability who offers nothing to our side. There is an excuse to be had that Bayliss and McNulty were still ill yesterday, but it doesn't excuse the rest of the dross...

    Throwing the season away

    If we lose again against Colchester on Tuesday I will indeed start to believe the annual slide is here. That would be 3 defeats in a row. As I said to my mate yesterday at the game, if we lose on Tuesday and are then dumped out of the cup on Saturday, that could kill our season stone dead right...

    End of racism in this country, hoorah!!

    I did mine too and I'm half English, half idiot.

    Reid's Loan Expires on the 6th

    Yep, course he can. He's our player. :)

    Today was a disaster

    It's clear opposition teams see him as a weakness. Shame we haven't got a young academy player ready to make the step up. Can Hyam play there? Has he ever done so before?

    Player Ratings

    O'Brien 5.5 - The game pretty much passed him by. DKE 2 - I have finally given up on the DKE twins and Robins should do the same. When you have the opposition deliberately targeting a player and it clearly coming off you know you are in trouble. Think he should be dropped with immediate effect...

    Throwing the season away

    Have you seen my post on Pompey? I don't think you can compare anyone else to us or us to anyone else. 20 years of decline, no playoffs, no promotion. Not even anywhere near being comparable to Portsmouth. We have been going backwards for many years. Failure to go up this season will be...

    Today was a disaster

    This is what I don't get about people being happy with the playoffs, while the likes of myself have been saying top 3 and the certainty of promotion. Don't think many of you can tell me you weren't thinking the same as me today. Got the t-shirt, been here before! Could you not see this exact...

    Players will surely be sold in the summer though. The best players we have got won't still be here.

    Throwing the season away

    We haven't, but we we have been on an neverending spiral decline now for nigh on 20 years and we all know if we don't get out of this division quickly we will be getting out of this division, but in the opposite direction. Crowds will go down next season. Undoubtedly. It will be a lot tougher...

    Exactly. Where is the stability in a massive rebuild every year?

    Throwing the season away

    Exactly. People need to get a reality check of that. Portsmouth: Promotion from Championship 2003 FA Cup winners 2008 FA Cup runners up 2010 Playing in the UEFA League 2008-9 Coventry City FA Cup 1987. Nowt since.

    Throwing the season away

    It very clearly was though. Abundantly clear that Mowbray wasn't going to turn it around and he even said so himself. He said he couldn't turn it round.

    Throwing the season away

    Top half but no playoffs is not a good sesson. Robins said the aim was promotion and we were third favourite with the bookies for promotion and considering we are 31 matches in and hardly been out of the top 7 all campaign so far, I would say top half would be deemed as a total failure.

    Throwing the season away

    I was right though. I said the play offs were out of the question and it proved to be the case. The slide season was an accident waiting to happen unfortunately.

    I think he can though. Certainly for Bayliss who just didn't look the same player was very very sluggish and under par. McNulty too. That's two of our best players right there. Doesn't excuse everything by a long chalk, but does excuse a couple of players at least.

    Don't think I could stomach another slide. Not One Slide More.

    Throwing the season away

    Famous last words from that League One Mowbray season. We're top, hoorah! We're 3rd, still good. We're 4th. We're still in the playoffs. We're 5th, but still only 3 points off the top 2. We're still 5th and still only 5 points off the top 2. We're 6th. We're still in the playoffs. We're...
