    Conor Chaplin - Signing Confirmed (Finally!)

    Tbh so had I but I think he can play ‘up top’. Maybe this gives the team a bit more flexibility. I think, generally we seem to have a few players who can play in more than one position.

    Well, I had been thinking what all this means for Allassani? He looks a similar type of player. I assume Robins sees him as a winger?

    Kyel Reid on trial at Crawley Town.

    It could be worse...I’m liking you talking about liking posts about the correct use of apostrophes.

    Kyel Reid on trial at Crawley Town.

    You got that one right.

    Kyel Reid on trial at Crawley Town.

    I think it’s ‘apostrophe’ as opposed to “apostrophes”. He should have said ‘whose’ rather than “who’s”. This is therefore a spelling mistake rather than grammatically incorrect. Just saying...

    Conor Chaplin - Signing Confirmed (Finally!)

    Hmmm, that rings a bell now you mention it. He was outstanding for Romania.

    Conor Chaplin - Signing Confirmed (Finally!)

    Mine too. He scored a goal, against Argentina I think in ‘90 (i think...Im sure you’ll know it), where he faked to shoot, trapped the ball dead on the volley, causing the player to attempt to block an imaginary shot, before passing it into the goal. My dream midfield at the time would’ve somehow...

    Good for him. What about Conor Chaplin?

    Conor Chaplin - Signing Confirmed (Finally!)

    Does this mean we’ll have to pay a fee for him?

    What about Prosinecki?

    Conor Chaplin - Signing Confirmed (Finally!)

    Yeah, he did well for a while. Certainly knows where the goal is and deceptively good with the ball at his feet.

    Prosinecki? Yeah he must be. Apparently he used to sit on his own during the half-time talk, possibly having a smoke, while the manager (graham Rix?) talked to the rest of the team. He’d still do a job for us! I loved the Yugoslavia ‘team’...savicevic, boksic, stoijkovic etc etc.

    Wasn’t crouch linked with Chelsea last year? I saw him play for Pompey a few times. Most memorably against Grimsby, when a certain Robert Prosinecki gave a master class. I hope we sign Robert prosinecki too.

    WHY?

    Perhaps their need No! No! No! We’re utter bastards and Pompey are run like a well oiled machine!

    WHY?

    That we appear to be spending anything and have signed some players on longer contracts would suggest they have good reason to be upbeat.
  17. Terry_dactyl

    WHY?

    Is it always the case that players are sold only when a replacement is lined up? Also, given that most of our transfers seem to go under the radar we just don’t know how long these Chaplin negotiations have been going on for. It doesn’t feel to me like we’re scrambling around, we’ve identified...

    “8-1. 8 bloody 1...” Now I’m watching Ripping Yarns episodes!

    Tom Bayliss

    I was actually thinking of Accrington when I commented!! He did a bit of skill, a few step-overs or something, by the touch line, which completely bamboozled their player. I turned to the person sitting next to me and said...”different class”. Then went back to shouting obscenities at everything...

    What a great talent he is. I hope he performs this year. Every game I’ve seen him, even on his off days, he’s shown flashes of brilliance.
