We don't pick over every word. Only when he says something odd or ill-advised. Him talking about 'nicking a goal' almost suggests he expects us to lose. Not what you want from a manager. As I said, I hope there was more to it and that's not what he meant.

Well I've always agreed that it's partly the players fault, so don't get your point. For me, main blame, Sisu, partially to blame, players and manager.

I now like Watford an awful lot better.

He was sandwiched between two thick slices of heavily buttered bread if anything.

But it is the players who are part of the problem. Been a lack of effort and application all season long ..... or are you saying Thorn has been wrong to criticise the players for the silly mistakes? He's been saying all season we have to cut out the silly mistakes. Cranie, though not the...

I always hope we win. I always hope we won't go down and we will do well. I always hope any manager will succeed. I quite often think we are going to lose and sometimes (like this season) I think we are going to go down. Sometimes I think a manager isn't good enough. Do you want me to think...

How? :facepalm:

It's not very optimistic though is it. He should be talking about our being positive about our chances rather than us nicking a goal. That just sounds like he is hoping we hang on for grim death and nick a goal totally against the run of play. Sometimes i wish he wouldn't say anything. He's...

Instead of waiting why not try and do something to help our plight!

What about Eric Black up front? Phil Neal was also a very good right back.

We must not lose at Bristol. it is that simple.

Big worry now that Pompey have renewed belief after last night, when a win for Brum would have all but condemned them.

Donny still have Southampton, Middlesborough, Leshtur and Birmingham

Bristol still have to play Middlesborough, Hull, Birmingham and West Ham.

Think that is quite obvious anyway, but in terms of fixtures they have too. They have a tough run in. Middlesborough away Derby home Forest away City home Birmingham away West Ham home Barnsley home Burnley away Some very hard fixtures there with Brum, Hull, Middlesborough...

Do you think if our lot told the Bristol players during this game coming up that they were safe they would let us win? Worth a try .... though that of course in turn that could well send Sunderland down from the Premiership.

I recall my saying last year that Brighton would be pushing for the play-offs come the end of the season and got shot down in flames by a few oh here, who said they would drop like a stone and would struggle to survive. Shows what can be done by an underdog team. Look what happened with...

If it's 46 or 47 points to surivive then we are gonners for sure in my opinion. I don't think it will be myself. It will be around 42-43 I feel. It needs to be too for us to have any chance whatsoever. 16 points in just 9 games is just beyond us. That's 5 wins and a draw, or 4 wins and 4...

From what I heard tough on SSN last night, Birmingham were cruising for most of the game. Then Pompey equalised and then their 2nd goal was a clear handball by their own player, which Birmingham players were livid about. When Blues had a player sent off they continued to push players forward...

Course they could. All we need now is a 10 point deduction for going into admin and they will be right back into the mix.
