I was at Fratton Park today watching Pompey vs Norwich.
Neither side impressed me too much…Norwich scored from 2 set pieces. Not sure where the Pompey defence was for either. Norwich are big and strong but didn’t really create anything.
Pompey only really started playing in the last 10mins…after Colby Bishop missed a pen.
Segecic for Pompey looks really good.

Edit: also saw a young lad in a Cov top about 2 hours before kick off. If this was your son, it was me who shouted “Skyblue Army” at him while I drive past, nearish the ground.

Did he have long hair and was skinny? Wearing glasses?

Bloody pen at that stage of the game, suspicious, buying favours.

Definitely a penalty tbf

I don't want them carrying over their league 1 dominance momentum

Still early days though

Was it Sheffield Ubired who dis that with Billy Sharp?

Sounds like you've had a good one today, fella!

Splendid day to be fair. Trying to convince a mate to stay out.

After 2 games that's 4 goals Wrexham have conceded in 80+ mins.

Looks like signing dads army is more of an issue at this level.

Announce Monga!

 

[mmttww]

Announce Monga!

he's from Cov, was with us as a kid, plays left wing... get it done, Doug! we can fill a gap in the squad and kick Leicester's dick in at the same time. sorted!

 

[Ccfcisparks]

that goal hahahahha

 

[TomRad85]

Southamptons team doesn't look all that on paper to me. Might change if they somehow manage to flog Dibling and Fernandes for £50 million a pop.

This left centre half for Southampton looks horrendous

I noticed that Smallbone hasn’t made the Saints squad at all today which would probably confirm they want to get rid of him . All personal opinions of course but he has always struck me as being a good player

He's injured i believe

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Both teams look really weak here.

These are the weakest 3 relegated teams in a while and a great opportunity.

 

[procdoc]

So far none of the relegated teams look like anything for us to fear. A few quality additions and we will be right up there

They will also reinforce their squads, especially with the silly money about and Ipswich have just earned 48m in player sales

You reckon? I was just about to post saying how strong Southampton’s bench is.

Yeh reckon it's poor compared to a lot of relegated sides in recent years. Still expect them to spend though.

It’s about time we started bigging up our own squad. There’s a reason why other teams want to sign some of our players

 

[SkyblueTexan]

1-1 is a good result there. Keeps both Ipswich and Southampton in check.

 

[covcity4life]

Only saw first half but looked like soton are a better team than Ipswich. Glad they both dropped points though

 

[TomRad85]

Imagine thinking selling Rudoni to Southampton would be a good idea...

To be fair look how badly all three performed last season.

None have particularly strengthened as of yet either and all are set to lose most, if not all, of their better players.

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Maybe Hull are not as bad as people make them out to be although Oxford are bad. Palmer playing well.

They seemed decent enough Vs us. Solid team


But I don't prescribe to the thinking that anyone we play is shit and there for the taking but at same time every side playing in the league on a game day is playing better than us and we simply are not good enough

Just weird like that I guess ..

 

[Evo1883]

I think both these teams will be down there come may

 

[covcity4life]

I wouldn't disagree. But don't think Hull played poorly Vs us at all
