Chaplin on for bright.

Gamble and put him actually up front.
I've a horrible feeling Robins is trying to convert Chaplin into some kind of L1 Messi. He's played him in that deep role so often that there must be a plan behind it.

We need a proper solid left back mason is too small tidy enough but how he can’t last 90 mins at this stage of the season is beyond me.

Not sure why. Not got the movement or skill to do that. But suprisingly not got the pace to play of the last man or height/strength to play CF. For a supposed poacher he doesn't seem to take the chance to get into scoring positions prefering to hold back. I'm really starting to wonder exactly which role he could play in the team.

Also why I'd like to see Ponti get a chance ahead of him up front in a game like this - he actually does try to get into scoring positions and get a shot off.

He isn't playing up front, he is behind the striker.

Yes, that's why I've not said Ponti should've come on for Bright. I'm saying if we chage things up front I'd rather see Ponti brought on than move Chaplin up there. As for Bright, I think I'd have prefered to see Westbrooke given a run-out.

If we arent going to try and score, can we get any players leaving to start a fight?

Clive really is fkin useless. He’s just asserted that Portsmouth losing is of no consequence to the play offs failing to notice that as it stands Charlton are now third and poised to play Donny in the semis. Meanwhile Sunderland to meet Pompey over two legs.

So you’re saying it will be Pompey instead of Donny attacking the downtrodden women and children of wearside?

Bigger things on the horizon, but not a day to have a go at any players. Been a good season - hope MR is given the opportunity to develop the team.
