Is there really no match thread for Stoke?

If so, a win would mean no match thread the week after as nobody would be in possession.

That said, there's no match the week after, so the point stands doubly.
 
This is a good read. Depressing but also quite sweet. 6 year old's dream of playing football. Apparently 6% of minutes in the premier league are payed by home-grown talent.

Don't count on it, I'm afraid. After Nov 27th, I'll go back to my usual indifference towards Southampton until the next time you play $iteh
I think the dislike towards ManC might stem from the Women's team, but then again, it is easy to dislike a club which has clearly bought its fast track to success. Sadly, that counts for practically every club that turned professional. We're just a bit more informed on how they do it these days.

However, I will take indifference and run with it as a sign that the modern Portsmouth fan can find room to be indifferent, rather than find the energy to be a snarling, bitter, former rival. And if the situation was reversed I would like to think I had the same indifference, at least. Which I do. Actually, I wish Pompey well, but my supporting era started before the rabid form of rivalry, which I sincerely hope we've grown out of, or are at least putting into the past. PUP, if that is not too much of an olive branch.
