    Scummers going down?

    I don't understand how you can say you have a stronger squad? You don't. You have bought a number of players whom have no prem experience. You still have no idea how they will fare. Your assumptions are as equal as our opinions.

    Scummers going down?

    I'm still here but float in and out of posting due to work commitments. A good result for you at West Spam, I'll give you that. Had Scneidelin forced through his transfer I wouldn't be saying that though. I agree with Meowth, your team is no where near as string as last year and you have...

    Oh don;t get me wrong, can't wait to get out of League 2 either - but when things are going well its nice to savour it - especially when we have had nothing to sing about for 5 years +!

    Scummers going down?

    Unfortunately Possum, everything you have said above is pure speculation! You have a new manager and 7 new players who have next to no Premier League experience - you do not know how any of them will fare after 1 competitive match. You also do not know that more are coming in - you have £50m...

    Pompey v Northampton Town

    100% agree Possum. Having a number of lad who "get" the whole Pompey thing also helps. Jed Wallace for example gets it, Holmes gets it, Dunne and Hollands get it too.....the whole squad understand what this club means not just to the fans, but to the city. As i say, not counting chickens and...

    Scummers going down?

    If you are trying to compare Pompey & Saints fans at present Possum I think we are the only ones laughing currently. What you have to understand is we have had nothing to laugh about for a number of years. Zilch. Nada. We may be in league 2, but my gosh are we having a good time at the...

    Wow - this thread got some legs (and new biters :emoticon-0103-cool:) in the last few days didn't it! Harmless rivalry and "banter" (the most awful word in existence).....Long may it continue!

    Pompey v Northampton Town

    Chorley did very well last night. He has played solidly (and in no way deserving of the criticism he has been getting) in both games we put 3 at the back. For once in a very long time, we appear to have strength in depth. We are playing football and not hoof ball and I am actually starting...

    You are not done selling yet either by all accounts!

    Scummers going down?

    Haha. Oh you guys. I admire the optimism. It was exactly the same optimism I had when being touted promises by my club. And look where that got us. And I'll take Havant and Waterlooville as my second south coast club......I'd much rather take up egg chasing than pull on a striped shirt, be...

    Am I the only one who doesn't pay attention to pre season? Non competitive matches that are called friendlies for a reason. If you don't make signings quick (Koeman has said 3 are near apparently) then that was your first team. Brighton and Liverpool are worlds apart.

    We have SB and you have Ducky. Is he still quacking around?

    Scummers going down?

    You make a fair point Possum, and again, I do hope it pays off. I wouldn't say I was feeling bitter, more cautious than anything. So much has happened since NC left Saints. It almost feels like there is a hidden story underlying the last 6 months at St Marys which we may never know. The mess...

    Scummers going down?

    You optimism is to be admired Lamb. I cannot doubt that. But I feel you are waiting and seeing for too long now. Only 2 weeks till the season kicks off and only 4 weeks before the window shuts. I think the signing of Bertrand on loan is an indicator as to what to expect from the use of the...

    Scummers going down?

    The reason they won't make a signing of Lukaku's statue is because the owner is selling up. A loan signing of a player that even Villa didn't want back for another season is not a good signing. As i have previously said, this whole thing at St Marys just stinks of the crap we went through...
