This thread is hilarious. Straight back to negative mode all round until the 4th went in. We sat in a car for 9 hours yesterday and it was horrific. The team coach was even worse with the squad taking around 11 hours to get there. Can hardly blame them for being slow out of the blocks. Add to...

If oxford have a written contract that says he can't be recalled And he's scoring important goals they wouldn't let him back even if he wanted too.

Apparently Connelly made sure there was no recall clause so he didn't have to come back. He's obviously a bit of a prick having heard the rumours about him and pat and various other spats. However with the right man in charge would it have been allowed to have gone that far?

Dangle a carrot in front of one of the big boys a large staying up bonus on a couple of month contract should do. You never know they might like it down here. Next season you could offer the same low wage with a large promotion payout. (Payouts obviously within safe reason)

I can't help but think we should have bent over backwards to keep rocha for another year. Could have quite a decent defence by now in butler Webster rocha and Bradley. They all would have learned huge amounts from him. My approach would have been Rocha Ertyl Connelly And the rest of the...

Need someone short term to get in there that can really kick them up the arse who has the club at heart.

Would love to know the ins and outs of barkers appointment. If we turned down wilder tisdale etc and chose him instead then the board have a lot to answer for. It's probably just as likely that they turned up saw the state of the squad and the way the board was set up and ran for the hills.

I've already written this of as a nil point game so might as well go for it. Devera 0-1 is worth a look at 240/1 on sky bet............ Last time I saw odds like that for one of our centre backs was chelsea away on the fa cup. Puts things into perspective.

Few teams in free fall and we have plenty of winnable games.i think 48-50 points will be more than is needed this season can see us around 17th

N'gala had a pretty decent game. One near clanger but he just about recovered. Fogden was immense tonight the lad has bags of energy and seems to love a tackle when the crowds behind him! Also drennan is stand out class potential at this level. Strong lad as well could make a difference for us...

Have to think a lot of it was a reaction to the interview that went to press Saturday morning. If you are trying to motivate your side for a relegation scrap surely the last thing you do is tell the press that they are all basically scrap in the summer. I've like the fact that he has tightened...

Think they caused a bit of **** before the game. They have an unfortunate yoof much the same as mansfield and southend that give it the big one then rapidly disperse if any one wants to show them the consequences of their actions

As far as Connelly is concerned I'm pretty glad he's gone. Undoubted talent at this level but clearly causing havoc here and 75% of the games I've seen him feature in he looked 50 years old. Not sure how many of the rumours are true but it sounds like he's had bust ups with a few players...

We are playing well now on the whole and the only real thing holding us back is the crap intimidating atmosphere a large chunk of the fans are creating at fratton. I'm 28 and have been going to watch pompey since I was 5 years old and I can't remember a time when the fans have been as poor as...

Lads played well today. All gave 100% calm and composed in midfield despite groggy pitch and gale force winds. Exeter threw everything at us second half with the wind behind them and got their break with twenty seconds left. 4 minutes time added on instead of the 1-2 I'd expected didn't help...
