Didn't John McClelland come from Pompey? Played on the opposite wing to Mark Lazarus. But a very long time ago.
Wow, someone else who remembers John McClelland! Just looked it up and he went to Pompey when he left us, so he's on the list.
According to WLS, Colback has had knee surgery and will be out for weeks. The better news is that JCS has been passed as fit for Portsmouth.

They haven't won all season, they're below us in the league, full house, boisterous away support..... Stage set for Charity Park Rangers to appear...... let's hope not.... C'mon Rangers
Will be interesting to see if Marti tweaks the set up in anyway. Would like to see us go with 2 up top at home but I have a feeling we will persist or Marti will persist with leaving an isolated striker chasing fresh air.
If Chair plays he at least picks the ball up in midfield and gets us up the pitch so in theory Dembele can be that man getting beyond the striker. No chance he starts Celar and Frey. I think I’m one Madsen invisible performance from buying a gun but no alternatives there thanks to Varane being thick as ****
I don't think he will change it at all and if Chair starts then he will be coming so deep to collect the ball that he won't be able to affect the game in his usual way.
Nice one Dave Let's hope for a change in the recent poor performances and actually have a go at them The one man up front thing isn't working, and we have striking options so hopefully Marti will shake it up and put two upfront Can't be any worse
