    Just wondered what the score was with one of our best ballplaying defenders - anyone know? It's possible he may not have been offered a return or didn't want too but I think he was one player who would be a real asset for us next season. If he has gone it's a real shame as he was a quality player and a good influence.

    I'd love it if he were to stay at Fratton Park, but will he feel it's beneath him to play in League Two?

    Possible Dev....Benfica to Bristol Rovers....is a bit of a downfall....still he will remain a crowd favourite as he stuck with us through all of the mire.

    Maybe he's too busy kicking footballs at women to resign.

    Everyone has temporary lapses, Pieking.

    Anyway, he is a Portugeezer, so we should forgive him his "sins".........

    Yes, clearly it was just an accident, and he didn't smash the ball into a fan's face.

    If he does sign again I just had a thought, we can call him Richie Roch. Dunno why I never thought of that before!

    I like it in the video clip where the chap in the white shirt comes rushing over like he's going to jump the barrier. Then just hangs his leg over as he realises what a big mistake that would be.

    Anyway, it wasn't her face. I appreciate that it doesn't make it any better. But it clearly wasn't her face. Nor did he smash it. More of a pass with the outside of his boot I'd say.

    I still reckon he was trying to rebound it off the advertising hoardings which you see players do fairly often when a ball goes out and inadvertently kicked it at the fan.

    But of course because he's a Portsmouth player, it must be deliberate.

    If Rocha was aiming it at a specific person, why was he looking down at the ball?

    And what's more, he doesn't look up at all.
