We all know that Pompey's current 2 points is effectively -8. So when will we get to 10 [zero]? Looking at our up and coming games and I reckon on the 22nd of this month - which just happens to be my birthday (no cakes please - I'm on a diet) I haven't yet consulted Mystic Devo, so I base that on: 1/9 - Oldham (h) WIN = 5 (-5) 9/9 - Crawley (a) LOSE = 5 (-5) 15/9 - Walsall (h) WIN = 8 (-2) 18/9 - Swindon (h) DRAW = 9 (-1) 22/9 - Notts Co (a) DRAW = 10 (0) Do you see it differently? Am I being too optimistic? Too pessimistic?
Well it would apear now that it wont happen on your birthday. Personally I think the best present you can hope for is for the PST to have taken contol of your club. However my birthday is a week before yours and I wonder what I might wish for when I blow out the candles? PompeyMeowth was only saying that we Saints fans haven't been beastly to you all recently but rest assured it will not be a wish for your demise but that the PST does take over your club as it could prove to be a catalyst for change in English Football.
Devo, I'm guessing you mean September 22nd, which happens to be my birthday as well! .. As for as your predictions go, I hate to say it, but I can't see us winning a game for a while, we were appalling against Oldham. But 8 points from 5 games ?? Yes please! Hope you're right!
It was my first game watching Pompey this season- we had 7 shots on target, they had one, they won 1-0. Our all round performance was sluggish, and that hunger the players showed in the opening matches has waned slightly. It's hard to see how a team like that could beat anyone in the division! ..
We had two more new players making their debuts yesterday - they need time to gel, they hardly know one another !
I was wondering if they were yelling to each other "oi mate over 'ere then" or even "yo mush gizzit here......"
That's more 'Sarfampton speak', 3rd eye. In Portsmouth, it is of course, "I say new midfielder, do you mind awfully passing the ball to me, and I'll attempt a through ball to our new striker, whatever his name is", spoken of course in your best Sgt. Wilson voice from Dad's Army
That's where the problem lies. By the time he's said all that, the other guy's lost the ball and they've scored
Two mods on the same board on the same forum with the same birthday! What are the odds of that happening??????
Will probably take a walk into Protaras for a few small large ones. May go into Ayia Napa, but will have to drive if I do that . I'm working on the Sunday so wont go too mad.
Sounds good! In my only visit to Cyprus, a few years back, I visited Nicosia. It was fully enjoyable- I have always thought about returning to Cyprus on holiday, but never got round to it. have Fun!
Did you go to the Turkish side? When I was there in 84, we used to have some good days out in Northern Cyprus.
