Match Day Thread Portsmouth v Hull City

No ****!

 

Dear Deidre. I have a problem, I need help. Hull City are 6/4 with the bookies to be relegated. I'm seriously thinking of having a big bet on them going down - and hoping I lose. What should I do?

I wonder if Ehab still has a stake? Do we know whether Acun paid all at once, or is it over several seasons? Ehab as saviour? Aargh!

 

For some reason I have hope that we’ll win because we’re away from home, Portsmouth are safe & Stoke & Derby can’t both win!
I hate hope!

 

Or not, as some will b playing in the shop window and seeing it as a chance to impress.

 

portsmouth 3-1 hull city

 

Portsmouth 4-1 Hull City

 

Better win or we might go bust or into admin then Ehab might come back.

****ing hell this fanbase.

 

And yet everyone would snap your hand off right now for the 19th place finish we managed in the Allam's last full season in charge of the club.

 

McCann got a lot of deserved criticism for our relegation to League One. However, winning the League One title first time of asking and putting us on track to stay up in our first season back in the Championship on a shoestring budget with the likes of Andy Cannon as his signings was worthy of praise. He deserved to finish that season, not to be sacked for Acun’s chump of a mate.

 

We finished bottom in their last full Championship season

 

Portsmouth has star and crescent in their coat of arms, may be Acun should check if they are willing to help another star and crescent fella.

 

Hoping City can pull off a win à la Plymouth next Saturday!

 

Nah, apparently it doesn't work like that! You dont perform to put yourself in the shop window or whatever, you down tools. At least that's what some on here say ours have done since March. Funny how the cliches are turned around to suit the narrative. It's. bollox. The squad doesn't have sufficient goals in it (as pointed out in "gobsmacked" post months ago), compounded more recently by Selles's bizarre game plans/ decision making.

 

you're right tbf

it's not like we've been battered even once in 2025
we just simply dont have enough quality alongside potentially coaching that means we just dont create and score

almost every single one of our losses is by 1 goal

 

Bowen barely made a tackle a month or so pre Xmas in his last season with us - wanted to be fit for transfer - some on here didn’t believe it but it was obvious he was going .

 

We will be fine you don’t always get what you deserve, so bye bye Luton.

 

You repeat this **** and it’s blatantly not true

 

You repeat this response and it’s blatantly not true .
It’s my opinion in watching his last month or so with us , it’s not a criticism of him he’s a cracking player but it doesn’t mean to say he wasn’t looking after himself . He didn’t suddenly find out he was going until Jan 1st if that’s when the window opened .

 

The word “safe” should be banned from the training ground this week. No one can use the word safe in relation to playing football. So for example coyle, don’t pass back from the halfway line when there’s no pressure on you and then tell everyone to calm down.
Safe football is not an option on Saturday
