A GRANDAD vest eh? Trying to tell us something Mike?

I'm sure that's his name straight after Nash!!

Could be they are going to have a forgotten password/password recovery button on the new site? Anyway, I had one too and filled it in as they had 3 different email accounts for me on their system!

I'm inclined to agree with this.

Doh, a year out on the battle of Britain ffs, didn't have a clue about China, who would think that a country of that size would only have 1 time zone!? Caught out by the PM question :suicide_anim: went for Ted Heath! :gay:

On my sig??

Succinct and straight to the point there Romey

Quite right, unfortunately our "fiscally challenged" chairman may not agree........

5th booking Bill.....

Bill, surely you got the last bit wrong.... I'm sure you meant to say "The ref would have booked him but Gerrard would have whispered in his ear and got it changed to a red card"

Despite (Or because of) the merry-go-round of owners at Fratton Park, things are looking a tad bleak on the financial side at Pompey..... http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2009/dec/04/portsmouth-pay-players-wages Could they be the first of the premier league teams to go belly up? Or is this just the tip of an iceberg for all the clubs without billionaire backing?

Our dear friend Alan Hands-On paints a gloomy picture so we should be ok http://community.footballpools.com/blog/2009/12/05/alan-hansens-premier-league-picks-everton-v-tottenham/

Have to agree with Romey (and others) that we can't have Hibbo at CB, I'd go with Neill and Duffy personally. Midfield are going to have to put in a colossal performance to help protect the back four as this lot are very dangerous in attack with whatever pairing they go for up front. I do think though that they are vulnerable at the back and can see us pinching this by the odd goal.

This for me...... our team is much more comfortable with a 4-5-1 and we have enough goal scorers to support from midfield with Bily, TC, & Fellaini.

Second that...... may well get a start against the Yids too.

Difficult to choose again and for all the right reasons! All three of our ressies did a really good job and didn't look out of place, midfield were getting stuck in at the right times and looks so much better with Pienaar back and Cahill in his preferred position. Jo did a good job again, could he be starting to prove me wrong? In the end I went for Hibbertoni, did a great job playing out of position.

With your username?! But you are right, they are a blight on the sport and should be banned altogether...

I'm inclined to agree, but with Jo/Saha alongside Baxter....

Loved that last one Mike

A few guesses but most were ok.

A close call, in the end I gave it to Fellaini, thought he did a terrific job for a change, nearly gave it to Pienaar, made a big difference but all the midfield did well most of the time. Credit too for Jo, I can't stand him but he did pretty well up front.

Pissed off with the result, but very encouraged by the overall performance. We didn't deserve to lose that one by any means, easily the best we have played in months.

Not everyone mate, we did well last year because some players performed out of their skins and we got lucky on several occasions. Most players seem to have lost the ability to perform the basics (much like Newcastle did) and the whole team seem disjointed (much like Newcastle did). Now it's not all his fault, there are plenty of coaching staff, but he and DM are the ones who take charge of training and it's just not happening.
