Our 4th win in 44 league games would certainly be an impressive achievement. We could have 4 in 44 commemorative T-shirts printed.

I had an equally good view of him and he was standing and walking a lot of the time. When he did break into a trot, his runs were always slow enough to ensure he never won any 50/50 balls. Shea Charles was trying to cover for him by doing the work of 2 players. Azaz may be suited to less competitive games where he is given more time, as you can see he has some skill. But, our midfield looked noticably more competitive in the final quarter after he went off. .

Azaz was at the centre of our midfield. He was the one supposed to be feeding the ball to others.

In the quarter of a century since the stadium was built, there has been a 20+% increase in the population of the local area. This is slightly above the national average for England, where there has been an overall population increase of 16.5%, which is why so many clubs are increasing their stadium capacities. You have to keep up with the times. Of course, it's likely that the population will continue to grow. So, it would make sense to plan ahead with enough capacity for the years ahead. Southampton Urban Area Population in 2000: 792,000 Population in 2025: 967,000 Percentage Increase: 22.08% Projection for 2030 1,002,000 So, by 2030, there will be approx. 210,000 more people in the Southampton Urban Area than when the stadium was built.

If you feel that way about it, go and drink in a pub in the Pompey area, wearing a Saints hat. They knew what they were doing. You can hear 'Blue Army' at the beginning of the video.If the Pompey fans had kept quiet, they'd have been left alone and if they had, believe me, they'd have been boasting how they'd taken a scummer pub unchallenged. Westwood is already putting a spin on it it in the Portsmouth News, saying he was on his own outside and the Saints fan ran past him before he could catch him. Anyway, people pay good money to get beer thrown over them at an Oasis concert. It beats getting punched in the mouth.

I think you may have overestimated them slightly. According to the BBC player ratings, Manning was one of the worst players on the pitch while Azaz was the worst: Republic of Ireland C. Kelleher 5.62 E. Ferguson 4.47 A. Idah 3.99 L. Scales 3.66 J. Knight 3.60 M. Johnston 3.58 K. McAteer 3.57 K. Phillips 3.49 D. O'Shea 3.47 C. Ogbene 3.44 J. O'Brien 3.44 R. Manning 3.32 N. Collins 3.29 J. Taylor 3.23 J. Cullen 3.22 F. Azaz 3.10 World Cup Qualifiers: Republic of Ireland World Cup hopes dealt major blow with defeat by Armenia - BBC Sport

We've got a lot more historical facts we could use if we wanted to, like when Parliamentarian Southampton defeated Royalist Portsmouth in the English Civil War. When Portsmouth was attacked from the west, the Pompey Royalists either ran away or surrendered. The truth is though that these Portsmyths started from the 1970s onwards and most of them, including the dock strike originated even more recently in the 1990s. It was created as a spoof story in a Pompey fanzine, called Frattonize, in which Southampton Corporation Union Men broke a strike by Portsmouth Fish Corporation workers. At my first derby game, in 1966, I was with Dougal's mob in the Fratton End and there wasn't a single Pompey fan who'd even thought of shouting Scum or Scummer. The derby wasn't even considered a big game back then so there were swathes of empty terraces at Fratton Park, which meant Saints fans could march around three sides of the ground, unopposed. Any history they don't like, they've reinvented, like the origin of their nickname, which came from their pink shirt colour, resulting in them being called Pompadour Pinks then just Pompey. They now claim all sorts of heroic legends like brave men from Portsmouth climbing Pompey's Pillar in Egypt, which is total bullsh!t. A lot of these Portsmyths became established as 'facts' after a pre-match interview Colin Farmery gave to the Guardian before one of our derby games.

You'll certainly need to, Turkish as I didn't say that. Can you show me a link to this supposed statement on here? I'd be interested to see it.

Yes, that one was bad but this one is worse. We bought Ramsdale and Fernandes last summer. At least we improved one of the key positions: goalkeeper. We haven't even done that this time.

Worse than last summer's. We knew the team had a weak spine and that as our priority we urgently needed to strengthen 3 key positions in this window: goalkeeper, centre half and centre forward. We haven't strengthened any of them.

and a centre forward.
