Because he did well as assistant here before, has worked with Bayern and the German national team, and worked a near miracle keeping Wednesday up. And Wednesday supporters don't want to lose him. I would love to see him here which means either it won't happen or will be a disaster if it does! 😄😇

Yes, but, poetic licence 😇

This thread is surprisingly quiet!😄😇

Buses leave from Walton Lane, essentially the main road back to the city centre. I normally walk it as I hate being on the same bus as gloating scousers, but I walked here and I am knackered (and old) so will probably get the bus back.

Totally agree with this. Unless we suddenly become Man City we will really struggle with the current system (posting partly because I desperately want to be wrong!)

38 nil-nils will keep us up😇

He was bigging himself up on his Reform Ltd FB page about his time at Saints so I very politely pointed out that under his stewardship we went into Administration and got relegated. He blocked me.

I am having to drive to this one as I live in the middle of nowhere (East Sussex). When I drive I always park on Horseshoe Bridge. It's a fair walk but I find parking any more centrally I get trapped in traffic for ages afterwards. I get out onto Thomas Lewis Way very quickly. It's also free! And there is sometimes some female company available (at a price) if you're that way inclined!😇

I passed the Saints team coach on the M25 on the way back and it was literally bouncing up and down, so I think the players enjoyed it almost as much as I did!

Anyone else noticed that Jordie Clasie is playing for them!?

Just wondered if there was likely to be any organised protests against Sports Republic's woeful mismanagement of our club? I am too old, disorganised and mild mannered to organise anything myself.

One small positive is that I only have to watch some of these players another 5 times in a Saints shirt!😄😇

In retrospect that win at Chelsea might have been our worst result of the season.

There was a chap walking from the ground to the station after the game shouting loudly at passers by about how he had been supporting Saints for 50 years and how rubbish we were. It was a bit tragi-comic! Anyone on here!?!?😄😇

I was living in London at the time and left before the Horne goal I assume to make sure I caught the train back. So a mixture of elation and being gutted I missed it for me!

I have, several times, including a couple of real thumpings.

We sit in the padded seats but didn't pay £1000 as we were forced to move there due to our seats behind the away dug out no longer being available.

I saw the U21s up there a few years ago in what is now the Papa Johns Trophy. I regularly visit Cambridge as I have a very good friend who lives there. Some great characterful pubs especially if you like real ale.

You will be hounded out of SaintsWeb for comments like that!😉 Fwiw I agree with you (although he did let a ball run under his foot out of play just in front of Ralph!). I also think all our new recruits look good, especially Lavia. We obviously need another striker, not necessarily to replace Armstrong (whose confidence looks shot) but possibly to play alongside him.

Oh of course, silly me, apologies ! So we are even more massive than a massive club !? Result!

I counted 46 again for them. I appreciate Wikipedia can be amended by pretty much anyone but this looked fairly accurate to me (but very happy to be proved wrong and that it is 33!) :https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Portsmouth_F.C._seasons

If I have got my facts/counting correct, that now equals that massive club down the road. I felt unclean accessing their Wikipedia pages !😊

Great, thanks for letting me know!

Does anyone know if there is still a bus service from the Platform Tavern to the ground? One of my friends struggles to walk very far these days due to medical issues. Cheers.

Yes, remember it well. I was right at the front and thought my number was up!
