What goes around comes around. Normal service will be resumed soon. Bournemouth already heading south. Four losses out of the last five should give you hope.

No!

This is becoming a bit like watching old "Carry On" movies from the sixties over and over again, they weren't very good then and certainly have not improved over time.

Ramsdale made his debut for the Magpies at the weekend and kept a clean sheet. With Pope out injured he has a chance to establish himself in the team so he won't be coming back here anytime soon.

Don't understand why he was even on the pitch, the bloke is a complete waste of space and doesn't want to be here anyway. We tried to sell him in the summer without success so putting him in the shop window doesn't make sense. Just pay him off and get rid. There's nothing more about him to find out Herr Eckert.

Hear! Hear! Well said.

Honeymoon over

Oh no! Not that dozy sod Stephens back in again. There goes any chance of a clean sheet. Penalty for the Lions in-coming. Good to see Matsuki back in contention though even if he doesn't get on.

No absolutely not. It may not be the 6-0 I was hoping for but we still have enough quality in wide positions to knock in 3 or 4

Despite the mockery, when it comes to culture Portsmouth has a lot more going for it than the cultural desert that is our home town.

I'll await Wade's take on us stepping into the Lion's Den but after recent perfomances it's hard to see past a Saints win, just a matter of how many we can score. I'll stick my neck out and say 6-0.

Probably a bit too early in the guy's career for the Scousers or himself to take a punt. We should take comfort from the fact that Frank was not tempted away from Brentford even after promotion. My gut feeling is that Eckert is cast from a similar mould, if he sees Saints as his project he'll probably want to stay with us to try his hand at the Premier League with a group of players he feels comfortable with. Young hopefuls willing to learn form a far different proposition from a bunch of millionare prima donna's who think they know everything there is to know already.

He looks world class to me; comparisons to Steven Davis do not do him justice. Romeu is exactly the tutor he needs right now to help hone his skills.

In retrospect Still was a total calamity for our club and his incompetence was there in plain sight for all to see almost from the beginning of his tenure. Highlighting aspects of his shortcomings cannot mask the evidential overall characterisation of his performance here as being clueless. Decent enough bloke but that's not what the Club were paying for.

One suspects he and Aribo are in the last chance saloon before the New Year transfer window. Neither justified their places in the team even as subs last night.
