Skates are set up to defend and we're having probs breaking them down. Need one of our midfielders to push on when we have the ball.

Wind speed and direction?

Yep Simon, Ian, Steve & Arthur (he's the oldest).

Bump - anyone going to the Winchester pick up?

Sunday Mirror reporting the NA checked out Robbin Ruiter on Friday - 24 year old Dutch goal keeper plays for Volendam and is rated at £1m.

Probably Sam giving a little message to the players he already has - 25 players is ridiculous.

Love the last 2 paragraphs

Spoke to a bloke I know at work who happens to be a PFC steward. He said that when you get to that hole down the road you'll be taken 2 coaches at a time to gain entrance to the ground ( I use the term in the loosest sense of the word) - seems as if your on the last few then ko could be missed. Just passing on the info.

Been a few times Missed the "friendly" they played against Chelsea quite a few years ago - pretty eventful train journey I'm led to beleive.

Nail on head - do not under any circumstances lower yourselves to the abysmal level they did.

Just out of interest and to stop me thinking your into Wagner - what music are you into?

Just listened to it - I think Turkish has it right TBH - "If he said "it's just another game" etc and then we play sh*t you'll all be moaning that he didnt understand the importance of it."

Got thrown out of Stamford bridge. Watched one game at the Dell from 3 different stands over the course of the 90 mins.

I think NA always takes it one game at a time TBH. Its just that this one has more importance to the fans. As to the rest - we haven't been great on our travels so I expect him to focus a little more on the how do we win away games - again it just so happens that its against that lot down the road.

Thanks for that - don't think i'll bother going now. I'm glad your not in our dressing room.

They also say they are the greatest football fans in the world...........

I remember seeing that - wasn't pretty.

Build it and they will come.

Build it and they will come.

Never - but then I have a ST. Why are you so hung up about attendances getting/not getting tickets?

84 for me - dodgy ticket for the Fratton end - mini buses/Luton vans from the Wagon. The OB ousted us on Eastern Road and we walked to the ground. Didn't get into the Fratton end as we were hearded into the Milton end. Skates made a bit of an effort but TBH they would have come off a lot worse if it wasn't for the OB. I thought we would lose the match as they played well but we made it count when it mattered. The atmos was fantastic and when the ball went in in front of the Saintly hordes the whole end just errupted - one of the best moments of my Saints following life!! I now have a copy of the Portsmouth News back page - puts a big smile on my face every time I see it. Been to most since then but none of them comes anywhere near to 84.

Gets my goat when the OB troll out the same crap in defence of the indefensible! Does this bubble continue in the ground eh? Cos thats where all of his reasons for the bubble happened. OB = Idiots in uniform and to be honest they couldn't detect s h i t on a blanket.

We'll win - a close 1 nil.

I'm not deluded my friend but neither am I slashing my wrists.

Just spent £1.3m - so doesn't seem to be a problem with funds. I fully expect to see a new striker arrive in the transfer window.
