In an age of failing local papers is Neil Allen really a face they want to be represented by. What an idiot He's doing it to get attention. It looks to me like he's winning.

Gorgiesaint Posted 28 February, 2014 Share Posted 28 February, 2014 "I thought it would only need small changes to get us back into the top half," Barker told BBC Radio Solent. Portsmouth boss Richie Barker has been shocked by how big a challenge it has been to try to turn things around. Barker was named Pompey boss on 9 December but has won just four games from 14, with his side seven points above the League Two relegation places. "Within the first two to three weeks I recognised the changes would have to be fairly big." He added: "If I'm honest, I thought the team would be closer to the top half in terms of form, in terms of mentality and in terms of technical and tactical ability." http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/26385877 looks like he fell for the lies Either that, or he's just covering his own backside. Point wise, they didn't need that much to get them into the top half, he just hasn't delivered. Let's face it, if he hadn't pushed Connolly out on loan (to a club that has a chance of promotion this season) the goals he's scored would have them in the top half of the table. Either way long may it continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doddisalegend Posted 28 February, 2014 Share Posted 28 February, 2014 Barker wrote the 'How to motivate and influence footballers' handbook well and truly. Lets hope they don't sack him too soon! His radio Solent interviews in the build up to the games have been a highlight in recent weeks MPs are a bit boring to be honest, Howe is a bit to thoughtful and articulate to be much fun but then Barker comes on a each week and slates his own team while biging himself up and always providing some LOL moments almost as good as that seemingly really angry non league manager they always seem to interview.

Waterside.saint Posted 1 March, 2014 Share Posted 1 March, 2014 Looks as if Agent Connolly may have unfinished business at fatpipes: seems no-one there has spotted any pattern in all of this http://www.portsmouth.co.uk/sport/pompey/barker-connolly-wanted-to-go-but-he-may-be-back-1-5905465 "Richie Barker has reiterated it was David Connolly’s decision to leave Pompey on loan. But the Blues boss has not ruled out the veteran striker having a Fratton future upon his summer return from Oxford. Connolly’s surprise departure for the U’s on deadline day of the January transfer window drew strong criticism from some Pompey supporters. Since then he has netted three times in six games – most recently in the weekend 1-1 draw at Morecambe. The 36-year-old’s Fratton Park stay had soured in the build-up to his exit, with niggling injuries restricting his availability, while he was without a league goal since August. In addition, following Barker’s arrival, Connolly’s coaching role was marginalised. Then came the Oxford switch, where the former Republic of Ireland international has started just two of Oxford’s matches so far, without completing 90 minutes in either. Nonetheless, he has scored three times, reflecting the impressive goal-scoring credentials he often showed at the Blues." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The9 Posted 3 March, 2014 Share Posted 3 March, 2014 (edited) Pretty sure you can only buy them is on the island as well... Now, now, it's well known that they have an exclusive distribution deal with SportsDirect.com, who happen to own Sondico and who brand their current kit. Though despite this, there weren't any Skate shirts in the SportsDirect stores in Whiteley or Eastleigh last time I was in there. I haven't actually seen a Skate shirt anywhere other than Fratton this season. While we're discussing kit, anyone else think it was amusing that their capitulation at S[unthorpe came with them decked out in entirely red and white? Well, white shirts and shorts with red socks to be more accurate... Edited 3 March, 2014 by The9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure rallyboy is going to be sucked into Uncle Avrams speech four years on....... Love seeing the hero-to-villain swingometer in action here: "‘He’s not one of us,’ was the cry in some quarters this week in the wake of the S****horpe debacle. ‘He doesn’t get Pompey.’" If anything, Barker 'not getting' #p!sspoorportsmouth is paying a significant compliment to him. We don't 'get' them either, thank goodness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallyboy Posted 3 March, 2014 Share Posted 3 March, 2014 Don't tempt me. But..one of the comments on there is he could learn a thing of two from Avram in how to conduct himself. Really? In a completely unrelated made-up example - If I saw my season ticket money being used to pay for a club car to drive my team's inflamed manager to a bargain basement industrial estate brothel where he would wander in wearing his club tracksuit, and pay scabby crackwhores to pull him off at halftime, I think I might be asking questions rather than rewriting history and giving him a glowing character reference. It's wouldn't be the fact that he sent his little star striker out on loan, what he does in his own time is his lookout - but the fans picked up the tab! If the same gravedigger-faced bloke also dragged the team to relegation before walking out to what he described himself as a bigger club, after having the front to stand up and deliver a hilarious rallying cry full of cliched b0ll0x about how great we all are, I don't think I'd be holding him up as an example. Nor would I be rehashing tired old template articles aimed purely at distracting the easily-led and hard-of-thinking from an impending cashflow crisis ahead of a daunting game away at the league leaders. But then again I'm not that easily-led. Methinks history is being rewritten again, and the more unsavoury bits have ended up on the cutting room floor.
