Badger Posted 19 November, 2015 Share Posted 19 November, 2015 Heres an eloquent skate for you: After an article about two islamic brothers from skatesmouth being jailed http://www.portsmouth.co.uk/news/local/brothers-from-portsmouth-are-jailed-for-plotting-terrorist-acts-1-7073197#axzz3rxy0JS3A 6 years only!!! Didn't some bird who pretended to be a bloke to bump uglies with another bird get 8 years? How is that comparable?? Potential murderers compared to a mental rug muncher who conned someone who is really, really stupid He does have a valid point, but perhaps its lost in the translation.

Dark Munster Posted 20 November, 2015 Share Posted 20 November, 2015 She's got man hands And a whale of a dive. Anyway, back to the DFCSBs: if they keep dropping points there is a real danger of them falling out of joint first place. I'm wondering if this is the shit or bust season for them if they don't get promoted? A bit worrying , those parachute payments aren't going to last forever.

TopGun Posted 20 November, 2015 Share Posted 20 November, 2015 (edited) But surely the finances are absolutely fine now? Clearly good enough to maintain the revolving door policy of getting in managers and players from higher divisions and spitting them out again for nothing a couple of years later! No need to worry about infrastructure. Although I did notice a skate on the Snooze complaining that there was no lighting in the North End bogs at the last home game. Presumably to match the cold water and lack of paper offered also. Edited 20 November, 2015 by TopGun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Biscuits Posted 21 November, 2015 Share Posted 21 November, 2015 Surely you aren't suggesting that the dirty dirty skates haven't learned their lesson and have continued to spend like they are at the post Christmas sales despite the fact that they don't have as much money coming in and no super rich sugar daddy to pay the bills? It kind of reminds me of the gambling addict who, having lost everything, keeps on placing that one last bet because 'this is it lads, this is the big one that's definitely going to win' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rallyboy Posted 23 November, 2015 Share Posted 23 November, 2015 Like us they were also denied a blatant penalty. If anything that ref was too big for their game and was following secret orders from the league. Whereas our ref was just a ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redkeith Posted 25 November, 2015 Share Posted 25 November, 2015 Forget the legendary AC Milan game against Baresi, Guillet,Maldini,Inzahgi, Ronaldino, Rivera, Van Basten, Ray Wilkins, George Weah and Dasilly. In years to come all the talk will be ' I was there when we put 6 second half goals past 10 men, 7 losses on the bounce, York City. To give them some credit though, that is six more efforts on target than their last home game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many 'big' clubs there now. Play offs is failure really. They should be winning the league. They'll finished 3rd IMO which is job done I suppose. They'll have Sheff United, Wigan and maybe Bolton in L1. When we were there we had Norwich, Leeds, Charlton and Brighton. As well as very good Peterborough and Huddersfield sides. They won't have the luxury of 3 automatic spots either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The9 Posted 26 November, 2015 Share Posted 26 November, 2015 Skates still 4 points off automatic promotion places despite the win over 10 men. That's two wins for them and two defeats for the 3rd place side just to get into the last automatic promotion spot. Long way to go, but they're in bad form and have been for a while. York are so bad that they're now below Newport and I've already booked my hotel in York for the weekend for their match in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
