The9 Posted 17 February, 2018 Share Posted 17 February, 2018 A 2-1 loss against 10 men means their real rivals Plymouth have somehow jumped above them in the league.

Batman Posted 18 February, 2018 Share Posted 18 February, 2018 Plymouth have been on an unbelievable run before Xmas, they were bottom of the league, regularly getting players sent off and had something like 4 keepers injured. now, comfortably above Pompey pushing for the playoffs. plymouth do have a player with star quality at a level I doubt Pompey have.

Pamplemousse Posted 20 February, 2018 Share Posted 20 February, 2018 Had a read through of POL, lol. If anything tonight, I thought Cook looked younger than I remember him being at Fratton. I don't think he handled the pressure that well here. Yeh he only won the bloody league title for them, apart from that, the pressure got to him As well as multiple comments about Wigan having fewer fans, it being easier for him there, blah blah blah They're still bitter about him leaving, someone suggested that they were going to sack him and bring Jackett in anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pamplemousse Posted 24 February, 2018 Share Posted 24 February, 2018 One of the worst games at Fratton for a long time but the wins at MK Dons and Fleetwood have only papered over the cracks: this is a poor team playing boring, uninspiring football. Had we not suffered so many injuries it’s possible we might have sustained a playoff challenge but I’d be surprised. Even then, it wouldn’t be a patch on the team that got promoted last season. The Eisners need to be careful: so many supporters I know are not bothering with home games now. Discontent is rife down there. Not sure what they're moaning about to be honest, a solid consolidation season is good for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picard Posted 17 March, 2018 Share Posted 17 March, 2018 Conor Wilkinson on his loan spell at Pompey That loan didn’t last long. He came off the bench for 20 minutes in Pompey’s final league game, before they went into the League 2 play-offs. Wilkinson’s hopes of being involved in those ended on the bus trip to Plymouth for their semi-final clash. “I wouldn’t sing,” claimed the 23-year-old Irishman, who was expected to perform in front of his new team-mates as his initiation. “I had been there for a day, I felt awkward in front of the lads. “I said to him (then-manager Paul Cook) I would have happily paid the fine or done something instead of sing. It was pretty awkward to have sang in front of 20 lads. “I wouldn’t have minded had I been there for a few days or so, but after one day he wanted me to sing and I wasn’t very comfortable with it. I didn’t want to sing and he sent me back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing how so many Pompey fans are that out of touch with top flight football they haven't realised it hasn't been called the Premiership since 2007! 11 years ago! As for your question... well you made the claim so the burden of proof is on you to provide the evidence! I have a feeling you are jumping to the conclusion you want with little in the way of conclusive evidence.

benjii Posted 23 March, 2018 Share Posted 23 March, 2018 So is it true Gao has leveraged £210m worth of debt to buy you and expects premiership income to repay it? We don't know. Maybe. Either way, and irrespective of this, I don't plan to buy another season ticket unless he reassures me of his intentions and credentials. And if we start ****ing other people's (charities, schools, small businesses, other football clubs, tax authorities etc.) money away on players to achieve some sort of success (which doesn't look likely), I won't be celebrating and I will expect the club to suffer what punishments come its way.

As a fan base we're currently trying to work this out, as opposed to sticking our collective fingers in our ears and shouting "la la la la la" in the style of the fans of the previous football club that played at Fratton Park prior to 2012. Meanwhile, we're attempting to win the FA Cup on merit rather than cheating our way to victory. Thanks for asking though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
