Saw this stat today. Makes for good reading.View attachment 40322

In fairness, we have been in the Top 3 for xG for ages anyway & well before the sacking of Robins. We've then played 2 of the bottom 4 at home & had a penalty in one of them.

As poor as we’ve been, win tomorrow and we could go 10th, not Sure wev‘e got enough for a play off push but we could be right up there after the next 4 games, mad league

 

[Nick]

I think so. I've heard stories about him being so pissed that he's fallen down the gangways a few times, then there was the time he dressed as a women to go into the womens toilets - not sure if that was in F.Park to be fair.

I'm sure a mate of mine said he always gets smashed before KO and often staggers in late.

The most common thing I hear about him though (other than him being a Librarian) is about his body odour.

Thankfully, I've never been close enough to catch a whiff.

What is it with "famous" fans and not being able to wash. Is it part of the deal?

Everyone in the family supports Pompey, except me. The eldest brother and nephew are going tomorrow and I’m watching from the US at 7:30am.

This phone’s getting fuckin turned off if we lose.

I’ll give you the addresses m8.

If you can get in, drop an upper decker in the toilet cistern (the gift that keeps on giving).

Interesting.

Would have started Bidwell and simms myself. But there we go. We’ve cried out all
Season for consistency!

big game today - will be tough down there, first goal key. Be huge mentality boost if we can win and get on a run.

 

[Noble]

Early start this, safe travels all

 

[Nick]

I think we're due to give somebody a hammering and have a clean sheet. I hope it's today.

 

[Skyblueweeman]

And if anyones woken up ill and isn’t travelling, give your ticket to someone else to give to me and I’ll transfer you the money ;-)

I'm in a ticket group on WhatsApp and two people have posted on there that they've got a spare and are traveling

 

[ptr]

They’re desperate to get Norm going aren’t they. Get him scoring.

 

[robbiethemole]

I’m in the Meriden waiting to go to theatre at 9.30, so the upside is, should be out in time to catch some of the match.

Can you ask them if I can have one please FP? I can DM you my number to pass on if one of them is happy to sell.

With all the crosses going in i thought it looked an ideal style to have Simms in the middle, Lampard obviously sees something in Bassette though. Totally agree on Bidwell, will be interesting to see how much squad rotation we see with all the games over Christmas/NY

Surprised and happy with that

NHS referral mate, bloody brilliant

Picking up the slack?
Good luck anyway, get it done with and get back up the CBS soon!

 

[Jamesimus]

Yeah same really. Like a lot of others I would have liked to have seen Simms start if so many crosses going into the box, but it’s clear Frank sees something in the Hound and is after a bit of stability in the starting 11.

Da Silva Away. Don't feel right.

When's that match?

Simms has to be out of favour and or being moved on in January

Almost like Bidwell is leaving in Jan so a new left back can come in.

Lot of games in quick succession, and Bidwell's only recently returned from an injury. You may be correct as well, but I'd prefer right back cover for MVE - if he's injured, we would have to play Eccles there.

 

[Nick]

Amazing how everybody is leaving if they aren't in the starting 11

He's just explained why kithcing hasn't played but we still have conspiracy theories on here

Or Lati.

There was a knock at my door a few mins ago but I couldn't get there quick enough (kids). But just went to open the door and someone has left two match programmes on my doorstep in a plastic bag. Totally random...not sure who it was!

Who you given your address to?

 

[Skyblueweeman]

Who you given your address to?

Well I don't know really?! A couple of Pompey fans in the close have said its not them.

Soooo strange.
