Bollox.

This is grim.

It’s not that good !

 

[NottyImp]

And there it is. The penalty a direct result of playing it out from the back.

This time last home match we brought on big John and he changed the game.

I think we will regret that

 

[The Imposter]

Lewis for Eardley next game.

 

[NottyImp]

4 goals now conceded from this tactic. A fucking disgrace.

 

[Riiiiik]

City 0 - 2 Pompey

Oh FFS. I really hope Appleton hasn't changed too much, too soon.

 

[nlondonimp]

pompey have done virtually nothing, but we have gifted it to them.

 

[berksimps]

Thank God I didn't make the trip. It has sounded poor, sloppy at the back..

 

[bristolimp]

The most obviously penalty

Appleton we have average footballers (at best) stop trying to get them playing stupid football.

We need more Sean Raggetts and less Jason Shackle

 

[WellingtonImp]

How many games do we have to throw away through our own errors? Becoming worrying.
Portsmouth set themselves up well for this game and deserve the points, but we’ve been truly dire.

Ironically that is where most of the experience is in our team...

Raggett was a non-league clogger who couldn't get a game at Norwich, whereas Shackell has played in the Prem and Championship for most of his career. It should be the other way round and I'd still be very surprised if Raggs is any better at knocking it about at the back. Always struck me as a fairly limited "footballer" as centre halves go.

Shackle needs pensioning off

We need to get Bostwick back asap

Night all. Living is more important than this tripe. 5am alarm . Paid my tenner. But rubbish football. Sleep well imps,

I really hope our instructions aren’t boot it long tonight. We’ve been absolute crap. Has been as bad as I’ve seen us this season (edit as I’ve seen worse before)

Appleton got it wrong tonight in some way. Either tactics or how he got his message across.

O’Connor > Coventry
Andrade > Elbouzedi
Akinde > Hopper
Toffolo > Melbourne.

That said, they are absolute shithouses. Only criticism of the ref tonight is he hasn’t done them for dissent.
