    Just wondered why our front players don’t rotate ? The front three for MK Dons were virtually interchangeable during the match , where we seem to be very rigidly stuck to certain areas up front ? 
    Stockley unlike Yann or Taylor wouldn’t be much use out wide but can’t see why the wide men don’t swap sides for a spell. A good question though for NAds who appears to be very set in his ways with the 4-3-3 favoured formation and tactics.

    Gunter hasn't triggered an extension ever has he? We signed him on a 2 year deal last year
    2 year and an optional 1 year extension. So will probably be here next season.

    Jordan Graham hardly getting a look in at Birmingham. Seems to be behind Jutkiewicz, Hogan, Leko and Aneke in the pecking order. Worth using up a loan spot?

    Don’t forget we will have to pick up his £18k  or what ever the wage Colin invented was.

    Connor Ogilvie would have improved us yet he’s been on the bench for every game for Pompey so far, played the second half on Tuesday.

    crazy how we let a local player go to another club when we needed him, ah well

    Jacob Roddy has got a 5 year contract with the option of a 15 year extension. All he has to do to trigger the clause is know somebody else with the surname Roddy.

    He’s a very very poor man’s Jordan Cousins
    I thought Cousins wasn't all that to be honest.  Over hyped. 

    Sometimes I think people on here just don’t like Charlton players.
     Now have a go at ValleyGary who isn't  keen on Gunter.
    Alright Bertie Smalls…

    I wasn't as convinced about Ogilvie as some/most but he is considerably better than our current first choice left back.

    Agree. Think Ogilvie had been overhyped on here. Decent left back option but sounds like he’d prefer to move inside and I wouldn’t have him over Famewo. Bench option at Pompey sounds about right IMO.

    But he'd have been better than Gunter at left back, and back up for Famewo in a 50 game season.  He'd have been a good signing for what we needed at the time, on a free.

    It depends who we end up signing, if anyone.  It also depends how much he wanted etc etc.

    I don't think he signed for Pompey with the expectation he wouldn't play.  Is he a better LCB than Pearce?  I have no idea, do you?

    Our wonderful ❤ recruitment team. Pn 6k a week too. 
    To be fair when he signed we probably all thought “that’s a great signing” it hasn’t turned out that way. I thought it was strange that we signed Matthews a few weeks afterwards as well.

    Spurs playing in Europe tonight. Got a youth side out playing in Portugal. No sign of Omole in the squad. Being lined up for a loan move?

     What utter bollocks. That is my opinion of him and getting £1.5 million for him.was a couple.
    If you disagree just say so. No need for nasty insinuating comments. 
    A couple of what?
    Opps. I did type coup.  Predictive txt decided I was wrong.

    I think Richard Osman has trademarked that as his next game show.

    The type of manager to see a 51% pass completion rate and say "we made more passes than we missed"

    Odd comments. It’s not even as if he couldn’t come out and say ‘performances haven’t been great, but they’ll improve’. That would be standard wording from a manager.

    The team aren’t getting booed because they’re losing, they’re getting booed because we’re losing AND the performance has been dreadful

    Why aren’t the journos asking why more players haven’t been signed and when they will be? And if they won’t, why not?

    If the players really want to know how it's going I suggest they look at the league one table.

    We have 12 days to get the 6/7 players we need, and the only rumour is a winger from Tranmere. It’s not looking good.

    I've suggested that before, but he'd rather type nonsense and then get upset that people don't enjoy reading nonsense posts.
