We've been in this wretched division for so long I'm long finished with 'entertainment'. For me it's now all about results.
.....but we got boring and a dropped two points on Saturday.

Cheltenham came with a defensive plan for a point & achieved it.
We ran out of ideas quickly & had No Plan 'B'.
No I didn't go yesterday although I was offered a seat at too late a stage.
I listened to Guy & Andy Moon on iFollow radio coverage & really glad I didn't go!
The team isn't as good as last year I believe after ME stating he was prepared to spend on the team.
Most of the new recruits are on Frees & the 2 loans look good but probably Not on massive wages.
The formation is too defensive for Home Games & away games against weaker opponents.
Bishop is a 20+ goal striker but needs support & Not convinced Saydee has enough quality to score 10+ goals.
Hopefully, more funds are available to strenthen the team before the transfer window shuts & also in January for a final push for promotion.
How do you know all this without watching the games?
It's overall Not good enough in my humble opinion.
Hmmm, how do you know about away games then?
So from 1 game you know the team isn’t as good as last season which are also judging on a what a handful of games at best?

I'm sure Blue Army currently Sydney would set you straight there. I am impressed with Regan Poole though looks class at this level.

RE: Totally unacceptable - TheSyrup - 26-08-2023
I watched the first half on I follow and was so fcuking bored that I went and jet washed the patio.
They are as dull as dishwater and won’t be going anywhere.
RE: Totally unacceptable - Hammie - 26-08-2023
/i keep falling sleep during the radio coverage, not the most entertaining team I have listened to/watched.
RE: Totally unacceptable - Pedalo_menders - 26-08-2023
2nd half was a bit more entertaining but yes, I agree we are boring as fook to watch for the most part. Far too predictable.
We do seem to be a bit more solid than before but we are desperate for creativity. We have not adequately replaced Jacobs yet.
RE: Totally unacceptable - Jizbag - 27-08-2023
Our set pieces are shit, we have no threat from corners and I don't even recall a decent one put in yesterday.
Ponderous, slow, predictable..but we have a solid defence. Great!!
Fuck off Moushino.

Curious. I enjoyed the first half more. I especially enjoyed Camara’s performance.

I listen to the radio & get a pretty good idea. Also friend who's a season ticket holder who gives feedback.
You don't attend away games do you?
Just watch the poor coverage on iFollow TV.

What’s so poor about the ifollow coverage?

Those of us who grew up waiting for teletext to click around 32 subpages are probably content with the iplayer coverage!

I doubt he’s ever watched ifollow, gets his beloved radio commentary whilst being able to watch it, how bad can it really be?!
RE: Totally unacceptable - mikey393 - 28-08-2023
Maybe if we get into the Championship & get some decent sponsorship deals we can have Pompey TV. If that were the case I'd subscribe as I'd know the money was going to the club.
I get the impression that you just like to argue with anyone who doesn't agree with you. We are all entitled to our opinions on here Not just you.
RE: Totally unacceptable - Cunninglinguist - 28-08-2023
Pompey earn revenue from iFollow. Surely the aim is to watch Pompey play. I am at a loss as to why you don’t want to contribute to Pompey’s coffers and watch your team play.

Because I'm quite often doing other things so listening to the radio which I pay for suits me better.
i hope that's o.k.?
RE: Totally unacceptable - Cunninglinguist - 29-08-2023
So what is it that are you going to stop doing when Pompey TV start up that you can’t stop doing now? It’s only a couple of hours, out of your retirement from the marketing world.
I hope that question’s ok.
RE: Totally unacceptable - TheSyrup - 29-08-2023
Sideways, Sideways, back , forward, Sideways, back, forward, lose the Ball
Repeat for the rest of the game.
Very poor indeed
RE: Totally unacceptable - FiftyYearsOn - 29-08-2023
not watching today. Is it last saturday and the one before repeated but with different players? Dear God and someone interviewed after the last game said the crowd needed to be more patient while we play sideways until an opening presents itself... hmmm when will that be then?
RE: Totally unacceptable - West Australian Portsmouth Fan - 29-08-2023

RE: Totally unacceptable - Hammie - 29-08-2023

God, I hope that the modern fixation on playing out and one up front has run its course, soon, soon soon,
RE: Totally unacceptable - Ain’t got a Danny - 29-08-2023
Mousinho will either turn it around and do well or carry on down the same shite path failing to score or win games and end up like Cowley. He’ll be sacked for receiving dogs abuse which the Eisners don’t like to hear because they know it’ll be them next.
