That performance was unacceptable and realistically if the score was 5 - 1 to them we couldn't have any complaints. If you have any chance of promotion these are the teams you should blow away. No wonder the fans were chanting " this is embarrassing " The lack of ambition from the owners has not helped the situation, the lack of investment on the playing side firstly and as we all know they only spent money on doing up fratton park otherwise it would have been closed because it's falling down . They had the chance to turn the ground 90 degrees and build a 35+ thousand seater but took the cheaper option , it really hurts when you see the likes of Brighton with a brand new ground and many other sides that are well below us with new stadiums. We will only be small fry until we have owners that see the true potential of the club. until that happens unfortunately it looks like there's a lot more pain to come yet.
Well said. A lot of people blaming DC, yes he has his faults but a injury crisis is hampering everything atm. Talk of the state of pitches @ ROKO & the owners wont sort it out. A lot of finger pointng @ the medical staff-AC & RH need to get involved, but will anything change when we have such tight arse owners.
This run started with 1 injury Rafferty and not playing Swanson instead of moving the whole defense around.
