Wonder if we'll be tempted to give ABK another go as he looked too quality on occasions last season.
Definitely need to bring in another CB otherwise.
Like you I've always had a soft spot for Stephens but we certainly can't be relying on him, we need better quality and he can compete for a place or be a back up guy. |

Yep it's whether his legs have gone or he's got a little bit left in the tank.
He was a wonderful player back in the day.
I've not really seen him play much for Brighton.
He was genuinely two footed and technically excellent.
I guess you'd play him centrally in the Stuey role and hope he can link up the mids to the strikers. |

It's got to be one the hardest parts of running a club is recruiting the right players.
Sometimes it must be down to sheer luck.
We will continue to waste money on duds as that's the case at all clubs.
We've just got to get a higher success rate this time.
We've got to be pragmatic and approach the situation around players that will get us 40 points in the first season and then build from there.
One step at a time and please not a young kid in goal again ffs! |

Totally agree.
Yes we could get smashed most weeks and go straight back down.
Yes the Championship is fun, all winnable games and no VAR.
But why can teams like Bournemouth, Brentford, Palace, Brighton, Wolves, survive and prosper?
We are bigger than all of these, with a better pedigree over the last 30 years.
We need to recruit the right players and manager.
It's as simple as that.
Get the recruitment right, survive the first season and build.
We should be less defeatist.
If Bournemouth and Brentford can do why the hell can we not do it better than them?? |

We've got a similar situation.
My 69 year father in law can't now go and my sister in law is going to use his ticket and just gamble she won't get checked as his is a concession.
It's really frustrating as we would happily pay the full amount but Saints ticket office made it clear on the website they won't ammend any bookings. |

4-3-3 clearly worked for a big chunk of the season as that was the system we played under during our unbeaten run.
Eventually and inevitably we got sussed out and the weakness for me was a lightweight midfield that lead to our defence getting too exposed.
We only have Downes who can really dominate in the middle of the pitch, unfortunately Charles looks a little lost currently.
Hence why we've looked better with three CBs to mitigate this deficiency and it allows KWP/Manning/Fraser to bomb forward with more freedom. |

Usyk was the clear winner.
No way should that have been a split decision. |

No big deal as far as I'm concerned.
The club wants passion and noise, we all want that too.
You can't then expect every single fan to be law abiding and respectful 100%all of the time. Ain't going to happen is it. Booze and young lads is recipe for fun and a bit of chaos.
No one got hurt and yes baiting the West Brom fans lacks class after we've just won the game but worst things are going on out in the world that the cops should be focused on. |

I was with my my 11 year old lad and like you it's immense that you can share these moments that you'll both never forget.
Feel very proud of both the team and supporters and our city after last night.

Definitely a grumpy old man vibe on here aimed at the nippers.
Totally agree all the anti Pompey guff is annoying and comes across a bit sad.
As for the West Brom playoff I really don't mind drums, banging, pyro, howling or growling.
Just as long as the players feel a sense of we're right behind them. |

Exactly.
Considering how both us and Leeds sh*t the bed at crucial moments this season it wouldnt surprise me at all if it ends up a West Brom Norwich final.
As highlighted on a previous thread, sh*t housery, ultra tight defence and a whole load of luck are often what decides these super tense encounters. |

All water under the bridge now.
What next a debate on the merits of Wesley Hoet.. No!!!
My two pennies worth.. We were a a pretty crappy side Ingsless and Ralph started looking lost.. The press was gone.
Broja started featuring about a third of the way through the season and he was frankly sensational.. Wow what a player he was, 12 games and a load of points on the board and he played a massive part in this upturn with a run of goals.
Top 10 finish was being spoken about.
Bang.. Complete collapse.. Villa I think, the rest of the season was an endless succession of defeats and Broja very much lost his Mojo.
Season saved by a Forster masterclass in a dogged(lucky) win at home to Arsenal.
I'll always have fond memories of Armando.
We live to see if he can find that level again. |

Yep, love to sign him up.
The save from the Smallbone shot at SMS was one of the best I've seen.
Ironically he didn't cover himself in glory with Armstrong A goal at the New York Stadium.
Classic Arma.. He scuffed the easy chance but Johansson probably anticipated a hard shot into the corner ended up diving over the top of the shot! |
