Thread | Boo boys to the fore today on the match thread
at 17:20 17 Oct 2026
One thing that p*sses me off is after a loss, there is always a pile on here on one player, as being fricking useless.
Todays attack by the boo boys was full on Harvey Vale. Appreciate it wasnt his best game, was poor today, but many others were very poor today also. Stand up Smythie, Kolli, Poku, Kamara, Adamson amd Varane and Kone, when they came on.
But yes lets all pile on one player. The guy scored a goal, entirely crafted by himself in the last game and effectively put the game out of reach at a critical time in the.game - just before half time.
Its all a little bit silly.

Obikwu has had one appearance of around ten minutes. Thats it. Richards had several.
He is on the bench, and if ever there was a game for him to come on, its this one. We have looked resigned to defeat from the second goal going in.
Actually p**d off they put him on the bench if they had no intention ever of putting him on the pitch. [Post edited 17 Oct 16:49]

Two subs in two windows that mean if we make all five subs , we have to make three all in one go next.
The sub Varane for JCS, to me says we have given up on this game, which is ridiculous.
If Obikwu is on the bench, he is deemed fit to play. Give him a chance, we not getting anything at all out of this game currently, give the kid a chance and no pressure on him for this one.

Stupid goal to give away.
But still required scoring. Rayan Kolli's fault 100%.
I would make subs at half time. Madsen for JCS. Edwards back into back four.
Saito for Vale/Poku at 60 mins if nothing changes.
And the longer the game goes on, the more I expect the lesser spotted Obikwu coming on to score two worldies to recover the spoils for the good guys..... |

I understand why you are saying that the bench looks lightweight and it is compared to recent matches, but for us to be saying the bench looks lightweight, when you have Madsen, Varane, Kone and Saito, is quite remarkable tbf. |

Appreciate the help from St Johns Ambulance volunteers, but again as a multi million pound football club, should we be asking volunteers to cover scenarios such as this. |

Don't they have driveable buggies that come on in the premier league and the player at least has a comfortable ride back off the pitch.
Stretchers are as cheap as they come. But normally you get four people running on with them, so that all four can have a side, front and back each, and they all have the ability to run, to get to the injured player in time.
The response was pub league football on a Sunday morning in the local park !!
Whats a buggy going to cost 30 grand maximum perhaps, maybe a lot less, but seems like a good investment for the club, with the hope that its never used. Not massive bucks to spend for a championship football league club. Agree, it was a pathetic response, from the club. They need to change that completely. [Post edited 17 Oct 8:28]

Re Kone, i hope he can regain his form, and from what I saw last season, Kone, Varane and Mbengue seemed to be great mates. If the unfortunate Amadou's pretty awful injury can do anything, its for his two best mates to up their game and play for their great friend.
If Kone came on today and scored, I think it could do wonders for his confidence, but
do severely hope fans don't get on his back, as think that may not help.
He was decent for us all last season, he deserves our support and hopes that he can be effective, once more. [Post edited 17 Oct 8:08]

I spell Kolli's name correctly, but pronounce it often, as if he is the mighty Virat !! |

Met my Pompey pals for the first game of the season and said had seen our new goalkeeper in pre season and said his range of passing is peak Beckham or peak Wilkins - they all mocked me and said you seriously think your goalkeeper is on a par with passing accuracy and control as those two players.
"Mad" was probably the politest word they called me.
Who's laughing now, Pompey Boys !! |

Good IDEA - maybe Morrison will get his chance now - Ingenious PLAN by the club. |

Thread | Julien Stephan is the Key - He has to Stay
at 11:22 15 Oct 2026
If JS was to leave, I think it could massively impact on our consistently improving form. You get the impression, that he is here to stay, to build up his and our reputations. Obviously, when any manager starts to show successes, they attract teams higher up the food chain.
One thing would say about JS. He does appear to be an honourable man. You would not see him whoring himself out to others unashamedly, like a couple of our most recent incumbents.
Think he knows a couple of seasons here, he could dramatically improve his and our profiles and think with the failures that Beale and Cifuentes have had since leaving our club too early, has set them back. JS knows he needs to stay here for a while - before the next move is secured for his own career.
On a night time, lets lock him up in cubicle number six of the Lower Loft Enclosure Gentleman's public conveniences.
He cannot be allowed to escape ever !!!

We have had periods of dominance in every single game of the campaign so far and this is despite shedloads of injuries, once more.
To have been competitive in all our games, and sitting in a deserved fifth place after ten games, is a more than decent performance.
Very happy. with all that.  [Post edited 15 Oct 11:05]

Yes Connell was intrigued myself to see how they both would match up with each other.
Alfie has definitely gone up a couple of notches this season, still all hustle and bustle but he is much more effective than previous seasons, and it was certainly a tidy finish. Kolli definitely today was more about giving the defence something to deal with but the shot from outside the box just tipped over the bar was superb. We have all seen his long range worldies for the development squad - nearly similar today.
But as a pair today i enjoyed them.
Although, when Derby's defender went off midway through the first half, that meant they had nine defensive first team squad members out injured, and it showed. Lets see when the two of them are up against more impressive championship opponents.
But today - well done to both lads. [Post edited 15 Oct 0:05]

Well in the LFW prediction league, I forecast a result of 4 - 0 QPR.
I left the stadium with one minute of injury time left and almost as soon as I had reached the gents urinal, I heard a small little cheer.
Apparently, it was because Derby scored, and not myself being within reach of relieving myself !!!!!

Tbf, everyone has had diaorrhea at some point in their life but thats probably going to cause players discomfort too, but does it cause all sorts of other issues, more than likely.
Covid - the word of the day, I would rather not focus on anymore, but thats a new one on me. So its the after effects of Covid that prevent us from seeing our favourite players.
Oh bugger...
Swiftly changing the subject...

Radio 4 has a new star.
So are we expecting a role in "The Archers" and an appearance for an episode of "Desert Island Discs" |
