we've lost twice in seven games (one of those was villa), the team are clearly improving from the shambles slade left, davies and mclard have been shipped out, and we've signed 4 new players in the transfer window.
what on earth did you expect from gus after 4 months of his tenure? he's...
for a million we could get way better than owusu and agogo. owusu would have cost nothing when we almost signed him after last season, and agogo has been released by zamalek in egypt i think - actually i think he was in dispute with them and they released him from his contract - plus isn't much...
because he has never been happy with us. said so himself earlier this season pretty much. he asked to placed on the transfer list almost from the day he joined. if it wasn't for the 300k investment we made he'd have been long gone by now i reckon.
similar story with dickinson, don't know if...
i reckon murrey will go today and we'll be signing somebody for about 400k to replace him. whing will surely sign for somebody today (wallsall), and i assume port vale will be taking a player or 2 from our reserves.
i'm sure money will be made available to gus if he wants it.
struggling in the championship but in the championship nevertheless.
just before he was sacked he was talking about having already lined up his transfers for the following season. based on the quality of his previous signings, how the players at the club had improved throughout his regime, and...
mclard, hart, davies, livermoor, whing and hawkins are all off - hawkins is being put out to grass, the others bar whing are going to port vale reserves. whing will sign for wallsall.
useful for what? a league one relegation scrap? i'm not sure if you've been paying attention but we now have a manager now who wants us to play football from front to back. this is how successful teams operate. you complain about dickinson's first touch then go onto say you think we need a...
spot on. he was okayish last season, scored a couple of headed goals for us but that's about all. looked technically poor, slow, and generally contributed little. in fact his injury in the stockport game last season IMPROVED us, we looked much better once he'd been subbed.
we now have money...
well virgs and elphic both played and played well against villa on saturday. plus cox came off the bench and also played well.
so there's 3 for starters.
jake was talented, i think if wilkins hadn't been sacked we'd have seen plenty from jake last season, and fraser shouldn't have been...
maybe not saturday but i would like to see him involved this season. hopefully gus will be brave enough to play and develop youth team prospects alongside his current 1st teamers and new signings. just saw his goal from last night, great strike son! talented forward prospect - give him a chance...
cheers. if portsmouth can manage SIX seasons in the premier league then anybody can get there and stay there.
of course it should be a combination of 1st division and premier league on tat site but that's a discussion for another thread perhaps
one decent season in the championship and you're in the play offs then anything can happen. look at burnley last season.
its not that hard to get out the championship, plenty of clubs have tasted the premier league, in fact i would guess that over 50% of the current 92 pro clubs have played in...
if you don't have a manager who's brave enough to actually play the guys coming through the youth set-up then its pointless having one.
wilkins did and we've all seen the benefits - both with players now in the 1st team squad, and those we've sold on for a profit. adams on the other hand...
