This definitely isn't a game for Tavares! bizarre selection

Why drop Pratt and Gardner-Hickman?

Anyone able to message me with viewing options...

i remember us giving away a 2 goal lead at half time at fratton park in the 80`s,think it was the same season when they came up to ewood and the match turned out to be a foul ridden battle,keeley was sent off and brannagan/randall decided to inflict some retribution😆,pompey had some proper thugs playing for them in that era

Never that low,never. The whole attendance could have fit in the BBE..about 8,000 or so.

Do you know how many Oxford brought?

Full video.

25,670 to 5,670 under their watch. Some achievement that 👏

I was hoping so. I know it’s rough, but Rovers need its best fans

Don't forget our injuries, and threadbare squad. Let's not get to above ourselves, keep our feet on the ground, and pick up points.

It doesn’t seem that long ago (80’s) that the promotion places were between Oxford, Portsmouth and Rovers. We had some good battles with them both, but we never made it into Div 1 during that period. 1-1 draw today, safe trip to all the fans making the trip.

Remember Bellamy scoring two belters down there in better days. Last visit was particularly depressing.

Actual attendance on Tuesday was 5670.

we hav`nt got a great record at fratton park from my memory,though 3 points today will be massive,said before the relegation places will between oxford,portsmouth and ourselves,given that sheff wed are already gone and norwich will surely improve

If it wasn’t important there wouldn’t be any players on six figure sums per week.

I dont think I am the one who is being naive to suggest that money is still important to people earning well above an average wage.

Do we have a link to that? Because I remember after that was said, @Kjell posted this post, which said that in another Norwegian podcast Tronstad said:- I want to stay abroad for as long as possible. I’d really like to stay at Rovers, I enjoy it a lot there. I have NOT received any contract offer from Rovers, there have only been some informal conversations. Now I can’t find links to any podcast so don’t believe either view over the other, but the Elliot Jackson article about Tronstadt over the summer quotes Rudy as saying he wants to leave for personal reasons, and I don’t believe Rudy.

I think Waggott was a poor CEO. I think Mowbray was an ok manager who did a decent job, but certainly had a number of flaws. I think Anderson was a leech and out of the 4 certainly have the most disdain for, he cant be compared to managers/executives/board members (bar maybe Suhail). And I think Coyle was a dreadful manager. I dont think they shouldnt all be judged on what they have done at the club. I just am not naive enough to think that the architecht of our downsizing is anyone but the owners. I think your deflection of blame away stems around your warped logic about how "their financial clout" impacts us. They merely offset the losses every year by raising share capital or debt. The same as all Championship owners, none of then have a choice. Norwich, Swansea, Preston, QPR, the list goes on although i doubt their fans praise them for it. You seem to view it as if at the start of the year, they go heres £20m see what you can do with this.

jdt said wahlstadt needed to develop,it`s manager speak for "he`s useless and not good enough for this level",you can apply what jdt said about our former calamity keeper to what val has said about sidnei,he is`nt good enough,even the diminishing number watching at ewood can tell you that it`s always an indication of a player out of his level when they get rid of the ball as quickly as possible and then you don`t notice they are actually on the pitch,i,e vale,telalovic,sidnei,jason lowe,goulon,hope akpan

"Very certain" is a bold statement. The reasoning/theory for this should be shared, or the language reconsidered.

No you’re right, people with money aren’t bothered at all about making more money.

He said during a podcast during the summer with the Norwegian press.

Who says he will take Wolves up after they get relegate given its complete rebuild with a new squad need and gelling quickly to get up, plus will the financial support be there to do that? Who knows but promotion on a CV is better than relegation on it. You act like he is great financial difficulty, feck me. Talk about naivety

Where I may have differed from many people over the years was that rather than simply wanting to chase the owners out of town straightaway I thought the ideal scenario would have been to combine their financial clout with proper people running the Club on the ground. I dont have to like the owners, I'm not going to invite them round for dinner or anything, I just want the Club to properly funded to give them a chance of being successful. Unfortunately we never got to the situation where competitive funding married up with competent ambitious people on the ground. Anderson, Singh etc burnt their way through money like it was going out of fashion initially, Waggott and Mowbray wasted the period when they still retained a bit of an interest plodding along feathering their own nests. It was always going to happen that the owners' interest would fizzle out sooner or later and by the time we lucked upon a couple of outstanding candidates in JDT and Eustace, the taps had been well and truly turned off. Out of curiosity, as you dont seem to blame Waggott or Mowbray for anything, then using the same logic do you absolve say Anderson or Coyle from any blame? After all, it's all the owners fault and said people were acting under their auspices and with the tools they'd been given at the time.
