    Team v Potters

    A big game against a team with nothing to play for but one we really need to win. Some say that the Potters are on the beach but others think that they have contracts and pride to be playing for. They have a similar record on form as us but they have not won for three games whereas we have...

    Lions v QPR Match Thread

    When the plane took off we had not started and when it touched down the game was all over. I was restless in my seat playing through every scenario and wondering what the final score was. When we touched down I switched off airplane mode and waited for the WiFi to connect. When I got to the...

    Team v QP ha ha

    This will not be easy as we face the second best team in the form guide. Their recent record is impressive. Four wins and two draws from the last six. We are 11th in the form table with two wins, two draws and two defeats from our last six. For me the key is energy and AN is experienced enough...

    Pompey vs Ipswich match thread - 8pm tonight

    I’d like to think that both the above might happen but I wouldn’t put money on it! But…..you never know

    DeNorre signs

    Good business by the club. Knits it all together in the middle and a player you notice when he is not there. The small print says that it is on the same terms that he is already on so no added expense.

    Just Back v Baggies on MFC stream

    A disappointing and disjointed performance ending in a goalless draw. We started OK with Ballo looking lively on the left. A good ball from the Serb found Ballo in space but his shot was wide. A minute later a cross from the right from Femi fell straight to their keeper. A few minutes later a...

    Team v Baggies

    A big game on Friday night against a team that have shown some fight near the bottom of the league. They are unbeaten in six with two wins and four draws whereas we are three wins, one draw and two defeats. This will not be easy and we will need all we have got to get three points out of this...

    Just Back v Budgies

    A truly shocking first half, a better second half but narrowly beaten by the odd goal in three. We began poorly and it got worse as the minutes rolled on. They had more energy, won all the second balls, always had men wide and created several chances but a combination of poor finishing and a...

    Team v Budgies

    Another tough game against an inform team. We have an identical records over the last six games with 4 wins, one draw and one defeat. There are two factors in our favour. The first is that we have momentum and confidence overflowing after a magnificent away performance at Boro and a great three...

    Just Back v Boro on ITV

    The Mighty Lions. What a performance. And a real statement win which was thoroughly deserved. We started well but didn’t really get into our stride until the 5th minute with a shot by Casper which was saved. We were pressing hard but they had a lot of quality. Coburn and the Serb were doing...

    Team v Boro

    They really don’t get much bigger than this. At the very point we get to the business end of the season the whole scenario is delicately balanced. If we get a result against Boro and follow that up with another result against Norwich then we really will take some stopping for 2nd place. We have...

    AN’s Crocombe/Patterson Dilemma 🤔

    I guess they gave the number two a game to see how he got on whilst Max sat on the bench watching. I think that all the British based players would be on the plane as I am writing this. Have done it twice it is a truly horrendous journey. There is no direct flight as it is such a long way. It is...

    Smallbone

    Picked up a niggle before the Ipswich game and out for 2 or 3 weeks according to NAD. Might be lucky to see him again this season?

    As EA said above ITV entered an agreement with Sky to simulcast 5 games before Christmas and 5 after Christmas. The fee for the simulcast is between £500,000 and £1.5 m. I assume that it is split between both clubs so we should get between £250,000 and £750,000 for the live screening of us v...

    Just Back v Tractor Boys on ITV

    A really dogged performance second half and a thoroughly deserved point…which was almost 3! We started slightly on the back foot and they came at us with threat. There Clarke looked a handful on the left and Crama had be on his toes to keep out his tricky runs. After 5 we had our first attack...
