I suppose you could peal it, then round the edges - maybe with one of them tatty pealers. then maybe buff it off with some sandpaper (easy jimbo), finally some water and rub it down? thats about as polished as I think you could go without adding varnish.

What do you think the answer is then? Failed. Pure and simple. Obvious to even the most optimistic of fools. He's failed to improve results but the players look, if anything, more motivated, or at least have in some games since Keegan took over. Especially when compared to the last 6 weeks or so of the Allardyce reign. Gee whizz. All hail the messiah then. What shite. What the fuck did you expect like? The turf to part when he walked out? Oh hang on, that was moses

Was it fuck I was asking if you meant motivating the players was KK only role, or one job as you say? Or, do you mean that one part of his job as a whole? I was guessing you were trying to make some kind of point, but wasnt sure what that was? As for motivating, I think KK is struggling to lift the team once we concede. As soon as that first one goes in, we seem to accept the inevitable.

meh

I last seen them play against Blackburn, they didn't look unmotivated ? Or are you implying (oddly) that is KKs only role? Not sure what you're point it? Or maybe it should be me thats going to bed

Did you miss Keegan saying every manager would wish for 10 smiths in their squad? Exactly - allardyce should be applauded for the vision in signing smith. Obviously he bought a player rated by every top class Premiership manager, or either, rated by every shite Premiership manager. You choose Einstein. Allardyce shite? I dont think so. if one of the top 4 clubs changes manager i bet he gets the job. Are you on crack? That was tongue in cheek wasnt it? Wasnt it?

I think we'd have been playing worse, maybe had the same number of points, but a better GD. I think he'd have been tighter at the expense of going forward. We have a stupidly small squad (and a lack of quality). Of course its all subjective, but lets not forget, under Sam we failed to beat Derby twice. We got beat 3-0 at home to Liverpool and KK wasnt in charge when this team got beat 6-0 by Man Utd. I think the slide started long before KK came and Im not sure exactly how much he could do to get different results to what we've had. I feel a bit pissed about the blackburn score still, but other than that, I cant think offhand of any game we deserved more than we got, or what Sam might have done better?

After Wigans point today, I now have us finishing 17th on goal difference (33pts), same as Reading and Wigan (but both have better GD).

Like I keep bleating on about, a few teams around us have tough games and that could be our saving grace. (providing we get "some" points)

Just re-grout it. Shitty job like, but basically scraping all the old stuff out and then slapping the new on.

A few of the teams around us have tricky run ins like. Bolton being a good example. Its this fact that Im pinning my hopes to

2-0. If it stayed like that pompy would be pissing themselves. But, would be far from nailed on for them. Be a canny final

Cheers That bit in bold has been our problem for some time I fear.

I think we'd be safe with 7, I think we'll get 5 and be safe. Cant see us getting anything from Brum, and then draws with the MAckems and Reading. We need to start fighting to stay up though like Reading are and not thinking we wont go down.

Pompey favourites I reckon

After today I now have us finishing 16th, with relegation going to Derby, Fulham & bolton. I still have us getting 0 points next week at Birmingham, but 3 points at home to Fulham. Its that game which I see as the key one and then the reading game (though I have us getting 1 points there). Another key game I think will be Bolton at home to city, I have bolton getting a draw and would really need them getting no more.

Sorry like but did anyone expect us to get anything from today? Im more worried about Reading winning than I am us loosing today.

Set up ultra-defensively according to talk sport so if (when) we concede

Owen up front on his own, Smith in MF more defensive role with Butt apparently.

Forced move, but Im glad to see the midfield like that without Barton.

Couple of key games for us there like. Also tomorrow Sunderland v Everton, 15:00 Tottenham v West Ham, 15:00 Wigan v Arsenal, 16:00

Good or bad, we could have done with her strong leadership in recent years rather than become the yank/euro puppet we have.

Juno - I actually thought it canny. Easy to watch/follow, cant recall the lasses name but thats a couple of her films Ive seen her in and liked her role. Got a couple to watch over the weekend still. There will be blood & No country for old men.

Yup.

This brings up the next question, why do girls throw funny? I assume it may be back to the breasticle issue again?
