He did the same last season. He tends to sit with the coaches rather than the other subs

Parched?

I really enjoyed last night. Fratton Park is a proper football ground, the locals were noisy, great atmosphere. I thought we played some decent stuff - considering the gruelling run of fixtures and the injury list, we played some very decent stuff. A very good point on the road.

Hats off to McGoldrick. A classy performance and I don’t know how he lasted 87 minutes after playing a full game on Tuesday.

I’m in a Belgian bar / restaurant, drinking Kwak and eating mussels. Apologies to anyone sitting near me in Fratton Park, there will be an overpowering garlic smell and regular bouts of flatulence.

Bob, you’re an incredibly brave man / woman / badger.  It takes huge guts to admit you need help. You absolutely can and will do this mate.

I managed to kick a very nasty addiction and I’ve been clean for 4 1/2 years now.  I couldn’t have imagined that for a minute when I was in the throes of addiction. The hardest and most important decision I made by a mile was getting it out in the open.

It’s hard work Bob and it’s baby steps, but you will get through this. And you’ll be so much happier and healthier for it.  Good luck.

Rooney’s had a very solid game.

Wish Odoruh had got a direct assist with that header, it was superb! Lovely turn and finish from Didzy.

McGoldrick is such a classy player. But drag him off now please Mr. Warne. He’s done his bit.

Yeah, time for some changes.

Where’s Dobbin been hiding those tekkers???? Unbelievable.

That ball from Didzy has given me a massive stonk on.

Great first half, really convincing. Should be a good opportunity to make some changes now.

Brilliant from Osula and what a finish from Tommo. Was that his first goal?

Osula is rampant tonight.

Their season turned when Grealish came back from injury. 

Signing Mings in January helped as well.

Portsmouth tickets on general sale this morning at 10 o’clock,  417 tickets left from initial allocation.

Just got mine and the lad’s. Can’t wait, it will be our first away game this season.

Good lad Bradley.

It certainly is a good age to get to... but I can't help thinking it'd be damned frustrating, getting to within 17 months of the big 100, and a card from His Maj?  I wonder if folk give that a consideration, at such an age?  ?‍♂️

 

My grandfather did. The older he got, he spoke a lot about wanting a telegram from the Queen. He was 100 on 7th March this year and died on 7th May. He was definitely holding out for it.

I’m really hoping the Portsmouth tickets make it to general sale. I’ve booked a hotel (refundable if we don’t get tickets) and told the lad he’s got a dentist appointment that afternoon so has to leave school at lunchtime!

Excellent. That’s a pure Paul Warne goal - get it out wide, cross, finish.

I think the sea is out there somewhere. In foggy Babbacombe! 

 

Angie, you’re yards away from the best cream tea in Christendom. Angels Tea Rooms - just amazing. The fish and chips at Hanbury’s are pretty special as well.

Found out on Friday that I’ve got a charity place for the London marathon. I lost a very close friend in March. He had lived with MS for over 20 years and ended up in a wheelchair (although it was covid that got him), so I’m raising money for the MS Society.

I started running a couple of years ago and did the Birmingham half marathon in May. The furthest I’ve run is 15 miles but I think I’ll be ok. My worry is my body falling apart - I’m 47, I’ve had one knee operation and my back isn’t great! 

Really pleased I chose to go on Tuesday instead of today!

I penned this a few weeks ago

Feel free to print out and pass to friends and family as the words/names can easily be forgotten ?

 

I like it! Is it to the tune of Doctor Jones by Aqua?

Freedom of the City or a statue? Thank you Mr Clowes, forever grateful. #COYR

A song for him would be nice, not sure I’ve heard one yet (admittedly I’ve only been down 4 or 5 times this season).

My lad will be really gutted about this. We can’t get season tickets because he plays hockey for a club on Saturdays, so have to pick and choose games (we’re going tonight).  It’s a fair system to prioritise ST holders but he’ll be really disappointed.  Hope all of you going enjoy it and make a lot of noise.

Drat.
