Ok, I’ll never ever sever my tether.

May 20 is Bee Day. (it really is, but, get it?)

I won’t be drawn into pulling you up on the the wrong “stationery” though that reminds me, I need to buy some envelopes ✉️

What precisely, dear fellow, is it that you are dothing to your cap?
I sir, am intrigued.  🤓
 
 
 

Lose? I never get that one right. 

Definitely no penalty. Saka looking for a foul there

You sir, are suffering from Ramnesia.
A very specific form of memory loss affecting Derby County fans who regularly forget the true meaning of the Derby Way, which is for the club to instill hope and optimism in its supporters despite a long and consistent track record of disappointment.
I jest of course, we're going to win 4-0 and sell Kwaku Oduroh for £11m in the off season...

Yes I have a soft spot for Pompey. Was at HMS Collingwood a very long time ago. Ah memories……

Bearing in mind I  missed the Bolton game due to "Other stuff", I've gotta say, I thoroughly enjoyed this afternoon!
The walk in the sunshine to get there.  The queues at the turnstiles at 14:48.  The grit, determination and effort on the pitch.  The atmosphere from all points of the compass stands.  The cracking view of a cracking goal.  The relief at the final whistle.  The post-whistle celebrations on and off the pitch.  Heck, even the drenching from the 5 minute hailstorm on the way home!
No.  It wasn't a classic.  But it was bloody enjoyable, and I think every single one of us deserved that, after last week's all round poor output.
By jove... I do believe we're on our way... To the Championship, we're on our way...

I thought we had always been told what a speed merchant he was 🤷‍♂️?

When can I start singing "forest going down with a fiver in the bank"? 

Fellow Pompey rating here. HMS Mercury then the Ark.

I hope that’s not a euphemism. If it is, you should get some ointment.

Thinking back, we’ve probably had only about 6 games when we’ve played really well and looked like promotion hopefuls. The rest of the games we have, though won, looked quite poor with just flashes of excellence. With our injuries piling up, it’s so difficult to be optimistic. Where’s B4 when you need him………

Four billion years from now, the increase in Earth's surface temperature will cause a runaway greenhouse effect, creating conditions more extreme than present-day Venus and heating Earth's surface enough to melt it. By that point, all life on Earth will be extinct.
 
I actually think that sounds more appealing than our perennial final inning’s collapse. Roll on oblivion. 

Sir Galahad rescued a fair maiden from the clutches of an evil Baron. Together they rode away on his mighty steed until they came to a river. “Don’t worry” he told her. “We can jump the river”. “Oh good” she said “I could do with good knight’s leap”
 
 
 
I’ll get me coat……
 

Ah with a clear head I get it, and yes I am and yes she does

It may be that the two bottles of Malbec aren’t helping, but I don’t get it, hic!

Every day I get knocked down by the same bike. It’s a vicious cycle…

There are 3 frustrations really....
- our once rock-solid defence with umpty-three consecutive clean sheets seems a thing of distant memory.
- our manager repeating often made mistakes ie a midfield 2 including Hourihane
- our misfortune with injuries and because we haven't blooded any academy players how exposed the squad is

My expected goals were to expect some goals
