Good to see Venney get a spot on the bench rather than the pointless 3 centre back malarkey.

Change of goalkeeper for me and not sure about Jackson
But a very strong bench if it's not going our way!
A good home win against arguably the biggest team in he division could kick start us into a winning streak and making sure those extra town fans that are there today will return.
Seem to remember every time we had a bumper crowd with Hurst we flopped

Losing all the midfield battles. Summerfield & Berett dog excrement. We are playing in straight lines with no variation in our play. Been poor 😔
|
| In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions. Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them. GOD |

That was a bad half from town, we look poorly organised and the players don't seem to know where they should be. Summerfield and Berrett having shockers. Portsmouth really not showing a great deal against a very poor town side.

shape isnt working pompey have acres in the middle....when we do get the ball we are pressured straight away and a total lack of quality from any of our midfield isnt helping keep the ball. Pompey are slick...quick...strong and we are the polar opposite.... men v boys for first 45 but having said that they have not had a real goal threat. lucky to be 0-0...would be happy to see venney on second half cos the others dont deserve to stay on.

Agree with Moosey, Pompey totally outplaying us, and not giving us any time on the ball. Will be an interesting second half, wonder how good MB's half time talk will be?

Thats why i said mid table consolidation yet some expect miracles in another promotion 🙄
I dont think MB has much options to chose from especially in the middle of the park.
Disley Berrett
We need better players.

The worry is we are playing terribly in the 1st 45 everygame, is this the players not following instructions, or Bignot getting it wrong before we kickoff- someone also tell me what Jackson brings to our game

Feel sorry for MB trying to find he best 11 / formation rotating the team. Its probably causing disjointed performances. Only problem is he wont be able to offload many players as most are on 2 years.

Second best all game, although to be fair we defended well and McKeown only made one save of note (that I can remember). The free kick was a screamer and he had no chance. With the ball we were utterly clueless and I lost count of the misplaced passes that went out Findus side in the 2nd half (including one 20 seconds before their free kick was given). Taking our best midfielder off was strange and whilst I know some don't like Vose's 'body language' - him (and his knackered leg) standing on Beachy Head listening to Radiohead would've been more fucking use than Berrett today.

They were much sharper than us in all areas and we were hanging on for most. I said that either a mistake or a bit of magic would win it and the free kick was pretty special.

We need to remember that Portsmouth have an established team and almost got promotion last year. Not all GTFC players will last the season and we need to give the manager and players time.
Its not long ago that we beat the League Leaders 3-0 away from home. We may well get beaten by both Donny and Blackpool, but provided we beat Accrington on Boxing Day we could still be in the top half of the League going into 2017.
From a year ago, I would take that.

To not have a shot at home and not look threatening till we concede is terrible. To Portsmouth credit they came here and closed down and didn't give us a single minute on the ball. Omar was just left on his own with no support looked frustrated all afternoon. I thought the defence was solid all game and we got beaten by a delightful free kick worthy of winning any game. James Berrett is a liability of a player and was a passenger all game, seen nothing positive from him since he's come here and was a massive weak link today. The substitutions was way off the mark today aswell for me.

After 5 games and 2 weeks "double session" training I would have thought he would have been closer to finding is best side more than what today suggested.

All of that well spotted Ginny, I possibly need to tone it down a bit TBH but the Mrs has got the X Factor recording on the telly stopping me watching MOTD. You think she would have more care for my plight! I actually think the we have got quite a fair few pieces in our jigsaw hungry manager, o.k. playing squad, fans, attendances, merchandise revenue etc.. etc... just frustrated we can't take some time & thought to put it together properly! Also "us" last manager promised little but delivered in the end and maybe we should go back to that media strategy for a bit.

You're not missing much on MOTD. Just the 5 or 6 goals in every game so far.
