When it rains it pours. Olayinka sent off after 4 minutes, deemed a high boot although the Peterborough player stooped about a yard down. Was stomach height at worst. Nice to know the refs are still as shambolic as we are.
Obviously I hope we can get a point or 3, or even score a goal, but either way sadly Wade needs to go. You know it's an untenable situation when even JP is saying he should go.
First time all season I can say we've been the better side - and by some distance too, although Barnsley had a good last 5/10 mins and hit the inside of the post.
We just need a bit of luck in front of goal.
We've gone 3-4-3 with 3 out-and-out STs. More or less the same team as Pompey which was our best performance and only point so far. Will today be the day we finally score a goal??
Well that's a very good point for us in one of the more bizarre games I've seen, ending with a (qualified) Pompey fan running one of the lines. Defensively we are solid and were rarely troubled, we just have no attacking spark whatsoever. We're supposedly after a CB, MF and ST to finish off the...
Our home form will decide whether or not we stay up - we're unbeaten in our last 8 at home in the league but we'll need to carry that on if we're to survive.
Curtis Davies will be back from suspension and hopefully Will Ferry will be back from injury, but we still need a few more signings to...
Our local journo, who is very rarely wrong, reporting that Gillingham are in pole position to sign Alfie May.
He really should be going to a top end L1/Championship team but money talks and it's close to home, so makes sense for him on a personal level. I'm just glad we won't have to play...
Likewise, thought he was one of our most consistent players last season and must have had a fair few assists. Two RWBs needed now.
Expecting Rob Street to be announced today, the first of what will need to be quite a few signings.
I've been wondering this. When did it become the norm to have massive pitch invasions just for reaching a final? Should be reserved for promotion/winning the title/avoiding relegation on the final day. Although as you say last night was a bit different, I'd have been on the pitch if that was us.
