Re: Pompey game
Not sure our midfield has won the ball off of them yet?
Worried about Thompson at Rb. I know there’s a love in for him on here but he is pedestrian and a massive downgrade on James.

Someone's sitting in my seat in the Legends Lounge seats. How dare he. I've paid to sit there for 14-15 seasons (forgotten how long it is since that stand opened).

Re: Pompey game
Pompey are better than us as they should be being in a league above us. It'll be a good workout for us.
Good goal from our pocket Irish dynamo.

Re: Pompey game
He's meant to be the utility backup we only need to use sparingly but these pre-season injuries are proving a big problemApple Wumble wrote: ↑Tue Jul 19, 2022 7:41 pm Not sure our midfield has won the ball off of them yet?

Re: Pompey game
And now a pen, Happe foul
We need to be easing Happe and Clay back in gradually but with this paper thin squad can see them being thrown in before they're fully back up to speed
1-4

Re: Pompey game
The word current is very pertinent given this summer so far. And the option instead of Clay is ColemanGary the Plumber wrote: ↑Tue Jul 19, 2022 8:15 pmNeither Clay or Happe are in our starting XI, even with current injury list.

Re: Pompey game
New 11 for Orient in 2nd half (team of kids plus Clay & Happe who are both way off the pace after returning from long injuries plus 2 trialists, just shows how thin our squad is and the lack of quality we have strength in depth.
I hope we get 3-4 players in before Grimsby game otherwise it’s going to be a long season.

Re: Pompey game
That's good as far as I'm concerned. But I've always been a fan of Craig Clay (as is Mrs NES). I am happy he's back playing already considering the injury he had. And I'm glad Happe is back playing too.

Re: Pompey game
That's what's telling more than scorelines. The "strong" XI looked poor aside from Smyth and Archibald. The reserve XI is a bunch of kids who look lost.Stan1972 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 19, 2022 8:17 pm New 11 for Orient in 2nd half (team of kids plus Clay & Happe who are both way off the pace after returning from long injuries plus 2 trialists, just shows how thin our squad is and the lack of quality we have strength in depth.

It's going to be a long season - July to May - longer than usual for us long-suffering supportersStan1972 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 19, 2022 8:17 pm New 11 for Orient in 2nd half (team of kids plus Clay & Happe who are both way off the pace after returning from long injuries plus 2 trialists, just shows how thin our squad is and the lack of quality we have strength in depth.

Re: Pompey game
I hope we're not effectively playing with 9 men when we get to play Grimsby . Need two or three new players ASAP because time is now running out . The big kick off is only 9 days away now .
