I had a successful bet on Blackburn at Pompey, one of my best friend's knows the Walker family & is very well connected with life at Ewood Park.
They are very optimistic with the potential of their squad.
There's nothing I want more, (apart from the mighty reds winning the league), than to see Pompey staying up.
However the lack of activity in terms of squad strenghtening during the summer has got to be a major negative.
I think the numbers are 5 players out and 8 in, that's really cutting things to the bone relative to the squad's depth re the Premiership.
I was hoping a new 'keeper woud be a target but sadly not, although no reason to have any doubt in 'arry's judgement.
Losing two points at Highbury courtesy of a myopic ref may well be very painful come May, ditto not taking the win at Wolves.
The first choice eleven is a match I think for any team at Fratton Park, but already Berger is out for a month.
Amdy Feye looks the dogs bollocks, not so sure about Yakubu at this level, although his running makes me feel knackered just watching him.
Hoping he'll get a bit of Teddy's quality in front of the onion bag.
If there's any justice Milan will find some big money under his Christmas tree for 'arry to wheel n' deal come January.
It would be a travesty if the blues went down for lack of 2 or 3 players, or the 2 points the filthy cheese eating surrender monkey, Pires stole from the super blues.
Next game's gonna be a massive scrap at the hell-hole commonly known as Birmingham
If they get a draw it'll be a major, massive magnificent BIG balls result.
Cmon you blues
