Ric Flair

Hope so, whilst he's really struggled this season we need the options of Mavididi/Monga/Fatawu as we've fcuk all goals elsewhere really bar James.

Never know whether its better to play one of the perceived stronger sides after the international break who'll have had a lot of players away on international duty than a club like Pompey who are likely to have had the nucleus of their 1st team together for the last 2 weeks.

Isn't Mavididi out for a while?

The only game we were ahead that we have drawn was Wrexham. All the others we went behind in and equalised.

If that were to be the case, why didn't we sell anyone in June?

I highly doubt we'd be 7 points clear of 3rd this season, I think we're a 83-85 point team this season so play offs IMO.

I'm the same mate. Got Leicester Half on 26th and have been in bed since Saturday. This happened to me in February and I ended up not being able to run one of my races but did one two weeks after and was OK. So fingers crossed by next week we'll both be sound. You won't lose much fitness but a shake out run will be needed to get back in to it.

Yeah I think it's one of the very few decent things about our home game experience.

I base this on the likelihood that another strong season for a promotion chasing club with his profile and skill set and the fee rockets. Look at what Ben White went for after a year at Leeds in the Championship on loan from Brighton.

Nibble a bit off a polo and wear it like a nose ring a bull would have. Elite performance enhancing drug.

I'm going through one of those phases where i'm doubting everything. Had some whiffy illness several weeks ago that didn't really come out properly and so instead just felt low level excrement for weeks now. I have all symptoms of being in an IBD flare (severe fatigue, inflammation in joints, sore eyes) except the main one - liquid squits. So I don't think I am having one but somethings not right. Went out and did 14km earlier and took too much effort for the pace I like to run at, was stupid to do so and been laying on the sofa all day since. Hmmmmm not ideal

Hopefully Hutchinson now gets more U21 minutes

We're at risk of failing to utilise a massively valuable future asset in Nelson, thats the bottom line. Even putting his obvious skill set aside, where he's got everything you'd want out of a modern defender in a possession based team, it's an illogical decision. Another strong season at this level in a promotion chasing team and there's a high likelihood he signs a new deal and we've protected a £30-40m valued player. Not doing so, whilst persevering with two defenders with no future at a higher level, just seems all round poor thinking. There's a growing chance that Nelson leaves here on the cheap, as he won't want to commit his long term future here and yet we've rejected bids last summer from Premier League clubs. Such a strange impasse.

Likely to be Boston or Newport

Hahahaa this is the thing, it's a whole different sport past 15 miles IMO. You get your fueling wrong, even at a really steady pace and you're in a world of bother. I did a 20 miler in the spring at a sedantry 10 min a mile pace and the 15-18/19 miles were absolutely horrid. Battling with my mind constantly until I sensed home and then was alright again.

How many weeks should you give yourself for marathon training from a base fitness of regularly doing half marathons? I've got 2-3 half marathon races left this year but doing a 30 miler in memory of my mum at the end of March which I want to then use as the springboard for a sub 4 hour marathon thrash in April/May before it gets too hot. Bare in mind i've never ran further than 20 miles so it is a big step up for me.

Absolute machine pal, top work

Ayew with a goal and two assists 😂😂😂 You have to question what system Central African Republic must have played for that to have transpired. Abdul played 70+ mins

My concern is, he's had two glorious chances to open his account early on in his time here and that would have helped him settle down and hopefully build some confidence and form. The longer it goes on without him scoring could easily scupper any positive impact he has here, seen it time and time again with loan players - especially strikers.

Close to being sorted mate

I always saw him as a Winks understudy, similar type of midfielder.

The Braybrooke redemption arc is going to hit like a tower of freshly microwaved Chicago Town pizzas. I'm here for it.

If we have an option then we have control of the situation.

Sweet dreams are made of Keith's

Despite about 80% of the U21s not in the squad, Hutchinson still only on the bench. Beyond bizarre.
