@patmurphybbc Stokes not consistently fit, getting on a bit and too tied to McCullum and Key both of whom should have gone. Made us a laughing stock

@AnnieChave The awful decision deserves all the derision it gets. It is like much else in our society at the moment - incompetent people and institutions thrive while being vastly overpaid while ordinary people suffer from their mistakes

The comments on this BBC article aren’t too pretty. I think people feel like the team went rogue & asked us to judge them on The Ashes… It seems that’s what people are doing. bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/…

@Don2starr Time on Ice for each player on the individual game pages, not quite the official lineup from the game sheet but will let you know who played and for how long

It's now been a month since I first posted eihl.brenz.co.uk, now over 1000 people have used the site and some great suggestions and feedback! I wonder if any teams are using the stats

After watching Pompey contrive to lose 6-1 to an average QPR , you have to ask where 10-12 more points are coming from. A repeat of today’s defending , goalkeeping , and finishing will lead to League One fairly quickly. The two week break to re-set is needed.

@mrandrewmoon @solentsport Simply disgraceful. I have followed them since the early 1950s and it has to be one of the worst days (and there have been quite a few!). Sad, simply very, very sad

Horror show from #Pompey at Loftus Road. Hammered by a mid table side. Worst defensive display of the season by some distance. Selection wasn’t right but even so those playing had to be better. Some serious soul searching required #bbcfootball @solentsport

Who do our fans expect we'll get to replace Mousinho? Do people forget we got Mousinho because he was the cheap option, we got lucky he took league one by storm and sent us up with a mid table budget. Some fans are so fickle it's unbelievable #pompey

@PompeyPedro Disagree. The manager has no tactical awareness at all and the team generally lacks energy. Something massively wrong

The base squad in summer was ok, with maybe 8 properly Champ quality players Hughes/Cullen in the boardroom have demonstrated decent nous on and off pitch at times Mous has performed miracles, regularly. Just missing proper on pitch investment (less Waddingham, more Adams)
Pompey Pedro@PompeyPedro

Tornante have taken us as far as they can with their model They’ve done some good stuff for this Football Club and the vision (sustainable/debt free) is admirable and worked in L1, but doesn’t work like that in Champ I’ve lost trust in their ability to adapt to that reality🔵

This right winger would be worth £120m today. He won two title medals , was capped by England and scored all 5 one night in a 5-2 Portsmouth win over Aston Villa.

@mrandrewmoon If you refer to Yang your comment puts a lot of spin on the position. I guess Pompey are a bit of a laughing stock at the moment. Yang had more energy and skill than many of his team mates but simply wasn’t used. I simply don’t get the team management/coaching.

For #Pompey this frees up a space in the 25 man squad, a loan spot and an overseas spot so some useful January flexibility

Minhyeok Yang’s #Pompey loan is over. He’s been recalled by Spurs As a final touch in Blue, the one against Charlton wasn’t bad

@pn_jordan_cross Well put JC. Mousinho out of his depth. Someone better than him has to re-energise the squad. What an awful way to start 2026

A truly shameful opening to 2026 as Pompey run up the white flag in shocking fashion. Big questions over the impact this has on the Championship season and John Mousinho’s tenure after a Ashton Gate horror show. portsmouth.co.uk/sport/football…

@mrandrewmoon @solentsport There aren’t words to describe that abject display. No energy or ideas. Radical change in all areas required and that includes owner and manager. What a dismal way to start 2026 and Ipswich next!!

An absolutely horrendous showing. If Bristol City were more ruthless and less selfish in front of goal it could have been more. #Pompey simply can’t compete at this level without so many key players. No excuses for being so poor defensively #bbcfootball @solentsport

A damaging defeat for #Pompey, allowing a very average looking Swansea side to move 6 clear of them. A game of little attacking quality at either end of the pitch, 1 goal always likely to be enough. Concerning times #bbcfootball @solentsport

@adarkelimited You and many others are making Bishop a scapegoat. The team is very poor, creates nothing and completely lacks energy and endeavour. There is no point picking one player. The manager and coaches have to take responsibility. M seems so diffident and has lost the players

Attempt at a balanced view on Bishop: will rightly take his place in pompey folklore, brilliant signing for 500k, key part of promotion winning team, excellent character and the way he bounced back from heart surgery was incredible but not a champ striker. Fair or not?

@pn_jordan_cross That was, once again a terrible display. Timid sideways & backward passing, even those 'safe' passes were going astray. Slower than the opposition, 2nd best to 2nd balls & almost no attacking threat. Almost zero positives. So yes, the customers deserve better from the club.

@eespeebee @pompeylive Unfair comment as he is getting no service whatsoever. Midfield creativity non-existent. Could say more but the team’s deficiencies are much too great. By the way what was Poole doing with that goal?

@mrandrewmoon @solentsport Time for change. Ugly depressing first half. No energy, no creativity whatsoever, no pressing. Awful. Very hard to watch too many games like that. I seem to be in a minority but management change is required

#Pompey paid the price for a dreadful opening 25 minutes. Huffed and puffed in the second half and made a few opportunities but couldn’t break Bristol City down. Now just 4 points from the past 9 matches #bbcfootball @solentsport

@mrandrewmoon @solentsport Doesn’t make other things redundant. All round that was a dismal performance all over the pitch. Poor squad but the manager and his coaching staff must take complete responsibility for that performance. Pompey could have played all night and not scored. Hopeless performance

You can pick lots of holes in that performance but if you can’t defend set pieces it makes many other aspects redundant. 2 Sheff Utd goals from 5 corners in 54 minutes and no way back. Needs to be fixed urgently, feels like it’s got worse #bbcfootball @solentsport
