[Archived] Vs. Portsmouth Preview

[roverfanuk]

Ince wont get the sack... He should though...

[Sysagent]

Robo looks to the bench for a response to go up for the free kick...

Ince and backroom staff look vacant and clueless as to what to do, give them their suitcases and kitbags and stick them all on the next train, that's what they can do.

[BRFC1995]

how many games did sunderland go without a win, could set a record this year. past seasons teams like charlton go 7 or 8 games without a win, NINE games is terrible form gone go your rubbish leave don't let the door hit you on the way out your not welcome.

[Rovermatt]

Right that's it. The club can no longer afford to keep its head in the sand. Ince must go now!

[tony gale's mic]

Just wondering now if Ince will be given mush more time to mess up the team even further.

Fixed it for you.

[Mr Maureen]

Totally agree,Nelson has been poor for some time now.

Hello Simon,any chance that you can get rid of the embarassing photo, 30 years after the event,its gone,draw a line under it,move on.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Never mind boys 'n' girls just another two hammerings off Utd and Liverpool on the horizon....great isn't it!

[roverfanuk]

Que Ince saying we played well throughout. Poor defending for their 3 goals. We showed passion to get back to 2-2. Missed chances... 2 goals disallowed ruined it for us...

blablabla...

[chocky]

For the first time I feel we are going to be relegated..Maybe it won't be so bad...a big club in a smaller league...

[thenodrog]

According to the radio Derbs has changed this game, his pace and movement causing Distin all sorts of problems.

Thats his only strength. He's usually ineffective when on from the start.

I predicted in Aug we'll need to score 3 to win and unfortunately it's coming true.

[BRFC1995]

Get me the phone really need a rant on national radio.....wheres the 606 number, INCE OUT

[thenodrog]

boards under pressure......posted twice

[2k.]

Gutted, absolutely gutted.... I really believe that we're going down now.... I feel sick

[Wiggy]

Shocking defending for all three goals. What's Winterburn doing all week . Enough is enough now. If Williams doesn't have the cojones to do what's needed now, the party's well and truly over.

[Amo]

Let's face it, it's a sorry state of affairs when we have to let two goals in before we start to play. We used to be a team that others begrudgingly respected for being tight and difficult to beat. Now ANYONE can score against us!

I'm sorry, but no more excuses. No deluded fans coming here asking to give Ince more time. How much time do you want!? We're going down unless we act swiftly and decisively, and install a manager who can take us back to basics. We're only heading one way with this flimsy f**king football.

You'll be lucky. The woes at Rovers are about as interesting to 606 as our successes - not at all.

[brfc4ever]

I would bet my entire bank account on him being there for the Liverpool game.

I'm not even angry right now, just feeling empty. Yes, it is only a game, but I put so much damn emotion into following my beloved club and seeing this is too much to bare. It is bad enough knowing that we have to constantly 'punch above our wait' whilst all my friends either support Man Utd and have success or Citeh who are going places and buying everyone in the world. Not that I'd swap Rovers for anyone, just in all my years following them, I am completely fed up of football. Sometimes, I feel like I'd be better off taking up golf or something, since Football in general for me feels like that girlfriend everyone ionce had that you love so much and care for and she just keeps sheeting on you from a great height and you just take it.

I'll probably be well up for watching the game on wednesday and this is just the post match depression I have been getting for much of this season!

[RoverRich]

For the first time I feel we are going to be relegated..Maybe it won't be so bad...a big club in a smaller league...

Yeah we might actually win plenty of games and be at the top of the league...................and lose all our decent players and loads of money

Annoyed that there is an easy way out for Ince. He can just blame the officials for their mistakes instead of realising how crap he is and how useless he has made us.

[sharptommy]

sounds like they did better than at tottenham, least they bagged a couple

[tony gale's mic]

Even at 2-2 it seemed too good to be true. Our defence is truly shocking.

[LeChuck]

If we, as fans, could keep Allardyce out of the job then we can damn well get Ince out of it.

We took a gamble with Ince, it was a brave decision but it has completely failed. Admit the mistake now, whilst there's still time, and this time next year we could again be in the top half. It's exactly what has happened with Bolton and Wigan, and both deserve it for their swift and decisive action.

[RevidgeBlue]

Gutted.

Sounded like another good performance but yet again you can't expect to win if you concede 3 goals.

Be interesting to see the goal chalked out for an alleged foul on James at 2-2. Could well have been the turning point. Sounds like Derbyshire finally getting a chance in his proper position almost swung it for us.

Simon Garner on Radio Lancs on Derbyshire's introduction:

"Nothing against McCarthy but Derbyshire will look interested."

Get shut of Benni in Jan and get some money in. And he can take Ooijer with him.

He's right, they couldn't care less about us, infact most of the national media will be loving it. They have love ins with a lot of clubs and our isn't one of them, just look at Spuds coverage, the tabloids covered 2 full pages on them when they were inbetween managers, we'll get a small column, well hidden under some miracle hair growth treatment.

[vintageadidas]

Good second half after conceeding the 2 Portsmouth goals. It takes us 2 goals to start the game, not good at all.

In my opinion Pedersen should have put his foot, head, body anything infront of Sean Davis! He whimped out of it and we lose the game.

Derbyshire changed the game. He was VERY UNLUCKY to have his second goal disallowed. I could not see a foul worth blowing for.

The team looks very disjointed at the moment.

I cannot believe that Papa Diop ran from the half way line to our 18 yard box without a challenge as nobody could catch him, he hits a shot that Robbo saves and we have numerous chances to clear it but we dont and conceed the third.

MASS EXODUS JUMPING SHIP IN JANUARY.
