v Portsmouth (a) - 29/3/2025

[Bethnal]

Extremely straightforward day at the office for Portsmouth. Not many of them broke a sweat.

If 149 candidates were worse than this, I’ll be staggered.

Just now, had.e.nuff said:

what is the worst start for any manager at Rover considering most managers come in to a struggling side not one sat  in the top6.

It’s important to point out that Ismael took over a top 6 team and had the most generous possible run of fixtures!

Well that didn't take long. We struggle to score so it's likely game over

One point from 15 for the genius Ismael

☹️

[OldEwoodBlue]

That was utterly clueless.

Next seasons going to be horrendous

After 43 years with a ST, I am actively considering not renewing in order to support NAPM until these fuckers finally leave our club.

[davulsukur]

We all knew we were losing this. 

Absolutely fucking horrific appointment. Down next season with this clown in charge, 12 players leaving and no money spent.

[Andy]

That is absolutely dire.

Another very, very poor side made to look mediocre as a result of our own 'performance'.

As I said earlier, no plan and no strategy. The players have no patterns of play or direction; they look lost on the pitch.

This is unacceptable.

[neophox]

Better give it to Damien Johnson until the end of season....can't be worse...season already done...

[Ferrit]

Are we rock bottom of the form table yet?

[West Yorks Rover]

Last 6 games  LDLLLL

Down to 11th.

Sack the manager

Sack the board

Venky's Out

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

Getting shitter by the week. 

What a fucking toothless performance that was.  Pompey keeper didn't have a save to make second half. 

[DE.]

Big Val and the players continue to apply pressure to the owners and upper management by repeatedly putting in the most turgid performances imaginable. Cheers lads.

How grim is it that any hope of potting a manager who isn't up to it is redundant under these clowns. Won't pay them off so we are stuck with whoever is the manager no matter what. Shit show.

Ismael will get the sack...not his fault he was appointed.

The blame lies on Waggot and Pasha and the others higher up.

he won`t be getting sacked anytime soon,i predict it will be next december when we are adrift at the bottom of the league,i was`nt happy with his appointment but i did`nt foresee it being as bad as this,especially given the run of fixtures we`ve had

Not a chance. 

They will run his contract down. He's here for 3 years.

Results aren't important when your owners don't even know you're playing.

No he won’t. That will cost money. 

The situation will become untenable though between him and the fans (it likely has already)

Us and QPR have worst record over last 5 games.

Every Ismael performance has been the same. He is a total waste of time. Shockingly bad appointment.

That's the only positive in all this.

We're mathematically safe and in their haste to get ahead of the negative PR around Eustace leaving for a smaller club in dire straits they've appointed an absolute turd of a manager and given him a long contract.

JDT and Eustace kept the heat off Waggott, Suhail and the Venkys because they were performing miracles. Ismael has turned the spotlight back on them. 

[Gamst]

On the plus side. We have made the relegation race a lot more interesting! It will only be fair if we give Luton 3 points in a couple of weeks too!

Maybe we could crowd fund his severance package??
