[dave the magic moron]

Absolutely pathetic again

[Brogue]

9 points off the playoffs
12 points above the drop

At one point in the game Exeter were winning and we were losing we were 1 point closer to the playoffs than to the drop zone.


When hunt was sacked we were 9 points off the playoffs and 2 points above the drop.

So despite Richardson being giving far more backing we are essentially 10 points better off.

[Hound]

Sounds a cracker

I think with Lane we brought him because he had one great season in div1 with Portsmouth

Problem is they were an outstanding team for the division and dominated games so he had loads of possession and options which he doesn’t have now

I imagine he looked a whole lot better than he actually is because Portsmouth were generally so good

Are you saying you think he should be sacked Brogue? Just trying to get it clear

I mean, we've had an atrocious injury list as well, not saying that's all bad luck, a lot of those who picked up injuries were already injury prone. Need a more consistently available squad next season.

[traff]

That sound very much like the last 3 Tottenham managers talking.

I think you can excuse maybe filling a squad with too many injury prone players when you've had to rebuild from near scratch as we did this season but make it a pattern, then there's something wrong with the recruitment.

[The Cap]

Said to a Pompey supporting mate that I thought the final score was 1-1. Didn't even check. Like somebody else on this thread, more interested in outcomes of Wet Sham & Spuds games..

Must not overlook the fact that Richardson himself has exacerbated the injury situation himself by 'wrestling' with the medical team and playing players who have not fully recovered from previous injuries - Marriott being the most recent case in point.

[AthleticoSpizz]

Listened to the game on BBCB whilst decorating one of the spare rooms today…..yeah ‘watching paint dry’ and all that.
Pre match they featured our star keeper, but had to bleep-out a lot of his comments because he was so wound-up.

Only caught bits of it, anyone know the back-story and what his beef was?

We always have an atrocious injury list. I can’t remember the last time we didn’t.

At least some proportion of injury proneness is down to preparation (or lack of), and strength and conditioning work.

All the outside noise and a player going to the local press disrupting the "family" in the dressing room, from what I could make out.

Ta, he certainly wasn’t happy was he?
Assuming he knows who that ‘player’ was

We always have an atrocious injury list. I can’t remember the last time we didn’t.

In recent seasons I've excused it because we seemed to be operating with two hands behind our backs but it can't really continue now.

Do we think it immediately gets better or is it more a gradual improvement?

Realistically, they're not just gonna off-load all the players that have reccurring injury problems but hopefully there is at least a bit of better planning involved going forward.
