Perhaps we were spoilt with Jeremy Wray, who I would have back at the drop of a hat, but he does come across as a dour sort of guy and I still have no idea how his diplomacy skills have helped us thus far or will in the future.

So Patey was bought in to enable Black et al bail out.
Seems a strange time for fairly new owners to want out with the team doing so well

RDV said on twitter that he wasn't feeling well and that probably explains his poor performance.
Yeah just saw that.

First half Pompey were terrible - and we matched them!! We just couldn't get to grips with their 3-5-2 system. Second half the subs made all the difference, suddenly we had energy and scored some good goals. Nice to see Roberts getting back to his old self, PDC got some big decisions to make now for Saturday. Fair play to the Pompey supporters were certainly outsung us, but their team were shit really.

Really enjoyed the second half.
Fantastic performance by Collins, and thought McCormack played well out of position, was it his ball to Ritchie that set up one of the goals because it was brilliant.
Great to have a huge crowd, hopefully they are encouraged to come back, shame about our atmosphere but the Pompey fans were brilliant.

I honestly didn't think the atmosphere was poor. At times it, was anything but. And you have to remember that there were something like 9,800 home fans there today - a great figure, even for New Year's Day. So the proportion of non-regulars higher than usual.

Steve Claridge was at the game today, bet he still won't have much good to say about us.

I am no finance expert so this could get shot down in flames ....
When Black and co brought the club and paid off the debts would they have paid off the bills and put the money the coughed up on the clubs balance sheet as a long term liability owed to themselves?
Also in order to bring in financing for the new stadium Patey said a while back he was trying to get Wray/Fitton to write off debt owed to them. Would it need Black to write off a large sum due to himself?
I just reckon this new stadium is a mile off!
Might be very wrong (I hope I am)

Terrific second half showing today. Delighted for Collins and its amazing what control Ferry gives us. Without him in the first half we were going back to the long ball crap.
I've been to 3 matches over the xmas/new year period. Our 2 games and the Arsenal 7 Newcastle 3 game .. 3 games 20 goals ..Not a bad return.
Big word up for the pompey fans. I went to Uni there in their Halcyon days and they are a great bunch. Thought the your going bust chants were a bit off as it only really made me think of how close we were a few years back!

Pompey's game plan was to frustrate us and then try to nick one, like all our home defeats this season.
Once we went 1 up, they had to change Plan A, it opened up and the rest, as they say is history.
We've got a nice goal difference at the moment. (+24 after 24 games)

Damn these 5-0 victories! What we really needed was a goal difference of +1 in every game.
