Probably be a team packed with kids and Linvoy as skipper. But wait for team news Dave.

eastneydave

I'm guessing there will be at 5 players that have never played for us in the Premiership.

PompeyFrippy

bet theirs a few trialists with names like jones and smith... what was that one we had that time.???

pompeyhussler

my moneys on ritchie to score...

pompeyhussler

Someone called Amdy Henry? Maybe a Ben Gianni, or Kack Ah?

PompeyFrippy

great to hear the quay back on ... lets hope they get the games for the whole season..

pompeyhussler

Dave be serious now you know as well as I do we will play harts favoured 10-1 formation with mullins ( he loves Paul) as the one to go forward to the edge of the box - our penalty box! Joking apart you would expect a low key 442 start wouldn't you?

russellm

Distin playing, good omen?

paultsmouth

Pompey are trialing a bloke let go by Crewe!!

paultsmouth

Anyone who missed it, different side for each half. For the first half we'll play;- Begovic, Wilson, Kaboul, Distin, Basera (trialist), Basinas, Mullins Hughes, Kranky, Richie, Nugent....2nd half.. Ashdown, Ward, Linvoy, Audel (trialist), Hurst, Mbamai, Diop, Bopp(trialist), Cowen-Hall, Subotic, Pincrante(trialist)

PompeyFrippy

maybe so, as people know im not that 'fond' of distin but i do not think we can afford to lose him and sol, so hope we keep him and altho i am not convinced he is 'captain' material, maybe we should make him the captain to try and make that 'we want you to stay' clearer... he clearly like hart, so 'should' be happy with that?
what is the team - not got the quay on yet.

pompeyrug

cheers Frippy, is this team sheet listed anywhere? m'bai is that marsielle guy isnt he and is bopp, is that eugene bopp, who i am sure used to play for forest? formerly with bayern munich tho... but way back in something like 2000.

pompeyrug

i like the way they said we are playing 4-3-3 in both halfs ... dont they mean 4-5-1 i think pompey have payed the quay off to not give more negativity about pompey..

pompeyhussler

That's the guy rug, that Audel is from some french club I think, and Pincrante (not sure how it's spelt) is from PSG, I think.

PompeyFrippy

Umm interesting teams I'll have the radio on but have to do some work so won't be on 'live' too much but keep me in touch with your comments fellas

Chix

Play up Havent! I'm gunning for Joel Ward - knew him at school!

haigh_for_7

Where's Mokoena!? How many of the "trialists" do you think are among the 3 or 4 signings hinted at Storrie today?

Pompeysweden

I doubt any of the trialist are among the plyers lined up. they should have nothing to prove. These should be players released by clubs and recommended by the clubs scouts.

eastneydave

Well I cant get the quay radio to work, it must be too busy so you will have to keep me up to date with running commentary

sneakay

Damn it Chix, everytime I hear Mokoena's name mentioned I think of your catchy song.

PompeyFrippy

Can't get the Quay working, how pants is that?

pentonpompey

cannot get it either sneaks, ******** gutted!

pompeyrug

And now I can't get the virgin media advert in the corner of this page to SHUT UP! How annoying.

sneakay

No Internet signal methinks. Will try the redio at least I live in Pompey.

eastneydave

i, like so many am 'listening blind' guys, so those that are picking it up can you keep us updated with what is going on...

pompeyrug

Thought it was just me down here in Cornwall.. no internet quay..zilch

cornypomp

So are we attacking wave after wave of penetrating expansive beautiful football?

pentonpompey

I expect so!!

eastneydave

Come on guys give us an update. Any trialists looking good?

sneakay

I'm with you Sneaks, some one shut that F@*king Virgin advert up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Time to turn the sound off, and have a beer...

pentonpompey

Ha ha Penton....'Manchester United needed to go to Wigan.....' Doesn't she have a droning voice.

sneakay

Having recently moved to Waterlooville, I hope for a good game all. Sadly not able to be there.

storagematt

you do realise that you can mute the sound on the virgin player, right? i know it might be annoying, but its things like that that are needed on there wouldnt be any vital pompey would there...
so whats the crack anyway, any score yet - anyone sounding good, sounding bad, sounding indifferent...

pompeyrug

0-0 after 30 minutes - no chances to report. Still no news on whether the Quay will get a licence to broadcast games in the future although they are aware of the petition. No news on whether Brian Kidd will get the #2 job to Hart.

Goal flashes will be on Sky Sports News. That's it from me as I am off out. Sorry guys.

eastneydave

The mute button doesn't work Rug that's the problem. I understand it keeps the site running, but it should be working properly.

Come on guys, help us out. What's happening?

By the way is anyone going to the game on Saturday?

sneakay

I've got no advert, occasionally I get a bit that says 'This advert cannot be shown in your territory'. I'm quite glad now.

PompeyFrippy

well i never, as i always have the sound off i didnt realise that the mute didnt work - it is bloody annoying isnt it! you cannot even pause it can you... i will have a word about this!
yep, im going on saturday sneaks, you?

pompeyrug

the forrest fans are in stitches on their vital site...appaerrently we have offered a £mil plus for one of their duffers....A crewe reject as well...and Eugene Bopp, surely not.

plymouth graham

My mute works, message for Rug in Private section

paultsmouth

Some wiki info on these trialists, not much but something

Bhasera
Audel
Bopp
Pancrate

pompeyrug

Why doesn't the link for the trialist called pompeyrug work?

PompeyFrippy

For some reason I thought the game was tomorrow night Rug, but yes I will be going as it is so close. Will be good to meet up again.

So Pancrate is a striker who has only scored 18 goals in 10 years. Must be good then.

sneakay

any info on signing new signings or the budget we have?? ...

pompeyhussler

any news on crouch or distin??

pompeyhussler

Bouba Diop to crack home a 89th minute winner from 35 yards, to give us a valuable 3 points, which'll put us top of the league.

PompeyFrippy

Sneakay pancrate has played on the wing for the last couple of years.He recently went to burnley thinking he had a medical but didnt realise it ws a trial lol

Football_Casual

Having read that lot on Wiki, I hope they only got a game tonight because they happened to be going down the M27 in a minibus that broke down, and Hart stopped on his way to the game to give them a hand noticed their boots and offered them a run out in exchange for changing their spark plugs!

pentonpompey

All the trialist are complete rubbish the guy Bhasera plays for Kaizer chiefs, if this is the four we are signing soon we are royally screwed lol Should be a laugh this season, eugene Bopp lol

pom165

lol penton! i can hear the commentary now, 2-0 up with bopp scoring 2 i think?

pompeyrug

pompeyrug u serious ? hart better not sign bopp this is a joke right ?

Football_Casual

Any news on tonights game? Have we a new kit on, or are we playing in skins?

sneakay

no belhadj?

SUAC51

quay online is working now for those that havnt been able to listen yet.

pompey--pessimist

2-2

sneakay

lol 2-2 now ...

pompey--pessimist

You just have to laugh don't you?

pentonpompey

how have they come bk frm 2-0 down

PompeyFcMad

I think that the final triallist, Alota Fagina, is about to come on for Pompey

Highland_Pompey

talk of no money to spend we need to spend at least 10m we need players.. benjani oniel tuncay. gutierez

pompeyhussler

1st bad back pass from bopp, 2nd good play, bad defending

pompey--pessimist

ivana smashscum. hes just signed up

pompeyhussler

we need to spend big like we did in the season with muntari....etc. even if we tryed now we would be feilding a championship team with a few good players. kranjcar james.

pompeycook

did i say anything about signing bopp? all i said was he had scored 2 goals...

pompeyrug

2-2 FT

pompey--pessimist

And to think, this time last year I was getting all excited thinking about going back to Wembley for the Community Shield...Oh well...

pentonpompey

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Highland_Pompey

What was that all about then? caught the last 20 mins and expected to be at least 3-0 up ooh er!

cornypomp

what can we do, we have what we have - we have to accept what we have and just hope we bring in enough quality. why throw in the towel now?

pompeyrug

I've only just read the comments (not listened been working).. sounds like a fun game.. What's the overall verdict .. I'm suspecting panic ?

Chix

haha na chix give the bloke a chance to get in some players then if where still relying on players like bopp then start to panic =/

pompeym@

i didnt like the kit at all i thought it was very plain even if it had a sponser on it and was slightly old fashoned..

pompeycook
