Can't help but start to think Banger is in trouble.

Our season is teetering on the edge of being down the toilet.

Very funny Jim...........knob!
Port were bloody pathetic today, they wern't playing for each other & were exposed by West in all departments.
How many times Port when in posession from defence especially kicked short to a 50/50 contest was unbelievable, when it wasn't to a 50/50 it was straight to a Westies player. :roll:
No "PRIDE" what so-ever shown today by the players once puting on that jumper.
I'd love to know what it means to them.
Obviously nothing coz thats what it looks like. :oops: :oops:

Now that is saying something if another club could possibly flood worse than West? :shock:

Was told that after the Norwood game Bamford flogged the group on the track .. Then this week heard from a mate who was told by one of the players that training this week had been the hardest he'd ever experienced.

Are they being overworked and falling flat on matchday?

We've fallen away badly in almost every game bar the Eagles win.
So I'm wondering whether it is more a factor of not being fit enough after preseason?

I guess they'll be getting another flogging this week and that'll continue until the HTFU!

The Bloods played a good game today, nothing better than smashing the Magpies!!!! Well done lads. Tough game on Friday night against Norwood who dont look like dropping a game.

Very much tongue in cheek, have a workmate who reads this forum regularly and he has been giving me crap for ages about Port winning the Cup

Good game of footy, Westies attacked the ball and the opposition like there was no tomorrow. Should have won by alot more but missed oppotunities going forward and in front of goal. Big test against Norwood this week but I am looking forward to the challenge.

Can not believe Port's season so far. I picked them to be the big improvers and challenge for a top three spot .... not the spoon !!!
