The latest Pompey news, updates every day from the Pompey Sound News Desk.
We begin today's Pompey Sound News Bulletin with something slightly different, a competition. It's a football-type competition, and it's this. I recently sent off for a replacement set of FIFA red and yellow cards. They're very handy to have in the car in case you see somebody driving not so well, maybe cycling not so well, maybe even crossing over in front of you and making you slow down and so they're pedestrianizing not very well. You need somebody else in the car with you to do this. You can't do it yourself. You probably could, but it might attract the attention of the law because you might not be driving with your full care and attention. But if you see somebody who needs a yellow card or a red card, okay, and you've got somebody in the car with them, you tell them, wind your window down and brandish the yellow.
And when it happens, I promise you, everybody falls about. And it's a joke well made and well taken, but nevertheless, a point comes across. So... I've got in front of me a plastic leatherette black wallet, which has got a pencil and a sleeve and some forms that you fill in at the end of the game with the team's name and their colours, the score and details of any player who was cautioned or dismissed. but most of all you get an authentic solid waterproof yellow card the right size and shape of course and ditto a red card now I sent off for one of these but as sometimes happens I got charged for one but I received four So I've got three outstanding. So I'm giving away three sets of FIFA red and yellow cards to a Pompey Sound news bulletin, podcast or streaming listener.
All you have to do is send me an email to the studio at radiopompey at gmail.com and we'll have a little prize draw. So if you want in and you fancy having yourself an authentic set of FIFA red and yellow cards, nice little talking point, you can take it down the pub. And if you don't like what somebody's saying, you don't say I disagree with you, you pull out a yellow. And if they do it again, they second yellow and they're out. They're off. It's a nice little joke. It really works every single time. And you can have it. So the first three out of the hat. And if you want to be in the hat, just send me an email saying, I want to be in the hat for the cards. It's Radio Pompey. One word, of course, at gmail.com.
Former Portsmouth defender Nathan Thompson has been reflecting on Pompey's attacking issues during their 1-0 loss to Hull City on Saturday and thinks the problem lies with positioning. When you were seeing the ball going wide, the bodies in the box, it tended to be just Colby Bishop in there, Thompson told BBC Radio. That becomes very easy as a defender to mark if you've only got one guy to worry about. When you are getting in the wide areas, you need bodies in the box, and that just wasn't happening on Saturday. The loss means the gap between Portsmouth and the relegation zone remains a nerve-wracking five points. However, Thompson is not worried about the side's potential for survival. The manager will be disappointed from Saturday but ultimately he will go, there's certain stuff we can work with here that will give us a real chance, he said.
Two weeks ago the back-to-back wins gave them a really good opportunity in many ways.
Couple of points here. First of all, that was part of a broadcast. I think they call it a podcast. I think the one that they call Who Needs Mourinho? So a couple of points. First of all, on Who Needs Mourinho? Did you know? And I only found this out on Saturday. That is a chant which was begun 20 years ago when he started playing for Brentford. Because Brentford and Chelsea, well, Brentford obviously are looking upwards a lot, but nevertheless were jealous of Chelsea. And there was a kind of a rivalry there. So they started chanting, when John started playing for them, who needs Mourinho, we've got Moussinho. So that's the first thing. The second thing, and this is the most important thing, is that Nathan Thompson's absolutely right.
