days few hopefully knee past sent
Emile's knee has been aggravating him the past few days so we've sent him for a check. Hopefully it's nothing too serious.
carry few good hope last talent weeks
He was sensational and we all know what a talent he is. For the last few weeks he has started to play well again, which is very, very good for us and let's hope he can carry on doing that.
available days good hopeful injury normally possibly small strain
The good thing is we are more hopeful about Nicky Butt. His hamstring injury is not as severe. You are normally out for 10-14 days with a small strain and he possibly could be available for the Villa game.
deserve legs red
Nicky has flicked at him between the legs - but does that deserve a red card?
played pleased
I thought he responded like a man. There were no frills about it, but he played his part and I was pleased for him and with his performance.
future stop thankfully
Thankfully all the speculation surrounding Robbie's future can now stop here,
falling goes remarkably
He goes into the box, and does very well at falling over. Remarkably well
confident pull tough
It's going to be a tough winter, but I'm confident we can pull through.

That's the sad reality as far as hamstrings are concerned. We will have them assessed but you have to fear the worst.
club critics-and-criticism entitled owner respect
I'm disappointed by the owner's criticism. I don't think that should be aired in public. But he is the owner of the club and you have to respect what he says. He is entitled to his opinion.
happen proves wins
Portsmouth have had back to back wins so it proves anything can happen between now and the end of the season.
asked derby jamie
Derby asked to take Jamie but, at the moment, with the way we are and with the injuries, no-one is going anywhere.
