Roy's gone to Portsmouth ...

... shown watching the Pompey v Stoke match.
Presumably he wants to see if Stoke have changed anything in their playing style.

[Mr Fulham]

Or he watches James Beattie sitting on the bench for Stoke City.

Maybe he wants to look at some of the Pompey players. O'Hara, Finnan...

But watching Stoke will be the priority, no doubts.

How many other managers are there? And if there are a few does that mean that Portsmouth can sell players?

I only saw Roy, but as I haven't seen the whole match, I may have missed others in the crowd.

Fulham to offer O'Hara London stay


11:30 AM 18 February, 2010


Fulham Football Club are set to make an offer for Jamie O'Hara at the end of the season.

The talented midfield player has struggled to force his way into the Tottenham Hotspur side under Harry Redknapp, who still rates him as a player of real quality.

O'Hara has impressed during his season-long loan deal at Portsmouth to date, and he admits he may have to leave White Hart Lane on a permanent basis for regular first team football.

It is believed this something Roy Hodgson is willing to offer him at Craven Cottage, with an offer for the 23-year-old expected to be tabled in the summer.

I watched the match here in SA, and scratched my head trying to figure out why Roy would be there. We're finished playing Pompey, and I don't think we're seeing Stoke any time soon, and then it hit me. Like fulham, Pompey and Stoke are still in the FA Cup. Perhaps some VERY advanced scouting.

Pompey won't be allowed to sell players outside of the window, so that's not it.

[Hazey]

If he was there doing some research for games then great. It'd also be great if he had an eye on O'Hara and Prince Boateng...

[White Noise]

We have, of course, also been linked with Aruna Dindane a few times in the last 18 months!

Or maybe its Quincy Owusu-Abeyie??  :'(

Maybe the missus wanted to make the trip...

Perhaps he fancys a massage ::).
