I would not take wiki stats to be accurate, on some of their player pages they count goals scored in friendlies as real goals.
The boy that went from Sheffield United to Sc***horpe on loan last week is down as having played 1, scored 1 before the season has even begun.
What is accurate is that Isgrove went on loan from Barnsley to Portsmouth at the end of January and was only named in three first team squads, not even playing a minute of football for Pompey before the end of the season. He wasn't injured, just couldn't break into the team.

Sounds like the agent bigging his player up there
Quite plus the news from GPC that said player did not make one appearance for Pompey!! Best leave alone!

I remember the last winger we signed after they couldn't get into the Pompey team!

Sc***horpe manager quoted as saying in a radio interview that van Veen will be leaving. Wonder where he ends up as he's too good for div2 apparently.

Holmes did actually play quite a few games for Pompey!! Was then frozen out. Strange comparison.

That’s hilarious . Any team would be mad to take him on .

Yes he has some class but only applies it for a fraction of the game. A luxery we can do without, give me a 90 minute player instead.

Just a throwaway comment, but had a feeling you wouldn't be able to help yourself!

I always recall that amazing 'chase down' and assist versus Forest Green in the last minute to win us the game. Wonderful stuff. Absolute sensational effort and determination coupled with skill all rolled into one. My issue with him was always, why couldn't he have displayed such endeavour more than once in a blue moon? An expensive luxury, and like you...Id much rather have a 90 minute player. Especially if he's going to be costing us the kind of money that KVV was!

Not really - he had played quite a bit for Pompey but fell out with the then Manager. Still if you and Parrot wish to disagree thats fine. Opinions rule - learn to live with them

Pity, I don't reckon there would be that many scouts at the game unless Rushden want to take him off our hands.

I feel sorry for billy Waters . He seems a good lad and has never been given a chance at this club in his rightful position. He may or may not be good enough but he deserved a chance. He then has the indignity of being wheeled out against a pub team with the kids . I can only assume we are wanting a fee or his wages are prohibitive. I hope he sorts himself out and scores a hatful .

he has been given a chance - he isn't (or wasn't) good enough - never looked league standard. doesn't mean he isn't a nice bloke though. maybe some of the kids felt hard done by having to play in a team with him last night?! no reason to pander to someone for no reason - he is still getting paid, probably more than he should be!

I fully agree with this. Make him train with the kids if you really don't want him around the main squad but to actually roll him out as the only senior player in a youth team in front of the public is disrespectful and rude to a professional footballer. However, if he was played as an opportunity for him to impress a scout then that's a completely different matter. With any luck it was the latter and they saw enough to make them take a punt on him.
