A long way to go yet, but the potential of France vs England in the #EURo2024 final will do wonders for insomniacs everywhere!

Time to get behind Trafford. Parker won't be playing Kompany football. He's far more pragmatic so Trafford should suit his football better. He was rushed into PL too soon but he's a good keeper. Losing Muric doesn't need to be a huge blow. #twitterclarets

We don't have a winners mentality. We had the impetus after scoring, but handed it straight back to Spain as we're innately negative. Spain were worthy winners, they should have scored 4 or 5. That's what happens when you're positive. It's never coming home is it! #ENGSPA

2 nil at half time is a hell of an effort when you consider we've played 45 minutes without a striker. Get Foster off. He offers absolutely nothing. Return of the Wout! #twitterclarets

Amazing what a bit of pragmatism can do! We were head and shoulders above Luton and the game should have been over before they scored. I hope O'Shea stays, he was brilliant tonight, everything we need in this league. A great start to the SP era. #twitterclarets

Twine was never in our plans. He's a good player, but not at the level of our other attacking options. Odobert is a loss but can't turn that money down. My worry now is O'Shea and Berge. We could do with keeping them and shipping out some squad fillers. #twitterclarets

We need the transfer window to slam shut quickly! If we can keep the squad together we'll have far too much for the league. Zeki and Wout off the bench is obscene, and frankly a bit absurd! Imagine if we keep Berge too 😂 #twitterclarets

Berge was never hanging around this season. We're doubling our money in 12 months so can't complain. He would have been a different class in this league but I'd actually rather we keep O'Shea, and this deal surely makes that more likely now? #twitterclarets

I think we can wave bye bye to automatic promotion if that's the squad from today onwards. Fire sale well underway. Koleosho and Dara next. #twitterclarets

Well that proves my earlier post correct quite quickly. We can't just sell everyone and expect anything other than disjointed crap. I expect Dara, Zeki and Koleosho will leave now so Pace needs to invest wisely and give Parker a chance this season. #twitterclarets

Incredibly telling interviews from both of them. It's not beyond the realms of possibility that Parker walks in the next few days. What are the Board doing this summer? Profit over promotion. The Rovers game could turn toxic very quickly, worrying times. #twitterclarets

I get the feeling the last two weeks will be spoken and written about for years to come. This is when the wheels fell off. #twitterclarets

A world class strike apart, we've looked relatively in control. We look like a team that was put together last week though. The midfield three are disjointed. It'll be interesting to see where we are in 6 weeks or so when this lot have had some time together. #twitterclarets

The red card ruined the game as a spectacle. It became a procession of time wasting and playtime fights/handbags. A really poor East Lancs Derby. No quality from either side and ultimately a pretty dreadful 90 minutes of football, if you can even call it that. #twitterclarets

So it turns out Kompany ball works when you have Harry Kane up front instead of Lyle Foster. Who would have guessed?! #twitterclarets

Jonny Lupton (@jlup1980) 's Twitter Profile Photo

Awful in every single area. Slow, predictable, played everything in front of them. Dreadful, I'd hook the lot of them if i could. #twitterclarets

Shades of Rotherham under VK. #Pompey were the better team until they decided to stop playing football after we equalised. Nowt but timewasting and shithousing for 20 minutes, hence the 8 minutes added time and our winner. Not loved a winner so much for ages! #twitterclarets

Superb by Gary Neville, highlighting the two-tier journalism that means millions in *actual corrupt dealings* by previous governments gets less scrutiny than the current PM going to a football match.
