    I don't think Lloyd has been made a victim as such. However, I do believe you can have empathy towards someone even though there are other people who are worse off. None of us know the reasons he's not playing, but if it's due to injury is simply being out of favour then I can understand that must be frustrating for him. I get a couple years sick pay in my job but I'd still be gutted if I couldn't work.

    It's been announced that Lloyd Isgrove will be out of action in the coming
    weeks, after pulling up with a groin strain incurred in the pre-match warm
    up before Portsmouths Under 23's game against Fulham.

    He's going to struggle to get another contract.

    Can-can dancer might not be the best long term career move for him.

    Pompey fan here, shame for the lad but he's not been missed, and I doubt he'd get on the bench now even if fit. If anything, his absence has helped with the emergence of Pitman as a number 10, which has been key to our recent form.

    At least you're getting some value from his loan.

    Me too, but apparently if you say that, you hate everyone that’s struggling in this country, who’s not a footballer.

    It’s also Lloyd’s fault supposedly, I think.

    He's basically not played for two years, so even if he was fit he'd need half a season to get up to speed. Such a shame for the lad indeed, he's an excellent player when fit, but it seems like you only have to fart next to him to put him out for a fortnight.

    Love him like a son?! I'm assuming you don't have any actual kids?

    I'm sure he is on a three year deal so that means another fourteen months off sick on full pay. Tough life.
