The roots on my latest Phal are poking through the holes in the bottom
of the pot. Is this a hint that it needs re-potting ? Everything else
is fine, new leaves, spikes etc.


Phal roots tend to wander, so for them to simply poke out holes at the
bottom of the pot doesn't mean much. You need to repot only if the
potting media is breaking down or the plant has outgrown the pot it's
in. Do make sure that the roots don't block the pot from draining
well.
