They've just beaten Boro, Ipswich and Lesser so will definitely be no pushover
Hopefully there's no hangover from Friday and we can play our all out attacking style and get the league won but it certainly won't be easy

They do have injury problems now.
The efforts they put in over the previous 3 games has taken a toll.
Hopefully they will think they've done enough to stay up (which they probably have) and will be "on the beach" for this one.

Wrexham offering free travel for their supporters

2 coaches from North Wales then.

Anticipating a very tough game; Portsmouth were very impressive against both Leicester and Ipswich, are in strong form and have incredible work ethic and team spirit. I think if they take the lead we'll really struggle to get back in the match, and their fans will be fired-up and loud as they always are.

God, I want a win tomorrow. Imagine clinching the title at the CBS with time to spare, a phenomenal end to the greatest season of all of our lives. I'll take a scrappy 1-0 all day long.

We do it in style They’re more or less safe… 4-0 and place rocking or a chaplin OG in the 89th min

It's possible they'll be tired, but no way will they be "on the beach" being 7 points clear of relegation with 9 still to play for.

They’ve got Stoke and Birmingham after us, they’ll be resting their best players ready for those 2, they’ll only need a point to guarantee It, doubt they’ll be going all out tomorrow

That's plausible, but there's a big difference between 'not going all out' and being 'on the beach'.

Hopefully Wrexham are 5-0 at half time against Oxford and Pompey can relax and let us have this

Saving it for the Wrexham game, yeah like the sound of that. Callum Doyle it could have been you.

Hyam and Doyle....it could have been you ! then
Sheaf injured again, injured again, you've got your own special bed

Song for the 89th minute for both sets of fans
“Let’s all laugh at Leicester”

Like it

Think Onyeka needs a break, same as Rudoni. I think this will be a nervy 2-1 to have us up as champions.

Honestly get Rudi his op now. No sense in waiting longer.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Honestly get Rudi his op now. No sense in waiting longer.

He and Lampard will want to confirm the title first.

Agree, if it’s half as bad as the Mail reported, he needs it desperately

 

[shmmeee]

He and Lampard will want to confirm the title first.

We’ll be fine for that without him. Far more
Important he’s raring to go next season IMO

I agree but I think it’s how those two will see it.

 

[Nick]

It really won't be a pushover tomorrow but would love to win the title with a win at home rather than Ipswich losing.

 

[SBAndy]

Yeah I think we just have to go in with the mentality to do it of our own accord. If we lose, we lose. We get 2 other shots at it - and Ipswich need to be perfect otherwise.

reckon we’ll be right up for this one, we’ve been a bit cautious the last 3 games ( understandable) , hopefully players and crowd at it from start to finish, get it done and just enjoy Sunday

 

[quinn1971]

Thomas got us promoted, who’s winning the league for us ? I’ll go for a Patterson moment from Eccles
