Wow! Bit of a chess match that-fair play to Pompey who deserved a point and stopped us playing. A bit of a smash and grab that we are on the right end of for a change.
Did they ? They certainly had more possession second half but we absolutely dominated the first. It’s obvious the windy conditions didn’t help kicking towards the the end where we scored both teams struggled going that way.
Our defence was magnificent to a man, goalie did his job, he might be the signing of the season. Onto Southend now, got to get focused on that one now.

Some genius on here ('listentomehearmeout') wants to move him upstairs to be director of Cov's city of culture committee - I know that makes no sense.

Too busy celebrating to look :smuggrin:
Just looked...

Looking good Coventry. Really fear them and Rotherham. Pompey will fade, Peterborough are 2 matches ahead, we will reign those in. We're good for 3rd spot I reckon. Coventry game soon could prove very crucial.

3 CHEERS FOR COVENTRY CITY !!


HIP HIP ?

Pompey have a tough run of games in terms of amount of fixtures. Will burn out imo. The game at Coventry for us is huge.
----------------

Yep other than a draw that's the next best result for us. Coventry doesn't worry me perhaps they should but I've just got this feeling that we will beat them.
----------------

I look at it this way - Coventry has taken the points from Pompey that we should have and now we are being given the opportunity to take those points from them.
----------------

I think Coventry are quietly in the driving seat now

Well how are you so convinced that Coventry and Portsmouth will be? It's amazing how much confidence some of our fans have in other teams and yet so little in ours.)
This, it was not so long ago that Wycombe and Oxford were being lauded as world beaters, now it's Coventry and Peterborough.
-----------------
Found a Pompey view there too:

Seen enough now to put my neck on the line. Rotherham and Coventry will be automatically promoted, and I said that before the game tonight. We are a playoff bound side, with Posh, yourselves and another team. Maybe Oxford.

Will need a fair few freak results for it to not be this. There’s more quality in the Rotherham team than any other I’ve seen and Coventry just are very solid at the back. Can see why they’ve only lost 3 all season. Very good at game management.

------------------

So mostly sensible comment from our rivals!

Co’mon, be a good sport. If you make comments that don’t age well, you’ve gotta learn to take the banter.

Ironic that they're pretty complimentary of us while a lot of people on here froth at the mouth and shout "Scumderland" every time they're mentioned.
