Should be a win all day long. I sense FL has to re-still the target and get the players hunger going again. The last few games have not be all that good and focus must be a priority so any complacency does not creep in. Nothing for free in this league. 2-0

Who cares? Automatic promotion via an offide goal or whatever we would all take. Come on now. As for getting thrashed if we go up? Utter nonsense. Sunderland doing well and we have some very good talent now not to mention strong additions being added should we make it.

Rudoni will not feature. Best way in this one is attack. Robin's we know will set up not to be beat. They are a good defensive unit. Score few goals (the last two games a rare exception, and if you watch the highlights it was shocking defending by the opposition) I expect a tight game with us...

I beleive it was a deliberate joke for the fans....they will be trolling all your replies!

Stoke under robin's have done remarkably well so far. They are not prolific in front of goal, and though they hit a few the last couple of games , it says more about the opposition than Stoke. Robin's typically sets up to not lose first and formost in a game like this. (boy would he love to win...

MOTM: Thomas Big shout out: Sakamoto Other worthy notables: Grimes & Rushworth Disappointment: Wright Most unfortunate: Simms I think we got this.

We played 15 minutes second half and won the game. After that we didn't need to raise our game. Good sides come back and do what we did tonight. Results largely with us elsewhere but what about Stokes? Looking like they are staying the course and getting stronger. Just imagine if we and Robin's...

too passive. We must get back on it. EMC is a miss on the left and Asante needs to ber down the middle causing havoc. That's what's changed.

I was taking a look at the foot of the table. Norwich in deep pooh, Wednesday unlikely to recover. For me apart from those two I'd say Derby, Oxford, as favourites right now. I worry for Southampton but think they will have too much. Shefield Utd will recover without doubt for me. I think Pompey...

Hope Thomas is back tbh. Wolf was dire. Torp back, Milan back, DaSilva back and we are back to near normal. Utd recovery is still on but still worrying at the same time if they don't perform again. Hopefully Hamer is out and we can do what top teams do, and show Wrexham was a blip and normal...

When I saw the team sheet I wanted to change my previous prediction. Forced changes are one thing but it just lacked all the balance we had previously. They stiffled us with 5 in midfield, and we had no get out with Torp off the field. It was always going to be a gun ho performance from Wrexham...

Can't see any real issue against this lot. We should come out winners. We start fast, keep the ball and we run away with it in the first 45 minutes. 0-4

Just because we won does not mean we can't critique the day. There are obvious drop offs the last couple of games, but we have been too good overall regardless. Momentum, and continued motivation are required when the team look as if they may afterall be a little vunerable as injuries, a touch...

I understand people's concerns with today's performance. It was a very odd kind of game. But lets keep it sensible. Watford had a few very good opportunities, but failed to put them away. That apart, I don't recall many 'raids' on our goal? That's not withstanding a bit of a lacklustre second...

Something about Watford's inconsistency, always capable of beating anyone, difficult side to play against. On paper its an easy win but will need to be on our best concentration and level of football we are capable of or a shock could happen.

Masterful performance at a difficult place normally. We simply nulified them and never got out of second gear. made them look very poor. Only annoyance was when Frank put on so many subs last 10 we lost all shape and paid a price. Don't do that again Frank!

This looks like very sensible tactics. 3 at the back to work together against a Pompey side that always has that rush of blood at home. We nulify that first half, maybe get the lead, change formation back again with Wright on 60 minutes, and run out comfortable winners. Clearly Frank wants to...

We need a left back in the Milan mold. DaSilva has been very good but was poor again yesterday. I just don't think he is the answer. Bidders can move on. We need an attack minded midfielder who can drive with the ball, like Rudoni/Torp and a ball winner for when needed and used as back up to...

This 'take a draw' business is annoying. I know Pompey get themselves fired up, they fight hard but they are not even close to the talent we have. Over 90 minutes we should win. Every team will want the scalp of the leaders but we must make sure games like this are not one of them. Lets hope we...

A dozen games in is about the time to take stock. If a team is pulling away from the top 6 pack in that top 2 then you can see a pattern emerging. Happens every year. We just have to learn how to be consistent every game and expect to win. I think we have possibly the best first 11 in the...
