    Match Thread Portsmouth FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Tuesday 21st Oct

    Absolutely brilliant night. The Good Companion, recommended by @Skyblueweeman, was perfect for pre-match beers. Good, old-fashioned away end which was fitting for all the classic songs that were rolled out. Stayed at a hotel nearby which was full of Cov fans; a group of us stayed up until gone...

    Pompey Player Ratings

    Surprised to see you give Saka and Allen the same mark. Allen was tidy but Saka was electric when he came on. Spoke to a group of Pompey fans after and they thought Sakamoto was sensational.

    Very similar to the approach to Highfield Road.

    Just got on the train at Cov station for Fratton via Southampton. Flew over for Saturday and this one. Staying at the Ibis next to the ground. Looking forward to getting some sea air, fresh fish and chips and (hopefully) three points. Is there a designated away pub? Safe journey all.

    "It never happens for people like us, you know"

    As there are a few posts about songs, Celtic have a good song about being top of the league which is easy to adapt if we’re top and especially if Leicester get a points deduction: #We’re on the top of the league Looking down on the Leicester And the only explanation I can find It’s the form...

    As well as putting the graft in he can also pick a pass. Lovely pass through the defence for Wright’s big chance in the first half. Superb player and professional.

    Potentially an acknowledgement for Cov fans supporting the protest. Brilliant whatever the reason.

    ‘Who put the ball in the X net? Half the fucking team did’ is the most-sung song of the season!

    Sheffield Wednesday "on the pitch"

    3~0. Important that none of our fans get involved.

    The Holy grail

    I was on the second row at Millwall just to the side of the goal. I thought Rushworth was outstanding again. Great signing and just what we needed.

    Video A first day back on the grass for Oliver Dovin. 💪

    Memphis Depay tore his ACL on 15 December 2019 and first played in a practice game on 1 July 2020. As I was doing physio after two ACL ops, my physio said he'd never known a player return quicker than Memphis. I'm back playing +50s and don't think about my knee - hopefully all smooth for Dovin.

    Post match fans zone

    We stayed behind at the stadium in Brighton a few years ago after the cup game there. They also sold off the food at half-price moving towards closing time which obviously prevents waste. Good to see the matchday experience being enhanced.

    I’m at the darts in Basel, Switzerland, and have been drinking for 6 hours. Not read any of this thread but did watch the game on my phone. Up where we should be in the table. Will catch up tomorrow but for now will just continue and absolutely revel in the win. #PUSB

    Good post. Used to be cracking in there post-game in the Prem days.

    Transfer Rumour Carl Rushworth

    I’m amazed that people can’t remember how bad Wilson was in the play-offs. Dovin didn’t really do anything wrong at the start of last season either so Robins’ chopping and changing didn’t really help. Rushworth will hopefully be very good for us so let’s keep him in the team and let him grow.

    Match Thread Leicester City - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 20th Sep

    Thanks for sharing. The most unbalanced highlights I’ve ever watched - 40 mins of a goalless first half and two mins of the second half featuring two goals! I was too young to appreciate it at the time but Benno really was a fantastic player. Whenever you see old games on The Big Match or...

    Stratford sky blues

    The train to the stadium is always packed leaving Cov station, to the point where not everyone can get on - this train comes from Leamington so should get on OK there. I've always got on it on the way back but it is also packed and so infrequent that if you miss it - a la Ed Balls - it's a right...
