We will have to agree to disagree then, because Murphy was trying to roll the ball out to the fullbacks on numerous occasions, but the fullbacks were being closed down too quickly and then therefore had to punt it forwards. The long punt was not a chosen tactic.

Peterborough are a stange team. Depends which one tunrs up tomorrow. If Forest were to lose that then they might get back in trouble. Do think Forest might well bag the win tomorrow though.

Pompey have the advantage of playing on Tuesday evening rather than tomorrow.

True. Happy it is so immediate on the one hand, but on the other very conscious of the fact that we can't rotate our squad as other sides can.

Now this is what I call planking!

To defend AT though here on this, I have to say that the long hoof was not a tactic in my book. Peterborough did a very thorough job of denying us space and closing us down, especially in our own half, so therefore when we tried to play the ball through the midfield they closed us down so...

Thing is for me, yesterday I was so confident and we didn't win. Sometimes it's when you fear the worst that City surprise you. I am predicting a 0-2 score tomorrow. More often than not I'm wrong though so very much hoping I will be wrong again tomorrow.

Hussey's crossing may well be described as being pinpoint ...... if he was pinpointing the corner flag that is.

And Sheff.

Millwall is a game I had us down for a draw. Think they will be tough. My thinking though is if we can get a draw tomorrow and then a draw at Burnley and a draw against Millwall we could well find ourselves above Bristol, who have those two very tough games to come.

I will have my razor blades and rope ready. We lose on Monday and I am going to have a shave and then go into the garden and attach the swing back onto the pear tree.

Pompey are 5 points behind though. That's quite a gap. They have Millwall at home next and lately Millwall have beaten Peterborough 3-0 at Peterborough, beaten Burnley 3-1 at Burnley and beaten Donny 3-0 at Donny. Tough game for Pompey on Tuesday for sure. Last game they have Forest away...

I think the counter attack will suit us. Bristol have to come at us. Can't believe for a minute they haven't got at least one eye on the fact they have Brum and West Ham to come after us. They must know that they have to beat us. Brum have now scored 3 goals in each of their last 3 games and...

When I saw the title 'handy little tool' I thought it was going to be a thread about Craig Bellamy.

A draw will be just fine!

It was Cranie's man for that 2nd goal and he let him get in front of him.

Scored 2 in each of the last 3 games mind. 2 goals per game not enough for you Houch?;):whistle:

Was thinking that way last night, but now, as I alluded to on another thread, Bristol will be under pressure for this being a must win game for them with Brum and then West Ham to come for them after us.

His back has been playing up for months now. Really limits our options. Going to have to put a kid on the bench now you feel. Bell will also need to be there in case we wish to switch Macca to striker and need a wide midfielder. Going to really fook up our subs, cos we'll have to have Willis...

It's not spin though Macca. Had we been 4 points clear this morning there would be post after post after post on here saying that we will now survive and everyone would have believed that we wouldn't lose against Bristol after 3 wins on the bounce and everything being rosey in the Sky Blue...
