Indeed, a win tonight would put us 5pts off 3rd - staggering considering we all thought autos were off the cards after the 3 game skid. I have a feeling that if we win tonight, we’re very much back in the race for automatic promotion.

I think a few people are fixating on the use of the term ‘nicking one’. We’re going to set up the team to be solid and not concede and then hit Luton on the counter-attack. It’s a strategy that worked to devastating effect at their place, and generally against the ‘better’ sides in this...

Which is why I was in favour of signing Baker because I think he’ll add creativity and goal scoring - something we’ve not had from the wings since Jones got injured! We just seem to get things done against teams who look like they should beat us; Swindon had the best away record coming to us -...

If everyone was fully fit, I’d say this is the best team to field against the teams we typically struggle against. However, Kelly and Doyle start against Luton (and Notts County) because this is the kind of game they thrive in. With those two in the middle, we seem to stifle even the best...

It’s got to go to McNulty, he was the only player who looked like scoring before we brought in JCH. I think Jones would’ve been nailed on for it had he not got injured. Doyle is probably our most important player, his role in midfield and leadership skills are second to none, perhaps in the...

Weren’t at the game because I was playing rugby myself. However, results went our way massively, and we’re 8pts off 3rd, a win on Tuesday puts us 5 off and Luton are in disarray. Games like Barnet we typically struggle against, so 3pts is all that matters here. Brilliant to see JCH score today...

Last season he was Pompey’s 3rd top goal scorer with 9. It’s a good deal. Firstly, there aren’t really any reputable free agents out there at this point in the season. Second, it’s a short term deal, so no commitment after this season if he doesn’t perform. Finally, he’s a known quantity at L2...

Didn’t George Thomas go to Leicester to play in the Premiership? Hahahahahaha

I think he’s shot himself in the foot. I think we were likely to have signed him had he not gone to play in India. Had he signed with us, he’d have been on a 1yr deal minimum and had that job security. This is said with hindsight because playing football in India would’ve been a good opportunity...

I don’t want to be dismissive, but we need to focus on ourselves, if we put together a sequence of results, we’ll most likely climb up the table. We’ve got 2 home games coming up, and I think we should be aiming for 4 or 6 points. We have a better GD than our rivals; Exeter, Swindon, Carlisle...

Folks, I brought my tickets for this fixture yesterday. So I’m wondering how I go about getting a refund/exchange for my tickets? Any help is appreciated!

If we win, we’ll be in the playoffs because we have a better GD than Swindon. With what Robins and Doyle we’re saying in the preview, autos is doable! But, we’ve got to put an unbeaten run together! I think we can probably afford to lose 1 (or 2 at most) more games for autos.

For me, this is another can’t lose game. Ideally, we need a win, but a draw would also be a decent result. A lot of people seem to debating about midfield, but I keep Kelly and Doyle in the middles. We seem to be impenetrable when they both play in the middle. So Bayliss goes on the wing since...

Not necessarily. We’re 8 points off 3rd at this moment with a game in hand. We could be in position come Luton at home that we could cut that deficit to 5pts with 8 games to spare and 24 points to play for. It could even end up being less. It’s not outside the realms of possibility. In the next...

Their game in hand is against us, we’ll be hoping to win that one - we’ve got 3 home games on the bounce and really need to aiming for 7pts from then.

I do think if we remain unbeaten (or win 3/4) for these next 4 games, I’m backing us to really push for 3rd. The good news is: they are all winnable games, however, Luton and Lincoln should be difficult games. Knowing us, we’ll beat those two and lose to Crewe and Barnet...

Agreed. The best thing to do is to take it game by game. Knowing our form this season, I can honestly see us drawing to Barnet then beating Luton. That’d be so typical.

I just think we as a fan base just don’t see the bigger picture at times. Even through the slump, we were one game away from catching up. We dropped from 3rd to 7/8th in one week. It’s such a close contest from 9th to 3rd or even 2nd. No team can afford to drop points. Perhaps the skid of...

Or even better. The next 4 games are all winnable fixtures. We’ve already beaten 3/4 already and Barnet at home really should be a win (we’ll up losing just that game now). This is such a crazy league. We’re 8pts off Wycombe in 3rd with a game in hand, if we match or even better their result...

Ah, that one slipped my mind. We should be aiming for 4 points minimum leading up to the Luton game. Then I think it’s probably advantage us: we won 3-0 at their place, we’re home on a Tuesday night and it’s the kind of the game we usually win this year...
