Must win if we're to keep our slim play off hopes alive.

We’re 150-1 to go up - wonder how drastically that’ll drop should we win

Does that 'going-up' mean automatic place or include play-offs too?

Also, people keep saying we must win tomorrow to make the play offs. Not strictly true. A draw would keep us in it still. If donny only get 1 point out of oxford away and Accrington then it’ll still go to the last day. Of course it would help massively to win at Portsmouth because likelihood is Doncaster will beat one of those sides.

It’s a must win because we’re a very realistic bunch, I swear.

Willis. Rb
Sterling. Lb
Hyam. Cb
Davies. Cb
Shipley. CM
Kelly. Cm
Thomas. Am
Bright
Baka
Hiwula

Subs: Addai, Brown, Grimmer, westbrook , Wakefield, Ponticelli, Chaplin.

Can't see us getting anything out of this game but then again I said the same thing vs Sunderland.
Portsmouth will want it more than us, and look at their goal difference versus ours.
Hoping for a win of course, but predicting a 3-1 defeat,

Surely Conor Chaplin’s gonna get the winner, then score a hat trick against them at Wembley?

3 wins is 9 points, plus current 64 equals 73. 2nd place on over 80 already, so there's your answer.

Chaplin is clearly still a Pompey boy judging by his social media posts.

Therefore if his heart isn’t in it, I’d keep him on the bench for the entirety.

He's not going to bust a gut against pompey I'd let him sit this one out

Yeah...I was a bit lazy on that one. Just thought if it includes play-offs at 150-1...still a long shot but they are not bad odds

We do, but not very often.

Would start Chaplin in this one, he will be fired up to get one over Kenny Jackett.

In place of who? Baka? Chaplin is not a target man. Hirwula? scores at twice the rate as Chaplin. Bright? He is twice as skillful. This is the Chaplin problem.

Where would you start him? I can't see where he fits at the minute apart from off the bench. Its the same issue they had with him.

Totally disagree, that is like saying James Collins is a massive City fan, and doesn't want to score against us.

Chaplin is a kid Collins isn't. He doesn't deserve to start anyway what's he done came on against Sunderland and stuck a lucky one into the top corner is he even much fit

So what if Chaplin is young compared to Collins, they are both professionals who get paid to score goals. If he doesn't start then he needs to play his part, and hopefully he comes on to score the lucky winner.
