Saturday 5th December.
League 1
Portsmouth v Posh.
A must win game.

[stumpy]

we will this one 2-0...Broom and Dembele....

Our last two visits have resulted in a surprise 3-2 win in April 2019 & a deserved 2-2 draw exactly a year ago. It'll be interesting to see what, if any, affect having 2,000 fans there will have on the players given months of playing in empty stadiums.

I'd take a draw to stop the rot and and also keep the gap between us in the table.

Me too.
Current form table. Last six matches. https://www.twtd.co.uk/league-tables/co ... e-and-away
6 Portsmouth At home played 4 won 2 drawn 1 lost 1 ... away played 2 won 1 drawn 1 points 11
7 Posh At home played 4 won 2 drawn 1 lost ... away played 2 won 1 lost 1 points 10
Sort of suggests a draw.

[stumpy]

0-0 H/T

They've been on top but we have looked very solid at the back. Back to the famous patented "Fergie diamond" which is not working well going forward...Dembele is the main threat whilst Szmodics will be delighting the "runs around a lot, tries hard, gives 100%" merchants

[stumpy]

If we can keep this 0-0 for the first 10-15 minutes of the second half, we might just nick a goal...defence is looking strong and might keep that much desired clean sheet...pretty good game tbh

[stumpy]

Unbelievably poor defending from a free kick and we are 1-0 down (deservedly so tbh)

[stumpy]

And now 2-0 down as midget Pym is beaten from distance (he is vying with Ward for most assists)

[Gaz_Miller]

This is embarrassing.

[stumpy]

We look awful up front and have lost it at the back...it's really bad and we have Colonel Chipmunk to tell us afterwards that we need to score goals and stop the others scoring

[pleasureboy60]

Nevermind, Our wonderful manager says if we play like we did at Wimbledon then we will win more games than we will lose!! Unfortunately it won't be today!!

[Gaz_Miller]

Please Macanthony, do not give this manager anymore money.

[stumpy]

That was complete dogshit - please quit Fergie

[Narrowboat Dave]

I see our perennial winter collapse is well and truly under way.

Again.

When the teams below us win their matches in hand, we’ll be mid table. We were top a couple of weeks ago!

The Chairman needs to get a grip and find a manager who can not only find a formation these players are comfortable with, but get them performing as a multi million pound squad should.
