Thought I'd get the matchday thread up and running. Will be interesting to see who is in the team, with all the talk about players showing whether they want to come on the journey next season.
I'm going for a 2-2 draw.

You think 2-2? I can't see us scoring one let alone two goals!
Heavy defeat incoming. Early goal too, probably an own goal or a bad mistake. Then we will simply give up and be grateful to lose just by the 3 goals.

Well, this will be the day where we get the “FT whistle blows, Rovers are relegated to League Two” tweet from the club’s official Twitter to confirm what we already knew.
Can we instil some pride into the shirt and pick up a win away from home at long last to recover some semblance of dignity? Would like to see Tom Mehew start or play some part today, always looked good when I’ve watched him play.

I feel we may take an absolute pasting tomorrow if pompey are on form and score early. I just can't see us scoring more than 1 max. You never know in football but a loss is highly probable. Loss & 0.2 ill guess.

If Pompey turn up and are on form tomorrow we may win today, though.

Pick the players you want to keep, drop the rest and leave them at home, fill their positions with youth squad, let them run their hearts out getting used to playing for the first team.

I feel sorry for Pompey's play off rivals, as we'll basically hand them 3pts later.
As far as changes I doubt they'll be any in the starting 11 not already enforced by injuries.

Absolute hammering incoming, sadly. Early kick off - 1pm - too. At least it will be over early......

One of the few games this season I won’t be watching. I’m done with away games now.
I’ll be out making my garage beautiful instead.

Pompey will be nervous, they haven't won for a while and are desperate to get back into the play-off fight. If we get jammy and nick a silly goal early on a shock could be on the cards. In previous relegation years when the pressure is off (we are down) they handbrake comes off and we play alright.

Unless you are totally deluded the expected result should be a Pompey victory.
A draw would be creditable, but won’t be enough, and a win would be at least a game too late and would feel like a massive kick in the nads, especially if Wigan gain a single point.
It has been an absolute sh** show this season. Just want this season finished and consigned to history as soon as possible.
Next season will at least bring new hope and a clean slate. UTG.

Surely we know the script by now? 1. Start well and on the front foot. 2. Miss a good chance or two 3. Concede a sloppy goal against the run of play 4. Huff and puff for the remaining 70 mins with no end product 5. Concede a second on the break 6. Look completely knackered for the final 10 minutes 7. A few strange subs from JB (either really early or really late) 8. Some dreadful deliveries by Westbrooke 9. Both Lukes play well and run their hearts out, with Luke M blasting a couple of shots from 20 yards out over the bar. 10. Wigan and those around us win anyway.
Oh, and Hanlan falls down a lot.
Have I missed anything?

Is anyone actually going to pay £10 to watch this?
