Eh, whilst Doncaster winning would be good, ultimately it's our results that will determine whether we stay up or go down. I know it's been said about a lot of our home games this season but this Saturday's game against Blackpool truly is crucial. I can come to terms with losing to a team like Sunderland, who have a budget many times ours and will beat teams higher in the table with more points than us. No disrespect intended to Blackpool, they're having a good season but we simply can't afford to be losing to mid table teams we should competing with at home in the position we are in the table. Fully expecting a reaction from GC and the lads as the poor form at home needs to stop. The more we keep dropping points, the more reliant we are becoming on results like tonight. If we keep dropping points then even Shrewsbury losing tonight won't save us. We need a response on Saturday to show we have the fight to turn things around.

Weve been hoping for a reaction at home for a couple of months! The performance against a sunderland side who coasted it was shocking! Yes I know it's been shocking to be honest with you mate. I'll take the 3 points however they come at this stage of the season, even if we don't play all that well.

It scares me to think where we'd be without those three wins we got from the GC bounce. Yes our form has been mediocre since that but without that 9 points we'd be in it up to our necks rather than up to our knees right now.

The performances at home to Wycombe, Shrewsbury and Burton were also shocking. I'm hoping things will be different on saturday because we desperately need the win. Coughlan needs to shake things up a bit, not be so stubborn with his tactics and selections and send a team out to attack which means not playing two defensive minded midfielders in the centre.

must admit i cannot see shrewsbury going down,their aggressive pressing game against us impressed me despite all the other negative stuff they showed during the game. Bit worried that blackpool will be on a high saturday,with the oystens gone and a likely big crowd for their next home game.
Ps.. shrewsbury have a free scoring striker called payne who cant even get a start for them at the moment!

Not so sure about Blackpool's present position given they are now in the receivers hands, whilst it might be good news for the fans I wonder if it is such good news if your not guaranteed your going to be paid on time this month?

But only winning 1 in 8 and having the pressure of winning don't bode well. It's simple we need to hit a bit of form or we are down..

There is an interview with jay spearing in which he indicates how pleased he is for the fans that oyston has been removed and how difficult its been playing in front of tiny crowds. Of course at the end of the day its just another game on saturday regardless of their situation.

3-0. Portsmouth off to Wembley. Surely there is some mistake with this scoreline? Bury have a great manager and outstanding players like byron moore and dom telford.

3-0. Portsmouth off to Wembley. Which probably means 30000 plus from Pompey and in the pass the same from Sunderland & Gas. The tickets are from £20 - £70 with gate receipts of 30%. So 60000 at an average of £40 is around £2.5 million - 30% each ?

Shrewsbury 2-0 up..not good.. 2 goals in 2 games for Tyrese Campbell. That's the goalscorer we needed. Still, never mind, we did manage to successfully get in a big lump to hit long balls to so he can win the knock downs for our other non-scoring strikers...

Sadly, so have Derby in their last two games. So, whilst not good, it’s not as bad a result as it could have been.

True, but then again Walsall fans could wonder where they'd be without their decent start to the season, and Plymouth fans would be stood in the sh** without their revival.

So 60000 at an average of £40 is around £2.5 million 6- 30% each ? Im sure pompey will take 40,000.Sunderland even more. If it wasnt in this shamblolic cup then we would take 35k/40k also.If we get there I doubt we will take 25k,more like 20k.
