How could that not be a foul on Collins?

BBC saying we have 59% possession, yet the commentary is indicating we are being totally bossed!

Since the Whelan foul, this referee has given a freekick every time you look at a Pompey player. However, get thrown to the floor, sliding tackle off the ball or leave a foot in and we don’t even get a freekick?
Either way, we are really really poor.

Not sure what's happened to us vs Barnsley and today. We look really poor. Two good sides with better quality than us … We are carrying Evans and Marquis today and Coutts not back to his usual self. Yeah but I'd hope we could at least be competitive.

HT: Pompey 1-0 Gas
Second half has got to be better, surely?

At least today we are trying to play our passing game when we can. Luca Hoole doing well again. At 1-0 we are still in this game. Let’s not forget we are playing a top team. It’s not over by any means. An early goal in second half and we are in business.

Listening to that first half on the radio sounds like we barely got out our own half.

Anybody can do that. Hardly any progressive passes. Can't remember us coming close to even looking like scoring that half.

More competitive than Tuesday but still short on quality…
Would take off Evans … maybe replace with Anderson.
Very impressed with Gibson … brave and good on the ball so far.
Have more confidence that we can score today but every time the ball comes into our box it’s carnage.

We've been unable to get out of our own half. On Tuesday Barnsley pressed and we hoofed it. Today, Portsmouth have pressed and we've passed it backwards and into trouble.
Portsmouth look a good side, but I still think if we can counter quickly and effectively, get Marquis and Collins into the game a bit more, we could nick an equaliser.
Their goal was so disappointing to concede, shouldn't be giving away goals from corners like that.

I stay hopeful…

Set pieces a huge concern, no height and they’ve got some beasts, especially Morrison. Was obvious where it was going to come from today

I stay hopeful… But that's like saying Scunthorpe are playing better than when they lost 7-0 to us. I would hope that game vs Barnsley isn't the bar to which we set ourselves against otherwise we would be due for a long season.

What is it with the fascination on short corners ? Every single time we end up ballsing it up, just cross the Dam thing in first time. Not exactly from corners but set pieces from out wide in recent memory Connolly at Vale Connolly at Burton Marquis v Oxford Drags the defence out a bit. At least they are trying something different than a straight forward corner. Granted it doesn't always work but it's been more successful than corners for us recently. They should vary it though if they are expecting it short
