I think we are in big trouble for this run in now. Don’t think we’ll get anything today and the number of injuries at the back is gonna cost us. That Toal one at Wembley was so unnecessary.

Thought we were fairly comfortable first half but Exeter threw everything at us second half and will wonder how they haven’t got at least a point. Really hard fought away 3 points for us there

All Exeter opening 15 of second half

You can see from Aimson’s reaction he handled it. He doesn’t contest it at all and is laughing. I think we’ve been pretty comfortable other than the cross that hit the bar and that disallowed goal but I think you can exploit us with those balls into the box. We definitely need another.

We’ve been brilliant in possession this half… they haven’t been able to get the ball off us that often… But our line up isn’t the tallest today with no Santos and Toal so we look a bit vulnerable from crosses and set pieces. They’ve hit the bar and had a goal disallowed for handball which came...

No santos or Toal for us today and Johnston coming back in after a few months out. Think we will have to score 2/3 to win it today, can’t see us keeping a clean sheet.

I’d need to see it again but also thought we should have had a penalty when Charles went through and Flint took him out? Not sure why he’d go down if he wasn’t touched because he was in a great position

Yeah unfortunately Man City own him. He’ll play at prem level and maybe even for England. He’s in the u21s squad. Santos immense too at the back. One of his best ever games in a Bolton shirt.

Big improvement from us second half. Thought we were probably worthy of a point in the end and certainly didn’t expect to say that before the game and after 35 minutes today.

We usually do knock it about quite well but we lack that cutting edge in the big games. I thought for a good 20 mins before we scored we looked way off it. We weren’t winning any second balls. Your set pieces all on the money. We could have been 2/3 down had it not been for Santos and Trafford.

I was actually the same. I was in shock

Bigger and stronger other than Santos I should have said. He’s been immense

Not sure how we are level. Other than opening 5 mins Wednesday have been much better. We’ve had lots of the ball but been really sloppy. Wednesday look like creating a good chance every time the go forward. Bigger and stronger than us all over the pitch

Can’t see us getting anything tonight. Autos definitely gone after recent games. Hopefully form can pick up again after the pizza final so we can take some momentum into the playoffs (if we stay in them).

Both goals have come as a result of us giving the ball away needlessly. And we’ve missed a penalty and a one on one from Bradley where Walton made a great save. He also made an incredible save just before the penalty was given. I thought Ipswich were better first half but up to their second...

Yeah I’m not confident today at all after the last few games.

Haha. We’ve had loads of injuries (we’ve had 6-8 players missing every game for the past month) and somehow we’ve played 2-4 more games than everyone in the league… on top of those extra Pizza Champions League games. I do think that run has cost us this week in the league. But it is what it is...

We are just knackered. You can see it…we aren’t winning second balls. We can’t get up and down the pitch. Struggling to get back into shape when we lose the ball. I bet our running stats are down. 3 performances in a row that have not been quite right after a really good run before that. We...

All 4 goals in this game have been set pieces. Our marking has been pathetic. On the balance of play Pompey have probably deserved it. We definitely look tired and I didn’t fancy us before the game. Chances of autos have almost definitely gone now. We just need to make sure we sustain enough...

Get in. Not sure it’s a deserved lead but we are usually much better in the second halves of games.
