Yep, ideally we need to beat Wigan and hope Pish do us a favour against Oxford. I feel dirty rooting for Pish, but needs must...
Would be nice if Barnsley lost as well. They're on a dreadful run of form at the minute and, having been almost assured of a playoff place not long ago, are now on...
I imagine it will result in a lot of fans using VPNs, assuming there will still be matches broadcast for international viewers.
Cant see Sky showing the likes of us very often, unless we're playing Wrexham, Charlton, Reading, Wendies or Birmingham. The broadcasters are only interested in the...
'Ave that Oxford :woo:
Freddie Draper's first goal for the club, as important as Makama's the other week. Great that we are seeing this from our academy players.
It would be good if we could put a big screen up in the fanzone and make some money out of the ticketless Pompey fans! Maybe wouldn't work with the delay between live and screen though
I don't want to put a curse on him, but I'm surprised how many games we are getting out of Teddy Bishop. He could barely manage consecutive matches for the first couple of seasons we had him, and I think hadn't done a full 90 for ages! Yet he seems to be available all the time nowadays. Weird.
Orient are decimated by injuries and realistically out of the hunt for the playoffs. I can see them struggling to the end of the season now, finishing 11th or 12th maybe. A decent result still, but just running out of gas at the end. I'm local to them so want them to do well, but ultimately...
Now over 4000. Think the record for the early bird period was 4380 or something in 2022,looks like we could beat that by the deadline on close of play Tuesday.
Not long ago, I had this down as one of our easier games on the run-in, but Carlisle seem to have found some form despite realistically having sod all to play for. With Erhahon back, we should be a bit more coherent. I reckon maybe Makama in for House as well, he just didn't look fully fit today.
Great to see Bolton operating sustainably after going to the wall not long ago.

Brilliant! We were really poor but academy product Makama has come on and created a goal from nothing. In the playoffs on goal difference withOxford still to play. It's in our hands now. Erhahon back for the next match and we should look a bit better.
Our gung-ho+ setup isn't really working. Orient have had far more chances. Apart from a golden chance for Taylor that he uncharacteristically spooned wide, we've not had much. We are winning the ball in good areas but the passing has been dreadful. Hopefully Skubala can sort things out at half time.
Not even half an hour in and Orient are already time wasting at every corner and throw-in. At 0-0. Pathetic.
We've not quite clicked yet, few stray passes holding us back.
I don't get back all that often, but uphill is particularly nice, lots of good pubs and places to eat, plus some picturesque streets, cathedral, castle etc. If you've got a bit of time, I would head up there, then roll down for the game. We have a very decent fanzone behind the South Park stand...
