Home to Stevenage. That's us into the Semis.

 

[Bottega Don]

Well I predicted it correct, Pompey away and we will be knocked out

 

[denzel ecfc]

Stevenage unchanged, its almost as if they take this more seriously than a relegation fight.
We have 7 changes.

That is ridiculous. You would think that they would want to focus on the league?

 

[E10rifle]

I... I really dont know what formation we’re playing tonight. Might be a diamond with no attacking midfielder. Might be 3-5-2 with a midfielder and a winger at wing backs. Might be a 4-3-3 with a striker, centre back and midfielder out of position. Abandon hope all ye who enter here... unless you’re an away fan.

 

[northstandexile]

Newport are really tin pot as tonight’s game has been postponed due to frozen pitch.

 

[Grumpy Grecian]

Well, that's the first semi-finalist sorted! And another £50,000 in the bank!!

 

[Bottega Don]

We crashed out against Portsmouth but sounds like we played very well against a side in the league above, that and saturdays performances despite all of our injuries have got some positivity going around finally.

 

[Trapdoor]

Nice to see Matt Jay getting on the score sheet. Think he deserves another contract and will come good for us in the end.

 

[denzel ecfc]

Would swap tonight's result for 3 points on Saturday but at least most of the side will be fresh with 7 changes and Bowman going off early, plus some positive news with Lee Holmes getting some time.

 

[Moomin]

Ajose did himself the world of good by scoring a goal and setting up another. He’s pushing for a league start now and I hope he plays up at Swindon in a couple of weeks...

Nice to get through last night, I’m just shocked it wasn’t 1-0. Big chance of Wembley now but as Denzel says I’d sooner get league wins as that’s the priority

We need some points now.

 

[denzel ecfc]

Pompey away in the semis. If we do manage to win it would be a very sparse Wembley in the final, so the powers that be will be praying for us to lose.
Pompey fans seem to be excited about this, no idea why as I would have thought the novelty would have worn off after last year

 

[northstandexile]

EFL breathing a sigh of relief that Pompey score in 92 and 96th minute to beat Exeter 3-2.

just need to play Salford in final for them to cream their pants.

 

[Trapdoor]

Pompey winner scored in the 6th minute of injury time. Ref should have just given them a few penalties instead.

Anyway pleased with the competitive run out for our reserves. Good experience for the lads.

 

[GTFCfish]

Home to Stevenage. That's us into the Semis.

And I checked your score away at Pompey about 20 mins ago and you had just gone 2-1 up in the 89th minute so well played and I hope you enjoy your day at Wembley for the final.

 

[valefan16]

Watched it and Exeter defended ok then went totally missing in injury time, first one their lads given an acre in the D and the other one their full back leaves their guy free for the switch with seconds to go. Decent effort but should of seen that out really.

 

[Pennywise]

Lolololololol.

 

[Trapdoor]

Good training for our youngsters. Hope to see some more of harry kite next year. Looked decent.

 

[Sydney Posse]

We made 10 changes for this game, and Pompey only made 2. I was expecting a heavy loss. To be 2-1 up with 5 to go is heart breaking for the younger players, but they can hold their heads very high for almost doing it away to a decent league 1 outfit. Now we can concentrate on the league !!

 

[Dave-Vale]

Hope Pompey smash the Class of 92 vanity project.

The difference in attendance for each club will be absolutely absurd.

 

[Pennywise]

It’s almost like it’s fixed.

Two biggest sides last season. Now these pair.

Harvey wanking himself silly as we speak. As are Sky.

 

[BlackHaddock]

FFS Newport. No one gives a shit about this comp, but you've let those tossers get to Wembley again.

 

[Deepcut Cobbler]

TFF sweepstake on how many they manage? Less than the Hamil road end holds I reckon with most wearing Man Utd shirts vs 35k+ Portsmouth. There was only 8k TOTAL at their play off final last year for christs sake.

Depends on which clubs are playing at home at the same time...

 

[Agombar stool]

Not paid any attention to this farce but now Salford have got to the final our last home game of the season will have to be re-arranged which is irritating.

Particularly for me as on the last home game of the season at half-time they do a roll call of all the fans lost during the season and one of our colleagues we went to watch Swindon with for a number of seasons is included in this and I wanted to go to pay my respects, now potentially not possible.

Cry me a river etc but still, poxy tournament!

Its early April before Easter? Surely you have a home game either last game or the week before?

Just looked at the fixtures and you are correct. Not sure why I was told this was our last home game, its Orient at home on the 18th April! I should really delete my post but I'll leave it there for others to point and laugh!!
