What can I say make or break for both ourselves and Wimbledon if either lose or it’s a draw then I don’t see one of us escaping the drop. To be honest I can’t believe we still have a glimmer of hope going into the game

 

[longmover]

Crewe at home, I think there is going to be a bite from either Crewe or Doncaster at WR. Hopefully Duff was keeping his powder dry by keeping four normal starters out of the squad or on the bench last night, four yellow cards didn't help either. Id like to think that if we are able to go with the team that beat Fleetwood and Sunderland then we should have more than enough to win. If that isn't the case then it maybe a tough day at WR.

Gillingham at home, don't win and think the natives will start to get very restless and that's no offence to Gillingham at all.
We're awful at home, too many of the players are performing and it's the same ones most games too.
How we're still getting 8500 is beyond me 4 wins out of 17 at home.

If we win on Saturday then we will take some serious momentum into our game with you, add to that, Clayton and Gardner are getting fitter and the prospect of some of our first team players coming back: Bostock, Taylor, Okenhibirie, John, Anderson, Galbraith and Seaman only Close out for the season (8 first team players who have missed the majority of the season and we wonder why we are in trouble) we will hopefully give you a game

I fancy us against absolutely anyone at home. Only a few teams have outplayed us at Whaddon Road and we don't tend to lose there either.

I know we have injuries, but you have to believe that a couple were left out on a precautionary basis last night (Callum Wright and Ben Williams for example) and they'll be back and starting on Saturday. We really should be looking to win and I'll be disappointed if we don't.

 

[codaplenty]

The next 4 games Pompey a, Wigan a, Ipswich h, Sunderland a. 10 points is achievable but bit optimistic so more likely 7. B....hell, a win a win, league 1 status for a win. No wins in 6 and we now have a backlog of fixtures caused by 2 successive home matches being cancelled
Oh yes, Pompey on Saturday, 2 hopes, no and Bob

Makes our 5-0 win at your place even more impressive.

Yes you are probably right .A draw is no good for either side .We will have 3 player's back for Saturday.I'm not saying we are likely to win though.

Looked like a team that’s tough to beat, worth a fiver on you lot this weekend

 

[K-Win]

This is our last game for a while against a team in the bottom half. We are real flat track bullies this year. Very good record against teams in the bottom half and pretty awful against teams in the top half.

Need another win against Fleetwood to keep things interesting, playoff-wise, until the wheels inevitably come off in the following weeks. 2-1 win (Curtis, Raggett).

I doubt either of us could make a case for our teams to win

Quite possibly the strangest performance I've ever seen under Duff.

It was a tight first half, and we said at half-time that he'll speak to them and we'll come out better for it. We actually came out worse and Cambridge looked like they could score for fun.

 

[DearneValleyRover]

We’ve only 2 blocks of tickets unsold for Saturday which is outstanding given 2 weeks ago we would have struggled to fill a minibus, amazing what a few wins and a bit of confidence does.

 

[Caer]

We haven't won in 10 but at least it's the sort of fixture we get battered in this season next. Really the sort of game that will get the confidence just pumping as we slip away from the playoffs and can't buy a win.

 

[Millerbri]

As of 11am today 656 tickets sold for Plymouth.
The remaining tickets will go back on the team bus tomorrow but there is POTD for an extra £2.

The away end holds about 1450 . Unfortunately the capacity is reduced to about 1200 at the moment.I guess mainly due to the fact that the police etc don't deem the segregation to be sufficient .Anyway should be a decent crowd there Saturday around 8000.

Big call by Evatt to leave dapo on the bench again........Dapo Sadlier and Bodvarsson to come on with 30 to go

 

[codaplenty]

Great start by Fleetwood, be delighted to get a draw !

 

[codaplenty]

Two up now, still take a draw

 

[CTFCfan99]

This referee is having probably the biggest shocker I've ever seen. Some absolutely amazing decisions being made.

 

[DearneValleyRover]

Losing again just can’t string back to back wins

 

[codaplenty]

3 nil up, what is going on ? Starting to think a draw will be a bad result

 

[stevowanderer]

MK Dons the better side for sure so far. Very good on the ball and their movement is causing us real problems. We hit the bar with a header late in the half. A sub or 2 needed soon and we are still in it but need to improve second half.

 

[CTFCfan99]

Feel for anyone who's paid to go to our game today, awful ref and awful game. Credit to Crewe, not looked like a side who've lost 7 in a row.

 

[PuB]

We’ve pulled ourselves right back in to contention, goodness me. Outplayed Lincoln too

 

[codaplenty]

Gutted, on the face of it losing a 3 goal lead is dreadful, but I did say I'd take a draw. Be interested to hear from you Pompey fans, a fantastic game, great comeback by the home side but boy do I feel deflated

 

[thewwfc]

Winning 2-1 at half time, a scrappy game getting caught up in midfield wars and head tennis. So if that's happening, what do you do if you're Accy?

Up the physicality and bring on some giants to win those games of head tennis. And it worked, and we didn't really have a response.

And we lose 3-2, and barely troubled Accy's goalie in the second half, although we did hit the crossbar. It's really not going well at the moment.

I wouldnt say you outplayed us, just far more clinical. We dont know what to do with the ball at home, sane again today.

You were slightly on top first half, but would say 2 clear chances a piece. 2nd half we came out stronger. 70 mins you lump it to Oliver and it goes in. Que us then falling apart.

 

[PuB]

Not quite as you cleared the ball off the line twice in the first half, one that hit the post after. You lost all confidence once we scored though.

Edit: Clinical we aren’t though, which is why we are where we are in the table
