Top of the table at home to 19th.
Routine 2-0 win or maybe a banana skin.
Although Wycombe aren't winning much, they aren't losing much wither....1 defeat in their last 5

Difficult to break down and well versed in the dark arts of taking 2 minutes to make a substitution and rolling over and over for a broken fingernail. An early goal to make them come out and play a bit would be very preferable.

No need to water the pitch today. Its hacking down. A lot will depend upon how the pitch holds up as a soggy surface will benefit the more non-playing team and therefore may hinder us.
I think it is going to be stop start all match but we will come out winners after an ugly 1-0

Wet pitch and up against a physical and sneaky team. This is just the sort of game where unbeaten runs come to an end. It will say a lot about Pompey this season if we manage to win this one.

Half time 0-1 . The rest as predicted. Stop Start niggly game. Wycombe have 4 yellow cards already and their goalie has been spoken to about time wasting.

No problem. I've finished hanging the picture for the Mrs (not a euphemism), popped in to check the score and we've just equalised
Got to put some boxes in the loft now (not a euphemism either). I'll pop back on after that and we should get the second goal.

Will be interesting to read a BFTG from someone to hear whether it was a penalty at the end - reading different opinions on social media!

Fact. It was a penalty. I thought we got away with one earlier so have no complaints. Ref was whistle happy and fussy throughout the game. Good to see Pitman scoring in open play. And I was pleased to keep dry in my new seat.

Definitely a penalty for them, and they should have had one about 10 minutes earlier. We were worryingly poor today. From the first whistle we looked lacklustre and their opening goal was only a matter of time. In fairness to them, they should have been 2-0 up by half time. Most of our players had an off game, and we just about deserved a point, though having gone 2-1 up with about 5 to go, we should have closed the game out. Poor from us, especially Burgey giving away the penalty - didn't need to do that. Still, we are still undefeated - onwards and upwards

We must have seen it from the same angle!
