I’ll take any sort of win tbh.
I thought just before the start we may lose 3-0, now we are 3-0 up, unreal!
Mark Hateley and Alan Biley made my favourite season.

What a great result for Pompey but more than that a terrific TEAM performance..I'd give a 10 to every player!!

For the record..Kamara has won my admiration with his recent performances. His whole attitude and skill set has
improved dramatically, well done him!!

Shame Derby got a 90th minute winner but Bolton can only go level with us now if they win all their games in hand which they seem to be making hard work of so there is a bit of me thinking this is the year….

Bolton play one of their games in hand on Tuesday @Cambridge

next weekend Blackpool vs Bolton and Barnsley vs Derby

real chance for Pompey to power on if they can get a win at Charlton.

Tuesday 27th: Derby play their game in hand at home to Charlton and Bolton play their second of three games in hand away at Wigan.

It should become a lot clearer over the next 10 days. Pompey can only concentrate on their own games ....

When the pressure was on we responded well as a team you can’t ask anymore than that I will be interested in a review of the game from fans there. So pleased we are doing well despite all of the setbacks we’ve had from injuries. Reading have got some good players and have been on good form so makes the result even more impressive

The difference seems to be that he releases the ball more quickly now. Where as before he would take a couple of touches to much and lose the moment!

If I'm being fair Reading looked the better team up until we scored after which they pretty much threw in the towel
Kamara was almost unplayable today as the season has progressed he has become better as has Lane
I think that also Bishop today showed what he brings to the team leading the line and Raggett again showed he is not the liability some think he is as he dominated the back line with a great deal of composure on the ball when needed

Still some way to go, of course, but impressed how the team has responded given the number of injuries of late. As for the chasing pack, they seem largely intent on tripping over themselves.

Was at the cinema and from the stats looked like we weren’t the best first half. Turned my phone off. Imagine my joy when I see we won 4-1!

Will not be bettered as Reading took their full allocation and we sold out apart from Derby no one else will do that
