I think a packed Fratton Park tomorrow will see a win and the title and heaven help me you deserve it.
Relax and enjoy.
Thanks for being a friendly foe.

Think it will happen but following the warnings from EFL old bill and the club I would imagine they will want to make an example of some poor sods if they can

I have been in a few scrapes during my lifetime including twice facing possible death. I have been involved in so many dramas and situations, including football promotions & relegation, Cup Finals and the threat of seeing our club disappear. Yet I can't work out why this particular situation has got to me in the way it has. I need this situation sorted.
It's an age thing. As I have got older I find that I tend to worry more easily about things, and you are probably the same.
I don’t think it is an age thing all I’ve had for the last few weeks is my granddaughter saying “I know we are going to blow it”

Personally I think there won't be a pitch invasion tomorrow night. I think the club will appeal to the supporters not to come on to the pitch. I think the EFL will wait until Saturday to give out medals and cups on our last day of the season. That's even if anything is settled tomorrow night but leaving it until Saturday all the necessary arrangements can be made. Hopefully we will get the necessary points but after tomorrow's game all we will get is a little 'P' next to our name in the table. Or better still a 'C' next to our name.

I disagree after my experience on Saturday with some of the younger taking any seat they wanted plus boasting about getting in without a ticket by claiming their phone wasn’t working and ignoring my requests to watch out for kids and ladies that a pitch invasion is inevitable
I think there is a certain cohort who will ignore all pleas not to invade the pitch as to them it will be a badge of honour to post it on social media

Two days off work for me. Not helped by the fact I'm on the train for part of the journey.

Get down to Pompey quite early for a mooch about and see some friends and family before having a pint or two.

Have a great trip everyone.

I'm working in London today but will be viewing on iFollow - not just listening to the radio commentary. Pompey's video coverage has been surprisingly good recently.

PUP!

Looks like I am lucky one leaving home about 6:30 with a gentle 25 minute stroll to the ground few beers with tea before I leave
