Well, the sun is shining in Berkshire, and I hope it is in Portsmouth.I don't think that I have felt so excited before a match since the first Checkatrade final. I am still trying to forget the last one! The only sad thing is that we can't be there - what an atmosphere there would have been.

In a way, Charlton winning on Tuesday did us a favour. It is unlikely that neither Oxford nor Charlton win, so we know that a draw is not going to be enough for Pompey; we have to try and win the game. The mission is simple; the execution not so easy.

The mentality for this game should be come out and convincingly win it in the first half, if we sit on a draw or a one goal lead I fear we will lose it. Comfortable lead in the first half is what we need.

Agreed. They have v good strikers and we will do very well to stop them scoring at least once. I think that we will need to score at least twice and probably more to win.

Yes they have two good quality Strikers but their defence is rather leaky. We need to score early and then we will see how good they are!

Let's hope he doesn't do any silly tackles

I have been watching too much Champions League/Premiership football. I feel like I’m watching my village team. So depressing.

Stanley look up for it and motivated, we look uninterested and waiting for the season to end.

As bad as anything under Jackett with a let-off at the end of this dire half just to underline the matter

However, didn't Bishop take it well...we will never see Marquis do anything like it.

Afraid we are just not good enough...let's have a good clear out and start afresh. Take off Williams and Marquis for Byers and Hiwula, can't be worse. 8)

He took it well because Whatmough failed to block
