[Johhny Blue]

Bayliss is not lightweight.

He looks like he ate one of the pies

I can't believe that shot from Shipley then.

I could do better on my weak foot 8/10 times.

 

[covcity4life]

I'd do Hiwula for Andreu. (Hopefully it means Andreu scores a screamer and makes me look silly!)

Nah andreu playing well imo

 

[jordan210]

Shipley shot miles wide.

 

[Grendel]

Shipley ooor again really

 

[Gazolba]

I think Robins has told them not to score before half time becaue he doesn't want to spark them into life,

Come on Nick, We're not all at the Ricoh

 

[Grendel]

His a liability as we have to alter the formation

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

If we got it right every time we'd still be in the prem

We've scored about 3 goals from open play all season...

 

[jordan210]

Bayliss should just run down the middle.


They don’t like it up em !

 

[covcity4life]

Maybe but we have had ball in some dangerous positions

Overall performance is ok

Would prob keep same till 60th min if nil nil

Would take Shipley off for Jones and have 2 inside forwards cutting in with him and Jones like Robert and robbed do for Bayern once we do make a sub. Then hiwula for andreu and gon2 up

He's far too deep, it means we have nothing up front. Nobody playing off JCH or making runs.

You can too Andreu is a player but not in this position. He’s a number ten who wants to feed pacey wingers/striker. Not JCH or Shipley

But is that him dropping to deep or been told to be deep.

We have the tendency of being deep

 

[Grendel]

Another terrible free kick by Doyle

 

[covcity4life]

Hyam a great ball playing defendrt

 

[Nick]

Why do we play quick free kicks to somebody who is marked and instantly put them under pressure?

 

[jordan210]

If we could pass, we would be a good team. Way to many wayward passes

 

[Nick]

JCH is dropping very deep, but Andreu is even deeper.

 

[GaryMabbuttsLeftKnee]

Doyle mistake. 0-1 Portsmouth

Injury time goal for Pompey

Shipley tried to play it through doyle who is marked and loses possession, a common theme this half!

1-0 pompey

 

[lifeskyblue]

Suicide ball from Shipley to Doyle...but good finish

I assume that’s Shipley adding balance to the side

Wait 'til we get a pen and he decides to take it

 

[David O'Day]

Foul?

Fucking embarassing. Hospital ball galore.

 

[covcity4life]

Same old bullshit. Doyle too slow. Great finish

Poor end to a solid half

 

[Nick]

This is the difference, they take a shot from there. We try to pass the fucker with no strikers.

 

[jordan210]

Bugger that’s what happens when you shoot from outside the box !

 

[ccfcway]

don't deserve that at all. Regroup at HT

 

[covcity4life]

Not sure how long we can carry Shipley. Tho that was Doyle's fault just as much if not more. Very slow reaction

 

[Nick]

Hiwula for Andreu at HT.Can't afford to play this deep sitting nonsense.

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

You don't take your chances, you get punished.

 

[sw88]

Our pass completion can’t look too good tonight can it?

Too many not turned up thus far

JCH had our best chance and lacked composure. Andreu anonymous. Shipley frustrating. Sterling struggling since getting booked and Pompey trying their best to draw fouls from him with the potential of s second yellow.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Small margins, Chaplin scores that Saturday, JCH scores tonight. It'll come. a tough run of games I'd be pleased with 4 points from.
