Massive win, made even sweeter by their disallowed goal.

Harsh. Understandably over-excited.

How can anyone say we were poor? Playing inform team that could have leapfrogged us

Battled well. Great defebsivly snf some sparks atrwcking when we could

 

[Nick]

Who was their number 12? He was dog shit.

 

[mark82]

Just seen the Sunderland penalty shout back. To be fair, you see them given.

I assume maths wasn't your strongest subject in school

Lol let’s work it out

we’re on 64
3 place 59

that is 5 win game in hand we’re 8 clear correct ?

 

[Johhny Blue]

Since we lost to Shrewsbury on 21st December we have dropped 6 points,

That's Meltdown numbers on here

Tbf Pompey are on same number of games as us.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

7 wins from the remaining 11 should do it and that's assuming we were to lose more than we've lost all season.

 

[Johhny Blue]

21 points still needed yet, confident but not complacent is the way.

Let me enjoy my complacency. I've been saying for weeks that we'll finish top with points to spare. I see no reason to change my mind.

How many games this season have we scored in the first five minutes now ? It's far to regular to be pure coincidence now. And I have to hold my hands up and say McFadz was immense. I wasn't impressed by his start to his season but he's now a rock for Hyam and Rose to work around and gives the wing backs the confidence to move forward without weakening the defence. Only player today that seemed to look leggy towards the end was O'Hare. Perhaps swapping him and Shippers for the next game may help him recover for the run-in ?

Enjoy today and we go again next week at Ipswich. #PUSB

11 left mate

 

[Sick Boy]

Love to see our defensive record since going 3 at the back, imagine it's easily the best in the division

Or the country

 

[fellatio_Martinez]

They literally just talked about cov solely for 15 mins

I didn't see any Sunderland bias from Sky. Apart from Phillips crying it was fine. The commentators were quite positive towards us.

You just answered your own question

Some might quibble with your assumption that a game in hand is the same as 3 points.

The handball by Ozturk was a pen. Their man going through Godden was a pen. I think it balanced out

No game in hand on third

Our fans r just crazy. Always the victims of media and refs

I think I agree with that, though not entirely sure.

It was given until the ref had the sense to over rule the linesman who couldn't see because he had sun in his eyes.

A lot of refs would have just given it.

When i did oredictor i had us to win league with 7 wins and 6 draws feom last 13

That was with draws to rotheram sunderland and ipswhich btw

 

[sw88]

More info Steve?

apologies. Seems I turned into Clive for a moment, leaving you all to guess what was happening :emoji_laughing:

I think this was when their man went down very softly under a Fadz challenge claiming an elbow

I agree, ifs and buts. We should get too carried away with the game in hand but anything we get from that is a bonus.

The defender going through Godden would have been a foul anywhere else on the pitch.

Weird how refs deploy different rules in the box sometimes.

Bollocks. Neither was a penalty.

 

[David O'Day]

The sunderland pen shout wss never happen. Phillips is just a bitter fud

I can't see us losing 4 games. 6 wins should do it.

Before the match it was pretty dire. The way they talked about Sunderland would have said they where playing a mid table team.

 

[fellatio_Martinez]

 

[fernandopartridge]

Thought they were weaker after making their substitutions.

Agreed, per my earlier post we were more comfortable when they went 2 up top but having said that they didn't make a single chance from open play otherwise that I recall

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

13 league goals conceded since switched to 5 at the back

 

[Otis]

Bollocks. Neither was a penalty.

For both there wasn't much in it.

I would have been surprised if either had have been given. He Godden one would have been given as a foul by many refs though elsewhere on the pitch though.
