Match Day Thread - Pompey Promotion vs Barnsley Back On Track

it happens, to loads of teams, they should ban forwards from their own teams penalty area!

 

We had that game won until McAtee did that

 

Doubt it. Clubs don't get punished for what they do against us.

 

Sorry, I disagree. We can't play well for more than 5 minute spells in games, we switch off at the worst possible times too. Put simply, we're just not good enough.

Why is that? Mixture of things imo, shocking recruitment in the summer, not remedied in January. Poor appointment of HC in Collins, as far as he's concerned I'm nothing but consistent, I've wanted him gone for knocking on 5 months. I don't think he's up to it, and the results and performances are starting to make that glaringly obvious.

Whatever happens this season, he has got to go.

 

Excellent post. Agree with every word. Uredssss!

 

The way I saw the pen, he lunged in and didn’t get the ball
Stupid really as he was going nowhere
But the player dived
Is that a pen?
I dunno, probably.

a few things I definitely don’t understand are:

how could it be that he only plays eight minutes? There were numerous stoppages in injury time. Awful refereeing. He just wanted to get off the pitch, which is ridiculous
another thing I don’t understand is that we keep making the same mistakes again and nothing seem to be done about.

Walls from free kicks and zonal marking from corners spring to mind.

21st in the form table over the last 6 games. Relegation places.

 

Overall they can hold their heads up high and we supporters have something to hang our hopes on.

Harsh to say it, considering he scored but McAtee has cost Barnsley there. But, these things happen. Not sure bringing McCart on was a good move either (is it ever a good move?).

Pompey fans throw something at the lino, swing punches at Williams from the stands, invade the pitch twice, hit (at least) one of our players on the pitch. Ten point deduction...

 

Yes, because during the game, I'm watching the game you sanctimonious, old g*mp.

 

Mcattee is a forward player for god sake.

Where were the rest of the team trying to defend at that point.

He deserves credit for being all over the bloody pitch all gamr

 

Soft pen but McAtee going to ground allowed him to fall over him. Crazy place to even try that just hold him up ffs.

 

About 38 seconds in on the left. Scum.

 

It’s no longer about performances its results we now need and have done for the last couple of weeks yet we seemingly can’t pick up points either by playing well or badly.

 

I’m calm, needed saying

 

oohhh I’ll get mi handbag

 

I'm not sure we had it won as I wouldn't have trusted us not concede again. We're so bad at the back it's becoming laughable.
However, I think at worst we'd have drawn the game.

 

Also why did he run towards our fans but instead of celebrate with them, decide to incite the home fans instead?

 

9 points from last 10 games - less than 1PPG.

no matter how well we’ve played tonight - we’ve conceded 3 goals and lost - and we’ve taken 9 points from a possible 30 over the last 10 games / which has included games against teams very near the bottom.

We’re fairly poor, the players are fairly poor and the manager also seems to be poor but he is working with a real lack of quality in my opinion. The defenders are just not good enough. They’re just not.

I think we had a pretty good 1st half ish of the season but things are evening out and we’re finishing about where we deserve to be .
