[premactopool]

Just had a message from an Oxford fan mate , he passed the Pompey coach on the M40 today - useless piece of information but I thought I’d share it ️

 

[Plumbs]

Nice start-quick nip to fine leg but this innings could run.

We need a win here to get us back on track and keep us within touch of the top 6.

I worry about you bonny lad!!!!

 

[1966_and_all_that]

If Portsmouth really are a class act with set pieces then I feel we might have to be free-scoring to keep up with them.

 

[Bob Hatton]

2 2 with us taking the lead twice only to be pegged back

 

[RossendaleSeasider]

2-1 Pool

 

[Tangerinewookiee]

3-1 pool for me. strong performance with Madine scoring 2.

 

[62years&counting]

2-2

 

[straightatthewall]

7-3. Hat-trick for Turton.

 

[Pauls_Boutique]

Going to be a tough game this one. After last Tuesdays 2nd half meltdown it appears we either win or lose games so we need to start turning all these narrow defeats into draws if that makes sense.

I’d be happy with a draw and impressed with a win tonight.

 

[Cleveleys boy]

3-2 Pool..

 

[BlackpoolsFinest]

I'll be happy with a draw.

 

[Scratcher67]

It's impossible to call.

On paper should be a Pompey win, maybe 2-1 or 3-1 ... but it depends which team NC picks and whether they 'turn up'. We are capable of beating any team in the division. I just hope Ballard, Garbutt, Gabriel and Yates are on there.

 

[Tangerine Trev]

Tough game tonight. Have said several prayers this afternoon.... should I sacrifice a goat as well ?

 

[voyeur]

Yes tough game - Pompey have had a good run of results away from home, winning at Lincoln, Ipswich and Sunderland in recent weeks. 9 goals scored in those 3 games.

We need to be better in the final third.

 

[1966_and_all_that]

7-3. Hat-trick for Turton.

I think you're confusing Blackpool v Portsmouth with Real Madrid v Eintracht Frankfurt, 1960. However, our game is in League 1 - not the European Cup - and Bloomfield Rd isn't Hampden Park. It could be, give or take the odd 132,000 but it isn't.

 

[Fatboy]

Tough game tonight. Have said several prayers this afternoon.... should I sacrifice a goat as well ?

Have you got any spare goats, so I can sacrifice one too ?

 

[TangerineArmy]

7-3. Hat-trick for Turton.

That is a stupid prediction.... they won't score 3

 

[Micky Walsh]

2-1 Pool if we can keep and increase the recent standard, can only see us getting better from here, the two new central defenders are making a difference as is Dougall, up the mighty!

 

[Scaramanga]

Anything can happen tonight, we could play them off the park and get beat or we could stink the place out and win. L1 is a box of frogs this season. We get something from the game, a draw wouldn’t be a disaster.

 

[Kip]

We're scoring lots of goals at the moment but it's all about keeping them out tonight so I think he'll go with at least one of Turton/Husband.
I would have the same team as Saturday but with Yates back in and Anderson down the left.

 

[straightatthewall]

That is a stupid prediction.... they won't score 3

I'm just naturally pessimistic.

 

[Insider]

I think Gabriel and Garbutt might start tonight but Turts and Hubby could be back on Saturday.

 

[1966_and_all_that]

The longest reigning League leaders v the longest reigning Cup holders. A sort of super Community Shield.

[BlackpoolsFinest]

Turton returning I can sort of understand.

Husband's return I cannot.

 

[voyeur]

Where are Ward and Garbutt?

Might explain Husband...

 

[GJJW]

I can only presume this match has come too soon for Garbutt.

 

[Insider]

Bit negative that.
I wonder if Garbutt and Ward are injured?

 

[20togo]

Well I hope that Madine is carrying a knock otherwise it looks a poor decision to leave him out imo. We'll see.

 

[BlackpoolsFinest]

Where are Ward and Garbutt?

Might explain Husband...

Ah, I didn't notice that.

 

[Bob Hatton]

I think Gabriel and Garbutt might start tonight but Turts and Hubby could be back on Saturday.

Unfortunately not

 

[TANGERINETOWERPOWER]

As 20's says we will see...not confident with Turton and Husband in the back 4...love being proved wrong...

 

[voyeur]

Well I hope that Madine is carrying a knock otherwise it looks a poor decision to leave him out imo. We'll see.

He was dreadful at Donny remember.

 

[SeasideKurt]

Turton returning I can sort of understand.

Husband's return I cannot.

I can't. It's a really poor selection for me. Hopefully we win but the way Turton and Husband played last week should have meant they are lucky to get on the bench.

 

[Dark_Side_of_the_Lune]

Why no Ward? Unless he’s injured that’s an odd one. Let’s see how Robson and Dougall pair up I guess.
Interested to see how many of Turton’s passes find a man after looking at his last player map.

 

[Chunkylad]

Goal Machine on the bench worries me most. This is the set up from the first part of the season that just didn't get it right.
However, lets see - in Critch and all that.....
