Portsmouth v Blackpool Official Matchday Thread 20.02.21

[Mark_GT]

That’s what I was thinking, Kaikai just behind Yates, which might give us a little more control in the midfield.

Blimey. Crystal ball!

 

[Yarmouth Seasider]

Mitchell on for Simms

 

[Insider]

It's not the ref's first game, it's his first season. He's ref'd quite a lot of games and only issued one red card.

 

[As_Cold_As_The_Rockies]

Why is that not a yellow

 

[Albert Ross]

Makeweight in the purchase of Robertson but a really good player

Perhaps needs a different partner with him ?

As someone said a back pass Barry, might as well wear his boots backwards.

 

[Costero Poderoso]

i am critch

 

[TangerinePeel]

Definitely a booking that for fyck sake ref

 

[Chesterbfc]

Defender on for me negatively

 

[Jakeyr]

Stewart has gone from the Saviour of BFC to Backpass Barry

 

[tommytwojags]

How can Harness not be booked?

 

[Come on the Pool!]

Good to see he took Simms off as he was on a yellow

 

[Yarmouth Seasider]

Accrington 1 Shrewsbury 0
Peterborough 2 Wimbledon 0

 

[TangerinePeel]

Stewart has gone from the Saviour of BFC to Backpass Barry

Don't think I've seen anyone claim Stewart is our saviour, his signing was met with a bit of negativity actually as he's a defensive midfielder

 

[62years&counting]

Overall an even first half. Pool still lack flair and goals. Ward playing well. Simms not the answer up front. Ref terrible.

If he's one person's saviour it doesn't mean he's another's...

Ward looks full of pace today tbf

 

[Scaramanga]

Pool going nowhere here

 

[Memphisboy]

If he's one person's saviour it doesn't mean he's another's...

He’s not an upgrade on Dougall and Ward together. Don’t know why he messes around with it that was the duo who played when we went on a good run. Get Lubala on for Yates

 

[1966_and_all_that]

We don't show much by way of intent. If Yates wants to play in midfield then get another striker on cos that's what we're lacking.

 

[Macseasider]

It's solid at the back but painful and lacking any impact going forward. Story of the season I suppose.

 

[TangerineBear]

We always just seem to give up trying in the second half.. Hope I'm proved wrong but we don't look like scoring if we played until midnight.
Pompy dirty buggers playing tricks

 

[tommytwojags]

Nobody in the middle. How are we going to score

 

[Macseasider]

What a woeful pass by Yates.

 

[BFCAleman]

One up front ffs !! Why not lubala up front ?

 

[tangysider]

I am happy at the moment as holding a team in play offs at their gaff

 

[hertfordseasider]

Wards natural position is out wide and he seems to be enjoying it today. We only really need one defensive midfielder, we desperately lack that creative spark there.

 

[Old_Laytonian]

We don't show much by way of intent. If Yates wants to play in midfield then get another striker on cos that's what we're lacking.

I think we’re lacking a striker on the subs bench

 

[Loco]

Why do we never cross the ball? Back to the halfway line again.

 

[Mark_GT]

Sullay's our stand out player today so far. His through balls are being wasted though.

 

[Memphisboy]

What a crap ball from Yates, most overrated player. Draws aren’t any good we have to go for it. If only we’d gone for Lee Johnson when he was available, a manager with something about him rather than a schoolteacher

 

[Macseasider]

Ward and Gabriel get it from their corner flag back to the CB in our half. Absolutely hate that. Painful

 

[HetzkeBlaster]

Liverpoolesque that last minute of play, shame the cross didn’t come off

 

[Wizaard]

Kaikai has played some lovely balls in that our players have failed to take in and make something of them.

 

[1966_and_all_that]

Why press home an attack when you can just pass it backwards and keep possession?

 

[Stanah]

Very poor going forward for the last 40 mins or so

 

[Critchknows]

I think Kaikai has looked excellent behind the striker so far this half . A bit of clever creativity that we have been lacking.

 

[Scaramanga]

What the fuck is that

 

[TangerinePeel]

Ward is ** everything up hes attempting

 

[Ormergod]

Bit more movement when we have the ball in the middle.no options

 

[62years&counting]

Unfortunately, Critchley didn't address our problems in midfield and up front in January.

 

[Stanah]

Can't help feeling that we have the quality, just lacking the tactics to attack

 

[Scaramanga]

We need a free kick late on and a garbut special

 

[1966_and_all_that]

We look scared to death to do anything adventurous.

 

[premierdream2010]

We need a free kick late on and a garbut special

Come on Critchley get ward off and virtue on

 

[Seasideforever]

Nobbers comedy gold

 

[Lee65]

Portsmouth player hits the deck and gets free kick shocker

 

[Hertsseasider]

Nobbers miss 2 pens

 

[Yarmouth Seasider]

Nobbers miss 2 penalties one after the other

 

[Come on the Pool!]

Ward hitting it to Row Z in the stand

 

[Loco]

I think NC needs putting on a goalscoring bonus.
