Another important game.

Hope no other players are lost to injury between now and Tuesday 🙏

Cooper, Tanga, Saville and Honeyman all picked up yellows today. Are any of them due a suspension?
 
It's our game in hand, and because we are seven points from the drop, it feels like the pressure has lifted slightly.

It's a shame about our injury situation, because although Pompey got smashed 5-1 at WBA today, their home record these past couple of months is excellent. It's their away form that is causing them problems. They are going to be very tough to breakdown.
 
I accept it was Luton today, but the attacking positive style of play was evident, with these new recruits fitting in well, Alex Neil.may just have changed our fortunes, or was it Gallen or was it
Livermore.

5-1 beating and in a relegation scrap has to mean their confidence is low, I can imagine the last thing they need is us in another midweek game, their 3rd in a row.
Not expecting a classic but another 1-0?

It was none of them, they didn't play today but all 3 might make the bench midweek, if the canteen ladies insists on going to bingo on Tuesday.
I hope we have cancelled training and are not letting any fit players leave the house until Tuesday.

More accidents happen in the home than anywhere else. Remember Hutch putting out the bins?
 
Two bad mistakes by the Portsmouth keeper lead to WBA's 1st 2 goals and didn't cover himself in glory for the 3rd.

More of the same on Tuesday or, hopefuly, he's dropped for Archer ;)

You never did say how you hurt your big toe, bring your boots Tuesday if you are going, must be the nearest we play to where you are.

I have to confess my big toe injury was made up to suit the narrative of the day.
I'm not available before the West Brom game.
 
As Lioninwaiting has already mentioned. Portsmouth rested 5 first team players for the away game at WBA.
Clearly going for home game points so a very much harder game for us.
Still keeping fingers crossed for a positive result. COYL!!
