I see no ships; only hardships. V Pompey away, Tues 28th Feb. 7-45.

Bishop has been outstanding today. A really good striker and that’s a superb finish. Best player on the pitch by miles.

Morecambe is a massive game. Massive. We have a tricky run here. Hanging on for 6th is going to be more difficult than many make out.
Especially after the highly anticipated disaster at Accrington.

Bad night but it’ll be reet, mate.

They are just so much sharper all over the park. Rarely a missed pass or control. Crosses all dangerous. First to every ball. Faster, more aggressive. Worrying. Poor do tonight.

Fair play for the backheel finish...

Our midfield has been bested today. I suspect this will be a problem for the remainder of the season if we can’t get some more bite in there. Morley and Dempsey and Lee been given a run around. And lack the tools to do anything about it.

Well, I assume this means Evatt won’t be manager of the month

It’s two abysmal performances in a row. And post Morecambe we’ve got Ipswich and Sheffield Weds.

There isn’t room for many more errors and it doesn’t take much to pick up few or even no points in March. Play like we have last two and we won’t get a single thing.

I'd be very interested to see a graph of where we've had free kicks here. I can't seem to remember us getting a free kick in the opposition half.

That Dempsey miss was a killer. We’d of seen out a 2-0
Pretty much this. Think this is only the second time this season we haven’t won when scoring first.

Morecambe will be a test and it’s important we don’t let a blip become a wobble.

Since Kachunga came on we haven’t made it out of our own half. Not saying it’s Kachunga, more just from about that time. Nlundulu hasn’t offered anything either.

Play like we did the 30-odd before that and we’ll get lots. It’ll be reet.

This is disgraceful, utterly inexcusable.

Warnings were there last game. Just turned up this game with better finishing.

Wembley will be our undoing.

Our front two were the only players actually performing. Shola change i understood but it killed us.

Nlundulu looks an absolute pudding to me. Early days but I’m not seeing it.

We've had a good few including one really memorable one from Morley :-)

FFS ref, how has he not blown for those N'lundulu ones, right in front of him, shirt pull and a trip.

Feels like the referees had a big hand in Pompey's night tonight.

Heads dropped after the first - we should have taken that on the chin and fought for the point. Really poor, but it’s allowed. Any talk of automatics is done now but we’re not winning every game, every week. Need to get up for the weekend now.
