    You need to fear the man mountain that is Sonko, Matt. He has been in fine form since joining us.

    " Feeling confident with Cotterill gone & facing Sonko "

    Sonko has been absolutely terrific since he joined us, one of the best free transfers we've had in years.

    " Reckon we'll get at least a draw "

    Based on what ?

    You've lost your last 3 away games and you drew 0-0 with bottom of the table, horrific Bristol City.

    I'd usually fancy us to win, HOWEVER its many years since we put together a decent run of results in a row. We build momentum, then the wheels come off !
    Not entirely sure how the game will go, I'm convinced we're the better side of the 2, however its a case of showing that on the pitch.

    Rarely see us at home, just got a feeling we're still better set up to play away from home rather than at home.

    Never a fan of posting arrogant comments on forums, these comments often come back to bite us. I agree we have a decent side and look much better than we did earlier in the season, but why SHOULD we be winning these games !? The championship is one of the toughest leagues around. Anyone can and will beat anyone ! Look at last season, Scunthorpe beat QPR very well at Glanford Park.

    i dont necessarily being top of the league i mean that if we win at least 3/4 of our next 4/5 games then we will be in a great position. theres nothing arrogant about that, its called being optimistic and if you really think my comments on here are going to affect us on the pitch then somethings clearly wrong!

    Sorry Tractor Boys, but Sonko is a complete donkey - even Kanu could get the better of him in a 'one on one' situation <laugh>

    I don't think you've been arrogant at all in your post and I agree that on paper we should win it by a coupe of goals. However I just have this feeling that Pompey may cause a shock and Norris is bound to score against his old club.

    Sonko is terrible. He started off decent down here, but after a few games his form suddenly dropped and was the only man who didn't even make the bench.

    Based on the fact that we've massively improved the last couple of games, especially in our second half performance. We just ended Barnsleys 7 match unbeaten run & look a lot more solid at the back, and decent going forward now. Okay, its far from perfect, but we're certainly a lot better than we were at the start of the season & when we played Bristol City. 2 months ago.

    Can't see you getting many past us.

    Definitely have reason to feel optimistic going into this which always makes me nervous. We have had some decent results and would have taken points away at Boro and Cardiff but we should have won those really. Hopefully our home form makes sure dropped points elsewhere do not affect us.

    2-1 Chopra, Bullard. Varney.

    This coming from a team that actively persued David Norris for 6 months. Sonko has done more in half a dozen matches for Town than the headless chicken done in 2 years! I certainly know which one I prefere in my team.

    It's nice that others seem to know better than us how our players are performing.

    I can see them getting a draw out of this unfortunately. This is predominately based on my dislike for Portsmouth FC as I want us to stuff them.

    **** ground, cheated to win the FA Cup and they have the most annoying bell (end) ringing fool in football. Redknapp & Cotterill are two of the biggest ****s in football as well.

    How the **** did they manage to offer Norris a 3 year deal on more money than we offered? Not arsed he's gone but it all stinks.
