    Have stayed up until 10 past midnight for us to get 30 seconds worth of coverage!

    Am bit shocked as to how BBC think West Ham's 2-0 Win is would be a better game to show than our 6 goal thriller.

    Oh come on now, we can't be the main match every week. I'm slightly amazed you're actually whining about it.

    How many weeks have we been the main match? I can't count too many.

    It was worth skipping our match so quickly, to see Cotterill shake hands with the Pompey caretaker manager. He's some bake on him!

    <cheers>I liked the pleasure on Claridge's face when asked about Saints..he's in love. He believes in us, perhaps more than I do at 2.45 on match days (the darkest time in my week).

    Coverage may have been basic but still much better than on Goals on Sunday on Sky Sports - just had the same highlights but no real comment. Couldn't wait to get back to the Prem

    Exactly.

    The FL show pick their main game before the games ko (hence how we knew that a couple of our recent games were up first). And can you really blame them for picking Hull vs West Ham? Both sides in the top 6 and Hull on good form. I'd suggest only Cardiff-Palace would have been the only other contender.

    But having then shown that main game, bang - we were straight on in the very next game.

    He was obviously still in a good mood after scoring for Gosport!

    Saints can't be the featured match every week as much as it would be nice for us. They decide on the featured game before the match, so it's no surprise that some of them are dull.

    tbf We didn't like it when they showed Brighton too much last season...every team deserve some coverage. For other reasons, they could have picked Pompey v Forest.
