I assumed it was second yellow but just looked on the match report and it says it was a straight red. <confused>

BBC got it wrong. It was a second yellow.

Also, Shea Charles with 2 assists (and Yan Valery scoring his first goal since he scored for us against Spurs in 2019) in a 3-3 draw away to Middlesbrough.

West Brom also lost their first game without Corberan.
 
Watford's Kwadwo Baah was sent off yesterday, after running the length of the pitch to celebrate his 94th minute winner in front of the travelling Portsmouth fans, and goading the Pompey players with the Fortnite 'take the L' dance.

In a season of lows, we all need a bit of Kwadwo in our lives. Thank you, lad.

I know they've only just got out of the relegation zone again today. But I'm pretty sure the derby is back in the league next season for the first time since the 2011-2012 season! Even though Pompey are very hot and cold at the moment, in the last month they've won a game 3-0, 4-1 and won two games 4-0. That doesn't happen to a team that is going to get relegated, they've just got too many goals in them.
Just for comparison, last season we only won by 4 goals or more 3 times ourselves (partly thanks to our atrocious defensive record as we scored 4 or more goals in multiple other games).
 
Yeah I think their home form is too good for them to go down and will see them through.

Looking forward to it.
 
Their away form has been terrible. It's home form which will keep them up.
 
I've just been comparing this season's Championship table to last season's, after 26 games

Leicester 65
Ipswich 55
Saints 52
Leeds 48


Leeds 53
Burnley 52
Sheff Utd 52 (with a two point deduction)
Sunderland 50


So pretty similar, aside from Leicester's huge total. The gap between 4th and the rest is even bigger this season than it was last season.
 
Watching the Arsenal-Newcastle game. If I'm Arsenal, I'm throwing everything into getting Isak in the summer. He'd be perfect for them.
