    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.

    Looks like things got a little heated.

    All sent off for racism towards a ball boy.

    Argentinians are kind of pricks aren't they?

    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).

    Pompey putting 4 past Swansea has set the benchmark for our FA Cup game with Swansea.

    Yeah I think their home form is too good for them to go down and will see them through.

    Looking forward to it.

    Didn’t realise Pompey are hovering around the relegation places……big game today for them away to Sunderland.

    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.

    Two shots, two goals. No possession. Where is the fun in that?

    Watching any other PL game is like watching football from another planet compared to our Sunday League performances.Perhaps the PL should just cancel all our results and just chuck us out of the league for tarnishing the brand.
