    2-0 Portsmouth. Agyemang and Bradley with the goals.

    Attendance 16,046.

    What's happening with David Connolly? Is he injured?

    David Connolly still injured Stewie.

    I'm hoping for a 3-1 Pompey win, with goals from Bondz N'Gala (and why not?!), Jed Wallace and Rickie Holmes, in front of a 15,252 crowd.

    Pompey's Ricky Holmes is top in the League Two assist league with 4 so far this season. 3 are from corners that Bondz N'Gala headed in.

    Half time score: Pompey 1 v 1 Wycombe.

    Pompey equaliser just before half time from big Pat.

    Atrocious conditions, with thunder, lightning and torrential rain. Hopefully, the ref won't abandon the match due to the dire weather.

    Match abandoned at half time as feared !

    Thank the lord I couldn't make it over there after work - the poor fans of both sides must be absolutely soaked.

    If the match is abandoned and has to be replayed then the yellows should be abandoned as well - only fair.

    Seriously! Agyemang's goal should be recorded then as well. Only fair.

    When is this game likely to be played again?

    Just got home and can confirm the ref had no option otherwise people would have been injured. I spend a lot of time in S E Asia and have experienced many a tropical monsoon but I've never seen rain like tonight's. Even the storm drains in Singapore couldn't have coped with that downpour.

    On a footballing note, Ertl really is the weak point in the side and should have been dropped by now. He must have a good contract or some hold over Guy.
