    Not sure about extra time. I thought both teams were average and looked tired. As fir the fans... some Premier league teams must be looking at that thinking “how can we get support like that”

    Absolutely gutted. I saw it as a cup final. Much more gutted than against City in the league cup as it was one we could win. Did don’t expect to beat city(not saying I expected to beat Pompey but had a lot more expectation than against city)

    People can call it “tin pot” all they want. I’m gutted! Just hope the side can get it back fir the league games

    Absolutely - If you remove his goal and his penalty and show his finishing from the weekend everyone would think he was another Altidore (trust me you don't want to know!!) - took his goal very well though and his penalty. As I say - Twat!!

    Peanuts in today's mega rich football elite but in our current situation a decent wedge so well done Jack and the lads.
    As is said, every little helps

    Aye peanuts but, in league one terms, it’s a years wage for an above average player so not bad.

    Sure Some supermarket coined the “every little helps” first mind....

    And the fact you are playing your biggest play-off rival just adds to the spice!

    I still think you'll win the P/O's.

    I remember Van Aanholt having similar mares to Hume where he wasn't getting enough help and couldn't pull his weight, he turned out alright.

    Hume is a very good player in the making, he has faults obviously, but he has been hung out to dry, by a back three and midfield who look like they have never heard of the system they are being asked to play.. The coaching at this club is dire, and a major major worry. If it does not improve we will never get out of this league until it does..

    I’m just reading the post I replied to, I don’t have an opinion on Hume, he’s played maybe 5 games and been poor, even hooked at half time. Just thought the poster was talking rubbish at the time.

    I wouldn’t like to say, sometimes I like it when you do your Agony Aunt posts on here so when you talk football I get confused .

    He needs help both on the pitch and in terms of signing another LB, madness really to be starting the season with him as the only one for his position. I've liked the look of him in the past and despite a bad start I think there's a good player in there but he needs help.
