    What are your views on today’s game.
    How do you think it went and do you think it could have been better today?

    Good draw for us, Hoadie_BOI, and a great goal from David Nugent, is all I can say

    Yeah after the last few games that was a great one and was a shame you didn't win it, But I have to say Burnley is a hard place to go and get something and you have done it.

    I was listening to the Burnley commentary - they started off by praising Steve Cotterill and then carried on by saying who out of our team they would like. Nugent obviously, they love him there.

    Apparently in the first half our players looked like they were "on the beach" but Cotts must have yelled at them because they came out for the second half "fired-up" - this is from the Burnley commentary.

    Anyway at least a point is fine and we are still in 14th position. But how did Jamie Ashdown get booked?

    If I am right Dave Nugent went on loan there last season.
    I actually have to say it is a shame that the lad don't score more as when he was younger, He scored loads at Preston and that was in the Championship and in my eyes he has got better, But he gets less, Does he set up many now instead?

    I feel that he is a very unselfish player and will set up a team mate to score. He was more prolific than he has been this year - that was his 13th goal today. But whether he will stay with us is unlikely. He'll have to take a pay cut if he does so will probably go off elsewhere come the summer. At least we still have the King!

    King Kanu, Kanu
    He's older than me and you
    His real age is 62
    King Kanu Kanu
    The Pompey fans sing that to him - to the tune of Que Sera, Sera.

    Oh I thought you were talking about him, But I thought you had made a spelling mistake or something when you put King.

    Unfortunately, I can't see Nugent staying at Pompey in the summer, but where will we find a championship standard striker who will score us goals?!? I'm worried about next season in honesty.

    There is a chance that Nuge could stay if we get sold - the new company would have some ambition. There is no chance he will stay if Balu stays in charge. Just my opinion.

    I imagine that Cotts has got a whole list of players that he would like. I'm not so worried about next season - I think Balu will sell and CSI will invest (not too much but enough to get us going again). How's that for positivity?

    I hope we can hold on to him. This is his level - a Championship goal machine.

    Agree Devo, BUT he should be knocking in at least 20 goals a season in this division. He has had enough chances. He could/possibly should have scored again yesterday. Had a one-on-one chance against their keeper, which could have won the match for us.
