It's on TV. We never play well on TV. But Pompey, being a contrary place......... we might just win this time
We got a draw against someone when we were on TV while we were in the Championship. I think it may have been Leicester.
There was a game we did very well in on tv a few years ago. It was a cup game so I don't know if that counts.
It's all part of the circle of life 1898 Another generation is going to come behind us and have no real clue how we came to at this point and how near we were to non-existence.
Chesterfield lost at home to Mansfield and were held by Northampton. If they're not firing on all cylinders we may just sneak a point (or maybe three if I can be forgiven for being greedy).

We've started off well? 2 chances so far. If we can only keep going like this................. We're keeping the home fans quiet
Just got a live stream - Lovely shot by Jake Jervis, pushed onto the post by Chesterfield keeper Lee.
Watching on TV, it would be fair to say we are more than holding our own. Only a wonder save and the post have kept this level. We are looking well organised and Toumani Diagouraga is the star of the show.
0-0 at half time, and we appear to be outplaying the league leaders ! What a shame Jake's shot hit the woodwork. More of this for the second half please Pompey.
