    Great rivalry between Pompey and Plymouth, due to the fact they are both Naval cities - due to be resumed next season :1980_boogie_down:

    They recently lost to Exeter. We can rub some sea salt into that wound.

    They've just had to issue more tickets to us so should be over 1000 going.

    I reckon we should/could win this one.

    2-1 to PFC - goals from Ricky Hill and Jed Wallace.

    Terrible defending for Argyle's goal but a cool finish by Jed to level the scores

    1-1 at Half time.

    This ref likes to leave the play to flow, there's been quite a few challenges in the last few minutes which most other referees would probably give.
