I-0 to Pompey after 9 minutes.

Free kick, headed down by Ben Chorley, hammered in by Jake Jervis.

Can we defend the lead for 81 minutes ?!

That's the big question isn't it.

 

[pompeymeowth]

Or try to score a second...

 

[Wooperts_duck]

Joe Devera off injured after a nasty late foul from one of the Exeter players. Dirty, dirty little Grecians.........

Sonny Bradley on.

 

[3rd eye]

0-1 at half time.

Several shots on goal as well - (makes a change)

 

[Wooperts_duck]

Half time whistle.

Pompey leading 1-0.

Sounds like we are playing well.

Keep it up for the second half lads

 

[3rd eye]

We'll be playing against the wind 2nd half - maybe lady luck is there and she'll turn it around?

1,442 Pompey fans at St. James Park today - very impressive turn out as usual.

1,442 Pompey fans at St. James Park today - very impressive turn out as usual.

And this is just one of the reasons clubs in this league love playing Pompey

Just seen that Peter Crouch has scored for Stoke at St. Marys against his old club.

Agent Crouch eh ?

 

[3rd eye]

Just heard a comment about Fogden on Pompey Player - "he chases everything on the pitch, he'd chase a crisp packet if it was there". Sounds like he's living up to his reputation.

Island Echo ‏@islandecho 6m

BREAKING: Reports suggest a mainland armed Police unit are currently on the Island. Indicators suggest an armed incident currently happening


So what's going on then Wooperts?

 

[pompeymeowth]

Someone's escaped from Parkhurst maybe?

It's not me, 3rd eye

I'll let you know if I hear anything.

Usually, the only exciting thing that happens over here; that makes the papers; is when someone is reported on having taken their book back a few days late to the Library, and gets fined. I kid you not.

Jervis is limping - might have to come off. Barcham probably coming on.

 

[3rd eye]

Strangely - Barcham on for Holmes

 

[Wooperts_duck]

Jake Jervis limping, but we bring on Andy Barcham for Rickie Holmes.

Now Jake off, and Big Pat on.

 

[3rd eye]

3rd sub - Big Pat on for Jervis.

He had to come off, couldn't run.

 

[Wooperts_duck]

Three and a half minutes in to time added on, and we concede a goal.

1-1 final score.

Why can't we ever defend a lead ?????????
