    Well after last nights turn around,we must take something from the pompey game.

    The famous saying never change a winning side<party>

    Will he keep the same side?

    Will he change the side.

    I hope he leaves Gerkin in goal for sure,what with DJ messing up on the previous two games.Fair play having the bottle to drop him.May be the kick up the backside he needed.

    One thing for sure it sounded a good solid display last night.

    The fans that went deep down must have wondered how many Lesta would put past us.

    Nicky Maynard price has gone up,let the bidding begin.

    A draw Saturday looks a likely outcome.

    Has KM turned the corner? or will it be back to the drawing board come Saturday afternoon.:emoticon-0120-doh:

    Will be an interesting game. I think we'll be up for it, just a little disappointed that I can't make it.

    Me too. Leicester are a squad of mostly newbies who haven't gelled yet. We've got a very strong defence but Maynard is a lethal force - hope he's sold this week. <laugh>

    In Maynard we've got one of the league's joint top scorers,he's on fire,got a point to prove,I think there is more to come Saturday,especially as the rest of the boys feel the same way.

    Could be our first home win but Pompey are a good side and as said,we are in for an interesting game.....

    I've always had a soft spot for Pompey after 'Arry bled the team dry. They're a testament to real football fans, who will stick with their team through good times and the recent bad times.

    Given that they're still a force in the Championship I'm going to say 2-1 to them, or at best a 1-1 draw. If we win again against strong competition then it'll be a real turning point for us and all those who wanted Millen out has better have some good excuses.

    Wasn't it Bristol city who ended our clean-sheet streak last season??
    I think we'll win, but all my predictions have been wrong so far so.....

    It will be interesting to see if we play 451 at home on Saturday I am betting we will and it kind of suits us as it protects the defence And in Adomah Maynard and Ryce we have the perfect forward thinking player for this formation.
    I reckon 2-1 to Bristol city
    We will then do our usual trick and Lose 4 nil at doncaster

    I hope the great win last night gives us all a confidence boost, I'm going for a 3-1 win on Saturday, both for the CITY and Macclesfield. One plus side for the Portsmouth supporters... you can't beat a Pompey kebab!

    The confidence gained from last night's victory is massive.
    Don't know what you guys think, but we seem to be a good counter-attacking side.
    Problems seem to happen when we go behind because we have to force the game. It also does not help having a lack of leaders on the pitch.
    The "big centre-half" is still a must.

    Might I recommend you sign Ibrahima Sonko - tall centre back, and what a talent <laugh>

    I do like Albert Adomah though. Very pacy forward, and weighs in with a goal or two.
