    Love how up for it we are and not bothered in the slightest by the occasion. Well deserved lead and I expect us to crack on second half.

    You fully deserve the lead so far. Looked the better side and you look like you want this more than we do at the moment.

    Good feed Roger cheers. Looks like the lads really like the bigger pitch as the movement of the ball and players finding space to collect passed just suits us down to the ground.

    Portsmouth were poor first half. Expect them to come out all guns blazing second half

    Good first 45 and we got the goal we deserved. Just need to keep it tight. Get through first 10 mins of second half. As the half progresses and the game opens up they have to commit so we should look to catch them on the break. Faint hearts win f*ck all...

    O9 smothering Curtis even though Morgan is spending most of his time on the centerline of the pitch. Honeyman, Morgan, James winning everything that comes their way. Pompey was very physical with Morgan early, set him off I think, several shots on goal for him.

    Sunderland will win, Pompey always lose when they start like that.

    The co commentator is a joke however, I've never heard a more one sided biased, effort and I've listened to Geoffrey Boycott on many an occasion.
