I’m not a fan of the crowd noise. I prefer it without, I don’t get why they don’t give you a choice like they do with the prem games. We are on SS main event and SS football so they still could give the option...
 
wonder if it may be more beneficial to us when it comes to empty stadiums. pompey will be used to playing in front of bigger crowds so without them they may have a psychological disadvantage.
can’t wait for friday
 
I hope they have our version of Yellow Submarine in the crowd noise mix. It did notice that they had 'On the Ball City' at Carrow Road recently.
 
Pompey have had 2 proper games away at Reading and away at Brentford U23's

We've also had 2. Away at Reading and a second game against an unnamed club (opposition's request) plus the internal 11 v 11 at the Kassam.

On another note, Rob Hall could be available if the EFL confirms a rule change this week.
 
Still worried despite our game against each other at the Ka$$am. We haven’t had as many proper competitive games in the build-up as Portsmouth.
I can’t think that playing against players you already train day to day with is as good as proper opposition but anything is better than nothing. The lack of proper game time could come home to roost as regards match sharpness. Still, it is what it is I suppose.

Both sides will be rusty, as has been witnessed in almost every club's opening game since lockdown. We were one of the fittest sides in the division this season, I don't see how we're going to massively struggle against Portsmouth in that regard on Friday. I have faith in the fitness team to continue their good work

We've had a couple of internal 11 vs 11s iirc.

Yes on Rob Hall:

 
It's all building nicely and whatever happens (playoffs are a lottery at the best of times), I think that the club has come through these last few months stronger than ever. It would be incredible to see us getting the success we deserve, but if I'm honest, I just want to see us back out there again. 99 hours to go!!!
 
Apologies if I've missed it earlier in the thread.

But does anyone know if the game on Friday is going to be shown on iFollow overseas? And if so, is it going to be included in the Season Pass or will I have to pay again?

On the one hand, it would seem reasonable that it would be (paid for 46 games on a season pass.....only got 35) but then again, the EFL needs to maximize revenue right now so they might have auctioned off the rights to another broadcaster.......

It's the Independence Day holiday here, so perfect timing - I wouldn't even need to skive off work!
 
I can't be the only one who really wants to know what the 11v11 lineups were and what the scores were!

I reckon we could all guess what the XI probably was, and barring injury I reckon it's the XI that'll start vs Portsmouth, so you'll find out in a few days
