+++ 03/07/20 L1 Play Off Semi Final: Leg 1 - Pompey v OUFC+++

[Sarge]

Mickey Quinn was an artist at it though unlike Ronan Curtis.

agree 100%

 

[SteMerritt]

To be pedantic ,they do , but don't count double in the event of an aggregate tie. Otherwise we lost 1-0 tonight

Pedancy of the highest order.

Assume it was Taylor got the positive test then?

Assume it was Taylor got the positive test then?

What makes you say that? Not got RadOx on.

 

[OUFC94]

I know it’s very early but I don’t think anyone would have predicted this score at half time in the wycombe fleetwood match

 

[NorthWestOx]

What makes you say that? Not got RadOx on.

They said Him and Browne hadn't trained for 3 weeks.

 

[Wallop]

Assume it was Taylor got the positive test then?

Nope

 

[AbbeyOx]

bloody hard watching that on my small screen.
not spectacular but wasn’t expecting it to be.
bring on monday. reckon we might just do this

 

[Yellow River]

I think this game will have done us a lot of good. We’ll improve in the the 2nd leg.

All to play for!

 

[DannyW]

God the sky coverage is rubbish, and why if you've paid do you have to tolerate ads

 

[NorthWestOx]

Hopefully, its an omen.

We drew with Rushden 1-1 in the 1st leg of the play-offs in 2010, then won the home leg 2-0.

The problem with sky is they also know f**k all about us apparently Jim smith won the league cup with us why do they try and pretend to know stuff why not just keep it simple ?

We drew with Rushden 1-1 in the 1st leg of the play-offs in 2010, then won the home leg 2-0.

Whereas we beat Exeter 1-0 away in the playoffs, then for some reason the second leg was never played? I have no recollection of it anyway... What was that flash of a vision, a 1 on 1 missed? Erm, no, game never happened...

possibly to keep PL clubs in the £ they expect ?

 

[mariokempes]

as far back as I can remember Pompey have always been niggling, whinging cheating wankers, to a man ... nowt changed either , squealing like stuck pigs when they were as much as looked at and 'winning' iffy decisions

Come on Sarge you've broken the 1st rule of the forum No sitting on the fence allowed

 

[Bath Yellow]

As in the league game there, Browne was getting kicked all over the park right from the kickoff. Looks like we badly need a right back, Long did his best, Curtis was to good for him, also dont think Eastwood has had all that good a season by his standards, should have kept the lad we had on loan when he was out injured

 

[sonofivan]

Classy

 

[Mad Dog]

Two clearly capable sides, both clearly rusty!
We could easily have lost that tonight, but defended well at times, I'll take a draw.

Woodburn was way off the standard required, and has missed far too much of the season to even be considered ahead of Sykes, who did more within the first couple of minutes after coming on than Woodburn did for the entire previous 53mins, so has to start on Monday.

Although not great tonight, Brannagan had some very useful moments, and showed how vital he is to our midfield, so hope to god he's ok for Monday, as he was noticeably absent when he went off, and we'll really struggle on Monday without his influence.

Dickie had a good game, and showed some real class and composure, he's got premiership written all over him.

Moore was ok, did nothing wrong, and I think he's improved a lot throughout the season, but on Monday, I'd like to see Mous come back into the side alongside Dickie, he's performed so well all season, he deserves the chance to play a big part in the playoffs, and his leadership skills could be crucial on Monday.

That said, it was great to see the lads in action again after so long, and it's still all to play for, it's now in our hands to go and do a job on Monday.

COYY

 

[Pompeyyellows]

Poor game but I think it was never going to be a classic. Fair result in the end. I don’t think they can play any other way but we can. Roll on Monday. Now hopefully the carp are biting. COYY

Pedancy of the highest order.

It’s PEDANTRY. (Sigh)
