Good to see the Puncheon song getting a run out

So, is that another meltdown averted for the season then...?

Hesketh!!! MotM

Looking at the replays, I can see why Long scuffed the sitter just before half time. As he goes around the keeper the ball slows up and by the time he shoots the ball is slightly under his feet rather than in front of him, so he's unable to get any power behind it. If he'd pushed the ball around the keeper slightly harder, or wasn't running quite so fast, the timing would have been more perfect for the shot. Fine margins.

Another great ball from Hesketh to Long there

Hesketh having a great game

Me? Sarcastic? Nah, can't see that ever happening...

I logged in at the same time and had no problem buying at 9:00 via the same session. Technology as inconsistent as ever!

So, c.600 sold in the first hour by the looks of it

That just worked for me (as opposed to just refreshing an existing browser session) Just checked purchase history and my 'ticket number' is 4502 (purchase time 9am)

As I understand it, if you've got non-member "purchase history" that will automatically be linked to your membership if you buy it retrospectively now.

No, online only. I just refreshed my browser and its gone from 1.5 hours wait time to 1 minute... Edit: ah, has now jumped back up to 1.5 hours. All a bit hit and miss.

I logged in 15 minutes before 9:00 and got allocated 30 mins of connection time. 2 tickets duly purchased at 9am. Yay. edit: I then clicked on 'purchase history' to check what ticket numbers I got allocated, and am now in a "1hr 30min" queue to access my account!

Slightly surprising that Isgrove got a call up to the first team bench yesterday but playing tonight seemingly rules him out for an appearance on Wednesday. Unless he's perhaps only going to play 1st half tonight in order to give him some match time ahead of Wednesday (I don't think he's featured as much this season as the other u23s being 'rested' for Wednesday's game?)

"They aren't a top-six club. Not yet. But neither are they a bubble waiting to pop." Eh? I thought we were on the cusp of yet another meltdown a week or so ago?

By reading back through the thread and spotting the 28 times that it's been explained...

I'd like to see Calum Slattery thrown into the mix as a bit of a wild card.

FFS Pompey. I'm counting on you getting promotion this season
