It’s a risk but this is the best chance to (a) give Larin a rest and (b) provide a good opportunity to Mabuma and Dobbin to put in a successful performance. Larin and Azaz can be utilised from the bench if we need to go large from 50-60 minutes onwards. Would also start Downes alongside JWP to run midfield. Also consider giving our new lad CB a start alongside Keven, but this is perhaps too risky and consistency at CB pairing is important. I’m thinking a tough 1-2.

We’re scrapping around in the transfer bargain bin and getting knocked back by Nathan fucking Jones FFS! Stewart should have been properly replaced four weeks ago.

A fair result but we’re lacking in quality up top - Larin looked tired today and Mubama is not good enough to press him for a starting slot. Think this is going to undo us until the January window possibly..

Schlotts looking a bit tired.

FFS Manning

If they go ahead from attacking Manning I’m going to kick the TV

Unlucky James - on target

Please don’t leave it for Manning!

FK in JWP territory. Come on my Lord.

Get Manning off FFS!

Dobbin on for Scoenza - will he won’t he?

We’re starting to get a bit more of a grip.

Now the time to get Manning off for Welington

And Larin off for Mubama

Larin fucks up an easy shot again.

Scienza having a tough game against a very good RB.

Bragg off…JWP on.

Shit defending on the…yep LB position. Manning caught in no man’s land once again. Fucking useless.

Mmm starting to get sloppy in midfield again.

Pompey 1-0 down. Could be a great night.

Need to come out with a high press and firing to get another. Sit back and we’ll concede.

Gotta laugh. Brum commentator saying Brum dominating when the stats show Saints were actually better in many areas. Idiot.

Brum supporters booing their team at half-time! Twats!

Schlotter slots home a brilliant header!

And another stunning FK fuck up
