Penalty. AA scores it.

Clearly lacking the out ball that Leo provides, JRob just isn’t the same player. Not really sure who’s on the bench to change things with the injuries we’ve got.

Is there anything you won’t blame him for? That was a terrible defensive header which dropped the ball right in front of the goal. Baz did well to react and put some sort of challenge on Taylor, if he stays on his line it’s a tap in.

I’m quite happy scoring 13 goals in 4 games, if I’m honest.

Derby on fire at the moment. Preston losing already.

Wonder why Archer isn’t on the bench. Shame about Leo but we should still have enough to get a result.

Plenty of other games for Pompey to lose too but that’s secondary to Saints interests anyway. I want us back up into the hunt for second asap.

As dirty as it feels to say, we could do with Pompey winning today. Hull too, from these early kick offs.

Bragg has played about 85 minutes in the Championship in his entire career, Romeu is 34 and hasn't played since making 10 minute sub appearances in Spain last spring and Jander is a completely different type of player. We need Downes. I don't really get the criticism of him TBH. Far too many people moan about how we're always a team of, "noddy son in laws, who are too small and skinny and afraid to get stuck in and they're only here as part of a player trading algorithm and they go to Anfield and they lose 1435-0 and they applaud politely because it's such a priviledge for them to play there and our polite fans cheer and clap them off etc." Then when we actually have a midfielder who puts a few dirty tackles in and gets booked, he gets slated.

Christ, is playing for QPR part of community service in Hammersmith now?

Have to assume it'll be Bragg and JRob coming in, if Leo is indeed out. Can't see Romeu going from not in the squad to starting within four days.

I often do as well. Personally, I reckon it'll be Katie Price. We should wait until they get married, then appoint Dwight Yorke as assistant manager, just for teh lolz.

He’s certainly been playing like a man possessed under TE but let’s not pretend he hadn’t been putting in some ropey performances before that. At Derby in particular he acted like an absolute helmet.

Midweek, live on Sky, long drive, cold weather, Christmas travel and presents to pay for. Hardly surprising really that there were empty seats in both ends.

They’re 9th in the table with a GD of -5, which for reference is worse than Blackburn in 18th. Whilst obviously points dictate the table overall, GD is probably a better measure of how a team is playing. They’ve certainly been on the wrong end of some pretty crap defeats.

TBH I’m supporting Coventry in every game they play. Them thumping everyone they play, except us obviously, is in our best interests. They can run away with the league, I don’t care, but tonight they did us a big favour in keeping second place within reach.

Outstanding player. Runs the show.

Just bad timing really. Everything just seemed to click and fall into place at exactly the moment he got sacked.

West Ham lad misses the trip to The Den.

If I had a quid for every time Fellows made it to the byline tonight, I could buy Agustin Delgado.

Even a bizarre segue into slagging off Martin isn’t going to buy you any sympathy on this one, sorry.

Leicester have taken off the two players who always tear us to shreds. Hopefully they’re just trying to keep it respectable.

Your defence of Still looks sillier by the minute. The fact that the kids team manager is playing Still’s own playbook ten times better than he can isn’t much of an endorsement.
