Argyle v Pompey match thread ...

Yep the old second half collapse again. This 'team' is shit.

Bollocks!!

Ffs

FFS!

Atrocious defending. Totally different to the first half

2 - 2 Opoku!

What the hell does Lowe say at half time?

Not impressed by Camaras contribution(or lack of) at all, but tbh we don't tackle as a team, get in 2-2

Flapping keeper get in

Talking bollox Freathers.

Draw 2 - 2

Nouble and Hardie missed chances done for us but a fair result for 2 good teams, and whatever so called Argyle supporter calls this a shit team needs to take a good look at herself.

Fair result.

Feel they were there for the taking tonight but a point is a point. Hardy lightweight for me, Jephers missed foreshore.

We should have wrapped it up first half, Nouble really good but ran out of steam, thought Watts was great first half, agree about Camara Mis, Cooper some really good footwork, beat the player then put in a poor cross, this isn't a shit team and you just feel that given a little bit of luck we could easily stuff a team like Pompey.

We got away with that big time.

Should have buried them first half but not ruthless enough-easy to say but if Jephcott had been there then maybe a different story but then again Nouble was a handful throughout.Defenders need to keep their hands down these days,just asking for trouble no matter how harsh it may seem.Still unbeaten at home,need to get a couple of away wins now to keep improving the league position.

Fair result but away form is key to doing anything this season. No wins away yet need to find a way to get 3 points now and again, or its mid table mediocrity

well i managed to get halfway through the 2nd half till it was spoilt for me :O

did well first half crazy 5 minutes with the pompey goals pompey errors gifted us out goals id say a draw is probably a fair result. Still not sold on nouble as he has no end product to his running around same for hardie at the moment.

on to the next game

Well this “shit” team has only lost 2 in the league so far, along with Charlton and Sunderland, if we can turn the draws into wins who knows where that could take us

Good game tonight. Argyle 1st half. Pompy 2nd half. As for an Argyle collapse, their first was an unlucky handball for the penalty, their 2nd we had no chance. If you think that's a collapse then so be it, knock one out Freathy.

Fair result and decent advert for League 1 football
I actually thought Camara played well and mentioned it to Bellend but couple others didnt agree.

Thought Cooper was poor again overall. Too many balls wayward

It’s funny how people see things different. I thought cooper had a good game running at their defence but as you say a few of his crosses were poor.

I'd agree about Cooper although their second goal came from a slip from I think Mayor who had the ball on the right hand wing then slipped as he was about to motor up the pitch and launch another attack, Pompey player ran with the ball and ten seconds later it's in the back of our net. Without the slip would have been a different game. Fine margins. It looks like our MO is to go all out first half to get ahead which is great if you go two or three ahead but we looked tired past the hour mark.

One of those games where you're happy with a point but at the same time disappointed we didn't get all 3. Portsmouth were decent, but we outplayed them for most of the game, probably 10 - 15 minute spell in the second half when they were on top. We showed great character after going behind to come back and equalise, having said that we could have been 3 up before that.

Good game overall, and with Portsmouth being one of the fancied teams this year, we can take a lot out of the performance and the standard of football we played.

Sky gave Mayor man of the match, he did have a good game, but for me Opoku was the star, he didn't give the league's in form leading scorer Marquis a kick, and also popped up to score the equaliser.

Camara wasn't at his best last night, Cooper has got loads of ability, but the final ball isn't there at the moment, Hardie gets into some great positions but again no end product.

Defensively good last night, probably was a penalty but I still don't understand how you're supposed to jump without raising your hands.

Two difficult looking away games coming up now.
