    That was the most enjoyable game of the season for me personally last night. Tremendous spirit from every player, epitomised by the excellent Callum Guy. McMahon played a blinder for the 3rd goal, messing about, taking his time, winding Pompey up, and then catching their keeper unaware with his shot.
    Pompey looked decent on the ball, but we defended as well as we have for a long time, especially NKP and the excellent Warnock
    Masterstroke by Grayson bringing on Lund for Bruenker, Lund linking up midfield and Wyke very well I thought, and he took his goal very well.
    Playoffs still look beyond us, but a good finish to the season and get Grayson to commit, and we can still go into the summer with a bit of optimism perhaps for another go next season

    OKAY GUYS, THIS IS IT!!

    ALL OR NOTHING!!!

    WE MUST WIN THIS GAME TONIGHT!! Only way I can see us still making the playoffs, I know I sound crazy, but I won't give up until it's too late. :D :D :D :D :D :D

    We are going to go out there tonight and smash Portsmouth HARD!! They'll regret playing us tonight and we'll get the valuable 3 points that we are looking for. :D :D

    My predictions:
    HT: City 1 - 1 Portsmouth
    FT: City 3 - 1 Portsmouth


    COME ON CITY!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

    Bloody hell every time we play a team they are poor or average their recent record suggests otherwise it was us that were good tonight we didn’t let them play

    Callum Guy put in another impressive shift last night.
    Not sure if his contract runs out at Derby this summer but we could sign a lot worse.
    Callums enthusiasm and attitude is spot on.

    Playing players in positions they are best accustomed to is a start, none of this Chicksen on the left side of midfield or McMahon in the centre of midfield. Back to basics with a 4-4-2, although not pretty at times, gives balance to the side and players seem to know their roles.

    Why would you say Shrewsbury were poor opposition. They have been brilliant all season. It seems in some of our fans eyes when teams arrive at VP they all turn useless. They wasn't we played well on the night

    I believe on the whole City fans are very fair, I posted before the Shrewsbury game if the team showed they were up to the challenge the fans would back them from the off, and they were very well vocally supported through out the game, even with a far smaller attendance than normal.

    Was lovely to get a win, and was lovely to hear noise at both ends of the ground.

    I’ve been accused of being negative, I’m not, I’m just feeling a bit frustrated that this is pretty much a meaningless victory after such a promising season has withered away. Yes, it’s great for us to finally have a win, and for morale in the dressing room.

    But it pisses me off that this group of players have started to put a shift in, after the manager publicly called them an embarrassment on the radio. It pisses me off that these players are putting a shift in, after the manager said they are playing for their futures at not just Bradford, but future clubs.

    Why did they need this wake up call? Were they feeling so comfortable in the top five that they basically thought they were going to walk the league?

    Certainly confusing. Grayson has put a rocket up them for sure, something we know Stuart struggled to do. I just wished he’d cancelled their Xmas dinners and outed them in public a bit sooner.
