    I like confidence, all he has to do now is back it up. I am looking at 6 points from the next two games. We have to take 2 games at a time. The next two games I expect 4. Then I will see where we are:)

    Bloody Hell SB are you going via Cardiff and Glasgow ?

    I'm going, Leeds to Kings Cross then Waterloo to Fratton.

    4 tickets.

    I've a sneaky feeling that we'll come away with a point.

    Yes; now's the time for all of us, players and supporters, to take it one match at a time, to pull together and work as a team, and give 110% (at least)!

    For myself, I'll continue hoping for a surprise away win -- after all, that's what we do -- but fearing a thumping -- because after all, that's also what we do.

    I'm happy with Caddis getting the Captain's armband, and despite my lack of enthusiasm for some of the frozen-out players, I think it is best to bring them back into the mainstream and see if they can make something of themselves -- not, mind you, to put them right into the starting line-up, but into the squad and subs bench at least.

    I appreciate what you mean, but it's not the right thing for a caretaker manager to say based upon the dross we've served up all season.

    All sorted into order and ready for Saturday; not a good idea to lose any though.

    It can be done with an app, although it could get a bit messy trying to show them all for inspection.

    Oh, and some machines do issue combined travel and seat tickets, but not the ones at my local station.

    No, I'm just going via Southampton :p; three trains going, two coming back. It just saves money by splitting the tickets at intermediate stations.

    It would be meltdown of nuclear proportions.I'd like to see it, but less than NOT losing 3 on the bounce and NOT having Evans anywhere near our club!

    Relax, it's just a positive spin on things. You could say that it's showing a bit of fight or resolve. No need to hang the guy for having a positive attitude.

    I am relaxed. It's not a positive attitude though is it? It's setting yourself up for failure. He could of said we aren't relegated yet and there's points to be played for, come the end of the season and we get relegated it looks completely stupid.

    It's not as if it takes a degree in PR to figure out it's not the best thing to say.

    Looking forward to the weekend, the 90 minutes of football not so...

    A score draw would be great, a win would be superb but sadly it'll be a comfortable home win.

    How many will go down you reckon? Going to grounds like Fratton Park may not happen for a long time after this season so hopefully a few make a weekend of it and we take 500+.

    Managerial vacancy, that can only mean one thing at Fratton.
    Cast your beady eyes into the main stand and low and behold you might catch a glimpse of our perspective eleven game Messiah.

    Do you think they'll agree to a draw before hand and a firm handshake over the centre circle to cement the agreement?

    No....... Oh well, we'll get hammered then....

    3 wins a draw and only one defeat from our last five visits to Fratton Park....I think they might just surprise us, but I'll be surprised if they do! :D

    Portsmouth without a win in the league since New Year's Day and clean sheet since early December.

    Surely not.

    I am going to leave the media boys in attendance from BBC Radio Leeds,Pulse Two Sport and our very own local newspaper journalist to reveal who's sat in the stand.
    Wouldn't want to steal their thunder after all they get paid to speculate and perhaps reveal our man.
    Although that scenario is unlikely tomorrow.
    One photo will suffice to start a media frenzy that's all it will take.
    The rest is what you and others make of proceedings and post on social media.
