    Got to say the City fans that bothered to turn up were a real credit to the club today.

    Got behind the team and despite going a goal down early on were never on the players backs.

    Hope today is a turning point as, for the first time this season, I thought there was some bite and fight in the team.

    I really hope you're right Keefly, the commentary sounded positive .

    Saying that we thought we might be turning a corner after the Sunderland game.

    Didnt hear one Edin out chant which was disappointing , but other than that was a positive crowd

    Nowhere near the 16k plus that was announced though

    The crowd have been good all season, far better than this spineless shower deserve. So far it's not made a difference though, so I'd be surprised if this were a turning point, Sunderland certainly wasn't.

    Atmosphere started off ok but was nowhere near loud but for a few chants here and there. As for Edin chants occiasonally you could here them but again I expected it to be louder than it was that said he wasn't there so maybe when he is he will get the full blast.

    A performance with effort helps. Not many disenting voices today, the fans seemed to appreciate the efforts, there was no barracking at the end, just pockets of clapping. Most knew Rahic wasn’t there so any chanting would have been futile.

    I wasn't there but it's no surprise to read reports of good "effort" & "desire" etc It's just like after the Sunderland game, it just is when you play a "big" team you expect to get beaten by. The next 5 games are crucial and I'd be amazed if we got 3 points out of 15. Down.

    I'd be very surprised if 16k turned up.

    Feck all for them to cheer anyway and the pulse clutching at straws by praising our performance. We're offering nothing.

    It's a sign of how far we have fallen -
    People staying behind to applaud the players for running around.

    They stayed behind to applaud a good performance. We were playing the best team in the league and we played well. Yes the result was the same but we didn’t get what we deserved

    There'll barely be 2 in the crowd next season. People will vote when it's season ticket time.

    Precisely how far we have fallen - that was a 'good performance'. It was bang average and we know it. We created very little.

    I doubt we will get over 10K regardless of what division we are in next season. More like 7-9K

    We actually created the most I have seen this season. More than Pompey did. However guilty of not making the chances count.

    It was a decent effort but there's a distinct air of resignation!
