What a win that was. Peterborough have plenty of talented players but we really turned the screw second half and that man Yengi again with a great finish. We keep losing players but it doesn't seem to make any difference and Mousinho keeps the points rolling in. Derby beating Bolton helps us...

Rumour has it that we tried for Leonard last summer. We may have another go this summer if we make it to the Championship though it's more likely a more established Championship club will land him.

Big weekend at the top. Good chance for Barnsley to make inroads with the other four at the top playing each other. Despite our excellent away defensive record I see us definitely conceding at Peterborough. Losing Connor Ogilvie has weakened us at the back and Peterborough should find plenty of...

That was a very nervous last 15 minutes against Burton. We should have been out of sight by then but missed so many good chances. Complete bottle job by the ref to not give Burton a clear cut penalty near the end. "Do I upset the 20,000 Pompey fans or less than 100 Burton fans?" Sometimes it...

The potential was definitely there as he won League One young player of the year at Fleetwood. Seems like it was a personality thing with Scott Brown, which allowed us to pick him up for not much. Thanks Mr Brown.

Another big midweek. We're at home to Burton and it's really a must win with the tough fixtures we have coming up. Derby should beat Reading who seem to have dropped off recently. Bolton really need to beat Oxford to get themselves back on course but it won't be easy. Peterborough have got...

I've seen some decent teams this season. Blackpool and Leyton Orient were good at Fratton. I reckon Port Vale were the worst though when we played them at their place. 0.15xg and 0 shots on target. At home! Yikes!

I agree the Jordan Rhodes red looked very harsh. It's one of those moments when nobody in the ground even expects a red until the ref reveals it like a magician pulling a rabbit out of a hat. Blackpool were on top at the time. After that they were well organised defensively and we couldn't...

Cheers. Interesting stuff. For us, I reckon winning 5 out of the remaining 10 games will get us to 91 points which should be enough. 6 wins for 94 to be safe. Second weekend in a row where we have a tougher game on paper than our rivals. Blackpool took us to the cleaners at Fratton back in...

Every club has their share of trolls. I can't recommend the Ignore option enough. You can work out someone's agenda pretty quickly. When you're never going to win the argument rationally just don't engage. It's like playing chess with a pigeon.

Hmmm.... this may be because you're watching Port Vale. Still slagging off the quality of a league that your team is plummeting out of? Weird. We've had plenty of exciting games this season. Previous seasons, maybe not so much. It's football and you take the rough with the smooth, unless you...

One of the clips of the year, and brilliant to see Ronan Curtis come off the bench and do that after the shit year he's had. Hopefully the ball boy he picked up was ok in the ensuing crush!

There's an "ignore" option on here for a reason. Personally I don't engage with the "our club's bigger/better/older than your club" stuff. It's not what I come here for.

I agree totally with codaplenty etc above. I'm really not sure what the Vale fans expected when they came into League One. It's the third tier. Most of the football is going to be pretty workmanlike. Last season was a real freak. Wednesday had retained most of their Championship squad. Ipswich...

Looks like Evans was unlucky at Ipswich. He's had knee problems over the last year and a half culminating in surgery early this season. Signed by Paul Cook but was still a key player under McKenna until injuries. Let go by Ipswich early Feb as they needed to trim the squad down to 25 players...

If you think this league is bad you should see the one below. Doncaster are 20th and still in with a shout for the playoffs. Mansfield top on just 63 points.

The race for the autos really hotting up after yesterday's results. I still reckon 90 points is the target, which is good enough 90% of the time (last season was a bit of a freak). We have a lead but also possibly the toughest run-in. Still need to go to Bolton, Peterborough and Blackpool...

Yes, I thought tactically Jones was spot on yesterday. He limited the effectiveness of Lane and Kamara. Callum Lang also seemed to be surrounded by players on the few occasions he got the ball. A fair result overall, and a good point for us. This clearly is a better version of Charlton than...

I believe we have a Heritage Share, which means fans have a veto on club colours, name and stadium location. So technically the club badge could be changed without approval (and maybe stadium name? - it's not clear to me)

Don't forget, form and league position are meaningless when you play us. I'll take a point.
