Think there will be a bit of a frosty atmosphere here. Last game at the toughsheet was odd and Richie Wellens saying "I would win the league with this squad".
Saw Wellens on Class of 92, when he got the job he said he would win them the league without spending a penny. Two weeks later he's moaning about the dross he has to work with, he was reminded of what he said in the interview and weeks later Neville and Co had got rid. But no doubt Ian Evatt will not be happy with the implication that he's falling short or underperforming with the squad he has.
Sure Ian would love bragging rights tonight. Getting the game on would be a positive. Sorry I'll stick a pound in the "I'll take a draw" jar. I know others are catching but draw aways and home wins will see us top when we're all caught up.

A difficult match today but one we can win.
Very glad to hear that the game is on as we don’t want to drop behind any more.
With Forrester injured, the defence picks itself – Toal, Santos and Iredale. I hope we have no more injuries, or god forbid any sending offs, as we are tight there now.
I’m assuming that Williams will be back as wing back along with Dacres-Cogley.
Midfield we always have a choice. Thomason and Sheehan seem guaranteed starters at the moment and then a choice between Morley, Dempsey and Maghoma. I expect Dempsey to start today.
After Tuesday’s showing, Adeboyejo and Charles will be upfront.
That’s a strong looking side and despite Leyton Orient’s recent run of good form, it should be good enough to win.
We have a bad memory from our last visit – a 4-0 drubbing in league 2 so we need to exorcise that dreadful performance.
As long as we are strong defensively, we have goals in the team and I will go for a 2-1 win.

Good afternoon everyone am I missing something as we have yet another injury and still no signings I really hope that Ian doesn't think we can manage on what we have or is it the board saying we have no money ? Yes we are selling out every away game and almost getting 20K at home we are clearing the debt even if we stay in this league ? God forbid Dion stops scoring or gets injured or Santos gets sent off or another injury to the defence we are very thin on the ground with bodies but is this our lot then ? Onto today we should win on paper but Bolton don't like to make things easy for us and we are not playing on paper. 3-1 win COYWM

We have JDC Toal Santos Iredale and Williams.
But Williams has been a bit in and out with fitness, and form. If we get any suspensions or injuries we are really exposed with only Ashworth and Mattheson potentially being able to cover.
It's radical but if that was to happen surely a 442/451/433 would need to be considered. But with Ian he'd probably rather play Maghoma or GT at left wing back

16 mins in and what a very ugly scrap
Football quality is non existent
Why do we not dominate in the first half hour??
Blackoool are 2 up on 19 and away at BRovers

Shocking miss by Charles ... we will lose this, no composure. Very similar to the Cheltenham game.

Odd touches from Thomason Sheehan but Dempsey is invisible and the lack of midfield support for the front men is awful Adeboyejo is awful but slightly better than Charles and that MISS could be a Pompey moment
Awful first half… awful LO bossed that game and their forward movement is a hell of a lot better than ours
Come on BOLTON sort this out

Not very good at all – 2nd best in this game.
Apart from Charles hitting the post from an open goal, we haven’t had an attack on goal.
Defence OK.
Midfield not passing at all well – just no crisp passing.
Front two cannot trap a ball so it is all scrambles. Need to improve.

Bloody hell, are we having this or what?? That’s 2 Orient efforts in 2 minutes
This is the thing with Evatt, everyone can see the issues and yet he makes no half time changes
Only one way this is going if we dont up our game

Completely piss poor
Pompey is 1-0 Posh 1-1
And we think we are good enough to get up??? Think again
Who could argue against those substitutions Charles is poor yet again
Now tell me we don’t need a GOAL SCORER
