Pompey 2-3 Liverpool

I write this almost a week after the game so much on you know! As I woke in the morning I had that feeling that you get when you know your team are going to win. But it was not to be we were beaten at the end again, we just can not hold on, we had been in front twice, but I will have to say we played better than we have for a long time, but looking back now I just get the feeling that some of the player did not want to play for Tony. That is a shame as to me that means they are not playing for me or the rest of the fans, but Tony will have to take his blame for the defeat as well , his tactics were naive and to go 2-1 up and lose 3-2 is not good enough. I know it was Liverpool but we have beaten them before. As it would have it Adams was sacked on Sunday night, I had hoped that Adams would get much more time. but as we must survive he had to go.

It has to be said that the strangest thing to happened on the way to the ground after the pub was this weird couple that came up to Mum and me and said " I hope Pompey do it tonight! I said "I hope so to" as I looked at him he was wearing a Pompey hat and a Southampton away shirt strange but there you go.

The pub in Guild Hall Walk was shut or closed down I think, so we ended up at a student bar and watched some Rugby on the box with some cheap beer lovely.

So with the match against Manchester City at home coming up with Paul Hart in temp charge with Brian Kidd we I hope we will get something from this game, we need it.
