Todays team :
Pompey:
Bass, Swanson, Mnoga, Robertson, Ogilvie, Tunnicliffe, Harness, Curtis, Pack, Thompson, Jacobs.
Subs: Steward, Rafferty, Reid, Vincent, Mingi, Jewitt-White, Bridgman, Gifford, triallist.( not Afolabi).
Hume and Recco still coming back from injury, Raggett and Morrell absent?
Freeman left behind.
Tks. Harness starting, no sign of the move to Swansea as some have predicted
Harness withdrawn before start. Reid started.
0-0 halftime Pack, Thompson and Swanson playing well. Curtis had a great chance to score , however !!!!!
Can't blame Curtis, he's not a striker. He may enjoy playing there but it doesn't do him any favours.
The news were raving about Pack last week, excited to see him play soon!
Bridgeman on for Reid at halftime .
8 subs after about 65 mins.
Steward, Rafferty, Vincent, Gifford, Jewitt-White, Mingi and two triallists.
Only Mnonga, Tunnicliffe and Bridgeman stay on.
One triallist is a centre half the other a left winger
0-0 at the end of the 2nd 45 mins, I believe they’re going to play for a further 30 mins.
2 BC players have come on for us to replace Mnonga and Tunnicliffe and the left winger ( so called triallist) is also a BC player…..wtf.

Let’s hope some strikers are on the way then
After 120 (45+45+30) mins it ends 0-0 , with 4 or 5 BC players playing for us.
I bet BC couldn't believe their luck, Pompey willing to get half another team match fit for them
We can't score even with help from the opposing team. Says it all really.
Neither did Bristol City .
Looks like Harness was withdrawn at the last minute as he maybe off to Swansea in the next day or so ( according to Twitter) - hopefully for cash plus Kyle Joseph.
perhaps we were looking at one or two of the four?
We can't be upset we didn't score, we don't have any strikers. It's like riding a bicycle and then getting pissed of you didn't win the grand prix.
We know exactly where we are.

The centre half is Terrell Thomas, freed by Reading earlier in the summer. Raggs has a back injury
