For me this makes me more certain that we have the wrong management team because they clearly can't decide which their best team is. They seem scared to play some players 2 games in a row because games are coming "thick and fast". Basically they overthink everything. We need a motivational, attack minded manager, not this pair of technical halfwits.
At the end of the day, we just don't have a big enough squad to absorb the injuries/tiredness/form so he's resorting to resting players and trying (unsuccessfully) to avoid injuries.
Having said that, you missed a cracking second half. It's been a long time since i've since Pompey respond well to being kicked off the park, which was basically Rotherham's entire game plan. Even Harness made an effort - even if he still can't cross the ball. Cowley and the Eisner's now has a month's head start in preparation for the new season. Let's hope they use the time constructively to build a decent sized football team - rather than one cobbled together the week before season kicks off.
It's also very naughty that Pompey are the only team playing 48 hours after this game at Easter. Even Cowley himself looks tired.
