The Roots Hall pitch is ready for action at 19.45pm Tuesday 8th January 2019, looks like we are going to have light cloud cover for tonight’s game, but it will be near freezing so wrap up warm, those hard wooden seats in the East Stand will be like sitting on an iceberg.

Someone has just put his last pound in the meter and the floodlights are on.

Pompey make 10 changes for tonight's game, so they are taking this very seriously.
 
I thought Theo was too, maybe the ban cannot be used for this game but he misses the Plymouth game.

Portsmouth make 10 changes, do they not get fined for that?

Correct me if I am wrong but didn't Oxley missed cup games ? Or does it's make a difference for straight reds opposed to 2 yellows ?
 
Right, despite saying I wouldn't go if there were no youngsters and that the club won't let you park in the main car park, even when it's half empty. I've decided to make the effort.

I'll report back.

I don’t know, they seem to make up the rules as they go along.

Why they don’t make 200 spaces available on first come basis for a £5er a place I don’t know!!

there was something about Theo's availability on here earlier. I think it was to do with the Checkatrade comp or the fact he got his red for two yellows. Reading that back to myself it sounds a bit flaky so I will leave it to someone else more knowledgeable.

Me neither. I had a run in with them at the Southampton U21 game.

The car park was deserted, but they insisted on making me turn around and park in the street!

This will be the first home match I have missed this season. Mainly because I am up at 4.30am tomorrow and the fact I am shattered as it is.
 
Bit of kick in the teeth for White and Cox who have far more experience and should probably lead the team out... I know Dru is CP's favourite and he's being groomed for a life above and beyond Southend this borders laughable to me.

No Wabo. Disappointed.
