MATCH THREAD: " PORTSMOUTH v CARDIFF CITY " MATCH THREAD

At what time is robinson hooked....utterly ineffective

I'm pretty sure the commentators on citytv are watching a different game to me, they were just praising Robinson.

In fairness I think they said its not been his night so far.I suppose they can’t say “hes been utter sh@te”

Get Salech on please!

Alves for o'dowda

At worse case a point here is important

Robinson has a goal disallowed after a poor ball out from the Pompey keeper is intercepted and passed back to Robinson, who slots the ball into the Pompey net only to be adjudged offside (the previous ball having been played by a Bluebird)

Will Alves on as a substitute (for Joel Bagan) and that has to be a good decision, as his pace will stretch a now tiring Portsmouth defence

Rubin Colwill also on (for Joe Ralls)

LATEST SCORE: PORTSMOUTH 2 - 1 CARDIFF CITY (60 mins)
Bluebird scorer: Callum O’Dowda, 22 mins)

Why are being so defensive again this half - the ball is going backwards all the time, putting us under constant pressure. We are now making two positive changes, but not bringing on probably our best striker Salech - what is he doing?

I'm hoping this Leicester lad can turn these inside out now

Robinson offside, yet again. Switch on ffs

Stop playing back to the keeper f.ck sake

Robinson should be doing what Murphy been doing, making runs so we can thread balls through. Seen non of that

Frustrating

For me you can play Colwill or Robinson NOT both. He has brought on Alves so we need Salech in the cente. Common sense????

Robinson is just getting in the way & causing us more problems than them.

This is winnable if we switch on

Pack might be a little gift for us here as he's slow on the ball and makes mistakes, hopefully he don't turn into prime Zidane now

Riza is now destroying this by leaving Robbo on.

We've been second to everything this half, not even looked like scoring.

We are not in this half.

Alves on 10 mins not touched ball as he? Should be main man for attacking.. Pompey only likely scorer

Strange decision, could upset the balance of the side.

How is a shoulder barge a foul ? Ffs games soft

Subs have not made blind bit difference tactics same with same results.. play until Saturday and won't score2nd to every ball

A lucky escape, as a good free-kick is whipped over the top of the Pompey net from the edge of the box

Maybe a few-kick but never a yellow card and thankfully the game moves on

It’s starting to get a bit scrappy now and we need to take control again

LATEST SCORE: PORTSMOUTH 2 - 1 CARDIFF CITY (79 mins)

The Bkuebirds are unlucky not to get a handball penalty (he flicked it away after it rolled down his arm) and eventually gain a corner; but it comes to nothing

Anwar El Ghazi and Perry Ng on as a substitutes

I thought it was very fair challenge. Nothing wrong with it.
Wasn’t through the back, ball was there to be won too.

Shocking!

5 cardiff substitutes and Robinson is still on

We just dont have an answer to this. Portsmouth winning most of the 2nd ball.

It's been all one way this half, it's like they have 2 more player than us. They've been first, second & third to every ball.

This team can go down without a fight. That's what I dislike the most about them!! Pompey are running harder, tackling with more intent! Pisses me off and very worrying in a relegation battle!!
