FA Cup Winners 2008 v Northern Premier League Challenge Cup Winners 2007

Last time we played Pompey was after Jamie Vardy got us promoted to league 2 and if I remember correctly we came away with a 1-0 win or maybe 2-1
For a number of Fleetwood lads this will be the biggest crowd they have ever faced so a good test for the youngest team in league 1. Still finding our feet and while we are ok going forward bit dodgy at the back. Certainly settle for a draw here 1-1

To be fair we have an extremely young side aswell. We're still finding our feet in the division. We need to pick up a few more wins at home. Played very well against Northampton away 21 shots to 4 and ended up losing 3-1 to 3 shots on target. Goalie is 22, centre backs 20 and 26 so a young defensive core which will make mistakes. Unfortunatley alot of the Pompey fans have just grown inpatient with the 4 years in league 2 and if you can force us back towards our own goal the fans will get on the players backs. This is having a huge negative affect, especially on young players like Adam May (19) in the midfield and Lowe (22- first full pro season) If we can get a goal up then I can't see us not winning. Thats the way it is at the moment for some reason

Can't argue with this result, sounds like a cracking win by Pompey with some terrific goals thrown in. We are having real problems at the back leaking goals, 8 in the last 3 games, still on the bright side it's entertaining stuff. Time to get back to last season where our defending was excellent - let's see what the next game brings. Eh !

we were very clinical today. Cargill was shocking when he came on. Coles goal was clapped by the pompey fans which shows how good it was. We finally looking like a team rather than individuals
