And giving a team like Blackburn, who let's always remember, were the third most successful away team in the entire championship.
They were away specialists.
And they had their captain back.
who was a very capable player, if extremely annoying, but a very good footballer.
So they had every right to expect that they would get something from us.
And when they scored, there was almost a sense of, well, of course, we're going to beat this lot.
That was why nobody went to celebrate with the goal scorer, did you notice?
But anyway, they scored and our heads dropped a little.
And I believe there was some booing at half-time.
Shame on those so-called supporters.
I'm coming round to thinking that if you don't know how to support Pompey, go and support somebody else.
You're allowed to express concern, but booing the team is borderline sick.
It didn't have the desired effect.
Don't pretend to yourself, don't kid yourself, the boo merchants, that your booing is what turned Pompey round in the second half.
What turned Pompey round is John Massino going to his little office at Fratton Park, and I've been, and it is a tiny office with no windows, to have a few moments by himself to consider what he was going to say to the players.
