Wigan v Pompey: It's your shout

Pompey travel to Wigan's JJB Stadium on Sunday as they bring the curtain down on another memorable Premier League season.
With their top-flight safety now secure following last weekend's results, the Blues go into the game knowing that the pressure's finally off them.

But will that make a difference to Paul Hart's tactics for the trip to the north west?

Will he go with the more attacking formation that served him so well in the second half against Sunderland on Monday?

Or will he revert back to the 4-5-1 formation that has served him so well away from home since taking over from Tony Adams in February?

Alternatively, with Pompey's Premier League status finally safe, should Hart freshen things up and give some of the fringe players a chance to prove their worth?

Whatever your views on the big match, leave a comment at the bottom of this page.

I witnessed two very different halves of football on Monday night - and I know which one we'd all prefer again. Please go for the attacking formation, as we're home and dry. Anyway, the Hughes/Davis/Mullins midfield partnership is simply depressing and would struggle to open up even a League 2 outfit

Would like to see some younger players given a chance as there isn't a great deal to play for.

Not sure if they're injured or not but would be nice to see Crainie and Wilson feature at some point (and Begovic, who is pretty much guaranteed a start).

Most importantly though, It would be good to see some 4-4-2 please, Mr Hart!

It's also worth noting that a win would probably move us up two places - above Wigan and Bolton (unlikely to get anything away to Man City)

With finances tight, and prize money for the 08/09 season worth an extra £761,000 per place, it would be nice to move up to 12th and gain an extra £1.5m

I have great memories of the JJB having been present when Pompey retained their Prem status with a win there a couple of sesons ago. Although it was not like the cup final, the nervous tension before , during and afterwards (whilst waiting for other results to come through) was an amazing experience and the outpouring of relief and joy from the Pompey fans at the final whistle was unbelievable. . I can still see the Wigan fans staring at us in admiration. I fancy a 4-4-2 formation on Sunday with Utaka alongside Crouch and an attacking display with Traore back in the side. PUP

Dear oh dear. What happened to the idea of a reporter going out and finding the answer to questions? The News clearly haven't a clue. Yes, they are officially banned from Fratton Park but there are ways and means...
Very poor stuff.
