The Blues’ number two goalkeeper’s short-team deal had expired at the weekend.

But boss Paul Cook has moved swiftly to retain the 25-year-old, who has made three appearances so far this season – all in the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy.

David Forde remains Pompey’s undisputed No1, but O’Brien kept goal earlier today as the Blues’ reserves won 6-2 at Exeter in the Central League Cup.
