There’s many wondering whether this could finally be their year as they maintained their unbeaten start to the League One season with a hard-fought 2-1 victory at the Latics.

The win, secured thanks to first-half goals from Regan Poole and Paddy Lane, sees John Mousinho’s side retain their place at the top of the table – a point above Oxford United.

It also means the Blues have stretched their unbeaten run in the league to 21 games, following a strong finish to the previous season.

Off course, there’s plenty of football still to be played between now and May.

But with Pompey navigating their way through a tough-looking September on paper, collecting 13 points from a possible 15, belief is growing amid the fans.

Here’s what been said on x, formerly Twitter, after the final whistle was blown at the DW Stadium.
