The Blues director sent a sincere message to fans on Twitter across the Atlantic as both the UK and America remain in lockdown.

Pompey haven't had a fixture for almost six weeks due to the Covid-19 outbreak, while their League One promotion push is set to be completed behind closed doors once it's safe for the season to recommence.

The UK has been in lockdown since March 23 and it will last until May 7, with the death toll in hospitals surpassing 15,000 on Saturday.

Nevertheless, Eisner has called for solidarity during the testing period.

He wrote on Twitter: Thinking of everyone in Portsmouth right now. From one coast to another, in this together... #pup.’
