'I’m glad it’s over... The real work starts now... Big summer ahead' - Portsmouth fans react to disappointing 4-1 defeat to Sheffield Wednesday
and on Freeview 262 or Freely 565
The loss marked the end of a challenging campaign for Danny Cowley’s men, who missed out on play-off football for the second successive season.
Despite an early George Hirst opener, the Blues conceded three sloppy goals ahead of the interval before George Byers headed home the fourth against his former employers.

We’ve picked out some of the best reactions from Twitter.
@pfcmccloud: Up the Blues, going up next season.
@HazzaTWood96: A 4-1 away defeat to Sheffield Wednesday, disappointing way to bow out this season, though we had nothing to play for.
Hirst's opener was good but we just couldn't build on that great start. We go again next season and I hope it will be better with a big summer ahead for all at Pompey.
Very Disappointing.
