Raising a glass to my cousin Paul today decent local league footballer & well known in the Pompey darts world. We also went to many Pompey games together. He passed away earlier this week after fighting cancer. He will be missed

Ben Close a game changer again. Should thrive under the Cowleys. The only player in our squad who has the ability to consistently play simple, short passes under pressure. Superb

Merse, Sherwood and Bog Seat on Soccer Saturday summing up #Pompey brilliantly: “They don’t expect too much, none of that possession stuff, but they need to see a lot of blood, a bit of sweat and a few tears. Leave everything on the pitch and they’ll back you to the hills”.

Ben Close' introduction for me yet again, changed the game. Simply has to start the next game and beyond for me. #pompey

Cowley’s first game in charge and what a difference in two days.

#Pompey pressing Ipswich as a team, not hoofing possession away and attacking in numbers.

Marcus Harness winner firing some confidence back into the blues play-off push @PompeyNewsNow

@puckdropuk

Cowley now has the best win % as a #Pompey manager.
