Pompey fans react to Hull City defeat
@mcooperargus: 21 shots and their keeper made one save.
@byPidge: All too predictable and boring. Can’t expect anything more though playing yet another game without a striker on the pitch. So much to love about this Pompey team but at the same so so much to hate. The type of game that makes you fall out of love with the sport.
@AlexNewel1: We've lost our fair share of nailed on nil nils this season, which keeps us flirting with the trap door. We're the gift that keeps on giving #Pompey.
@Samalaaarr: The absolute experts in finding ways to lose.
@adamb_pfc: Don’t think I’ve ever seen team as bad at set pieces than us. could be on 48 points now if we knew how to take set pieces (vs Preston, Sheffield utd and today).
@CamGpfc: 21 shots to their 2, 11 corners to their 2, and 67% possession, and not ONE bit of danger of scoring a goal, carbon copy every week. We are toothless. Its laughable how bad Bishop is now. So many games this season we could play 10x over and still not score.
@_JLWilson: Another sucker punch at home. Pompey should not be losing games like that. Fine margins in this league and that’s an extraordinary mistake from Segecic. Output in the attacking third way off it. Big one next week now.
@DanielE64141682: I find it incredible how Pompey can find more and more ridiculous ways to lose a football match.
@procus_1: Don’t know if it’s sunk in yet - but we didn’t make signing a CF in the Jan window a priority, goals win games surprisingly, Bishop is poor at this level, his last shot was a penalty & before that Nov - same old story.
@JoePaice92: Also if we’re not careful we’re be back into the relegation zone quickly if we keep doing that. We can’t rely on other teams to help us out. We’ve got to change something up top it’s not working.
@PORTSMOUTHFCLEE: I’m honestly relaxed about us, playing well in most games! Points will come!
