Please @Pompey enough is enough now #pompey

Wycombe’s promotion last season is an example of what can be achieved when a team believes in their manager and their team mates. Pompey’s current position shows what is achieved with no guidance from manager & above or team spirit. @ExpressFM #pompey

Are Pompey a good team just not firing? No, problems run deeper. Too few players making any kind of impact. Hard team to love and a disconnect between fans and manager. Players are trying but there’s no spark.

We won the corners again so it’s a positive result for Jackett! People are too obsessed with this scoring more than the other team and picking up wins and points, that’s so 2016-17 #pompey

We definitely have the players, just haven't got the gaffer anymore, creative players in defensive roles, we are just too negative for players to shine, watched Fleetwood against Everton the other night and they looked very decent going forward, we are miles behind some clubs

Woke up this morning not feeling fine, I’ve got Kenny jacket on my mind! He’s got to go! #jacketout #pompey

@SimonDbrooks

Just a prediction but I think Kenny lost the dressing room when he dropped Naylor for Morris in the play offs. This season needs saving. The team and most fans want/need the change.

It is 586 days since I first tweeted Kenny Jackett out. Unbelievable he is still here. #Pompey

@deanmaskell

Emptied of all emotion for it ... unless I’ve had a couple of Shants. It would be so toxic if we were inside FP. Change is needed.

@theandydurrant

Has he gone yet? @Michael_Eisner @eric_eisner this is beyond a joke. His overstayed his welcome by about 18 months. Clough or cook please! #pompey
