And after making a strong impression with supporters, MacGillivray is aiming to continue that form for the duration of the league campaign.
He said: '˜I said first game of the season that the aim is to get a full season under my belt.
'˜I need to keep myself fit, keep working hard in training and put things into practice which need doing.

'˜I need to enjoy it '“Â and get these 46 games. That's definitely my aim.'
MacGillivray's 13 Pompey appearances this term already outstrip his previous best league return for a club.
The Scottish-born keeper picked up 12 league outings in three years at Walsall and another eight League One games with Shrewsbury last season.

'˜Today will be my 14th appearance which is close to my total last season - including cup games.
