Boring middle-aged man. Now balding, and with increasingly poor eyesight.

I wonder if Pompey's home team could spend a bit of time with the away team to see if something might rub off??

@Breck_Eisner The young lad in this photo, my son, has just started watching The Expanse and was flabbergasted when I showed him this and told him who took it :D one of my favourite pictures of him

@PompeyPedro Consider yourself lucky - I had to move to Derby in February and have been going there for matches ever since.

0-4 and the most fun I've had at Pride Park in 10 empty months.

@DerbyshireCCC Big bright yellow thing in the sky in Heanor, fingers crossed...

What a night for Ollie Watkins, his biggest career highlight since facing @Burgey44 at Fratton Park in January 2017 #Pompey

@Sadler004 Congratulations Jay, been a long long climb to this particular peak, you must be so elated!

[Antony Irvine @AntonyIrv]

Update from your Norvern Midlands correspondent ; Orient defending from a deep Stansted Airport line, conceed 3 against Derby with no reply.

Much improved from Wednesday night, and with a clear run-in, the Rams must be faves for 2nd place now

@pompeychiv Honestly, it was like North End library. Was in the wrong end tbf, (bolton confined to one corner next to the hard core), but the Ref could clearly hear me, which tells a story.

Nicely engineered ground in the middle of an industrial estate, remind you of anyone?

[Antony Irvine @AntonyIrv]

Well, I was visiting my mum and dad, ) rude not to pop in the locals...

Not much between them, Bolton possibly should have led at the break, but Derby deserved the points at the end (despite their massive inferiority complex, not hard to see why they struggle at home) #pompey

Interesting to note that, after being relegated in August and then promoted in late September, Pompey have been relegated again today by their own fan base despite still being top of the league with nineteen games left to play.

[Antony Irvine @AntonyIrv]

Congratulations to Pompey, top of the league just a few short weeks after being relegated by sections of their own fan base in August...

[Antony Irvine @AntonyIrv]

@MoneysFCWomen @EllieKirby1 All the best Ellie, hope the break does you the world of good - one of the true 110% characters of the game.

[Antony Irvine @AntonyIrv]

@3LadsInThePub Got to place all this in perspective - lots of new players, only 4 games in. Are the Fratton "faithful" giving up already?

It's hard to take the doom-mongering seriously, especially from a fanbase that once booed their own side for being 1-0 up in a promotion season.

This obviously comes as a massive shock 🙄

Apparently #Pompey will show the World Cup Final on the big screen if the match against Cheltenham isn't finished by then

@PompeyPedro Are you able to wave a flag despite having a visual impairment?

@Since71Blog Enterprising souls in Sydney already printing up knock-off Spain shirts to sell to teeth-grinding Aussies clamouring to block-book tickets in the England end for Sunday...

@Since71Blog The brittle arrogance is always going to be there, but it's no surprise that the sorest winners are now the sorest losers.
