Replay Blackburn only decision, didn't expect anything else from moment it was abandoned. Struggle to fit it in but has to happen.
If we were in their position we'd be disappointed because they were in a strong position. But football is 90 mins plus additional time. If take out late goals, history of football would be very different. We've scored late goals, they've conceded late goals this season. No other possible outcome. Focus on next game and know we're going back there in the next few months.
Difficult to assess performance in some aspect. Wettest pitch I've ever seen at this time of year before kick-off. Got worse as it went on. First half the ball was moving, footing was difficult but ball was stopping with long passes. At half-time subs said it was unplayable.
Red card was a big moment, if you take out the condition of that, we've had a lot of games when we've been on top and given away a penalty or defensive moments have cost us. Have spoken about it this week, take conditions out of game, and not have defensive moments which can impact direction of game.
45 mins where conditions were just about playable. | | | |

Greaves suspension, it is what it is. Is something there is a rule for. | | | |

Portsmouth start very good up to last week, good performance against Southampton. Last week missed a couple of important players so disappointed to miss that one. Well organised, well coached, expecting a tough game. | | | |

New director of recruitment Mick Court, knew of Mick at Man U but didn't have direct work with him. Mark Ashton knows him better from Watford. Area we need to make progress in. | | | |

Suggestions of giving Blackburn a goal, starting with 10 men, not worth discussing. Conditions were unplayable safely from about half-time onwards. If it ended earlier, few would have had complaints. Appreciate tough for them. | | | |

Priority Saturday but in three games week, have to take fitness, freshness factors etc into account and opposition, who might be more suitable for particular games. Will be a lot of that over the course of the season. Only one or two weeks without games aside from international breaks before beginning of January. | | | |

Want to back up Sheffield United result and turn Portman Road into fortress, but worth remembering we didn't win 5-0 every week in the promotion season. Success is going to come from one battle at a time, one week at a time. Taken one step but only one and this is a new battle. | | | |
