Cannot believe the negativity....
We lost to a team fighting for their survival, on a tricky midweek fixture, only a few days after a big big game. They played the game of their lives and it clicked. We were a bit shit, not that bad, def not at our best. Both their goals were bouncing around the box, and a bit of luck finished off the game. It was just one of those nights.
We're still 2 points ahead, better GD and a game in hand
We'll win on Saturday and all the haters will disappear again.... |  | | |  |

We do tend to bounce back after games like this. Hopefully will do so again. |  |

It was the performance against a vastly inferior team. I don't think I can be accused of being a negative poster but that was incredibly frustrating last night. |  |

I haven’t seen much negativity just a heavy dose of reality. The team, as proven yesterday, is not full of scrappers, has no physically when needed and doesn’t have the technicality or pace to compete with 99% of premier league players. | | | |

Sorry, not that bad? I'm not sure what game you were watching. | | | |

It’s not the losing, it’s how you lose. Yes, Portsmouth might be fighting for their lives, but let’s not forget we are trying to gain promotion. Is that not worth fighting for? | |

Don’t forget that this is the team that beat Coventry twice.
Saturdays result was huge. Many (both Norwich & Ipswich) were expecting a Norwich win with the form that they were in. Often in football a big result is followed by a poor one. Let’s hope they can pick themselves up for the next game. |  | | |

Nobody liked what we saw last night. It's so frustrating to underperform and lose like that when we are so close to the promotion line that we can almost taste it.
But agreed, there's always an overreaction, a flounce, unfair levels of abuse thrown towards McKenna and certain players. Story of the season really. Not nice to see either.
We're still in a good position, just now under more pressure to get results against 'boro and Southampton in particular. I've gone from 90% confidence to about 70%. |  |

It was the performance which is the issue. Completely unacceptable. Very poor. | | | |

Just frustrating after Saturdays performance,
Could of almost sealed promotion with three points last night, under pressure a bit now, bad reverse of fixtures us and saints last night,
Saints have a tricky one at Swansea hopefully a draw but there on such a roll, fingers crossed, |  | | |

Unbelievable we can do the double over Coventry, Hull and Norwich but lose to Pompey, Oxford. Leicester, Charlton and Sheffield Utd - all of whom are in the bottom quarter or so in the Championship. If we beat Boro on Sunday yesterday will be forgotten - hopefully!!! | | | |

Whilst we were poor this is the same Pompey that has also beaten Millwall and Boro home and away. They're fighting for their lives. We are still in a strong position so I am OK putting this behind us and moving on. |  | | |

They were shit against Boro though and should have lost about 3-0 though? Shit finishing and Chappers penis the only reason they won. | | | |

Have you seen boros recent results? They are doing far worse than we have been. So not sure how you draw that conclusion based on one bad 90 mins. [Post edited 15 Apr 9:28]

...because we're playing Sunday?
I agree that some of the negativity here has been a bit much, but so is saying Portsmouth played the "game of their lives". | | | |

Not sure whether hes trying to be funny, but he’s right. We have no chance of winning on Saturday….we’re not playing!
We rarely put back to back howlers out, but we have made Sundays game far more difficult imho | |

They were fighting to stay in the Championship, sadly we weren't fighting to get out of it. | |
| Never forget that on 7th. April 2021, for ITFC, the Game Changed. |

As usual a couple of OTT posts but don't think it's unreasonable for people to be a bit annoyed about last night really. |  |
