I fear a heavy loss today 08:39 - Mar 20 with 955 views | gtsb1966 | Players look really flat, , not good enough, know they are not going to get another contract etc. I wouldn't be surprised if we got hammered 4-0 today. Next season can't come quick enough. |  | | |  |

I fear a heavy loss today on 09:04 - Mar 20 with 893 views | Chrisd | I would really hope we get some sort of reaction from the players after the woeful display on Tuesday. We could all say the games come thick and fast, but it’s the same for everyone and we’ve probably got the biggest squad in L1. What concerns me is that we’ve had two woeful performances in the last 4 games under PC and what’s been in between hasn’t been that convincing either apart from the first 20 minutes against Plymouth. |  |

However I agree with the OP, I am fearful of a heavy defeat. I have no trust in these players at all. If I had to predict it I’d probably say 0-0. Neither team would be too disappointed with that. |  | |  |

A win is a must for me, particularly after Tuesday. The Cowley’s have had no time to have an impact, they’ve been in miserable form and have no strikers. The way some go on about our squad Lambert did a brilliant job not to have us in the relegation zone. |  |

You’ve got the answers about our squad over the last 4 games, different manager same issues. It’s a top 10 L1 squad, but certainly not one of the best in the league, which some keep mentioning. Don’t be surprised if Portsmouth are a lot better today than they have been over the last few weeks under Kenny Jackett. |  |

"The Cowley’s have had no time to have an impact, they’ve been in miserable form and have no strikers." Cook has had no time to have an impact, we’ve been in miserable form and have no strikers. |  |

Cook’s had longer than the Cowley’s - that isn’t a criticism just a fact. We have no strikers who can play alone up top but persist with the system. Form wise we’ve been inconsistent rather than miserable - post Northampton DWWWLDWL |  |

If hopes are going to be dashed it won’t happen until we play our game in hand final week of the season , or last game of the season at home to Fleetwood. Cook has put himself under pressure by saying the squad is good enough, he just has to get them to perform both individually and as a team. A difficult task. |  |

I fear a heavy loss today on 09:39 - Mar 20 with 755 views | BlueandTruesince82 | Fear the same, too many players with no fight in them, nothing to do with abilty just heart and desire. Plenty who will go to other squads and do really well when things are going well. We have no one trying to pull this team up. No one in that dressing room lighting a fire under some arses |  |

He's barely had longer. And in terms of getting his ideas across he's had very little time with the schedule of play game-rest-travel-play game. Our form since Cook came in, which is the only form we should really use as the last days of Lambert isn't all that relevant for a number of reasons, isn't great. As others have said, even the win was fairly laboured. So not really sure what point you're making. In real terms, Cook doesn't have much advantage over the Cowleys in terms of longevity in the job or personnel available. |  |

I would imagine Cook has said that they’re good enough to instil some confidence in them. |  | |  |
