Evans: A Game You Want to Play In
Wednesday, 28th Dec 2022 16:06

Town midfielder Lee Evans has good memories of last season’s game against Portsmouth at Fratton Park and is hoping to make more when the Blues travel to Hampshire on Thursday evening.

In October last year, Evans was in the Town side which beat Pompey 4-0 on their own turf with Macauley Bonne, Portsmouth old boy Conor Chaplin, Sone Aluko and Wes Burns netting the goals.

The Welshman is anticipating a Fratton Park atmosphere similar to Monday's at Portman Road on Thursday evening.

“It’s a game we’re looking forward to, a game you want to be part of,” he said. “It’s the festive period, so I’m guessing it’ll be a full house at Fratton Park, a game you’d want to play in.

“We’ve got good memories from last season and we’ll try and make some more this week.”

That match was one of the highlights of former manager Paul Cook’s time as Blues boss.

“It was a good result,” he recalled. “But I’m sure Thursday’s will be a different game. We’ll do our homework on them.

“We’ve played them already at home this season. We’ll go there with a game plan and go there and try and get the three points.”

Hopefully Thursdays performance will be like the last 70 minutes Saturday!

If we play like that, not many will live with us

Let's hope our momentum isn't destroyed by the rotten bug going around ; a side with our current impetus deserves to go on and up !

Brilliant atmosphere there last season. Always love going to Pompey. If we go ahead expect the Cowleys to get a hard time from their fans.

Hopefully the same 11 will start.
I know McKenna likes to rotate but that 11 is hands down our best starting 11.
