Best Of

Some fans are so obsessed with attendances aren't they.

But how Rovers fans can call another team that usually beat them, pointless is a bit comedy. Being the tiny relation of a club in their own City.

I’d play Udoh on the left with Kone down the middle.

Bristols appear to have an average attendance of just under 8,000 in a city of almost 500,000 people.

We have just under 5,000 in a town of 75,000.

So....if around 6% of the locals come to our games and 1.5% go to theirs then I think darkbluegas should have a lie down.

Strange game, comfortable but unspectacular. Some good spells where certain players really stepped up.

Simons, Scowen, Humprhries looks like it brings back both the quality and balance to our midfield so desperately needed since Morley left. All three were very good. Scowen just edged it for me.

Shout out to Udoh too. To lead the line for the second time in four days and retain the same energy, whilst also grabbing another goal, is really impressive.

The vote spread confirms what I felt last night, that it was the best midfield performance for almost 2 months. Long may it continue.

I predict Simons will make a big impact today. The midfield needs a bit of a rotation and he looked like a really good player. By halftime nobody will remember who Adam Morley is.

Comparisons aren't always fair but Simons does seem to be as close to what we needed as we could have hoped for while also taller, younger and fitter. Early days but very promising. Also maybe one who would be willing to stay long term.

Very impressed by The Dodmeister’s post match interview. Very interesting what he had talked to Humphrys about in training between Saturday and last night and how clearly delighted he was for the player, the process and the outcome. Confidence builder all round.

Loads of Simmons chat round me, people also desperate to coat Fred, Bakinson and Leahy off. Sad stuff.

Dodds giving it the Wilko Johnson across the technical area.

In fairness if he has been instructed to punt it we probably have not seen how he is with his feet . I can't remember Portsmouth doing anything other than playing out from the back last season . He got league one goalie of the season being part of that .
