Skipper Michael Doyle has outlined to desire to help Pompey start climbing back up the divisions.

The Irishman is enjoying life in his second season at Fratton and told The News: ‘I’m enjoying it and liking it. I love playing for the club. These things (contracts) look after themselves.

‘If I carry on with the football it all looks after itself. That’s the most important thing — to get the club back on their way again.

‘I came here to help the club back up the divisions. ‘I didn’t come here just to play for Portsmouth. I came here because there was a plan in place to get promoted.

‘I want to be a part of that and I am enjoying it. Hopefully we can do it this year. There was disappointment last season with the play-offs. They stay with you.’
