| Portsmouth v Swansea City : Match Thread 17:52 - Oct 31 with 23975 views | ModeratorC | Pompey v Swans : John Mousinho speaks plus do Pompey have a weakness 3rd Nov 2026 08:00The Swans are already in preparation for their trip to Hampshire for tonight’s game against Portsmouth (7:45pm) Head coach, Vitor Matos, who we reported exclusively yesterday will not be joining Portuguese club, Sporting Lisbon will be looking for the same domination and effort that saw his side demolish Blackburn Rovers on Saturday. 0 Portsmouth 3 Swansea City 1 : That’s eight goals conceded in two away games 3rd Nov 2026 22:38The expected Portsmouth tactics showed up tonight, coupled with a rank-awful Swansea performance for nigh on seventy minutes, resulting in another away defeat. The time-wasting, fake injuries and targeting of Swansea players, which left Stephen Welsh unable to walk off the pitch, pretty much sorted this game out. Portsmouth, though, had the desire. Swansea did not. 1

| Portsmouth v Swansea City : Match Thread on 21:43 - Nov 3 by AnotherJohn | The 5-0 vs QPR was the low point of the season, but this was was dire as well. I wasn't expecting much creativity from the side we turned out, but the lack of effort, the wayward passing, the negativity, the weak finishing looked more like the performance of a relegation side. Some of the players need to take a long hard look in the mirror. |
Spot on. Was painful to watch tonight |  |

That was the turning point. We were finally in the ascendancy and that would have been game over.. Then it went south. Way down south! |  | |  |

At one point in that game we should have been ahead away from home the 89min , football is a game of fine margins, this could have gone our way, the the 3-1 result is irrelevant. Football, move onto the next game, then the next and then the next. |  | |  |

But we’re stuck with Cabango The whole set up was wrong Our full backs are nonexistent tacklers Fulton Bless him is limited and Stamenic shocking tonight Maybe that’s the reality check we needed |  |

For me that was a 2-1 defeat that could have gone either way in the end, the third was a bonus for them. We could have won but we lost. We need a reset in the international break, hopefully Welsh's injury is not as bad as I fear. |  | |  |

That was a tough watch for sure. The gremlins that were evident against QPR, were present again tonight. Even if we have a bad day at the office, which happens, a well organised side, at worst should have got a 0-0 draw tonight. They were a poor team, much worse than QPR. |  | |  |

I think you know the answer to that so let’s stop this yes? You of all posters on here are better than that. Everything he has said is right. You can’t defend that. There’s losing and there’s not turning up. From the kick off they weren’t at the races. The only reason we got more return late in the second half was because they played further back and gave us more room to pass the ball in midfield. We hadn’t had a sniff up until then and on the rare occasions we got the ball we gave it away cheaply or just didn’t have a bloody clue what to do with it. What I say next is not a knee-jerk reaction from tonight but what I’ve seen so far this season. I think we may finish in the play-offs but we won’t win them. We’ll not be anywhere near top 2 as there are better teams and squads than ours. I will say however that if we can keep the main players in the squad and improve it in January and summer we could be up there next year. Not this season guys, there’s too much lacking at the moment. |  |

Why is this Cabangos fault? |  |

| Portsmouth v Swansea City : Match Thread on 21:42 - Nov 3 by Fireboy2 | Luck, simple as These sort of teams play for the percentages, most often it doesn't come off. Sometimes it does. |
percentages always seem to come off against us! It wasn't luck, we were rubbish for most of that game. Our defence gifted them 2 goals, our keeper had a poor night but then I'd ask (just like at QPR) who had a good night? Too many players are underperforming, specially away. You've got to wonder why? How can we so good against Blackburn then 4 days later play like a bunch of strangers. |  | |  |

No, not tonight to be fair. In fact he was better than most. Why the hell didn’t we see Monga tonight. His apparent pace and ability may have been just the key we needed to unlock Portsmouth but again, he didn’t get a sniff. When Widdel came off surely that was his chance. If this is personal with Matos then let him go back. But if he’s got no intention of playing him, don’t reserve a seat on the coach for him. I’d loved to have seen him later on in the game tonight to prove us right or wrong. |  |

It will come down to if our injuries are short or long term. Two central defenders and several in midfield is hard to cover. As for OHL doesn't it P you off when he continually criticises our team when we lose and hides when we win, without actually watching the game. I'm not ashamed to say it does me. |  | |  |

As ever you are the voice of reason,Stewart scores and we are 2-1 up in the dying minures. Football is all anout fine margins,they could have been down to 10 men at the end of rhe first half following the foul on Lissah by their player already cautioned. Widell had a mare. Injuries have given Matos a headache.... We out this behind us lime QPR and move onto the next game. |  |
