Fans savour vital victory over fellow high-flyers

POMPEY fans have taken to social media to celebrate not only victory against Hull City – but the Blues’ return to the top of the League One table.

Here’s a selection of the views shared on Twitter after own goals from Jacob Greaves and Josh Magennis handed the visitors an important 2-0 win at the KCOM Stadium last night...

@JakeAlfordPFC: Great result that. Some good individual performances. Marquis, Cannon, Naylor, Rasmus all decent. Up the blues.

@RyanCovey1: Cor, if you had offered me 10 points from the last 4 games against promotion rivals, 4 clean sheets and top of the league at Christmas, I’d have laughed in your face!

Kenny’s turned it around and I take my hat off to the bloke! Up the Blues.

@Mourby: Top of the league for Christmas, what a great win.

@pompeyblue1980: 2-0 away win without a single shot on target defensive masterclass that. Raggett easily mom.

@RobShiers: WE ARE TOP OF THE LEAGUE #Pompey

@pompey_goals: Wow supposed to be our hardest games and yet nobody challenged us. 10 points no goals conceded top of the league for Christmas #Pompey.

@FeedMeAnarchy: Winning a game 2-0 without having a shot on target is the most Kenny Jackett thing I think I’ve ever seen.

@Boston_Rabbit: It’s a beautiful thing TOP OF THE LEAGUE #Pompey.

@Shovell96: Not a pretty performance, but what a 3 points that is.

Marquis and Cannon superb. 5 clean sheets in a row, 10 points against 4 top 10 teams 3 of those in the top 6.

Really are on to something atm. Fair play to the boys and Jackett. Deserve credit.
