Little sign of rejoicing fans after victory

-

Pompey fans have been having their say on the Blues’ 1-0 win against Accrington.

A rather dull affair at Fratton Park on Saturday afternoon was brought to life on 75 minutes when substitute Joe Pigott headed home Michael Jacobs’ cross.

It handed John Mousinho’s side their first win in five games.

But there was little sign of rejoicing supporters on social media afterwards, especially with Pompey’s hopes of securing a League One play-off place now officially finished.

Although up to eighth in the table, the Blues are seven points outside the top six with two games remaining.

Here’s a selection of the views shared on Twitter immediatel­y after the final whistle went at Fratton Park.

@LeeCrowhur­st: That was awful. The goal/win can’t hide that!

@BenfieldTi­m: like watching paint dry that!

@DavidRa532­09841: Moan when we loose moan when we win.

@EddieStead­595: Dreadful performanc­e.

@AndyHaynes­147: It’s so weird to see the complete apathy towards a win at Fratton. I understand it, but yet it seems so toxic. Strange fence to sit on. #pup #pompey

@CanadaPomp­ey: A win, but what a dire performanc­e again.

@DanLewis19­99: Nice to get back to winning ways but too little too late unfortunat­ely. 1 win in 6 before today.

@gosport_nooz: Well done I guess.

@Geoffresto­ne: Will always take a win, but too little too late…

@harvboi14: The most boring football we’ve played for years. Even Jackett ball was more exciting at times #Pompey.

@CharlieFar­nsba9: Ok, not the most impressive result from #Pompey but as soon as Towler comes back we get a clean sheet!
