“Is that all you take away” the chant from the Forest Green fans to the sold out away end full of #Pompey fans. Peculiar

@JakePompeySmith

Awful ground and a honking place to get to but another ground ticked off and three points for the blues #Pompey

Todays ground has to be up there (for the worst). Tea bar for 1200 Pompey fans has two lads running it 30 minutes queue for a tea,gents can't fit more than a dozen in it. Away terrace has one 4 foot wide exit gate. Bloody hill takes 30 minute to walk to ground. No Pub within 30mins of ground

Today proved what most of us have known for a while…it’s Mingi’s season baby!

Mingi’s quickness of feet & spacial awareness I think sees him playing at a higher level soon. His ability when receiving ball with back to goal to beat his marker in one motion with his back to goal & break froward with the ball is so exciting to watch #pompey

@CowleysCows

Other than the fact we won, everything about that was awful

@pfc_harry

Much much needed 3 points!! Birthday presents to go around. Excited to come across the pond next week for the next two homes games at Fratton!! @Pompey

We had just the best away day today following #Pompey to Forest Green. Great to see the two birthday boys Danny Cowley and Jay Mingi plus two of our real favourites from Pompeys recent past just the nicest of people. Have a good evening all PUP

Ground 65/92 Poor game but 3 points and a clean sheet much needed. Glad I’ve ticked it off but not one id be fussed on rushing to do again, away end way overcrowded, back home by half 7 is a bonus tho #pompey #doingthe92

@CheeesyChips

@Pompey Happy with that! Loads of injuries, half the team playing out of position and still manage a win away from home. It was as predicted, a tight win away. Not pretty but job done #Pompey. Well done Mingi and Swanson. Let's get our team back fit soon.

@PeanutPompey

Great result. Mingi brilliant. Terrible game to watch. Forest Green ground awful. Amazed the away terrace passes standards for League One. #Pompey
