'Nothing to play for .. Onto next season ... Portsmouth fans believe faint play-off hopes are all-but over as Blues draw with Bolton
Aiden O’Brien’s strike early in the second half gave the visitors the lead, before Kieran Sadlier equalised from the penalty spot with 10 minutes to go.
The stalemate leaves the Fratton outfit 12 points off the play-off places – with some believing they’re faint hopes of reaching the top-six are all-but over.

Here’s how fans reacted online.
@PORTSMOUTHFCLEE: A distinctly end of the season feel to this game tonight
@EggtekPFC: The play-offs were never really achievable. Onto next season.
@JSweetman92: Missed opportunities and poor final pass costing us again. Have to take the positives out of these games with nothing to play for though. The football we play is at times delightful, and if we can take a lot of this into next season we can build on it
