BBC Radio Solent's Portsmouth commentatorImage source, Rex FeaturesPortsmouth match-winner Josh Murphy described it as a "horrible" game of football and it's hard to disagree, but I doubt anyone connected with Pompey will care. The only goal in the match against Blackburn was a moment of rare quality and the only clear-cut chance in the game. Rovers looked short of confidence and very limited going forward.

Whenever you interview a player after a loss they always tell you they cannot wait to get back out there and put it right. If there is a game coming up three days later they view that as a positive. However, a two-week break might be exactly what Portsmouth needed after the loss to Preston. Of course, there is frustration that the consecutive defeats in winnable games have seen their cushion over the relegation zone down to just four points. It is not a bad time to take stock though.

John Mousinho was the angriest I've ever seen him after the 2-1 defeat to Preston. This was a match that got away. Portsmouth were the better team in the first half but squandered their decent attacking positions. The second half was different after four changes by Preston boss Paul Heckingbottom but Pompey seemed to have done the hard bit by equalising with just seven minutes left. Mousinho was particularly angry with the way Preston won the game.

A bump back down to earth for Portsmouth after the incredible high of Sunday's win against Leeds United. Plymouth defended incredibly well and extremely deep, but Pompey played into their hands with misplaced passes - and poor defending allowed two goals on the counter-attack. Last season in League One, team after team came and parked the bus at Fratton Park but that's not been the case this season and it was as if Pompey had forgotten how to play against teams who did.

Regan Poole this week became the third Portsmouth player to be tied down to a new contract. The defender has only made 33 appearances in his near two seasons at Pompey but despite the injuries he's been an impressive figure. Poole was outstanding before suffering a serious knee injury last season and while follow-up injuries have affected him in this campaign, he's shown he's still the same player. Colby Bishop and Terry Devlin have also signed new deals to extend their stays at Fratton Park.
