| Match Summary | The Toon are clear at the top the Magpies have been in Marbella – the Young Tory conference in Southend moved Saturday’s match - With Pompey pushing for promotion too this is a big game. In the end the Toon end up well tanned by Pompey. Whits angles in, then Symons converts a corner. Keegan’s team fight back, but Knight is equal. New reserve keeper Horne faces a long wait. |
