Fran’s Watford Blog:  The Portsmouth goal was down to a rare Selvik mistake, although the highlights showed that Bishop’s final touch was rather fortunate. The shot from Louza was going in until Schmid intervened, the bar and post have not been our friends in recent games. But Selvik was definitely the busier of the keepers, so it is hard to argue with the result. Unlike on Friday, the Keben sending off seemed rather harsh. I hope that the club appeals it.
