Another difficult day for Portsmouth FC fans - not only does the loss to Spurs leave them one game away from relegation they have a lost a further three players to injury. It is too early to tell at this stage but it looks like the injury to Hermann Hreidarsson is quite serious. After the game Harry Redknapp told the BBC "that the players heard his Achilles snap like a gunshot". Several structures can cause loud sounds when they are injured so it is difficult to gauge what is injured at this stage - we'll update you in due course.
Avram Grant praised the excellent work being done by the medical staff (are they being paid?) in the light of the fact that they have lost seven players to injury this week alone and they currently have 11 first team players out injured. They only managed to name 13 first team players today so unless David James and Danny Webber only have minor knocks that leaves them with only 10 recognised players for the next game. Not a good week to be a Pompey fan.
We wish Herman Hreidarsson a speedy recovery and a better week for Portsmouth fans.

Confirmed today that Hreidarsson has torn his Achilles tendon - he joins Becks in that unhappy club.
