Michael Jacobs provided Pompey boss Danny Cowley with his latest injury setback on Saturday – with a hamstring problem keeping him out of Saturday’s draw against Fleetwood.

Despite being named on the bench for the visit of Scott Brown’s side, a niggle in the warm-up prevented the 30-year-old from being used as a substitute.
