Another of United's new boys - or rather 'old' boys - David Kelly was impressive in his home debut, demonstrating why he's still worth a contract at the age of 34 with great positional sense, movement, some nice touches, and no shirking of challenges.
Unfortunately it was his willingness to challenge which resulted in Portsmouth's Andy Awford being stretchered off with what looked like a serious neck injury - Kelly rose to challenge Awford and Hoult for a ball on the edge of the box and the Pompey player was pole-axed by his own keeper.
For long periods the game was a rather scrappy affair with United often looking like they had only recently met one another, and Portsmouth being the side playing anything resembling decent football.

 Own goal sees off lacklustre Pompey
The bare statistical difference between the two sides might have been the own goal that went in against the one that didn't, but Pompey lost to Grimsby for the second time in a month because they probably didn't think they could win.
The own goal that eventually proved to be the winner came courtesy of Andy Awford, although there wasn't much else he could do.
Grimsby were allowed to build down the left and Tony Gallimore was given time and space to deliver a cross into that dangerous space between last defender and goalkeeper.
