There's only one team in Hampshire…
…and one collection of eleven footballers who just happen to be wearing the same (red and white) kit. Portsmouth destroyed - not just beat - Southampton yesterday. We are now bottom of the table, with the only good news being that we still have to play two fellow strugglers: Norwich and Crystal Palace.
Saints also recently threw away a 2-0 lead against Aston Villa to lose 3-2; that alone makes us worthy of relegation in my book. It somehow feels wrong - Saints have been top flight for 27 years - but I am now resigned to playing against Preston North End next season, and our local derby being against Reading, not Portsmouth. That is, of course, if Reading continue their spectactular underachievement and fail to get into the playoffs/win the playoffs/get promoted again.
