Surely we can win this one. Can’t we ?
Despite our recent results we must surely enter this game as favorites to progress into the last sixteen of this everso prestigious competition.
A victory – And the papers will claim we can use it as a springboard for our league form and start to steadliy climb the table
A loss – And the knives will be out for Paul Hart without a doubt. If indeed they are not already.
In fact, some are even calling it a ‘must win’ game for Pompey’s under pressure Manager and although I do not personally subscribe to that view there were strong rumours that a certain Mr Hoddle and a certain Mr O’Leary have been contacted by a certain Premiership club, doing the rounds this afternoon.
Anyway I am sure all that talk will be academic as our boys in blue will return from their long journey victorious !
