    And this makes his antics all the more embarrassing.

    I see you're continuing to dig out a Saints fan with a disability. Stay classy, mate.

    Hang on, are we suggesting Westwood doesn’t have a disability?

    That man has the the biggest mental disability you’re ever likely to see.

    In the same way that all Portsmouth fans do, yes. But nothing that medical science has been able to identify or indeed treat.

    Can't remember the last time I felt so hyped for game but equally feel as sick as a dog.

    Apparently the Portsmouth fans have already been bubbled into the stadium? That’s insane :laugh:

    Seen as we have to play Soton next week, it's pleasing to see them looking just as bad as Pompey.

    Southampton fans are so lifeless. Must be a dull club to follow.

    Can we not play this derby again for another 13 years, please?

    I went to Taunton Town vs Weston Super Mare yesterday and that felt like more of a derby than this did.

    Portsmouth much better first half. We were much better second half. They looked well up for it first half then gassed. Our constant long balls forward from fullback and sloppy passing was infuriating and Still’s defensive formation is worrying. Hopefully going forward we move the ball like we did second half. First half was ****ing dire.

    Props to Fraser. He’s a limited player but out in a great shift. Downes needs to sort his life out atm. Looks a shadow of the player we signed.

    All roads point towards another dogshit managerial appointment from these shite owners.

    Will Still? I wonder if his middle name is Phil?

    Terrible game to watch and didn't even feel like much a derby game. When the managers went at each other in the first minute I thought here we go but nothing happened after that.

    Standard fare for a midday Sunday kick off.

    Game needed a goal to spark it but had 0-0 written all over it for most of it. Similar to the Old Firm borefest last week.

    Strange career this guy, he quit playing as a teenager and moved into coaching because he loved the Football Manager games. Did a sports coaching course at Myerscough college, just out of Preston, and did an internship coaching our U14s then went back to Belgium as a video analyst.

    Guy's done well as I bet he's earning a class wage at Southampton.

    Definitely didn't feel like a derby game. Too robotic, like a lot of football matches these days, no spontaneity. All the players are mates off the pitch these days too, so there isn't much hate on the pitch like there used to be.

    Players have become Southampton legends from these matches. But, nobody's going to be remembered from today.
