You'd like to think that players and fans could bottle some of that intensity from Sunday and keep on using it.

I heard...

Someone say, and I can't remember now who it was, that if the atmosphere was like that at every home game, we'd probably win a lot more than we lose over the rest of the season.

The fact is, it's not going to be.

You can't manufacture that sort of atmosphere in a game that doesn't mean as much.

But certainly, because it's still fresh in the mind, I think you can hope for some of that to be carried forward into the West Brom game.

West Brom is such a six-pointer, isn't it, to use that cliche, that I think you need to use some of that.

West Brom, you know, like Southampton, I mean, I thought they were pretty quiet, but they had good numbers down there.

West Brom, I think they were going to bring a couple of thousand.

They do tend to make a bit of a noise.

They've got a very good away following.

They've had some big days out down here.

here in the past so Pompey fans will need to be on it as well as the players on Saturday but yeah as the games go by you know the derby and everything around it gets forgotten doesn't it as other games sort of take centre stage but we certainly showed some of the sort of fighting spirit in that game you know the

I mean at one stage it was literally fighting spirit wasn't it by the north touchline when Swanson and the other fella had a few handbags and everybody else joined in all good fun but you need that spirit to be there whoever we're playing never mind if it's just Southampton we need that to be there we've been playing Ipswich and Hull and Sheffield United and everybody else yeah I understand we're on a charge for that melee or fracar or whatever you want to call it

Yes, I think both sides are, aren't they?

Failing to control your players and probably a bit of punishment coming for the... Was it two?

Were there two separate pitch invasions?

There was certainly one, wasn't there?

There was the chap who had all the time... He had more space on the front part than some of our forward players would have liked.

He took up a lot of space.
