I've seen a few people taking bets on whether Terry Devlin or Ibu Adams will be first to be booked.

Without condoning anything, you wouldn't mind an early start.

yellow card to us as long as it's not somebody who has to watch themselves for the rest of the game there'll be a bit of that going on I think there'll be tackles flying in from both sides and apart from anything else it's a game we need to win we're still in that position now looking at the table we're one point above the relegation zone

We've got three home games coming up in a row.

We've got Southampton, West Brom, Ipswich, all before we play our next away game.

If we can start that little run by beating Southampton, everybody's on an absolute high, which could then help you going into those next two home games as well.

Yes, good.

And you kind of think, well, how would he come back into the team that has done well at Watford and has done well at Sheffield Wednesday?

Dezal and Adams were the midfield two last night, weren't they, at Watford?

realistically going to replace one of those two?

Probably not.

But is Pack the type of player you would want playing in this fixture?

I think he is, in a way.

So I kind of think find a place for him.

Not suggesting that he's going to bring back the Marlon at centre-half experiment, although...

We're not overdone with centre-halves, so we could do.

People would have mixed feelings about that, although it's worth remembering that when Pac played centre-half in a lot of those home games last season, we did quite well.

We didn't lose many of them, so that wouldn't be the worst thing.

I would imagine he'll stick with Poole and Ogilvie as the two centre-halves, those two having done well.

last night but certainly you'd want Pac on the bench and if Pompey need a bit of calming down during that game which they may do or a bit of someone to just put their foot on the ball and just be sensible about things second half Pac could be the man to come on and do that maybe you know maybe
