You obviously don't get the psyche of Pompey mushes who have existed for centuries, winning innumerable naval battles, on the basis that they are down-trodden, worthless under-dogs who should be underestimated at your peril. We are scum - famous for not being famous - until the nation depends on us, and then we rise up with a fury that is terrible to see and give entire continents a bloody nose. We come from an island off an island and have the smallest-minded insular mentality psychologists looking down their hoity-toity noses have ever examined - until they wake up from a right battering. Portsmouth boys revel in being put-down, for then we delight in smashing all the odds to vanquish the mightiest of mighty foes.
Oh, and can we have our clock back, please?
(from a 'son of Trafalgar' - and proud of it!)
