'Fantastic to have south coast derby back at Pompey'
Listen to the latest episode of Who Needs Mourinho?

Portsmouth host Watford in the Championship on Wednesday night but there is already half an eye on the first south coast derby in a league fixture at Fratton Park since December 2011 on Sunday.
Pompey and Southampton played out a goalless draw at St Mary's in September but legendary commentator - and Portsmouth fan - Ian Darke believes John Mousinho's side can go one better.
"I think it's a very winnable game because I think Southampton have got something fragile about them at the moment," Darke told BBC Radio Solent's Who Needs Mourinho? podcast.
"They should be up near the top of the table but they're not. They had a little bit of a revival but they seem to have gone back to their old ways.
"I think Pompey, with that crazy atmosphere there is going to be at Fratton Park, could well give them a lot of problems.
"It's a fantastic day to have the south coast derby back at Pompey."
