This. I spent all day with a colleague at a course today and he's one of you losers lol! However he's a great bloke lacking entirely the false bluster the internet musters and I almost feel sorry for him.
That article about Duffy should have been written in the first couple of weeks he played for us when he was settling down. Of course some impatient fools on NSC said some stupid stuff but pretty much everyone since has been full of praise for him. Now that's a manufactured article!
Google has Brighton to Croydon as 43 miles and Brighton to Pompey as 50 so that's nowhere near 'almost exactly the same'. They are both quite near though. From Hastings in the East it's only 59 miles to Croydon but a whopping 83 to Portsmouth.
Not at all. One may think about Pompey if one is from West Sussex but here in the East Portsmouth doesn't register. I believe we've played palace more than them anyway and we are nearer to palace as well.
