I know it only takes a second to score a goal, but he's only managed about 5 minutes active football per match in the Championship this season. How's he going to fare against half decent opposition?

I’ve just been reading that Portsmouth actually held the cup for seven years the last time they won it in 1939 due to the competition being on hold for the Second World War.
Seeing as Cardiff hasn’t won it since 1927, I suppose that slightly gives Portsmouth an edge in experience!
Actually I know nothing about the sport but my colleague tells me that Portsmouth are going to win.

I've gone for Portsmouth but think it will be close.
Since they qualified for the Final Portsmouth have had a dreadful run and its sometimes difficult to get the winning mentality back for one game.
Also Defoe is cup tied and neither Kanu or Baros will strike fear into the heart of the Cardiff defence.
But nice for Harry Redknapp to lift a trophy after all these years.

I like Portsmouth as a Club and Harry Redknapp and wouldnt begrudge them lifting it at all. If I wasnt a Red, and because of the Fowler connection, I'd rather Portsmouth won it.

Should be a good game either way.

I'm predicting 3-3 in normal time with Portsmouth winning in extra time. Should be a great final!

Lord knows why, but I guess I'll be rooting for ex-hubby's club for auld langs syne. Memories of Guy Whittingham & the chimes, I guess. Play up Pompey, Pompey play up... :D
