Reds Gunwharfed – Portsmouth 2-0 Liverpool

Six hundred and still not out for Carra
Reds army at Pompey’s South Coast
Three points on a non naval engagement
Mission before the Christmas pot roast

White shirts added emphasis to surrender
Plumping a break from ritual Red
Avram two, Rafa nil
Could have read the score instead

Belhadj the Algerian’s flawed foot
With an acute angled screamer
Bull Masch saw Red in Fratton’s china shop
Swansong before joining Barcelona?

Defensive Dossena left of centre
Made cautious Rafa look a right wally
In reality the game was dead
Long before Piquionne’s volley
