I saw Portsmouth play against Villa and Liverpool and to be honest they looked a decent side, tbh they didnt deserve to get nothing out of both games. Thier best players were sold and Adams was in the process of rebuilding. Pennant was a good buy for them.
I think it was a panic (and undeserved) sacking. The owner has been trying to sell the club, if they go down the chances of someone buying it are slim to none. Also, Portsmouth aren't a big/strong enough team to go come straight back up again and i think they'd really struggle if they got relegated (look at Charlton for an example). The team would need rebuilding because James, Crouch, Johnson, Pennant and maybe more would all leave.
Portsmouth cannot afford to be relegated, hence the sacking.
