Portsmouth boss Paul Hart has
shrugged off the latest round of sack speculation.
Hart has seen a mass turnaround in personnel with a large number
of key players being allowed to leave in the summer.
The former Nottingham Forest boss has been busy trying to add to
his squad in recent weeks, resulting in the fact just three players
who were at the club last season started the league game at
Aston Villa.
"Through May, June and July there were a number of names being
touted around that were going to take the job on, there is only me
here, there is only me who stayed here," Hart stated.
"There is only me that's gone through the rubbish in the summer.
I'm still here I'm still backing the club.
"No-one wanted it at that point. It was there, it was up for
offer. I have had so many names thrown at me they could all have
had it and they didn't, but I did.
"You can call me I'm an idiot, I have been called that before,
but I'm me and I'm standing up and I believe in the players here
and I think we turn it round.
"It's a results-based business so I'm vulnerable in that respect
but in terms with what I do on the pitch and the way the players
respond I don't have a problem."
