Club-themed funeral for Portsmouth fans

An undertaker is offering Portsmouth football fans a club-themed funeral.

Part of the £1,795 package includes a coffin painted in the club's blue-and-white colours.
The funeral cortege drives past Pompey's Fratton Park ground and mourners the option of a wake at the stadium.

According to the funeral director Lee Fletcher, 36, said: "This is a modern option for loyal supporters and I think both of them will like the idea. Many fans have died of boredom watching Pompey , its more dangerous than being on the touchline of a Wivey Ladies game"

Local pompey fan Omar Rawlings is yet to make a comment.
