Portsmouth boss Paul Hart insists climbing off the foot of the Barclays Premier League is a bigger concern than the threat of swine flu at Blackburn.[LNB]Pompey can climb above Sam Allardyce's men with victory on Saturday at Ewood Park, which has been at the centre of a recent outbreak of the virus.[LNB]Hart said: "When you are working in the close confines of a football club you have to be careful. When things can be carried around you have to be extra careful.[LNB]"We're always conscious of that, and are sending people home if there is anything we think is wrong with them. We take measures.[LNB]"You have to be ahead of the game. Swine flu is serious, of course. Can we catch it from them on Saturday? That's the least of my worries at the moment. Trying to get some points from the Blackburn game is my biggest concern."
