100%Red&White Posted 16 January, 2015 Share Posted 16 January, 2015 Another example of Pompeymyth Someone told me this morning that there is great excitement on one of their boards at the 'news' that we only took 257 supporters to Ipswich. Understand that the figure was 1,257. Nothing outstanding but reasonable for a mid week game, live on BBC and sandwiched between away trips to Manchester and Newcastle. I am sure this will soon become part of folklore down there For the record: And who could forget.............? skates away........in the Premier League..........on a Saturday...........not live on TV.

Gemmel Posted 16 January, 2015 Share Posted 16 January, 2015 New North Stand car park to be used Portsmouth Football Club would like to advise supporters that work has commenced on the new Tesco store next to the ground. As a result, the land behind the Fratton End is no longer available for supporters to use as a car park, either during the week or on a matchday. It also means that on Saturday there will be no public access behind the Fratton End until the ticket booths open at 11am. The area behind the North Stand will now formally become the club’s new main car park (access via Anson Road) and, as part of the overall development, a temporary surface has been used. There are approximately 230 parking bays, with 26 of these designated as accessible spaces. All spaces are available on a first come, first served basis and are charged at £5. Portsmouth Football Club are also pleased to announce the creation of a designated drop-off point in Anson Road. Tickets are still available for Saturday’s League Two clash with Burton and can be bought online here. On Saturday, home fans can buy tickets from the booths behind the Fratton End, which open at 11am Read more at http://www.portsmouthfc.co.uk/news/article/information-on-car-parking-at-portsmouth-2208286.aspx#pKdhVgTWbgXmYQOe.99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Car Park behind the North Stand MW said he has asked AB to confirm the car park is finished. Several BMs thought the gravel looked too deep and unfinished. MT felt the specification is not good enough and it is being looked at and the cost for changing it all to black top. MT said the specification is as agreed but is being checked. The surface does not seem to be the answer. DF felt it should have been made known beforehand what surface was being laid. ST said the disabled bit is fine but there are more blue badge holders than the specified tarmac areas and it is very difficult to push a wheel chair through the gravel surface. There is concern that when the weather is wet the gravel will spread everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waterside.saint Posted 17 January, 2015 Share Posted 17 January, 2015 'Saturday’s League Two clash with Burton'......the one everyone is [not] talking about ! On paper, their respective league positions suggest an easy 3 points for Burton. However those will be the hardest fought, most passionately resisted and tinpotmost 3 points they've ever won, they'll be slinking away with their tails between their legs, knowing their victory was unfairly won and wishing they had the support of football's pluckiest gaptoothiest and downright mephitic fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waterside.saint Posted 17 January, 2015 Share Posted 17 January, 2015 I wonder how many skates enjoyed watching us win three times in seven days on TV? They'll be consoling themselves that they're climbing the ladder having made it to mid-table in the 4th tier, whilst we remain rooted to the top three. The fact that results at the foot of their table have gone against them leaving them a filthy fingernail's breadth from relegation won't trouble them in the slightest.
