Lets B Avenue Posted 3 September, 2017 Share Posted 3 September, 2017 Always liked Rotherham. My first Saints game was a 6-1 win against them in 1964. Even forgave them that appalling night in the FA Cup when Delgado showed what a waste of space he was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eurosaint Posted 3 September, 2017 Share Posted 3 September, 2017 (edited) Let's be fair to them, they're now mixing with the big boys ! Massive clubs like Rotherham with world class players such as Lee Frecklington are always going to pose a major challenge ! They did their best in a cauldron atmosphere with the faithful urging them on... but just fell short (not to mention the multi million, worldwide TV audience) ! Gonna be a long season but at least they are back in the big time Edited 3 September, 2017 by eurosaint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden Balls Posted 3 September, 2017 Share Posted 3 September, 2017 Just for the record, I was at Victorious all three days and I saw precisely three Skate football shirts the entire time (though a few more bootleg t-shirts with the football club logo on them and a couple of polo shirts). Anyway, under 10 in three days, on Southsea Common. . I've worked in Portsmouth (on the road) for nearly 9 years. The amount of skate shirts/badges I see these days are about 5% of what it used to be. See a lot of general big PL clubs shirts these days.

The amount of skate shirts/badges I see these days are about 5% of what it used to be. See a lot of general big PL clubs shirts these days. For full disclosure, I saw a bloke in a Skate tracksuit top on Hedge End Station yesterday. Obviously it was the badge from the last seasons in the Premier League and before the L1 relegation (2008-2013), not the one they've been using for the last 3 years.

The9 Posted 7 September, 2017 Share Posted 7 September, 2017 Teeeeeeeeeechnically the last season with the "Prem" badge was the first season as fan owned in L2. Their first Sondico shirt was adorned with the older badge before the rebrand they'd clearly planned whilst faffing about during the (last) L1 relegation season. Here they are against the mighty Newport County (which can really only be in L2 ). Remember this guy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danbert Posted 12 September, 2017 Share Posted 12 September, 2017 Re, fat in the pipes... My dad grew up Portsmouth in the 1940s and apparently there used to be a completely different type of fatberg in those days. Fat from the sewers would gather together on the surface of the sea and drift away in huge lumps. So he claims, anyway.

Occasionally see him on the train, had no idea he was even political, never mind an MP. I'm fairly sure he's not into football either... Oh and re: the floodlights, Fratton was the first ground to play a Football League match under floodlights, the first English ground to have permanent floodlights was... The Dell.
