rallyboy Posted 14 May, 2018 Share Posted 14 May, 2018 You guys need to let this go. There is nothing remotely funny about us dodging a relegation that was nailed on for nine months and ruining their party that they sang about for ninety minutes every week. Nor is it comical that they dodged a play-off place when their goalkeeper's attempt to replicate Boufal's goal against West Brom ended abruptly in his own six yard box against the Bury youth team. However crap the season is, it's always nice to see someone worse off. But there's nothing to see here, so move along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buctootim Posted 14 May, 2018 Share Posted 14 May, 2018 Laughing at therm for having utterly ****e team / ground / management / owners is not a wasted life. I still wish they were better than they are though. It would be good to play a reasonably close game once in a while. Its become less a rivalry and more like mocking the disabled.

But it's just not the same. They will be seeded for the Carabao Cup First round, so they have a decent chance of progressing to the second round, where we will be a seeded team and they will be an unseeded team.

All down hill from there though!! Ah yes, the FA Cup they bought with players they couldn't afford. And they wonder why it all went downhill from there. No doubt, Solent will be reflecting on the immorality of the FA Cup win, and how it has banished them to he nether world of football. I heard a snatch of a radio interview with 'Arry somewhere this morning, maintaining he is ready to return to management. Saggychops said; "I fink I could do a job for somebody, somewhere. I'd like to build a new team, see where I could take it." See where you could take it? How about to bankruptcy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I promise I didn't laugh at the Bury goal, I felt a bit sorry for the keeper, until I saw him throw his arms arms up and seemingly trying to blame someone else. I watched the S****horpe and Rotherham play off semi final 2nd leg ( you have to finish in the top 6 to get into those BTW) and thought the quality was pretty good and the football played was tidy and skilful.Do your lot play that quality? if not you are going to have trouble finishing high in the league next season.

Pamplemousse Posted 23 May, 2018 Share Posted 23 May, 2018 The News website is AWFUL, I kept trying to see the comments and it just kept loading more articles to read, over and over again (although this one came up which is fairly amusing... https://www.portsmouth.co.uk/news/anger-as-caravan-encampment-mars-portsmouth-beauty-spot-1-8507868 ) Anyway, I did make it to the comments section, and surprise surprise, the deludedest are out in force The atmosphere generated by the Pompey crowd will be transferred to the new ground just like it was transferred to places like Wembley, Old Trafford To top it off a nice bright stadium will be visible to traffic coming in to Portsmouth from the motorway giving the whole area an affluent look. Hahahhaaa Horsea Island - spend big, build a well designed 44k stadium that will be a leading venue on the south coast - attract more fans - more revenue etc - Think juventues stadium but with a kop end now thats very tempting. I have no words for how deluded this comment is. Sums up everything wrong with them. Nothing can change the fact that there is not enough room to convert Fratton Park into a modern football stadium, incorporating all the thinks a modern stadium requires, corporate facilities, adequate car parking, retail, eating and drinking places, in other words a retail park. And last of all a 40,000 capacity. Lol not asking for much, Portsmouth is of course well known for having loads of greenfield and brownfield sites available... Fratton Park will be very costly to improve to a suitable capacity (35000) There we go again, desperate for an unnecessary bigger stadium One of Pompey FC's greatest assets is the stadium, old-fashioned and aging it may be, but when full, with the crowd in full voice, there are few more passionate or intimidating grounds for opposition teams to play in...ask AC Milan, or Man Utd or Arsenal Yeh... Whilst I love watching football at Fratton Park, I also cannot see how the City could cope with gates in excess of 30,000 on a regular basis. Don't worry, I don't think that will ever be a problem for them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
