SW5 SAINT Posted 14 March, 2020 Share Posted 14 March, 2020 20,000 'fans' + 10,000 glory hunters + 20,000 daytrippers = too many cousins all in the same place at the same time. What a record. Well it looks like they will now have a chance to do it all again next year..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pompey are a long term tinpot lower league team (vast majority of the last 60 years!) and are currently in the 3rd tier! Bizarrely Pompey fans harp on about that 2004/05 game and the 11/12 game as if they got us relegated and stopped us winning the league. Neither of those things are true. Saints didn't win the 2012 league largely because they lost to Reading late in the season, the 2004/05 game didn't get Saints relegated, Saints were still in a position to potentially stay up on the last game of the season.

Ports-myths! literally had this argument with one of the toothless on Twitter the other day, he was adamant they stopped us winning the league, even though we lost to Reading AND Boro shortly after, it’s crazy how twisted they get their portsmyths. Saw a funny thing the other day too celebrating their birthday/inception in 1898, almost as if that club didn’t get liquidated and a new club was formed in 2012. Just like Rangers, want to forego all their debts, liquidate, and keep the history Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saints foreva Posted 24 April, 2020 Share Posted 24 April, 2020 Even them sending us down is a complete myth. They could have lost that day to WBA and we were still down. Worth remembering that we beat them twice that season as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed that and couldn't see why it was to be replayed on Sky unless their editor is a Skate. It wasn't a thriller and totally onesided so for the neutral a nothing watch.

When football eventually returns the football league could look very different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint86 Posted 6 May, 2020 Share Posted 6 May, 2020 Do we know how much they're overspending by at the moment?

Golden Balls Posted 8 May, 2020 Share Posted 8 May, 2020 Interesting thread here about why L1&2 won’t finish. Also, play offs won’t happen. Even if they did and it was on points per game, pompey finish 7th so miss out. So pretty much guaranteed another year for them down there [emoji23] I’m so jealous.

rallyboy Posted 8 May, 2020 Share Posted 8 May, 2020 It does seem that one point would have changed everything. Unlucky. At least they've had the humiliating local derby 4-0 home disaster wiped, as I keep getting told by dentally-challenged simple folk. Unless of course that competition had already completed, which would be doubly unlucky..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Bates Statue Posted 8 May, 2020 Share Posted 8 May, 2020 When leagues around Europe are binning off their top division, how deluded do you have to be to think that England's third and fourth tiers are going to bother to finish their seasons?

Matthew Le God Posted 15 May, 2020 Share Posted 15 May, 2020 I think Pompey are likely to be part of group of clubs trying to have the playoffs extended to more than 4 teams... https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/52683643 They would miss out of the playoffs and finish 7th if the league was decided on a home and away Points Per Game system.

rallyboy Posted 16 May, 2020 Share Posted 16 May, 2020 So their plan is to end the season for most of the division because they can't guarantee players' safety, but set up some self-isolated masked-up mini-league, slightly extended beyond the current play-off system - a pioneering virus-friendly format change which coincidentally would be the only method by which pompey would still be in contention to go up? It's understandable that when the European Championships and the Olympics have been postponed, League One must go on, whatever the risk to public health.
