Hey guys, Pompey fan here if you don't mind...
Everyone's really looking forward to tomorrow, particularly after the verdict yesterday. We know some pretty shammy things have been happening at our club in the last few years. Not something we are particularly proud of and the court decision yesterday was no cause for celebration. It's still a weight off our back though and finally we can actually worry and talk about football, rather than that playing second fiddle to off-the-field dramatics.
To be honest, I for one am looking forward to this season more than any of the last few. Pretty much everyone is disenchanted with the Premier League, while some of the away trips this season will be a blast. i reckon we will have about 2500 up there tomorrow, and in reference to previous posts, if you know anything about Pompey fans, if we do go 2-0 down, we will make even more noise! I reckon it will be a good game. Yes we've lost a few players and our weakness will be our lack of strength in depth, but consider the fact that we have the likes of Mokoena (S Africa Captain) Marc Wilson (NI international) Kanu, Nugent, Tommy Smith, Utaka, Boateng (for now), Michael Brown, plus journeymen more than proven at champ level like Mullins and Richard Hughes and we're more than a match for anyone in this division. Just don't expect us to make any subs.
Anyway, a few questions tomorrow as first time to the new ground. Arriving by train can we walk it or do we need a bus? Are there any good/suitable pubs between the station and ground to refresh ourselves in?
Looking forward to a good game and 3 points
