Yep, there's Fred Dinenage and his daughter Caroline for starters.....
This rivalry thing was invented in the late 90’s by the respective nutters from both clubs as far as I’m concerned. My dad’s generation were more likely to support both teams than fight with the others, and most of my generation had never really heard of Pompey.
OK but my point is that the rivalry didn’t exist back in the 60’s or 70’s when hooliganism was rife. It was a copycat thing that came about because the local nutters felt left out.I think it was a bit earlier than that.Chilcs. I remember at school being a rivalry between the teams, even though we didn’t play each other with the exception of one glorious Saturday afternoon in 1984
I also remember being at Fratton Park in 1987... jeez that was a sizzling atmosphere

Doomed..............going down thank you Mr Reed you complete muppet
Not wasting my energy on Les Reed he’s more than culpable for the demise of my club.Now you can start the promotion thread. In all honesty Craig, do you think that Les Reed has deliberately engineered this situation? I don´t think so. What has really happened behind the scenes is a lot of guesswork. Speculating is fine but can be wasted energy.
To be fair Ides, Craig is only voicing an opinion that quite a few Saints fans have already voiced......me included.
Edit....accept not necessarily deliberate.
It was a genuine question, but your point is well made. I'd be really worried if we were run by metaphorical sons.I was using artistic licence Fran, well spotted though.

how was the porridge in prison?very well thank you been away on Safari......................
Just need to sort out my old avatar now.............................
Les needs to be held to account. Mistakes have been made. I just don't understand people wanting to bin him off. Are there loads of better options out there, ready to come into our system that we don't even understand now. With our new owner who we don't know. Just imagine if Gao gave one of his sons the job instead, I imagine people might start regretting that damp looking baby on the floor next to the bath.
