I hope not, we've had it for decades if we somehow manage to lose this. Hopefully the players know that losing this simply isn't an option.
I'm starting to think being away will suit us providing we can keep our heads. If it was here he would just park the bus and try to frustrate us but they'll have to attack at home with the crowd behind them. They'll be expecting nothing less. Is it greedy to want a couple of first half goals? I mean, any win will do, but I'd love to ****ing trounce them.
Last minute just after they miss a sitter again would be very sweet.... But you're right a total humiliation would take them years to get over and would be atonement for 2005 and 2010.
**** it, let's do dream scenarios. They pretty much batter us in the first half, taking an early lead and missing a couple of more chances before getting a penalty in then 43rd minute which goes over the bar and into the away fans in the Milton end. We then nick one before half time, which replays show to be offside, before adding another 4 in a 20 minute second half spell leaving the Saints fans doing Ole's n singing Sha la la for the last 20 minutes while Fratton empties.
Let’s go 7-0 humiliation for them, 5-0 up at half time and Fratton empties. Second half Saints break the world Keep Ball record with pompey not getting a touch for 19 minutes and 422 passes, before Pierre drills one into the top corner like a rocket from 47 yards.
Loads of stress n tension that will quickly turns to joy and ecstasy. With the added bonus of seeing them get all excited and then just ruthlessly taking it away from them.
Not being greedy, but a drama free 4-0 for me. 2-0 half time, 3rd just after then the 4th with 10 mins to go. No stress, no drama
