The only downside is that I am sitting with the scummers! :O Apart from that, I am still incredibly excited for this match (regardless of all the player sales or "loans" at the moment). Sure, we are likely to be unable to actually play a competitive match against them, but it'll be an away day match with a cracking atmosphere WISH ME LUCK!
Good Luck Keep your emotions in check - no jumping up & down if/when we score - no crying if/when we get trashed!
Don't worry even if you lose you can't get any lower! But in seriousness it should be a cracking game, both teams have something to fight for. Looking forward to it as much as you are!
To carry on your so eloquently put thread. I think a slippery smelly Skate will be easily spotted in amongst Hampshires finest. I don't think it will be the fishy smell that gives you away, more like you will be the only one sat down when slim Ricky nets his fourth and Saints fifth
And we are called Skates, not Portsmouth, most of the time on here. Which term of endearment, do you think is used more often Rickie? Don't let it bother you, would be my advice.
I sat with the home supporters for our away day at Watford a couple of months ago- mind it won't be the same as with the Southampton Fans though Jake!
I will do, don't worry about that. For the game in Dec, my Southampton supporting mate sat in the Fratton End, and he struggled but managed to keep a lid on things when Lambert scored, and to give him his due he jumped up and "celebrated" for Ward's goal.
If I was in the Fratton End when that Lamberts went in, I...well, let's just say I don't think i would be posting now
No, Adam - Pompey will thrash you 4-1, I reckon........... Two goals by Reg Varney, and one apiece by Futaks and Allan - your goal from Rickie "Mines a Balti" Lambert
The heart is being ripped out of our team - so yes is the answer. Plus our away form hasn't been good this season so................. yes again although I expect the players to give their all.
You're sitting with scumbags? What's the problem? You're evidently going to be sat with your fellow Portsmouth supporters I'd be far more concerned if you were sitting in with the home support.
That made me laugh Jake! Imagine pretending to celebrate when you've got no passion, emotion or desire to do so. please log in to view this image
There is something about the Fratton End when pompey score (note: WHEN). I took my cousin to the Forest game, he being a massive forest fan, so sat him in the Fratton End - within 5 minutes of taking our seats, everyone around us had worked out that he was a Forest fan; but not once was there any anomisoity towards him, just some great banter! .....although....I cannot possibly imagine this will be the case for this game! Jake - you are braver than most!
