Title: This Saturday
Post by: FrattonChris on November 28, 2019, 09:47:50 PM
Just to wish a safe journey here (and home again) to all coming down.

It won't be a packed Fratton Park (we may be averaging 17,500 for league games but for some reason never get to that level in early cup rounds).  But we can be noisy b**gers even if there's only 8,000 of us.  And we are quite capable of losing to anyone - your manager will have scouted us and be well aware of just how poor we can be defending set pieces.  I sincerely hope Pompey win, but am well aware that we could lose.

You've probaby checked our club site.  If not, the Good Companion pub is away fan friendly and ony a few minutes walk from the ground.

May you have a great day out; please make a lot of noise - your players deserve nothng less; and do expect some stick for wearing red and white stripes - our northern neighbours, Scumhampton, traditionally wear the same shirts.

Thank you for that. It’s believed the crowd will be about 8,000 even with reduced prices
I’m sure you will hear our fans chanting.
Looking forward to a great day out.
We are hoping for another Birmingham, Sheffield Utd, and 15 other league scalps + Spurs, Everton and another’s replays.
Happy days, whatever the result.
