In the 80s down here it was almost like that and how we've paid for it since.
Yes. That's the point. We have paid for it. By spending years and years at hovels like the Pissfield and Withdean. By nearly being relegated from thr Football League. Twice. By having Archer & Bellotti in charge of our club, and by never being able to really compete at a decent level all the time we were stuck at Withdean.
Pompey, on the other hand, have paid absolutely nothing (& none of our players have ever, ever been on anything like £90k a week like Sol Campbell was. In fact: none of them are on the £20k a week they signed TWO players for last year whilst STILL IN ADMINISTRATION. All this shit about their fans suffering: how? How have they suffered?? By being relegated from the PL? Well big bloody deal...are you getting out thr mourning suit for every club that gets relegated from the PL or is it just Pompey you have a peculiar sympathy for? Because they might drop into League One? Ouch, how terrible for them...oh...wait...you do know twelve teams get relegated every season across the leagues don't you? Why are they so special that they merit sympathy if they go down?
