Looking forward to the first annual GDC Skate hunting day in the wilds of west Sussex, having prepared ourselves at the Yapton Beer Festival first.

There is bound to be some sort of talking point with the Laird in attendance.

 

[Bevendean Hillbilly]

I don't care who wins as long as we get a nice close up of the f***ing bell ringing knob piece tosspot crying into his tatooed hands at the end!

pics anyone?

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Yay.

 

[Bevendean Hillbilly]

And i agree with the comment about that stupid "Play up Pompey" Bollocks

Play up? up where? stupid sailor loving brick throwing paedo bashing...

CAAAAANNNNTTTSSSS!!

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Caahnts indeed. Twats.

 

[Questions]

One of the first times I ever saw football violence was when Pompey came to the goldstone for a league cup tie in about 69/70. It was unbelievable in the bus station down under the bridge.
I was only 8 or 9 but still remember it so well.
Fratton was a horrible place to go in the early seventies as you could walk from the Fratton home end to the away end without hindrance.
1976 is still vivid in my mind as David Kemp scored their goal that beat us 1-0 before 35 thousand on Boxing day.
We have never been big rivals with them. Bournemouth was a bigger rivalry.

 

[Easy 10]

we have NEVER been rivals with Bournemouth.

 

[Gully]

...but we share a loathing of Southampton, them because they are near neighbours and us because of an alleged match fixed with Spurs to deny us promotion to Division one.

 

[Easy 10]

I'm fairly indifferent to Southampton.

we have NEVER been rivals with Bournemouth.

You are just a mere slip of a lad, what would you know.

If I remember we missed a penalty in that game at 0-0 as well? Or was it a year or two later?

Not me... I'll be cruisin' at 30,000 feet on my way to Puerto Pollensa for 2 weeks.

Happy days :yahoo:

I shall be watching it and I haven't watched it for years. Typical NSC: we get thread after thread on here slagging off the Premiership and the big four - and then when two 'non-Sky' clubs get to the final everyone's STILL moaning. Apparently Portsmouth and Cardiff are the 'wrong sort of small club' - mainly because their fans aren't to everyone's taste.

Well personally I'm really pleased that two 'proper' clubs with proper, local fanbases are in the FA Cup as opposed to Chelsnal or Liverchester. They're going to have a great day out and good luck to them.

What he said. Apart from Liverpool v. West Ham, how many of the recent finals, all of which have included at least one of the 'big' boys, have been any good? We get excruciatingly dull finals year after year, then when we finally get one which may be an open game, which will include two clubs to whom the occasion actually bloody means something, and people are bored by the prospect? I just don't get that at all.

What you said as well! And it was West Ham who made that final exciting.

 

[1066familyman]

I'm watching

 

[RM-Taylor]

I'll be watching and cheering on Portsmouth

 

[Turkey]

I'm really looking forward to it. Don't mind who wins. It's so refreshing not to have a big 4 club in it! Best FA Cup in years for me. Loved it this year.

 

[SeagullTim]

No I won't.

Not only because I cannot stand either team playing, but I'll be playing cricket, which starts at 2.
