[Football] Pompey

[Giraffe]

Top of league one, unbeaten all season and now 23 games unbeaten stretching into last season.

Are that lot finally getting their act together again?

The circle of football never better demonstrated than in ourselves, them, saints and Bournemouth!

Wouldn’t begrudge them promotion, would make for a great derby against Saints.

And Bournemouth.

League One you say? Is that below the Championship? Sorry, it’s just that it’s been a while since I looked that low down.

 

[AmexRuislip]

I'd rather see Pompei in Championship than Pompey.

 

[GT49er]

And Bournemouth.

A little local shenannigans for us too - a lot better than that poxy M23 derby thing anyway.

 

[Carlos BC]

Some of their fans are very rude indeed. I was on a Seagulls travel coach on the way to Villa that overtook a Pompey coach. Rather than waving in friendly camaraderie, a number of their young men made hand gestures that were most unpleasant. I was very shocked and had to drink several pints on Moretti on arrival at Villa to help me deal with my emotions.

Who gives a sh*t

I suppose it's nice to see small teams in deprived shitholes do well.

f*** that.

I do enjoy their annual bid to avoid promotion. I'm hoping that, given last year they were nowhere near, they have a spectacular misadventure this year. So far so good.

 

[Peacehaven Wild Kids]

Sorry…who?

 

[SweatyMexican]

I live a mile from the ground and I've still forgotten they existed.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Personally I hope they remain a lower league club forever. They have had a cracking start, however they have a proud history of blowing up in the second half of the season in recent years, so let us hope that continues.

How we can look down on all our little south coast cousins - plucky, about to be unlucky and join the stagnant Saints milling about in the mediocre middle of the second division, soon to be joined, maybe, by the Fratton faction itching to join the fray. What a triumvirate - the Skates, the Scummers and the Cherries battling to be the best team on the south coast. Oh, wait, have I overlooked another team . . . .

 

[The Grockle]

I get some pleasure seeing them in the third tier but part of me would quite like a season that saw Us, Portsmouth, Southampton and Bournemouth in the top division.

I agree with that. It feels right that all three should be slugging it out in the championship whilst we tour Europe.

Simster might have something to say to you OP. He loves Pompey!

Whitehawk?

 

[Eeyore]

Whitehawk?

Quite. They are hardly Hawks.
