Pompey fan, former 'owner' but outvoted.
NL ⚽️ especially steps 5&6. Fareham Town ST holder.
Once beaten on a marathon finish line by a 🐼 costume.
Love The Simpsons & The Smiths!
PO13
Pinned
I'm done, joined #bluesky.
Differences of opinions fine & welcomed but #twitter is absolutely toxic now.
Disinformation not just unchallenged but promoted. Bots everywhere & hate filled accounts pandered to & allowed to thrive with no consequences.
Horrible place! This seems much more enjoyable.
Rather embarrassingly despite multiple IoW trips over the years to Ryde, Cowes etc have never done East Cowes Vics so finally put that right tonight as off work for visit of Totton & Eling to complete Wessex 1.

OTD 9yrs ago saw a teenage Alfie Rutherford score all 3 in a Bognor 3v0 victory at home to Grays.
2yrs ago saw a local derby between Westbury and Frome in front of a large crowd which was high on effort and enthusiasm but few chances. Westbury edged it with 2nd half goal.

OTD saw very good Hayling win 5v0 away at Locks.
Hamble Club win against B&L which I thought may send B&L down but they impressively turned it round to stay up.
Also a forgettable 0v0 between USP v Fareham where they could still be playing now and likely no goals yet.

Phillips very nearly ruined it at the end.

19yrs ago Pedro Mendes scored a couple of goals. Great escape surely not possible though......
#Pompey 2v1 Man City
March 11, 2025 at 10:01 AM
1st game for over a month as been working abroad.
Terrific performance against title favourites.
To say everyone put a shift in would be an understatement.
Superb.
#Pompey 1v0 Leeds
Ps please keep that up against Argyle on Wednesday!

OTD 92 saw #Pompey 1v0 Forest.
Top atmosphere and result against a Forest side with Keane, Pearce & Sheringham among others.
Macca got the goal, poking home a Crossley fumble.
Shaggy was unplayable at times .

Probably gets overlooked to derby games, Spurs cup SF etc but 15yrs ago what a performance and atmosphere in a season where it was now clear we were in huge trouble both on and off the pitch.
Freddie P getting both the goals. A great day!

Petersfield Town v @crowboroughafc.bsky.social today in the SCL Premier.
Not seen Petersfield since their switch from the Wessex last season.
Crows a very good team I saw several times last season on their promotion push.

OTD 2011 saw #Pompey beaten 3v1 at the Withdean Stadium by Brighton in the FA cup 3rd round.
Dave Kitson got an early red but doubt that would have made much difference as pretty sure we were terrible throughout anyway.
Chris Wood & Ashley Barnes got 2 of the 3 Brighton goals that day.

AFC Portchester 2v1 Havant & Waterlooville Hampshire Senior Cup QF.
Very young Hawks side took lead & played really well, but a near strength Portchy side proved too strong with 2 goals late on.
Harsh on the youngsters but holders go through to SF.

OTD 2yrs ago I along with everyone else got absolutely soaked in one of the few games to survive the weather.
Two very good sides. NM painfully lost in the PO on pens end of season whilst ANS deservedly won title.
New Milton Town 0v2 Andover New Street

Could be a painful Sunday afternoon but🤞who knows?
#Pompey would stay out of bottom 3 with win, point or defeat by only 1 goal.
Sad already doing this in Jan and know have games in hand but all counts as likely to be very close end of season.

One of the few grass pitches to survive the freeze.
Hamble Club 0v2 AFC Portchester.
Portchy better 1st half without creating much & penalty saved for harsh handball.
Hamble started 2nd half well but Portchy got back on top scoring twice for comfortable win.

OTD 2022 one of the final games at old Moneyfields Sports Ground (now 3g John Jenkins Stadium).
Top local derby between 2 PO3 teams.
Moneys 2up but Baffs turned it round for 3v2 win. Top entertainment in @wessexleague.bsky.social Premier division.

From a #Pompey pov happy to see that #Boro goal go in but do feel a bit for #hullcity & especially their gk. Football can be really brutal sometimes as we all know.

A wet Nyewood Lane this afternoon for @isthmianleague.bsky.social Prem local derby between Bognor v Chichester City
Big game for both but especially Bognor as they look to start the great escape.

Don't think I'll get to anymore games now so my end of year statistics #futbology
The 12v0 game was a 1sided Gosport v US Pompey in FA youth cup extra preliminary round.
Best games seen as a neutral probably Totton v Salisbury & Three Bridges v Chichester in their respective PO finals.

OTD 2005 a rare NYE game.
Saw #Pompey 1v0 Fulham at FP. Gary O'Neil got the only goal

OTD 2006 saw Big Sam managed Bolton 3v2 #Pompey

2009 saw 1v4 defeat to Arsenal

2016 saw 0v0 draw with Yeovil on a 🥶 day (if memory serves right we could be playing now & we still wouldn't have a goal)

2017 Pompey won 3v1 against Northampton, the hawk getting a brace.

OTD last year saw (in heavy 🌧) Guidford City 1v3 Farnham Town
Farnham were down to 10 just before ht after poor tackle but still won comfortably. City's goal a late consolation.
Farnham stayed unbeaten in league & would stay that way on their way to the title.
