So I'm looking forwarded to Fratton Park, and the replay between Pompey and FCUM
Something went wrong again
Last time Brighton played Pompey in the FA Cup was at a chuffing cold Goldstone Ground in January 1993.
For some silly reason it wasn't all ticket, all the more surprsing, as the previous season Pompey came close to dumping mighty Liverpool in the semi-final, and the fans wanted a bit more of that.
Anyhow, as it was a local derby the only guarantee of getting in you needed to get there early, which me and my lad did.
There were only two turnstiles for away terrace fans.
They were next to each other.
One queue went left, and the other went right.
By the time the turnstiles were opened the queues had met and overlapped at the other side of the ground.
Then came all the Pompey 'piss-heads' straight out of the boozer, and pushing in to the front of the queue!
Crap game, crap ground, last 1-0.
