The Best of Times, the Worst of Times

March 8, 2010

Following a season of relentless disappointment and let-down, Pompey fans were celebrating victory in the FA Cup quarter final against Birmingham City. Two very different finishes (one a tap-in, the other a quality finish) from Frederic Picquionne sent the Pompey faithful into delirium at a packed Fratton Park to send them back to Wembley for the third time in three years.

However, this joy may yet be short-lived. The FA are believed to be discussing the possibility of kicking the Blues out of this year’s tournament due to their off-field problems. The levels of their financial difficulties has been mentioned ad infinitum this year, but it could yet lead to further problems. Following months of dedicated and passionate support for a team that is destined for relegation, this is surely the last thing that the fans of Portsmouth deserve.
