Play Up Pompey!!!!

Hong Kong

From Pompey-Fans.com
Pompey take on Fulham on Tuesday in front of 40,000 - ironically more than the total who will watch both Premier League games between the sides this season. In the 1990s the only tournament away from UK shores Pompey were invited to was the Anglo-Italian Cup - and they didn't do very well in that. Pompey were given the sort of welcome at Hong Kong International Airport that the likes of Manchester United or Arsenal wouldn't have been ashamed of in the past.Players were screamed at, photographed and would have been mobbed but for security barriers keeping back the hordes. They made their way by coach to their base for some rest and some light training ahead of Tuesday's game, which kicks off mid-morning UK time. Play Up Pompey!!!!!!!!!!

The thing is I will be at work when they play thank god for Sky +
