Now for the best of the season
Best Game Pompey 7-4 Reading we wont see a game like that in a while
Best Goal Mantari against Manchester United in the F.A Cup this put our name on the cup for sure. I also like to see outfield players in goal very funny.
Worst moment the four game we lost at the end of the season to miss out on fifth.

Cardiff 0-1 Pompey
WE WON THE FA CUP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh well yes, we arrived at
We then took a trip up to
With a mix of
We arrived at Wembley at about 12.30 and sat and did a little more people watching, which was fun. I notice that there were a darn sight more tv cameras and press than there were for the semi-finals. Once the turnstiles opened we queued up and entered the stadium. We then travelled up three escalators to get to our level, the first time I have ever done that. Then it was time for the important thing – BEER!
After what seemed like a lifetime, we got our beer – the guy pouring was getting abuse from the queue because of the time it took him to serve us. Once the beer was drunk we got to our seats. Wembley had supplied us with flags to wave, not usually my sort of thing but on this day it had to be done.
The ceremony started with the band marching up and down the pitch, which for me is a tradition which has to be done at the start of an FA Cup Final. Then the podiums were bought out for the singers to sing the respective national anthems. The stunning Katherine Jenkins for
Now to the match…
The game started off quite frantically, I was always worried that
At the end of the first half we watched the highlights on the big screens and awaited the second half to begin. The second half wasn’t as frantic as the first but
The ceremony went on for around an hour where Pompey posed on the podiums before parading around and the pitch. Everyone on the squad got hold of the cup even the Chairman and Kev “the kit man” at one point! And one final frantic waving of the Pompey flag it was time to go home happy and elated. Come on Europe!

Portsmouth 0-1 Fulham
The great escape happened at Fratton Park, but it was not Pompey this time. Fulham made there first win against Pompey at Fratton Park to stay up!
Gunwarf was a bit quiet but it was Sunday, we went into Bar 38 again, this is a nice bar this time we had chips with cheese and a couple of pints. It was lovley and sunny hot in fact. After that we took the long walk to Fratton.
The game was very enjoyable even if we lost again! Fulham were heading for relegation, with rivals Reading and Birmingham winning, until Murphy's strike.
Fulham had never before won three Premier League away matches in a row.
And for long spells it had seemed to be an impossible mission.
And then it came. A free-kick from the right was superbly delivered by Bullard and an unmarked Murphy nodded the ball into the corner.
It sparked scenes of jubilation in the stands, although Hodgson looked unmoved.
Four in a row for Pompey now time for a win on Saturday then!
So Pompey end 8th in the league this year and an F.A. Cup Final well done Pompey.
