Cherries: Addison vows to pile more misery on Pompey (From Bournemouth Echo)

Pompey have got themselves some real professionals in there and a very good manager.

We'll have to be at the top of our game to get something from this.

All the Very Best for tomorrow lads !
Near on 3,000 supporters making the short trip top FPark !
UTC

One thing is certain tomorrow - the atmosphere will be cracking! A crowd approaching 18000, a game many Pompey fans thought would never actually happen, and we know only too well how teams draw inspiration from adversity, having done our fair share! Logic says that a team who (in the main) have completed a full pre-season should be comfortable winners against a collection of cast-offs, most of whom have only been training with Pompey for a few days, but don't expect an easy ride. Pompey will put up one heck of a fight, and their "best fans in the world" will create an almighty din! UTC tomorrow, and good luck to PFC in their ongoing battle for survival, a battle which is still by no means yet over.

Well said. Hopefully we will be able to shut up John Portsmouth and his effing bell!!!

Anyone remember our last game at Pompey? Not a happy afternoon, that one! I believe the great enigma that was Wayne Fereday scored his one and only goal for us that day, while Whittingham single-handedly murdered us!

I'd love nothing more than to see BOTH Afcb and Pompey get promotion and play that rabble in between us next season. Except I hope we get 6 points off you this season :)
Good Luck for the season, you are without doubt the best supporters in the country!!

I went to an England game at Villa Park quite some time ago, against Spain. I think it was Sven's first game. 45000 seats at Villa, and JWPFC was sat right in front of me. It was funny though when the entire Holte End in great voice told him where to stick his tuneless wind instrument! Wonder what happened to his cornet? Have only seen him with the infuriating bell in recent years!

Those sars still run deep and the cold sweats have begun! What an embarrasement that game was - a gutless , insipid performance from our players and manager that day -and a totally dismissive attitude from them towards the thousands who travelled that day to watch us get trounced.
Grrrrrrrrr !

Better get to work now and buy some new ear plugs for saturday in the fratton end.
Have a good day cherries fans you are also real football fans .

Judging by the Oxford match I think we will be very lucky to get a point tomorrow. Hopefully I'm proved wrong and we stuff them good and proper.
UTCIAD!

Latest news is that our first crowd chant of the season will have to change. "We've got more points than you!" is no longer an option.
The authorities have bent their own rules and not deducted 10 points despite Pompey still being in administration. Add this to granting permission to sign new players whilst in administration and it looks like different rules apply for some.
(But I'm not bitter!)

Couldn't agree more with your comments, if Paul Groves goes there with a defensive, negative approach, we could be in trouble - we will need to match their passion and commitment to win - this will not be a game for the faint hearted. I hope that Pompey do survive and prosper, the Club's history and supporters deserve to do so. I hope that we match them, are positive and deserve to take the points tomorrow. But it isn't going to be easy and we will have to shew better attacking flair than we have done so far under PG.. But am looking forward to the game, even though I am going with a Portsmouth based Cousin- who will really rub it in should we lose. May the better team win!

We were allowed to make "Emergency Signings" when needed and Portsmouth had no Senior Players at all, nor have the 10 points been withdrawn - just deferred until they come out of Administration. This is more a move to give them a chance to find a buyer and enable them to at least have a chance of winning and avoiding relegation. Should the first 5/6 teams playing them face a "team of boys" a buyer be found and good players recruited it could have a marked impact on the league and promotion/relegation
. Nice to see some "common sense" from the FL - it's a welcome change from the way other teams have been treated - including us!

I have a feeling `we're top of the league, we're top of the leagueeeee, We're AFC Bournemouth, and we're top of the league` will be more suiting though.

Like to see MacDonald back in for Arter and maybe O'Kane. Hoping these two will create enough for our goal shy front line to hitthe back othe net.Will be cheering us on from the North Stand.

What a game to lookforward to! Pompey will play their socks off,and judging by our performance Tuesday,they will have a good chance,especially with their passionate vocal fans. A good judge of a true fan they will stick by their team through all adversity. Unlike some fair weather fans at DC.Best of luck for the rest of season Pompey.May the best team win tomorrow

What ever the result, really looking forward to all 4 sides chanting "Stand up if you hate the s***!".

Well after the league cup debacle on Tuesday its now down to the real thing. Lets hope both the team and the management can produce the goods.

UTCIAD

Your little clubs Cup final/semi derby should now be a more even game now the skunts have cheated the system again and signed a load of Donkeys.
Hope you do better in your Cup finals with the fishfiddlers than you did against Saints.
Play up bompey

Cannot see us getting anything out of this game. We have too many injuries. We are too lightweight in front of goal. At Oxford we would not have scored if we were still playing there now!!.
.
In addition, Portsmouth are at home and they will have the steel and togetherness that administration always brings to a side in trouble. Plus the crowd will carry them through.
.
It is the sort of game that if we go a goal down it will be game over for us, we do not possess the steel and aggression to overcome this.
.
I am predicting a likely 1-0 or 2-0 defeat. If I am proved wrong then fair play, but there are too many factors stacked against us at the moment.
.
At the moment we cannot change things around in front of goal. We have too may light weights. We do not have a target man to change the shape of play in needed. Hence my prediction of a 1 or 2 nil defeat.
.
I am just wondering why nobody has answered my point as to why we have invested highly on quality player and NOT invested in a quality manager.//
.
How do we justify shelling out alledgedly 800k for Tubbs whilst alternatively one could have installed a quality manager on 100k for three years totalling 300k for 3 years!!!. Of course there will be add ons. It does make any sense.

Oh what a surprise, a trolling scummer on here, I guess got bored of doing the same on the Pompey evening news site, bunch of sad cases. AFCB and Pompey have proper fans, not like your glory seeking fadeaways.. Ajax come to town and you have a crowd of 5,000 pathetic. Enjoy the PL scummer, pity the away fans having to come to a dump like Scumhampton.

Frai'd I share smhinto's pessimistic prediction.Light up front and a couple of"Strikers" who cannot hit a Cows Bum with a Banjo.
Hoping some of our walking wounded can get fit before too much damage is done.
Seems there is a danger of carrying on where we left off last season but with new faces.

Smhinto I think we all know why no one has answered your comment about the lack of investement on a manager. Everyone is hoping that PG prove us sceptics, wrong but I am not holding my breath.

II am not totally in agreement that we have lightweights up front. The current situation would not have been a problem for EH or a proven manager.

I don't like when players talks of 'piling more misery...' as you point out they will raise their game and come at us all guns blazing. Humility is far better than talk of hitting someone who is down.

OK, OK, calm down me, calm down me!!

Good luck to So'ton in the PL and Reading too, it's good to have southern clubs up there, but n0bbers like 7th junction really p1ss everyone off!

Sure I want 3pts tommorrow, no question, but I don't want Pompey to fold, even the Saints wouldn't want that, surely?

Time for talking has ended now to stand up be counted and deliver the 3 points.

It will be more of an FA Cup tie especially with Lee Barnard added to the mix.
