Another entry in this series and i did not for the life of me realise Portsmouth used to be Division FOUR!!!
Portsmouth : P6 W2 D0 L4 F4 A10
We played them in the bottom division as recently as 1979. We also had 3 League Cup ties against them. Of course 2 legs as recently as 1999 0-0 and 0-3 respectively and a 1-2 defeat at home in 1972. Now apart from Man U Chelsea etc if we get through to the 4th Round of the FA this year i will take Pompey so i have a 5 minute walk to Fratton Park!!

Think I mentioned in a thread before that home game with Portsmouth (we won 3-2) in October 1979 was my first TUFC game. Next October, the nearest home game to (after) October 4 will mark my 30th anniversary as a paying supporter of this great club we all love.

My apologies Andy, i do read everything on the rolling 100 but i seemed to have missed that...
Just for note my records show the result was 2-1 on the 10th October 1979 if that helps

I first went to Fratton Park for a 4th Division game against Walsall in 1979/80 (att 21,000).
My next visit was for our League Cup tie in 1999.
Pompey goalkeeper Alan Knight appeared in both games!

You are, of course, correct Brett. 29 years on, my brain is no good!
