That seems very odd?:confused: Says tickets can only be bought at Store First Stadium on day of game.:eek: seems mental to me.:confused:

Re: Pompey Game
 

certainly mental for that game. I would have thought that Pompey were a shoe in for selling out their tickets. At least pre-sales would give us an idea of how many police we need to provide doughnuts for.

Re: Pompey Game
 

Pompey fans are as bemused as we are

Portsmouth Forum - Are Accrington Stanley serious?

Re: Pompey Game
 

They have every right to be annoyed, this is crazy wi no explanation forthcoming. Pompey have always had a great following ,n sky or not am sure they would sell out the away allocation, Fans who travel so far deserve better than this imho.:( If many more travel than the away allocation, the police will have trouble they never imagined, I find it hard to think its anything to do wi them?

Re: Pompey Game
 

Quite right Cashy, unless they are thinking of allowing the Pompy fans the whole of the scatting shed and the Copice end ,that would probably accommodate 2000, the problem then arises if 3000 travel.Stanley are being very short sighted, and probably dangerously so in HMO?

Re: Pompey Game
 

I will be amazed if oer 2000 don't travel Tommy.:confused: I know times have changed, but last time they played Stanley in the Cup Thousands came, and after that when we had No team same thing at Rovers, always brought a large following.

Re: Pompey Game
 

Yes Cashy I do hope they know what they are doing, could be a whole lot of trouble in store.

Re: Pompey Game
 

Meself i would not like our fans to be treated so shabbily on there travels, So therefore the same applies to anyone else.

Re: Pompey Game
 

Their average away support last season was 436 across all league games, and ratio to their home support is 7.6%.

Given the time of kick off and live on telly I really can't see over 1,500 dragging themselves out of bed at some ungodly hour and travelling to Accrington, even though they have great support for where the club are now.

Re: Pompey Game
 

perhaps someone connected with the club will enlighten us - Mr T ?

Re: Pompey Game
 

- - - would also be interesting if the match prog reprinted reports on the '59 FA cup game up yon and the replay down south against our 9 fit men, with 'keeper McInnes limping badly on the wing. Dan, is this your area ?

Re: Pompey Game
 

A pretty stupid decision agreed.
