FA Cup 3rd round

Post by Chopper Dave »

Away to Norwich.

Championship leaders. That's a toughie, but doable.

got nothing to lose.

if nothing else it should be a good benchmark as to where this group of players are.

Hopefully they'll be concentrating too much on staying top of the league!

Definitely not my preferred tie. I'd have liked a sell-out at Fratton Park or away to a top 6 prem team for a quick payday. However, it is doable, although it could be a dull match if both teams are concentrating on the league!

Personally very pleased as it's a local away game for me and my son. Could be a cracking game from two in-form teams.

Every success with that, needless to say we'll be hoping you can put them out. If Norwich get to the quarter finals it'll be excuse enough for an open top bus tour of the city :? so wish for any defeat or misfortune that comes their way.

Thing is I think Portsmouth have a very good opportunity here. City will focus entirely on promotion to the premier league (and an instant return the next season) so they'll most likely field a weak team or nothing like usual league business. Not only that you yourselves have 2 finals in the last 10 years to your name, which without wishing to appear condescending is in fact a very good achievement. Would like to see the club on a run again, it can start again in January when you eliminate those 'reprobates'.

A little disappointed, but I would rather we go out quietly now and work on promotion. We don't have much luck in Norwich.
