Loved the 70’s cracking Rock music with the likes of Thin Lizzy and Rush on the scene.
Football back then was an adventure, spending Summers in Portsmouth I could have been a blue but became a Red.
Standing in the TE looking back my best memories of supporting this shit show of a football club. Looked forward to every Saturday and Tuesday night and simply lived for going to the County Ground.
Scary times though and you had to be street wise to avoid the battles in and outside the ground.
What a time to be alive, no pressure in life and always grateful of an older girl taking advantage of me.
Roll the clock forward life is tougher and feels more confined than it used to be. The empty spaces of fields and woodland have gone.
Fishing was better then, no bastard otters for a start.

I can recall playing Pompey a few times in the late 70's and they always seemed to end up in the Townend. You're right football the was exciting but also scary and you definitely had to have your witts about you both inside and outside the ground and going to away games was often a frightening experience as it was a ritual for the home thugs to literally run the away fans out of Town.

aye. I was worried about mine being too hot out here, but they're not. If anything they're cooler than other shoes/trainers and stuff. |

Absolutely, football is far more clinical now and softened in pretty much every way. I don't miss the aggro though TBH. |

The aggro was at times really scary and glad that it's hopefully gone but any younger fans not around in the 70's & 80's won't realise how bad it was |

Ironically down in Pompey yesterday. Still love the place and going back. A fair few 6:57 old boys with the tattoos on show. One of my favourite games still the 3-1 home win with Kammy scoring the first with that diving header and running to the TE to celebrate. Going by train that day was scary. The most impressive thing I notice in the City is the amount of Pompey tops on show, always the same a real hardcore fanbase. Mind you like with most clubs it’s all a little quieter now. |
