You can say that again..

Not for the Portsmouth sc*mbags

The last time the 60s and 70s boys have their final say eh- this fixture shouldn’t be played for another 5 years at least right.

 

In all seriousness though it’s 2019, no one is gonna go out there for a scrap will be safe as any other games really- one would only expect more intimidating chants at worst- and that is how it should be

Very naive, it will kick off if there's no bubble. They tried to kick off at the under 18s game where we beat them 7-0 a few years back.

Getting really worried this won't be on TV, the media are w*nking over United, City and Liverpools ties and barely mentioning ours...

Definitely, the rabid locals gestured, red faced and frothing at the mouth with rage to cut our throats several times during our last visit to the dump... they are mental

Do you really think that? That may be the case with our facepaint and replica shirt wearing mongs which will make up 90% of the allocation, but they will 100% be looking for trouble And given the opportunity would attack any saints fan... as it would be if the game was played down here.

No bubble would result in trouble, without a doubt.

I suspect the OB will go for a ‘train bubble’. Ie run 1 train and escort from the station to the ground.

They will be up for it. For a third division side it will be their cup final.

to be fair if they were top of the premier league they would be bang up for it and so will we.

While very sympathetic to the argument about prioritising tickets for those who travelled to Fulham, I think that it is far more likely that tickets will be issued a la away game to Bournemouth, ie those who have bought most tickets for away games over the last year counting downwards (perhaps ten away games, then nine etc). People will have different views on how fair this is (I think it is fair because some people will have had a genuine reason why they could not make Fulham this week) but I imagine the over riding focus will be our most “known” fans via customer number. And so logic will be if you have not been found out as a lunatic in ten games you are low risk.

This is absolutely f*cking EVERYTHING.

So if you didn't want to draw them, don't buy a ticket.

If you think staying up is more important than winning this, don't buy a ticket.

If you're not going to sing your f*cking heart out, don't buy a ticket.

If you're going to take photos or videos, don't buy a ticket.

If you're thinking about vlogging, don't buy a ticket.

If you'd buy a Saints/Pompey half half scarf, don't buy a ticket.

If you think people who don't wear replica shirts are "thugs", don't buy a ticket.

This is the single best draw possible, absolutely buzzing for it.

It was just about this in 2005, they continually delayed our train out of Central with all kinds of ropey excuses. It was a train with a lot of 'old faces' on it so they wanted most of their lot inside the ground before we arrived. It was then the slowest escort surrounded by the Robocops with just the odd toothless gimp waiting around or hanging out of windows. Not that it was a bad thing in hindsight, we were already 2 goals down long before we got inside so at least only had to watch less of that gutless Redknapp side out on the pitch.

Yup i was on that train, one mush took over the tannoy system and told people that you were allowed to smoke weed. I was stood next to one of the police (well crushed up next to to be honest) and heard over their radio that the reason for delays is because the skates were chucking bricks onto the line infront that had to be cleared.

What the hell is wrong with having women there? Why should a loyal fan who meets the ticket criteria not go simply because of their gender? So long as they are up for giving it some and singing their hearts out then who cares? I see plenty of blokes sitting at St. Marys in silence or moaning about everything and there's plenty of women who are amongst our most loyal and passionate fans.

This is absolutely f*cking EVERYTHING.

I'm probably too old to go, as when you are young there is a definite buzz about going to 'must win' games.

However I reflect upon the fact that I have never seen Saints lose at Fratton Park in 6 visits so I should really try to be there as a 'Lucky Charm'!!

I’m not sure there’s even an argument, no way will they prioritise the Fulham game.

Will be ST holders with 8/9 aways from this/last season and it’ll steadily work down from there.

Considering they showed West Ham and Newport instead of Forest/Derby I don’t think it’ll be on TV either.

Forest have played Derby every year for 10+ years, I’d be shocked if we weren’t on TV.

There’s some absolute ******** on here already and it’s nearly a month away.

All this don’t buy a ticket crap if you are this, if you do that.....

For **** sake grow up you’re embarrassing yourself

Forest have played Derby every year for 10+ years, I’d be shocked if we weren’t on TV.

True but it’s still a bigger game than bloody West Ham Newport.

It's quite obvious why they chose that game, given Newport's cup run and giant-killing achievements last season.

Interesting reaction from their training ground this morning.

Very excitable bunch.

Great draw. Can't see it being on TV, as they usually only show one game on Tuesday and one on Wednesday don't they? And the big boys will get preference

Course they are. It's live Espanyol v Barcelona, Tranmere v Liverpool, St Pauli v Hamburg, Oldham v Man United. The giants visit their plucky little neighbours. This is the biggest game of some of their lives, they never believed they'd get the chance to play us.

A few years later there was footage of Napoli copying our arrival at Fratton station that day on.

Haven't been to Notarfkrap for 50 years. Just might be tempted if security isn't too stupid.

Or I'm declared too old.

And I wear a replica shirt.

Yeah, that guy! Haha.

I remember the tannoy too.

Also, ludicrous stops at places like Fareham and Havant where no one dared to get on anyway.

Priority should be lads who won’t run

Why would Charlie Austin be interested now?

A couple of these are sectionable anyway, never mind attending the match.

Not his biggest fan but glad we’ll have Hojbjerg for a game like this. At least he gives a **** so will hopefully get into a few of our lot to tell them how important this is. If you saw their game against Sunderland in the play-off second leg last year, they came purely to fight and completely forgot they were there to play football, if they try and do that to us we’ll absolutely destroy them.

Ah well,nothing like a Pompey-Saints game to bring out the neanderthal in usually reasonable people. Tribal innit.

I also remember the gap-toothed freak. Actively encouraging us to lob stuff at him. Hope his collar was felt by the OB.

So according too ericb skd only real True Warriors And True Supporters should be buying tickets then? Ok bet they will get theirs n no problem as they appear to qualify 100%.

How soon after the draw are the televised games normally selected?

This surely is the tie of the round, even without the saints glasses on. Simply HAS to be one of the televised picks. Fingers crossed Redmond is fit for it and we can put a full strength team out and put them in their place! Looking forward to it, it's only been 7 years...

Will qualify more than easily, especially as one of the few at Everton in the cup last season

Also who said warriors? Not one of those things suggested that. Just normal fans who make a racket, there wasn't even any mention about replica kits in my post.

God people on here over react about things that WANT to read, rather than the reality.

This, some absolute tosh is written on here. People are apparently not fans if they don't support in the exact same way others do.

If we're afraid of playing them just in case we lose and get embarrassed then that says a lot about our confidence levels as fans, deary me!

 

It's great to have proper derbies, who frankly gives a sh*,t about Brighton or Bournemouth.

 

Let's f*&€ing have 'em.

Exactly this. Some people need to grow a pair. I couldn't name one current player from their Mickey Mouse club. We are rightfully several classes above them, in all aspects (squad, manager, stadium). I 4-1 can't wait for us to give those minnows a jolly good rogering.

Well, Sky did pick Newport Vs West Ham and Lincoln Vs Everton over Nottingham Forest Vs Derby this week...

I really don't get the excitement playing a pretty average division one team. Over the last sixty five years we have hardly ever been in the same division for very long. when we have played them we have pretty much come out on top most of the time except for the period approaching our relegation and the cup game at St Mary's when they were too good for us. There never was much of a rivalry in the early years, this has only developed in later years. I see them for what they are, a club that took millions out of creditors pockets, should have been liquidated and really have just staggered along for the last eight years in the lower divisions.

They are full of their own inflated importance. If we really wanted to take them down a peg it would be better to ignore them and treat it like a game against any poor opposition. Personally I expect a lot of huffing and puffing and a likely win unless Ralph has second thoughts and avoids risk, in the light of losing Redmond, Djenepo and Obefemi and sticks in most of the surplus to requirements who should still win. Winning in itself won't really mean anything, so what, we beat a mid table division one side, last round we beat a mid table Championship team.

Some of the Carabao games are being streamed to ESPN channels in the US. If it's not on Sky we might be on one of those.

So much wrong with this post its incredible, but this comment really is something else.

Amazing how people view things differently. Watching us win at Fratton would without doubt be the finest moment I’ve ever had supporting this football club. Easily. It means that much.

As it did to them when they beat us 4-1 at St Marys in 2010; We were the League 1 side and they were in the Prem.

Pompey-Saints will always be important to any true fan of either club, perhaps it's different for people who aren't originally from either town though, why some of them have never even been to that craphole..

in the era where we are in, where the prem is f-ing dull, no one matters bar the top 6

This is a reminder of what football is all about. It has been ages since we played them and we due a win at theirs ffs.

it will be a cracking night for those who manage to get tickets!!!
