pilsburydoughboy Posted 10 February, 2010 Share Posted 10 February, 2010 I was at a meeting in Southampton yesterday with a security firm.A rep from the security firm did mention that the "Pompey Boys" are coming into town for Saturday Night.Their plan is to get mobbed up in Woolston and come over later.They had been tipped off by the old bill i am not sure about it but it does tie in with what MLT has posted.

Tractor_Saint Posted 10 February, 2010 Share Posted 10 February, 2010 Be careful out there folks. When I was in M&S at Hedge End today I'm pretty sure there was a skate at one of the checkouts that had a Pompey shirt on under his big puffy jacket. Couldn't be sure but he walked funny and talked funny. Think it might have been just one - but he might have had mates too in the close vicinity.

Tac-tics Posted 11 February, 2010 Share Posted 11 February, 2010 I seriously am gutted about Saturday, I live down here, so I can't really drive up on the day as I'll be considered a skate and could full well be trying to 'infultrate' Saints...

They aren't going to close the borders of Southampton and set up checkpoints. Lots of Saints fans live to the East of Southampton. It's more of a problem when we play at Fratton, and the police try to force you onto a train to Southampton even though you live in Southsea.......

Does make you think. Anyone coming on the trains is IMO not looking for trouble. They're well policed and there'll be spotters on them anyway. Skates wanting to kick off will probably arrive in cars being dropped off in Woolston, St Denys, Bevois Valley, Bitterne etc before joining up IMHO.

If they were, they wouldn't have been in cars but in vardo's. And i bet they were only pointing at the pub to see if it needed it's fascias and soffits replacing. It's good to be cautious though, serious business this pointing at pubs and looking shifty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he the gobby skate you were on about because he spent the whole time he was in there talking about 'shanking' people etc. He had the smallest vocabulary I have heard from a person over 18 months of age.

Dimond Geezer Posted 11 February, 2010 Share Posted 11 February, 2010 Serious question guys: I’m taking 3 kids to this match & would preferably like to get them home intact (it’s valentines day on Sunday & damaged kids won’t do me any favours at all ). In our prem days I always parked in Woolston and was considering parking their again for this match, however, I remember when we played the skates before, a load of their mob got off the train there, fortunately the nipper & I had got on the bus and got out of the way quickly, and after reading through this thread, it looks likely that there may be trouble in that part of town on Saturday. We now park in Centurion Estate but I wanted to avoid going in that direction as the skate fans busses will need to be passed on the way back after the match, not a prospect I am really looking forward to. What are your opinions as to the safest place to park should I go for Woolston & risk getting caught in a riot, or park in Centurion and …. Er…..risk getting caught in a riot?

Someone at work has said that the police are getting Pompey off the train at Woolston and then walking them over the bridge to avoid walking them through town! To me this is utter madness.
