It is a shame about the clashes as it was a cracking game which we dominated until they scored their 2nd when we just fell apart at the back chasing it.


I always laugh at David James but he was superb today and kept Pompey in it.

Hello Declan


I do like football, although I do not understand all the rules. My team is Manchester United and, when in my twenties/thirties I regularly used to attend their matches. At school I had this dreadful crush on George Best (RIP Georgie). In fact I received something like one week's detention because I "engraved" his name on one of the school desks. Does that answer your questions?;-)

Thank you LM. Reminds me of days gone by. I never even saw him play as I was stuck in the middle of Ireland, but when he left MU I was devastated and I don't use that word lightly. The slightly curious thing was that years later he was just a few feet away from my table in a restaurant in Mayfair as he left with a beauty on his arm. I couldn't nor did I wish to say anything to him. I was glad to see him though.

well neither did I. I was still at school/living at home and my parents were poor. By the time I was working and could afford to attend matches, he had left Man. U.

Me too! Gosh I can totally relate...

A memory to treasure, I'll bet.

Before I leave this thread...one final treat...just watch the way his legs accelerate and manoevre past the other players...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytSt7EnHhXc&feature=related
