Pompey Match Thread

Thought as the local native I'd kick this one off by letting fellow exiles know that PFC have informed me that away end tickets will be available from the box office at Fratton on the day of the game this year, once tickets not sold by Stanley have been returned, presumably coming down south with the team. Available from about two and a half hours before the game, they expect.

Also there was a vague item on the local TV news tonight about Pompey "awaiting instructions" regarding Coronavirus precautions following their FA Cup match against Arsenal last week - but as they've already played twice since, I can't really see them being asked to postpone our game.

Hopefully see some of you there

Chimer, i presume the ‘away’ ticket office is still next to the ‘away’ entrance?
Couple of season ago, after going to the ‘home’ office as usual, I remember having to do a complete circuit of the ground before we found where it had moved to.

Our SLO, Robert H will bring the unsold tickets back to FP

Team will be travelling whatever is going in the "background"

All is good; business goes on

Pompey, Fratton Park is a top place to visit

I'm guessing the tickets will come from a hut in the concourse behind the Fratton end, and we will be in one corner or the other of the Milton end. But only a guess …..
