There was an earlier game at Millwall not long after their fans wrecked the Milton End turnstiles and Deacon banned Pompey fans from going to the return fixture. The week before the game I took the afternoon off and wandered down to Cold Blow Lane to buy a couple of tickets.
On the day of the match we drank in their local, The Royal Archer, and then took our seats in the main stand. When our first goal went in we sat on our hands and muttered disapprovingly, but as each subsequent goal was scored it became very apparent that the stand was a quarter full of Pompey.
We ran out 4-0 winners (a brace each for Callie and Channon, I think). The home support applauded our 4th and booed their players in equal measure!
