Really? I'm 62 and that was the best season of my lifetime
It was a great season but I had forgotten just how much shit came though the door as well as the good. You take the rough woth the smooth woth Harry and there was a lot moore of the smooth that season.
Talking generally, Deep.
I really never took to Quashie but whether he was as bad as I remember is debatable. He did a very good job down the road, so his constant skyrockets are now remembered with more affection.
There can’t be many players who still have their name chanted nearly 20 years after they left.
OK, but you said 'that season' which made me think you had someone mind, and I genuinely could not think as single bad signing that year. Haydn Foxe was the only one I could think of, but I'd regard him as an OK signing rather than bad one. That season is my all time favourite season in nearly 60 years of watching Pompey, better than the premier years. Only the first year of fan ownership comes close to that, but that was nothing to do with the football being played.
Quashie was a Pulis signing. One of his best probably but that's a very low bar..
