Only Five other English teams have achieved this feat - this great honour for their fans.
Do not underestimate this achievement .
Coupled with our FA Cup wins; Charity shields win; and ( also) joining a small elite group of clubs who became Champions of EACH division in the football league pyramid.
Be loud ..... be very proud, this is endorsed and permanent history - THIS is Portsmouth FC !
While I'm proud to support a club who have won back-to-back league titles, we should bear in mind that only Five other English teams have achieved this feat.............. SINCE WW2.
Just as some people quote stats that imply football started with the Premier League, let's also remember that football existed well before 1945......... who won the FA Cup in their third final in 1939 eh?
Huddersfield and Arsenal won the league three years on the trot in the 1920s and 1930s. A few clubs achieved two on the trot - Preston, Sunderland, Villa and Sheffield Wednesday.
However, irrespective of the time frame, there's one stat that will last forever.......... scum never have and never will will the league!
