If we did beat Chelsea in 1960 it obviously didn't do us any good - we still went down that season. My second Pompey game was against Chelsea in autumn 1962, after promotion from Div 3. We lost 2-0 to Tommy Docherty's excellent young team including Bonetti, Venables, chopper Harris, Macreadie and Tambling. Still, that was closer than the last game of the season against them, lost 7-0.

Yes Bubble only Lincoln finished below Pompey and they both went down. Interestingly there was a gate of 31059 on New Years Eve which was a Saturday to watch a 1.1 draw with the Scummers. The gate at the Dell in August was 28841, a bad day as they won 5.1

The beginning of the football hooligan era

Yes there was always good banter before the derbies between both sets of fans but that is when it changed.

Cambridge beat us at fratton last season. Yet, we all know that was Pompey in transition. They would snap our hands off if we offered them a point now.
Personally I think Cambridge are suited to Pompey and with another big fratton crowd on our side we will run out comfortable 2 or 3-0 winners

Smith could play football but he couldn’t score for us.
