West Brom 2 - 0 Pompey - 15th May 2005 - (Part 2)

Fantastic pictures from the Pompey perspective and a brilliant reminder of a of unique day of solidarity between opposing football supporters. We may be rivals in some respects, but we are all human and all love our team. Play up Pompey, Boing Boing Baggies!!! Good luck next season and we'll see you back at the Hawthorns.

Thanks for the pictures and a truly unbelievable day on Sunday.
It's been so many years since two sets of supporters united together - back in the days when crowds were able to mingle freely - and you have created a bond with the Baggies that will be lasting.
Can't wait to visit your ground next season and be able to join you again in singing "There's only one team in Hampshire!"

Tremendous! Thanks for sharing both those and a great day. My 7-year-old lad was with me and I feel privileged that together we witnessed history being made and a unique experience. I'll never forget it. Truly memorable.

Looking at these from down under .Fantastic pictures thanks heaps for putting them on the net.
Takes me back 30 years when I went to Portsmouth with the baggies and the two sets of fans were spitting at eact other across iron railings. Still the best slagging competition I have ever seen. Seriously though. Than you Portsmouth for helping make Suday one of the best days of my live. My old man is 82 and even he was dancing around the house. Cheers Phil

As a Pompey season ticket holder from old working many a Saturdays I only got tickets from a very good friend for two games this season. Pompey's 4-1 destrustion of Scums and this truly unprecidented day. Loved every second of it and your pictures capture the memories so very well. My favourite memory was on the back seat of a very large Pompey coach convoy leaving the Hawthorns. We had a Baggies banner up in the back window and half the people on the coach had Pompey other half West Brom shirts on. The looks of sheer joy on the thousands of faces young and old who cheered us out the city was amazing. Funny also the look on the BCFC fans faces as we passed their pubs singing Boing Boing Scummers Gorn!

What a fantastic day this was equally as enjoyable as beating scum. None of us could believe that we were willing our boys to lose and singing ALBION..ALBION..amongst othe Baggies anthems. It was great to here them oblige at the end. My greatest memory of this day was sitting on the back seat of a coach amongst a very large convoy being escorted ot of the city. We had WBA and Pompey banners and scarves up and the look on peoples faces cheering us out of the City was unbelievable. By contrast the look on the Birmingham City supporters faces as we passed by one of their pubs singing Boing Boing Scummers Gone, was highly amusing. Cheers guys!!

Thanks! Great pictures I'm in their somewhere as a baggies fan. You more than played your part in a piece of history and don't think there was too much of a quarter given. The two best sets of fans in the world and definately in the Premership! Glad you also had a prize to take back home and next season....

Play Up Boing Boing!
