Only game I've been to at Fratton was the 4-2 defeat a while back, where Matthew Taylor got Graham Barrett sent off and Butters conceded a penalty. Still remember what a death trap their away end was, with those steep steps leading up to it.
My favourite Pompey game would be in (I think) 1992 at the Goldstone. They'd had a great cup run only to lose late on to Liverpool, and had high hopes of the play offs. I have a feeling they might have been given the East Terrace as my memories seem to be from the North Stand. Anyhoo, it was great seeing the downcast looks on their faces as we beat them 1-0 and destroyed their remaining chance of the play offs. Pretty sure Martin Kuhl was sent off as they reverted to type and started trying to kick their way to three points.
Always nice to ruin someone's season
