“Right then lads. I want you to go out there and not embarrass yourselves, and all the fans for the rest of their lives”.

Yeah but we’re no longer a complete basket case* of a club…we’ve got money and respect! *a Cardiff fan I know once referred to as such. About 5 years ago. It’s all cyclical!

They’ll pay it! And it’s not like most of the people they bring will have seen Maidstone play before! (I’m starting to think like a Venture Capitalist).

it went through the net first.

Ah yeah! Didn’t really do it for spurs though right?

Try using the one we stuck 3 goals into recently. I thank you.

Yeah they had Pascal Chimbonda and some Ecuadoreans (?)…including that Valencia bloke who was good for Man Utd. So it would seem. He is fresh in my mind as the old man reported that De Zeeuwe sat a few seats in front of him at Fratton Park recently.

Yeah. He was very good…but like most of these named, not for us.

I thought Hreidarsson but couldn’t be sure. Mick Quinn!

Arian De Zeeuwe was the first I thought of…he’s a doctor now! A bloke I thought was a great signing for us from Pompey, was Paul Hall. He did nothing for us. John Aloisi of course! Now I think about there’s been a few.

it definitely does. Although I remember him…and I’m 46, you know. I also remembered that he played for Pompey, the old man’s team. Not sure there’s been many who’ve played for both…🤔

Okay

Stop letting ‘facts’ get in the way of my superstitions.

We’re gonna win the cup!!!

I saw him power past Andy Pearce to score for them at HR.

I’m getting ahead of myself… But if we were to lose to Maidstone would that be some sort of record for going out to non league opposition 2 years on the trot?

In my time we’ve had shock defeats in the cup to Sutton Utd (played in yellow kits), Cambridge Utd (played in yellow kits). Remind me what colour do Maidstone Utd play in…

Did we? I’ll take your word for it. I thought they were good for the win.

Don’t you believe it! I don’t remember us being as unlucky as Ipswich were today. They could’ve had a hatful in the first 15 mins!
