.............I will be wearing my ol' city top with pride! There are SO many Pompey and Southampton fans down here on the island! I'm going into Ryde tomorrow from where I live in Totland Bay, so will cover the length of the island! Can't wait to walk about! (Hopefully I won't get any red stains on my top!!!) Don't let me down Lads! I'm having evening dinner at a fishing mates house and he's a Pompey fan! Just gonna LURVE rubbing it in if we win! (I'll take a spare top though - just in case!!)

HH, have you ever been to see the Island games? Isle of Wight won it last year I was just reading.

Was curious to see what standard the games were at, if you had been.

Try not to hit them in the nose or mouth region. Less chance of getting their claret on your top then.

Pissed off with the wife. She has booked us to be down your end for the first couple of weeks of the football season. Fancy getting a game in? Willing to travel up to 6 hrs each way to a game.

Scroob: The Island Games were huge here last year. A massive build up to them. As I live on the West Wight (the prettier and quieter part!), we didn't get to see much of the games but some events were over our side eg road race cycling, shooting and a few others. Islands from all over the world took place.

Astute: Are you actually staying on the island?

Skyblue4u: Sorry 'bout that! Should have explained where I live first! :facepalm:

Yes mate. Going same place as last year :D Just below Sandown. Handy for the boat though. Staying at least 2 weeks so will have a choice of at least 1 game as we will be travelling Sat to Sat if we only stay 14 days

I take it you mean Shanklin? We'll have to meet up for a pint and chinwag at some point!

Sorry above Sandown. Near Bembridge. Will do for sure. Better to go to a game though and an even longer chinwag. Will be having withdrawl symptoms by then
