That's surprising. I don't remember us losing there loads, must be a lot of draws.
Was at thatI saw at least one away game at the Baseball ground many moons ago. I’m sure we were winning 2-0 and managed to lose 3-2
Yes FA Cup 1997 Dean Sturridge last minute winner. About 7000 City and loads of dodgy tickets. Interesting walk back to the station afterI saw at least one away game at the Baseball ground many moons ago. I’m sure we were winning 2-0 and managed to lose 3-2

I distinctly remember some Robbie Savage shithousery at Pride Park when they beat us probably around 2010?
I was at pride park where Jim Smith’s Derby schooled us. Stefano Eranio and Francesco Baiano put on a masterclass
Ah yes-the highlight of Clarke’s Coventry City career!Yeah, he managed to get a 17 year old Jordan Clarke sent off. Massive bell end.
All I remember was that there wasn't much room to walk on the terraces, my knees used to keep the bloke in fronts ears warm all gameI remember us scoring at the baseball ground and some fans stopped celebrating because it felt like the stand was about collapse.
Was a proper dilapidated sithole but I love them types of grounds.
I went to the baseball ground with the old man to watch Pompey. The view for away fans was really restricted for the one end; it had a really low ceiling!I remember us scoring at the baseball ground and some fans stopped celebrating because it felt like the stand was about collapse.

Not the worst ground I went to, to watch Pompey…step forward Walsall’s old ground, google tells me it was called Fellows Park.I went to the baseball ground with the old man to watch Pompey. The view for away fans was really restricted for the one end; it had a really low ceiling!
Fortuantely all the goals were down our end. Saw the late great Alan McLoughlin scoring a header I seem to remember.
Did you manage to sample the delight that was Plough Lane? At the top of the terrace was a portacabin toilet next to a shed that sold food with fans queuing to buy food in streams of piss heading towards the pitch.Not the worst ground I went to, to watch Pompey…step forward Walsall’s old ground, google tells me it was called Fellows Park.
Dilapidated terrace with an 8ft sheer drop at the back. The toilets were a portakabin, which had a river of piss coming out the side of it, making its way towards the pitch.
David Kelly playing for Walsall, a very knackered looking Micky Quinn playing for Pompey. 1-1 I believe.
Was going to call you wrong until I realised the suffo team was that long agoNot won an derby for 21 years either

Alas I didn’t but that sounds delightful!Did you manage to sample the delight that was Plough Lane? At the top of the terrace was a portacabin toilet next to a shed that sold food with fans queuing to buy food in streams of piss heading towards the pitch.
I used to go and watch Newcastle away with my mate if we were away although the Wimbledon game was a midweek league cup game.Alas I didn’t but that sounds delightful!
I did go to watch Leyton Orient one year…and thought it was actually quite nice…excellent pies (minus the piss streams).
Mine were purely midlands based Pompey games that coincided with Cov playing away.
I remember Wolves being particularly odd, with the one massive modern stand that was miles away from the pitch, and 2 stands that were completely out of commission. I’ve watched its renovation with a little curiosity.
I saw Pompey lose 5-0 vs them, a second half Steve Bull hattrick. 0-0 at halftime.
Great day out that was!!Yes FA Cup 1997 Dean Sturridge last minute winner. About 7000 City and loads of dodgy tickets. Interesting walk back to the station after
Dodging the bricks and baseball bats yesGreat day out that was!!
Any idea of a year or certain gameI couldn’t get a ticket at the baseball ground for love or money. My brother phoned me up and asked if I was going. I told him we had sold out . 2 hours later he calls again to tell me he’d got 2 tickets, but never said they were in the home endwell we scored and all hell broke loose. We got escorted out the ground half way through the second half. Bust lip and black eye . Hahaha great days back then
West Brom seem to be a bit of a bogey team if memory serves me right? Genuinely can't remember last time we beat them? Going back to Mifsud season i think. And even then, they beat us twice (league and FA cup) that same season. I don't really have many memories of beating them. Somebody can surely find stats?Not won an derby for 21 years either

I think the good thing aswell with our run in, of all the tricky games (Sunderland, Blades, Burnley, WBA and Boro) only Blades is away. All the others are at home. The away games at Hull, Plymouth, Luton and Derby you'd like to think a team pushing for play offs "should" be picking g up at very least a point from. If not all 3.We beat them at home 2 seasons ago.
The record isn't great though, you're right on that.
Not sure to be honest, probably early 90s as the pitch was a cattle fieldAny idea of a year or certain game
That could be any year, you must of been drunk during the 90s same as me lolNot sure to be honest, probably early 90s as the pitch was a cattle field
