    Did any of you watch the 'Classic FA Cup Quarter Finals' on BBC1 this afternoon. It included Man Utd v Pompey from 2008

    So, while there's no new football available, here's a thread to post some of your favourite bits. It doesn't have to involve Pompey - anything will do.

    I'll kick off with one of my all time favourite games.

    Pompey v Oxford in the Second Division (that's the Championship to any-one under 30) from December 1984.

    This was on The Big Match (again - ITV's version of Match of the Day)

    I was at Old Trafford for the match you first mention with a corporate day out thanks to a large Manchester company I worked for at the time, as they had taken over the company I worked for on the Isle of Wight. They had four seats in a row, and knowing myself and a colleague were devout Pompey fans invited us up for the weekend. They weren't very nice employers to work for, and apart from a lovely company car, this was the only decent thing they gave me whilst I worked for them. I had to sit on my hands when Sulley Muntari took the penalty, to stop myself from cheering when the ball hit the back of the net ! A Pompey fan sitting about six rows in front of us leapt off his seat and punched the air and was promptly jumped on by two burly stewards who shoved him back into his seat ! Happy days :1980_boogie_down:

    Sutton Utd v Coventry City 1989.

    Coventry were in the top flight and had won the cup two seasons earlier. Sutton were in the Conference (National League)

    When they still used to play football in the snow

    Barnsley v Pompey from February 1985.

    Sound and picture not brilliant but, hey, it's 35 years old

    European football finally arrived at Fratton Park in 2008 when Vitória Guimarães came to town in the UEFA Cup.
