    Not sure it has has it? They've been a lower league club for most of the last 70years and more regularly gone between 2nd and 3rd division than they have between 1st and 2nd.

    Lower championship is probably their natural level

    But they haven't been in the championship for over a decade.

    I think most our lot wouldn't argue that championship feels about our natural level. We're certainly not a big fish anymore in this division.

    Quite enjoyed the lower leagues. Certainly more fun playing at 3pm on a Saturday, with realistic ticket pricing and terracing, winning more than you lose, and not having primadona millionaires who probably couldn't point to your town on a map, that would **** off at the slightest sniff of a better offer elsewhere. There might have been some bleak spells, but it wasn't the catastrophe i'd imagine it would've been when we first got relegated. Some great days out and good clubs.

    That's because other clubs grew when they didn't, they're effectively a small provincial team and as the world of football has changed they settled at a new natural level.

    You lot are so weirdly obsessed you watch our games, i'd rather ignore you c*nts and not add to the viewing figures so you don't get chosen again.

    I see the scab c*nts are doing what they do best and ignoring the possibility of solidarity again, vile place full of scabs and racists

    Why all the Portsmouth hate ? It's a great city. Great historic club . Great fanbase who've always been really friendly with us.

    Back to visiting the worst away stand in the division. How it passes a safety inspection is an ongoing mystery.

    You'll be pleased to know that it has had a lot of work carried out since you last visited. Even profiled terracing, even steps, rail seating, a lift with an away disabled section, larger concourse, new toilets and you can even get a beer! It's like it's just been upgraded to meet the all seater requirements from the 1990's.

    We don't have a council that builds our stadiums for us.

    Bear in mind that's from a Hull City fan . I mean lol .... How do you think you'll do next season ? Sheff Weds and Plymouth have struggled this season and as someone else said Ipswich are a real anomaly. We will struggle I'm sure. I'd be amazed if we're anywhere near top 6. Consolidation is the word for us.
