I am so annoyed right now, the Portsmouth match is cancelled again! Blackburn and Portsmouth both previously established Premier League teams, neither can get their pitch match ready. All of us in the championship are only one golden season from being promoted to the Premier League with their rigorous checks and standards! Bearing in mind the lengths that we (and indeed more so Luton!) had to go through to get to Premier League standard stadiums, surely there's got to be regulations put in place to prevent this? League one or league two is understandable but with millions being spent on players don't tell me the money isn't there!
Grrrr!!! |  |

We only spent a lot of money on our pitch in 2023. If our ownership hadn't changed it wouldn't have happened. Unfortunately not every club has the good fortune to come into megadollars that we had. |  |
| Never forget that for ITFC the game changed in April 2021. |

Aren't they owned by an investment group headed by the former Disney CEO? |  |

Apparently! Feel bad for anyone that had taken leave and spent money (twice!). I do wonder if they went over cautious to not risk a late inspection after last time.
I don't want to ever have two games in hand could be 10 points behind or something if that ends up being the case. | |

You do realise your pitch was the same standard if not worse up until 3 years ago when you upgraded it for prem standards?
Fratton is a semi synthetic pitch that generally holds up really well. Very Rarely lose any games on it. It is also scheduled for a revamp including new drainage and under soil heating at the end of this season or next. | | | |

You're right. Our pitch was at a League 1 standard. | | | |

But we did not constantly get games postponed on it. |  | | |

Exactly, but I couldn't help wanting to point out to the mysterious poster that Pompey must be a League 1 club if our pitch was as good then as there's is now. | | | |

Why wasn't a cover put on it given the forecast? Really quite pathetic for a professional club. | |
