  • Very close to what will eventually become home to a stadium befitting the finest football team in the South of England - POMPEY!!
  • What Scott said is right...although whether Portsmouth FC are the best in south England is a matter of opinion.
  • I see those other 2 comments 8 years after they were posted, the stadium never went ahead.
