I remember saying to my mother at the start of that season I thought Pompey could win the FA Cup as she was from there and couldn't believe that they were ever in the Premier League at that point. I had one of those feelings and even she questioned if I thought they actually could. Thankfully she got her trip to Wembley a few years before she passed and it was one of her favourite days. So it has a great place in my heart too.
Thanks for this. As a Pompey fan, I was so nervous before both the semi-final and final as I knew Portsmouth would not have a chance again like this in a long time. Little did I know we would be relegated two years later although we did get to the FA cup final again in 2010.
use where very very very lucky against United in that semifinal, in saying that use bet arguably the best United prem side and stopped United winning there second treble (but that was the best Portsmouth side in a long time as well)... so well done

Thank you so much everyone for the comments :) . In regards to the background music , it was a big oversight in the middle of the video and I've taken the advice on board. My most recent videos have the audio at a much lower volume. Will continue to post Football and Formula 1 related content
In france in 2012 a third division team Quevilly beaten rennes and marseille in road to final where they lose to Lyon 1-0. Lyon invited Quevilly captain to raise the trophy with Lyon which was nice gesture.
Nice video. The Man U v Portsmouth quarter final was the most incredible game, as a Portsmouth fan I've no idea how we won it. After that we thought maybe our name is on the cup this season, and it turned out to be true.
Thats right. Freak game and result at Old Trafford, which was the only way any team would have knocked out Utd that season. We were favourites from that point. In some ways, I enjoyed the 2010 Cup run as we were the underdogs throughout and I think we would have won the final if the penalty goes in. With that said, seeing Sol lift the cup is something I'll take to the grave with me. Especially as we've been out side the top two divisions for over a decade now.
@@Bean-js9bc I was at that game lol. How Utd didn't score is beyond me. Several glorious goal line clearances before we won the penalty. Between that and Barnsley getting all the premier league giants out the way for us, it just felt fated that Pompey would go on to win it. Even if we don't get back into the top flight in my lifetime, at least we have this happy memory :)
Honestly the 2008 FA Cup season reminds me of the 2015-16 Premier League season. Did you know that the 2015-16 season might be one of, perhaps THE MOST, craziest intense unpredictable season of parity and competition in the entire history of the premier league?
It may happen... even the last 8 this year still has "lesser" lower league teams in it... something about this competition throws up surprises consistently.
As an Albion fan, this hurts. Remembering the magical fa cup run. We gave Portsmouth a game and vividly remember us being on the wrong end of some questionable referring to say the least. It was the season we really should’ve gone on to win our 6th fa cup, aswell as continuing to be the only team to left the fa cup and 2nd division in the same season. 7 year old me cried at Wembley that day, and we’ve never made it back since
I couldn't watch this final as i was physically sick from nerves. But I remember walking to the shop after the game, with tears in my eyes and hearing fans in cars beeping their horns and the pompey chimes ringing out all along Fratton Road. It really was a great day to be a fan of what is a big club fallen on hard times now. Also to think that Milan Baros and Kanu probably only got game time in the semi final and final because they couldn't play Jermain Defor because he was cup tied......
As I Pompey fan I miss the glory days, the owners were just neglectful, and our current owner has done what he said but left a good manager with Danny cowleys shit choice side. Our fans deserved and deserve better. But the fratton faithful still bring one of the best atmospheres in the land. We might not be the best team out there but I know I’m Portsmouth till I die💙
@@daveforthereds and Bradford, dumping Arsenal out on Penalties, then Villa over 2 legs, the first 4th Tier team for over 50 years to reach a cup final
I remember the H&W game against Liverpool and our Pompey campaign to win it. I was 8 years old haha! I also remember the massive bus parade going through the city with all the team waving at us, and I got to hold the FA Cup and have a picture taken with it at our junior school. I wish I knew where that picture went.
Surprised to see this is a small channel! It's great content! As a constructive opinion, I think (personally) you should keep an eye on the mixing of the voice and the music! Fantastic job, hope you keep growing c:
Great vid, but just a heads up that the music is definitely too loud at parts. Especially around the 2:55 mark, I can barely hear what you say over the backing music’
This was my first full season as a baggies fan (aged 8), we lost the fa cup semi 1-0 and the playoff final 1-0 after dominating both games. Havent been to wembley since... A fitting introduction to the albion
Very well made video, I'm surprised it has very few views and you only have 36 subscribers. Please don't give up, this was very good! Some feedback though, sometimes the background music was a bit loud when you were speaking. I'd advise lowering the volume a bit so its easier to hear you. Other than that, good video! :)
I was lucky that season. I was at the 3rd qualifying round Havant vs Fleet town. Both 3rd Round games against Swansea. And the 4th round game against Liverpool. And I was at the final. It was a great time for the area. My highlight was the away game against Swansea. 386 Havant fans,Havant were battered that game but when Baptiste scored what a moment.
It actually annoyed me that Portsmouth ended up winning it. Nothing against them necessarily but it ruined the magic. All these shocks, 3 out of the 4 Semi finalists not premier league, but in the end a sort of parity was restored and it was still the premier side that won. Bit like Carling Cup in 2013 when Swansea beat Bradford. Of course nobody would begrudge Swansea winning a trophy but it was a shame Bradford couldn't have pulled it off
But we beat Chelsea and Liverpool that year to do it. So that's that. Yours, an annoyed fan who's still cross at Swansea for meekly giving up their Premier League position and made little serious attempt to regain it.
It didn't help thats for sure, but trust me when I say the real reason Portsmouth ended up with money troubles is because the "Fit and Fair persons" test at the time was not good at all!!! I mean how else can you explain why in 4 years they could be owned by A gun smuggler hiding daddies ill gotten wealth, a man who stole his wifes money to buy the club and even then didnt have anywhere near enough actual capital, a person who may not even have existed(still called Ali El Mirage by fans to this day), a person who commited fraud in multiple european countries.....and a man who held the club to ransom over the ground who failed to disclose business dealings with the aforementioned gun runner. Thats not just bad luck that is criminal neglagence on the part of the FA.
Me and my mate are Cardiff fans, and we could only get tickets in the pompey section on the side of the pitch, gutted we lost the match pompey fans were great with us and it was a great day out.
My first ever live football game I watched was between Pompey and Plymouth in the fourth round. I was lucky enough to meet the players and Harry Redknapp in the changing room where I got my step dad’s shirt signed. Little did I know that would be the season they won the FA Cup!
I would love if over a whole month the FA CUP was played out so we can follow it better or the quarter finals could all be done at the end of season after the premier league is finalised
Well, it seems like we're trying our best to do it again: there's eight clubs left, and only four of them are in the Premier League (and, with Man United facing Fulham, we're guaranteed to lose one of them).
These days, the way that modern football is going, the FA may as well not bother with the qualifying rounds, the 6 rounds and semi finals. They may as well just look at the bank balances of the big 7 (if we include Saudi Utd) and just let the wealthiest two clubs play the final. It will save a lot of fixture pile ups, injuries and broken dreams for the majority of clubs. Alternatively, they could exclude the mega-rich clubs (who usually view it as a consolation prize) and give the other clubs a chance. It looks like the draw has conveniently set things up for an all Manchester final. Here's hoping that I am proved wrong and that Brighton or Sheffield United win the FA Cup this year.
Never forget the game at Oakwell versus Chelsea and the away trip to Anfield. What a time that was. I was only 12, never forget it. Just before Brian Howard won the game at Anfield we were denied a blatant penalty which explains the “Howard is there again”. What a moment!
as a United fan. It could of been United's second treble, but for some reason United just could score in that game, off the line clearances and all.. the semifinals... dam
Well you might see it again, someone just kidnap the entire of the city squad for the game against Sheffield United and Manchester United might even bottle it against Brighton 🤷

Please do a video on the 2012/13 League Cup. I think its interesting that for the first time since 1927, a Welsh club won an English cup.
Well, that's Swansea City winning Capital One Cup, after beating Bradford City 5-0 if i'm not mistaken.
