what an anti climax for us blues that day was (oh to be 20 again) I have never forgiven Paul Walsh for getting a 3 game ban & missing the play offs . Thanks for the upload (despite the pain it brings back :)

Remember this game like it was yesterday, even though its now over thirty years ago. And I think its fair to say that this win more or less saved our First Division status (and at the same time maybe cost Pompey the chance of automatic promotion), what in view of the rather forgettable 1-3 defeat in the crunch relegation clash at Notts County, the following week.

Aye Pompey came up here giving it the biggun expecting a routine win to gain promotion. Went home with their tail between their legs both on and off the field.

There were around about 6,000 Pompey fans at Roker that day, as far as I'm aware. And perhaps it wasn't a surprise that there was a fair bit of friction, given what was at stake for both clubs, ie Portsmouth going for promotion, and us battling to avoid the drop (no surprise there I guess!). And I think its fair to say the 4-1 win more or less saved our skins, in view of the farcical 1-3 defeat at Notts County on the final day of the season. If we'd played like we did v Pompey a bit more often in the 1992-93 campaign, then we ourselves might having been going for promotion!

One of the biggest away following i've seen at Roker Park , other was Chelsea in the League cup Semi's .1985.

Yeah good turn out from them, they expected to roll us over. Rangers had the biggest, all of the Roker End and Clock Stand.

If only we'd played like we did against Pompey a bit more often in the 1992-93 season. Had that have been the case, we might well have been challenging for promotion, instead of having to endure yet another nerve-jangling relegation battle.

I was at both games. And perhaps the less said about the Notts County game the better, suffice to say that the win v Pompey more or less saved our First Division status.

Maybe not a surprise, given what was at stake for the two clubs, ie promotion and survival.
