Post subject: Pompey reserves query. |
|
|
As well as collecting certain key seasons and games, I am also aiming to get a programme for every match I have been to. I went to a few reserve games in the seventies but these do not stick in the memory like first team games.
I am looking for the date(as well as the team sheet) of Pompey v Peterborough, mid-week league cup final. All I remember is that the score was 4-1 and I bought a pint legally, so must have been after 1975.
Also went to a reserve game in which a young Chris Kamara had a trial and played in borrowed boots. I think this was against Brighton in 1975/76. frustrating thing is I had team sheets at the time but gave them away.
While researching this, I came across a notice in a 1978/79 programme, saying that on receipt of a S.A.E., a gentleman by the name of Chris Gibbs, could supply your Pompey wants. So belatedly, this one for you Chris. |

Hi farmersboy
Chris Gibbs is on this forum, and is certainly around, as I went with him to the London Programme Fair last week.
Anyway, I may be able to answer your queries.
Pompey v Peterborough Midweek League Cup Final.
This was played over 2 legs, in May 1974. Pompey won the first leg at Peterborough 5-1 on 14/5/74 and the second leg at Fratton Park 4-1 on 16/5/74. Scorers in the home leg were Fred Smith, Richard Reynolds 2, and Gordon Bartlett.
With regard to Chris Kamara, I don't have all of the line-ups, but I do have some of the team sheets from this time. The first mention of his name on a team sheet that I can see is on 16/10/1974 against Southend Utd which Pompey won 3-1. Kamara is listed at number 5.
I don't have original team sheets for either of these games, but I do have copies, so if you want a copy of either or both then no problem.
Best of luck in finding originals!

Just remembered watching Pompey play Watford in 1973/74. It was an afternoon match. Had the day off school for a royal wedding. Again a team sheet or even a copy would be great. |

Hi farmers boy (why can't people put their names on this site?). 1978 was a long time ago and I may have been able to help you, but not now. The two other non named people who have replied will have been more help than I can at this time as I know both will have more time on their hands than me, the best I could do would be a photo copy as well.

Hi Farmersboy
Pompey played Watford on 29/8/1973 in the Midweek League at Fratton Park and won 2-0.
The Royal Wedding (Princess Anne & Mark Phillips) was on 14/11/1973, according to Wikipedia. I cannot see that the Reserves played on this day.
However, if you want a scan of the two teamsheets above, and this Watford one, then PM me with your email, and I will send them to you.
Paul. |
