A thought for the Forces in Iraq & Afghanistan

As an avid Pompey Fan, I am really gutted that I won’t be able to follow my team through to the end of the season either in the league of the FA Cup.

I am in fact due to fly to Iraq this week and would like you all to think of all Pompey Supporters that will miss the run in and Semi Final at Wembley, whilst defending the world from terrorism in Iraq and Afghanistan.

I am hopefully going to be able to get to the Internet whilst I am out there to track the scores of the top team in blue, but morale is going to be really low I believe to all those fans that couldn’t witness the win over United and will not be able to witness Pompey’s visit to Wembley.

What I am writing this for is for all Pompey Fans to unite together and boost the morale out in the theatres. I have written an e-mail to PFC asking if it would be possible to send Pompey FA Cup gear out so that the soldiers and sailors can support their team whilst fighting against terror but as yet have not heard anything back.

This basically is a plea to all you Pompey fans to unite somehow and get some stuff out there for these brave people who have already missed so much out there. If in fact we do win the FA Cup then I may even write to Mr Gaydamak to see if any of the players would make a trip out there with the cup, as we will also miss the parade around Portsmouth.

Again, please help boost the morale of all PFC fans whilst they are out there. I believe that even the little things can help give these people a smile.
