12RofC No.10: Portsmouth Win the FA Cup in 2008
After the depression of yesterday, here's something positive to bounce back with and yes this is Luke writing these synopses. Portsmouth triumphed gloriously in the FA Cup in 2007/08, laying to waste everyone in their path including a pathetic iteration of a Manchester United team on their own patch.
Just when we all thought the summer of 2008 would be nothing to shout about given England's capitulation in trying to qualify for the European Championships, those beautiful boys in blue came through and warmed all of our hearts in fine fashion by lifting that FA Cup trophy high above everyone's heads on a balmy day in May at the Home of Football. The less said about what happened after that, the better.
