Portsmouth Soccer
Portsmouth soccer Club is an English club based in the south coast city of Portsmouth. They are often nicknamed Pompey. They currently play in the English Premier League. The club was founded on 5 April 1898. The club joined the Southern League in 1899 and their first league match was played at Chatham Town on 2 September 1899 which resulted in a 1-0 victory, followed three days later by the first match at Fratton Park, a friendly against local rivals Southampton, which was won 2–0. Portsmouth's debut season in the First Division was a struggle. The next season they continued to struggle, losing 10-0 to Leicester City, a club record defeat. However, despite their poor league form, Portsmouth reached the FA Cup final for the first time, which they lost to Bolton Wanderers.
Porstmouth have won the First Division twice, in 1949 and 1950. They have appeared in four FA cup finals and won the FA cup in 1939. Because League soccer was suspended due to World War II, Pompey hold the distinction of holding the FA Cup for the longest uninterrupted period as the trophy wasn't contested again until 1945-46 season. Portsmouth are also the current cup holders, winning it in 2008 against Cardif City.
Portsmouth have always used their home ground, Fratton Park which currently holds 20,688 people. The official badge contains a gold star and crescent on a blue shield, Portsmouth's adoption of the star and crescent is said to have come from when King Richard I, gave the city "a crescent of gold on a shade of azure, with a blazing star of eight points" which he had taken after capturing Cyprus. Portsmouth have worn their current colours of Blue jerseys since 1911. Before that, Portsmouth used salmon pink and then white home colours. Their current away colours are mostly white and all uniforms are currently manufactured by Canturbury.
