Re: Portsmouth tickets

My first game post-rebrand was away at Fulham in August 2016. I sat in the so-called neutral section. It was good fun, an entertaining 2-2 draw.

My first home game post-rebrand was Burton in January 2017, a 1-0 win with a late Rhys Healey goal. I was a guest of the club following the death of a close friend (the late, great Dr Pop).

Been to plenty of home games since then, and a handful of aways, but I’ve recently bought a season ticket for the first time in a decade.

All this bearing in mind that you said categorically in about 2013 that you were never going again and on numerous occasions in the intervening period have denied that you were attending games. Very interesting. Perhaps the club wouldn't have been quite so quick to invite you to a game as a guest, had they known the amount of vitriol you had been continually spouting about Messrs Tan, Dalman and Choo. No doubt you kept your feelings very quiet whilst you enjoyed their food, drink and hospitality (not to mention the free match ticket) and did a suitable amount of ‘brown nosing’, so as not to break your cover. Tad hypocritical don't you think, from a bloke who goes around accusing other people of lying or making things up on a regular basis on this forum.

Mate, seriously, why so much anger? It's negative energy man. Whatever is making you feel this sh*t I really hope it gets better mate because it sure isn't about the stuff you're directing your anger towards. Peace brother.

It's difficult to know where to start in response to this twaddle, so I'll take it in the order it was written.....

I never said that I wouldn't attend matches again. On the contrary, I actually said I may return to support the club at some point in the future, but I stated I wouldn't support the side while it was wearing its rebranded red home kit, and I didn't. Not once. As mentioned above, my first game post-rebrand was away at Fulham in August 2016, some seven months after Vincent Tan had bitten the bullet and returned the team to its rightful colours.

Back in 2012, I did say I wouldn't put another penny into the club while Vincent Tan was the owner and, apart from buying a few rounds at the CCS from time to time, that's a vow I maintained for a decade. However, I took the decision to buy a season ticket for the 2022/23 campaign back in March, oddly enough following the thrill-a-minute 0-0 draw with Preston at the CCS. I greatly enjoy the days out with my mates and I'm pretty certain that attending matches more regularly will aid both my mental health and general wellbeing, so it felt like the right thing to do. 2021 was a tough year for me on a personal level and the early part of 2022 wasn't great either, but things have improved in recent months and I'm very much looking forward to spending lots more time with my football friends during the coming season.

If you are so minded, you can read exactly what I wrote about the rebrand here:

http://thelonegunmanblog.blogspot.com/2012/08/its-more-than-just-colour_1920.html

At no stage have I ever denied that I was attending matches following the game at Fulham in August 2016. That's simply a figment of your imagination. Indeed, I've engaged in many conversations on this board regarding the matches I've attended and have talked to numerous message board users at those games. It's never been any sort of a secret that I've been going to matches when offered spare tickets by my friends.

Turning to the club's invitation to attend the Burton game in January 2017 (my first home game post-rebrand), you can rest assured the people at the CCS who issued that invitation knew exactly who I was. I've known them for many years. They also asked me to write a tribute to my late friend for the match programme and asked me to supply some photos of him that were displayed on the big screens. My tribute to him was read out on the pitch at half-time. There was no free food or drink involved, and no opportunity to engage in 'brown-nosing' with Messrs Tan or Dalman either. As usual, they weren't at the game.

As for Ken Choo, I've never said anything vitriolic about him. I've met Ken twice, briefly on both occasions, and he seems nice enough. A couple of friends who have regular dealings with him say good things about the man and I've no reason to question those opinions. The fact is that Ken Choo is merely an employee of Vincent Tan's, although it should be said that he appears to have done some good things at the club during his time here and he played a key role in reversing Tan's ridiculous rebrand, so he's alright with me.

Re: Portsmouth tickets

Welcome back TLG

Thanks Chris.

While I don't feel anywhere near the same about the club as I did prior to 2012, I'm really looking forward to this season. It feels like anything could happen. I know we can say that about most seasons, especially at Championship level, but for obvious reasons this one seems much more unpredictable than usual.
