Hi All,
Been a while since I posted on here, but something happened tonight up in the seaside town of Blackpool, which I thought maybe of interest to Pompey fans, the trust, etc.
Due to the shenanigans going on at Bloomfield Rd, an Independant Supporters Association has been set up, SISA.
The ground has been declared an 'Asset of Community Value' which, if I understand correctly, means that, the club cannot be sold willy nilly, supporters have to be consulted, and effectively, the land cannot be used for any other purpose. I do understand that Pompey, Fortress Fratton, is owned by the fans, ie a community owned club, nowadays. However during our ( yours, if I offend ) downfall, the land at Fratton Park was always a gem, the jewel in the crown, if you will.
Not sure if it has been looked at, I do seem to remember there is some kind of planning restriction surrounding Fratton Park, if it hasn't been looked at, I would like to post a link to the SISA web site http://www.sisa-bfc.co.u
