Portsmouth players at the FIFA World Cup

Is that section really needed? I don't see how it adds much value and I propose it should be removed. Govvy (talk) 11:48, 7 August 2016 (UTC)

I think consensus was reached a long time ago that players getting international caps is not relevant to club articles - for some clubs these kind of sections would be unmanageably large. Ilikeeatingwaffles (talk) 08:00, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
PeeJay went and removed it, heh, I wanted to do that a while back but wasn't sure. Govvy (talk) 10:26, 21 October 2016 (UTC)

Club history

I saw the work done by an editor to main page introducing a load of history to the article, however it's too much, there is already a separate article for history of the club and the stuff on the main page should be skimmed back and new edits merged into History of Portsmouth F.C. leaving the key important points on the main page.

@Govvy: If the user is not an IP, notify him in the conversation. MYS77 13:30, 19 June 2017 (UTC)
@MYS77: Erm, did you look at the history of the article User:86.185.168.143 added a load of content. Because it wasn't a registered user I posted here. Govvy (talk) 16:31, 19 June 2017 (UTC)
@Govvy: No, I didn't. That's why I asked. But anyways, later I can take a look and trim the club's history a little bit. MYS77 16:32, 19 June 2017 (UTC)

This summer an IP added masses of unsourced anorak cruft, swelling the article to the size expected for one on a country or president. There are so many issues here it's impossible to know where to begin Harambe Walks (talk) 03:20, 11 September 2017 (UTC)

The Pompey Chimes

I really don't see why this is needed on the article, seems very trivial, anyone against it's removal? Govvy (talk) 16:30, 6 May 2018 (UTC)

It seems relevant to the history of the club, and is sourced. Tony Holkham (Talk) 19:28, 6 May 2018 (UTC)

Nickname Pompey

Could you add explaination on the origin of that nickname? Everton 13:15, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)

  • Pompey was originally a sailors' nickname for the city of Portsmouth, believed to be of 19th century origin. It may derive from a captured French ship, Le Pompée, which often docked in Portsmouth with British sailors stationed on it: the sailors from Le Pompée were referred to as 'Pompey Boys', which subsequently became a generic name for sailors based in Portsmouth - and so by back-formation Portsmouth became Pompey. Another well-known story, possibly apocryphal, is that while a female Salvation Army officer was lecturing a group of sailors and referred to the defeat of the Roman general Pompey, a captain sitting half asleep (possibly under the influence of drink) at the back called out 'Poor old Pompey' (although why that would lead to the name being bestowed on the port is unclear). Others say it comes from French people mocking British sailors for, in their view, looking like firemen ('pompiers') in their uniforms. I'm inclined to go for Le Pompée. Jess Cully 9 July 2005 01:11 (UTC)
  • There's also the story that a group of Portsmouth based sailors climbed Pompey's pillar, near Alexandria, and became known as the "Pompey Boys", and the name transferred back to the town. For some reason, this one seems the most plausible to me. Zooterkin 11 January 2005 09:33 (UTC)
  • Ships entering Portsmouth harbour make an entry in the ship's log Po'm. P. as a reference to Portsmouth Point. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.240.244.137 (talk) 11 December 2006 21:10 (UTC)

Kits

  • Now they are up to date for this season. I thought they warrented the extra detail as the home shirt does have more white than usual. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thom32 (talkcontribs) 17 October 2006 21:08 (UTC)

Pompey Player of the Year (1968-2007)

this list cant be right, i dont remeber the season that well but from buxton being let go after the season he won player of the year seems a bit of a shock!! (Unsigned comment by AngelLaHash (talk · contribs))

there's 7 or so different awarding bodies. this year David James won all of them, so did Gary O'Neil in 2005/06.

In 2001/02 some went to Buxton, whilst others went to Crouch and Prosi. Same as in 2002/03 (Toddy, Merse and Linvoy), 2003/04 (De Zeeuw and Linvoy) and 2004/05 (De Zeeuw and Stefanovic).
