When Pompey won their F.A Cup semi-final in early April, on the verge of grabbing 5th place in the Premiership for a European spot and facing THE MIGHTY MIGHTY CARDIFF CITY in the F.A Cup Final, life could not have been sweeter.
It's a different story now.
Somehow they lost their last game of the season 1-0 at home to doomed Fulham allowing the Londoners the greatest of escpaes from relegation and consigning Birmingham and Reading - both of whom won today - to the Championship to play City next season.
For Pompey, players injured, others out of form, 1 point out of 15, no goal for almost 6 hours and sections of their own support booing them if far from ideal ahead of the Wembley date with destiny.
Maybe it'll mean nothing come the big day but you do wonder if Pompey will have fagile confidence if City start and play well, heaven forbid if we score first.
It's certainly not mission impossible and Portsmouth suddenly look a lot more vulnerable than they did.
