Founded on 5 April 1898 and based at Fratton Park on Portsea Island—the only professional English club ground not located on the mainland—Portsmouth FC, nicknamed “Pompey,” had a golden era post‑World War II, winning back‑to‑back First Division titles in 1949 and 1950. They lifted the FA Cup in 1939 (holding the trophy for seven years during wartime) and again in 2008, which led to European competition. After a period of severe financial trouble and successive relegations from the Premier League (2009‑10) down to League Two, the club was purchased by the Pompey Supporters Trust in 2013 and began a rebuild, culminating in promotion from League One as champions in 2024.
