    I went to Norms funeral and have just watched the clubs video. That was really moving. A lovely service and we shall always remember you Norm.

    Period of applause for Norman Barker
    There will be a period of applause ahead of kick-off in loving memory of Norman 'Headphones Norm' Barker, who sadly passed away after falling ill in his seat in the Covered End Lower during the original fixture between the two sides. The applause will also serve as a sense of gratitude to both sets of supporters for the incredible amount of money raised in Norm's memory.

    What a special send-off for Norm.

    Well done to the Comms team and Club for a beautiful tribute <3
  • I hope we win for him tonight.

    Seems the players couldn't care less.

    I’m not so sure, Norm was a proper Charlton fan, so would most likely have expected a big dip, when things were starting to look positive.

    Well done and thank you to the Pompey fans last night. Not only did they applaud, but they gave a good round of "One Norman Barker" too.

    Also well done BDL, if I had your job I'd never hold it together in moments like that.

    The Portsmouth fans were class during the tribute, as they also were throughout the match supporting their team.

    Harsh and pretty unnecessary.

    They were off the pace and second to every ball. Jones said Pompey wanted it more. Harsh? Absolutely not.
