@PompeyHistory My Grandfather actually was a boilermaker in the Dockyard ,spent his whole working life there,apart from during WW1 when he was a sapper in the Royal Engineers,he was still calling the Milton End the Boilermakers until the day he passed away in the early 80’s in his 90’s

@PompeyHistory It wasn't just popular with boilermakers. It was where my grandad who was in the RM always stood and in the 30s and 40s it was supposedly where the atmosphere came from. He refused to take his kids there, so they all went in the FE instead

Such an interesting event. Thanks to @The_SimonInglis for his detailed knowledge of Archie and @PompeyHistory for organising. Looking forward to the history of Fratton Park with @MASaunders75
Had a great day yesterday with #PompeyHistory (PHS) showing #The_SimonInglis around Fratton Park followed by Simon’s superb talk on the life and career of Archibald Leitch. I will be doing my own PHS talk on the history of Fratton Park in a few months. #Pompey

Insightful talk by Simon Inglis (@The_SimonInglis) this evening at Fratton Park about Archibald Leitch, his life and influence on UK football grounds. Thanks to @PompeyHistory for organising a great evening. Only on the walk back home I realised that I own one of his books!
