In total, 733 made the 474-mile round-trip and had to watch on amid bitterly-cold weather in the Coppice Terrace.

But the supporters remained upbeat and it didn’t go unnoticed.

Accy chairman Andy Holt would have revelled in every minute as his club run riot.

However, he was also impressed how much noise the Fratton faithful made.

Holt wrote on Twitter: ‘I’m saying @Pompey fans are magic. Sang to the end. Not as good as @ASFCofficial fans but great support!’
