Portsmouth FA Cup Betting

The Portsmouth FA Cup betting specials revolve around goalkeeper David James and come from online bookie Stan James. As Portsmouth have only scored six goals en route to Wembley and penalties have played a major role in their success. Many Plymouth supporters will tell you they were denied a cast iron penalty in the 4th round when the ball appeared to strike the arm of Sylvan Distin, Simon Whalley's penalty was brilliantly saved by David James before a late own goal gave Pompey vistory at Preston in Round 5 and who can forget Distin's challenge on Ronaldo at Old Trafford before Sulley Muntari's late winner from the spot against keeper Rio Ferdinand at Man United in Round 6?

Stan James have come up with a number of specials revolving around veteran keeper David James ahead of tomorrow's FA Cup final between Portsmouth and Cardiff City. Head of PR Charlie McCann explains "David James has played in two previous FA Cup Finals and on both occasions with Liverpool in 1996 and Aston Villa in 2000 his club has lost without scoring a goal. That said James has also won a penalty shoot out at Wembley in the Cup semi-final of 2000 when Villa beat Bolton on penalties. The Villa reserve keeper on that occasion was none other than Peter Enkleman the Cardiff goalkeeper tomorrow and also prone to the odd howler in his time."
