It's May 2008, and the Portsmouth Football Club players are making their way up Wembley Stadium's steps to lift the FA Cup trophy. But what was one of Portsmouth's proudest moments was quickly overshadowed and led to the club's downfall. In three years, how does a club go from winning the FA Cup and playing in Europe to relegation to League Two?
Portsmouth’s squad once had the likes of Jermain Defoe, David James, Peter Crouch, Lassana Diarra, Sulley Muntari, Sol Campbell and Glen Johnson.

In the end, after bad ownerships, it was the fans who saved the club by purchasing it in 2013. In this video, we look at what led to the downfall of Portsmouth Football Club.
