Just wondering how a club that has a brilliant junior program , local talent and fantastic football director + all their conections with the Port Magpies has only ever won 1 DIV1 Premiership.
With the Great Man Roger at the helm they may have another crack, but boy have they underachieved.

Port Districts have certainly only been a average side at the best. But with Roger coaching this year, they may play finals.

Port District (not Districts) has only existed as a club since 1979 when the two teams that shared Largs Reserve, Exeter and Semaphore Central amalgamated.
So since Exeter and Semaphore Central were some of the oldest, most successful clubs in the Amateur League, I think you should have a look at the records and do your sums again or ask someone who is in the know.
My count is Semaphore Central 12 and Exeter 5.
So therefore that is 18 Premeirships in A1 since 1911 and not 1 (one) as you have previously stated on other posts.

No, just checking whether T S knew the history of the club that he/she has been bagging?
Hey, they should have won more A1 flags but thats life.
You can be lucky sometimes too!!

I think you're right about Kilburn becoming just a memory TH it looks like they're fading away towards Div 3.

I think you will find that Kilburn are not even mentioned in this forum. This forum is about a club that has under achieved to the max, and by the looks of it we all agree.
You seem to have a very good football brain Hafey, so maybe you should start using it. Maybe when kilburn fold, they can sell you some of the equipment from their $50,000 gym.

23 posts old and already your like a struggling journo that goes out on a limb just to get paid!! I suppose you as an individual has achieved more in life than a great club like Port districts. So who are you involved with TURKEY SLAPPER, and what a great name that is for you but maybe you should drop the Turkey and just keep Slapper!!!

You sound like a bloke that would consider himself bigger than a team, what club are you involved with?
