Former Portsmouth boss Harry Redknapp re-opens AFC Portchester’s OnSite Group Stadium after £1.2m redevelopment

Former Portsmouth manager Harry Redknapp officially reopened AFC Portchester's OnSite Group Stadium on Saturday following a £1.2m redevelopment. Redknapp cut the ribbon before kick-off, marking the club's return home after six months away. The project delivered a new state-of-the-art 3G pitch alongside updated facilities, made possible through collaborative funding involving the club and football funding bodies.

On the pitch, Portchester celebrated the reopening with a 2-0 victory against Bedfont Sports in the Isthmian League South Central Division. After Ryan Pennery had a penalty saved, Archie Willcox opened the scoring in the 83rd minute, before Pennery secured the win with an 86th-minute goal.
