Another feature, again courtesy of our sister site PompeyRama, sees us look at those Pompey personalities – past or present – who have a birthday on this day…
10/8/1969: Andy Cook
10/8/1933: William Albury
10/8/1921: Bill Thompson
From the ed…
The three birthdays today, most are names known to me but Albury and Thompson obviously before my time. Cook, I cannot really remember much about – not sure if that’s a good or bad thing?
Only 4-matches previous played on this game, 3 drawn and 1 win against Forest back in 2002 – so we’ve never lost on this day!
It was the Forest game in 2002 that we missed a ‘hatful of chances’ that I was referring too previously, I remember now and remember talking about this as we walked away from Fratton after this 2-0 win.
My only game on this day, remember watching Stanley on sky sport so I’ve got an unbeaten record myself obviously…
Did you take in any of the games?
