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…

18/9/1974: Sol Campbell
18/9/1989: James Dunne

From the ed: Been a few days but today has seen us back to winning more than we had lost!

Quite a few for me today, the last home game Swindon, Sheffield United (I think) in 2010, that fabulous first European game in 2008 and the trip to Tranmere in 1999.

Can you claim to have been in attendance for any of these games, if so share your thoughts below on any stories you have…
