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.
24/3/1976: Aliou Cisse
Happy birthday to Aliou Cisse – the Pompey player from the Blues’ past born on this day.
Cisse wouldn’t be remembered as a great player at Pompey but he had a decent footballing career and his spell with the Blues wasn’t bad to be fair.
Now onto the games previously played.
Played – 13
Won – 1
Drawn – 5
Lost – 7
What a miserable day as only one game has ever been won – fortunately we aren’t playing until the Sunday this year.
I can recall a fair few but can claim only one; this wasn’t exactly one to recall either as Chelsea left Fratton Park with a thumping win back in 2010.
What are your memories Cisse from his Pompey days? Also have you taken in any of the games previously played today – if so what are the memories from them too?
