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.

24/9/1957: Steve Foster
24/9/1974: Mathias Svensson
24/9/1980: Petri Pasanen

From the Ed



Happy birthday to Steve Foster, Mathias Svensson and Petri Pasanen – the Pompey players from the Blues’ past born on this day.

Foster had a cracking career but he was before my time so I didn’t see him play for Pompey – I did others though later in his career.

As for Svensson, I would say he is someone we probably had the best of from his time in the English game?

Meanwhile, Pasanen wasn’t one I saw that much of in all honesty but thought could have been a decent footballer for the Blues.

Now onto the games previously played, before the one later today.

Played – 21
Won – 10
Drawn – 5
Lost – 6

I was at Fratton Park for the thrashing of Barnet in 2016 and can claim another two before that, which were also won so I personally have a 100% record. These other games were against Blackpool in 2011 and another goal fest against Leicester in 2010.

What are your memories of Foster, Svensson and/or Pasanen from their Pompey days? Also have you taken in any of the games previously played today – if so what are the memories from them too?

PLAY UP POMPEY
