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.

29/9/1897: Reginald Davies
29/9/1898: John Gilfillan
29/9/1955: Paul Cahill
29/9/1969: Andy Petterson
29/9/1980: Patrick Agyemang
29/9/1983: Paul Connolly

From the Ed



Happy birthday to Reginald Davies, John Gilfillan, Andy Petterson, Paul Cahill, Patrick Agyemang, Paul Connolly – the Pompey player from the Blues’ past born on this day.

Davis, Gilfillan and Cahill were all before my time and not known to me to be honest – I would say the majority would be the same aside from Cahill.

Agyemang and Connolly both enjoyed a successful enough pairing for a while and I liked them as I did Petterson, who was not a bad goalkeeper really, we’ve certainly had worse.

Now onto the games previously played.

Played – 18
Won – 8
Drawn – 3
Lost – 7

The last four-games for me today – all at Fratton Park were we have seen wins and two defeats – these defeats against Exeter in 2015 and Birmingham in 1998. 2012 saw a win against Scunthorpe and the remarkable 7-4 win over Reading in 2007.

What are your memories of Davies, Gilfillan, Petterson, Cahill, Agyemang and/or Connolly 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?
