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.
Due to the fact it is a birthday free day we move straight onto the games previously played.
Played – 16
Won – 2
Drawn – 6
Lost – 8
Wow, what a poor day as 50% of them have been lost with wins very much in the minority.
I can recall a fair few games from recent history, but the victories were long before my time.
However, I have attended one, the draw with Blackburn at Fratton Park in 2010 when both clubs were in the Premier League – could this season still be one where we both continued our climb and end up going back up to the Championship?
Have you taken in any of the games previously played today – if so what are the memories from them?
