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…

5/2/1986: Manuel Fernandes
5/2/1976: John Aloisi
5/2/1960: Micky Hazard
5/2/1927: Dan Ekner
5/2/1915: Eric Jones

From the ed…

A good few birthdays, five of them with Jones and Ekner well before my tine, Hazard is more familiar to me for his post-Pompey days with Fernandes such an odd one isn’t he with how his Blues career worked out! Always a fan of Aloisi’s so he gets the image today.

14-matches previously with it a very good day, 8 wins, 4 defeats with 2 draws.

Only the most recent game at home, the 1-1 draw with Derby for me.

Have you taken in any of the games and have any memories?
