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…

7/2/1987: Joe Devera

From the ed…

The birthday of Devera only today, not exactly what you could call a ‘fans favourite’ as such was he but ‘Big Joe’ became ‘ok-ish’ in the end so he gets the image.

Before the game today we’ve previously had 14-matches with us losing 7, winning 5 and drawing 2.

I’ll be at the game against Orient today, before this only the one for me back in 1999 at Fratton with the draw against Tranmere.

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