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…

6-matches previous played on this game, 3 lost, 2 drawn and just the 1 win against Plymouth back in the league cup way back in 1980!

Did you take in any of the games?
