Ahead of this year's Pompey Hall of Fame dinner on Friday 27th March, we chronologically feature each inductee.

He was part of the Pompey side who took eventual double winners Arsenal to an FA Cup replay in 1970/71, scoring a second half equaliser at Highbury in what ultimately proved to be an unfortunate 3-2 defeat.
