ATTENDANCE 26,306

Pompey were being roared on by a vociferous crowd, the ground swirled with a snowstorm of ripped up paper once more to resemble a footballing maelstrom, and both teams clashed for a third time in 3 weeks, a big man was needed for the occasion, and a big man was to step forward. Just over 300 minutes was broken by a booming header by big Noel Blake, 
Spurs came at Pompey now, but Tommy Christensen was having his best game in a Pompey shirt, O’Callaghan and Hilaire were running hard on the wings helping out an under pressure midfield, and Alan Knight stood firm when the defence was breached.
To anyone at that game, one defining moment stands out, time was ticking by, and Alan Knight received the ball to his feet, Chris Waddle was closing in fast, out of his area, what does Alan do? Simple, he drops a shoulder, shimmies round Waddle and clears upfield, the day was Pompey’s and Mighty Spurs were defeated in a true David/Goliath contest.

VERY GOOD CONDITION
