Match Summary This was a famous day in Pompey folklore - it was the day Southampton staff opened the Dell gates to find the goalposts painted blue and white, Play up Pompey daubed on the walls, the day Roy Lunniss gave England winger Terry Paine a really 'hard time'. On the pitch the team performed with great fight, Jimmy Dickinson now 38 led the defence with his usual guile and up front Albert McCann, Ron Saunders and John McClelland scored the goals.
