| Match Summary | With Pompey top of Division Three South and desperate to gain promotion they welcome back top scorer Billy Haines in place of Alf Strange who has deputised well for the local derby with Bournemouth and Boscombe Athletic as they were known until 1971. It was their first visit to Fratton and the next would be 1961! Jimmy Martin opens the scoring with a twenty yard free kick and after the interval Haines nets from a Beedie centre and Watson breaks away to score the third as B&B continue to struggle on their debut league season. |
