Quinn will be joined by comedian Stewart Masters, with tickets available for £40 per person, £280 for a table of eight or £350 for a table of ten.

We have teamed up with the supporters’ club to offer as a prize a table for ten at the event – which will either go to one entrant if they are bidding for ten, or to ten individual entrants.

Along with a night that promises humour and unique anecdotes from Quinn’s famous football career, guests will also be fed a pie and mash dinner by the award-winning local specialists Turners Pies.

Quinn, who is now a pundit on talkSPORT, made 121 appearances for Pompey, the most he made at any club, and scored 54 goals during his spell at Fratton Park, which spanned from 1985 to 1988. The Fratton fans used to sing about him: “He’s fat, he’s round, he’s worth a million pound, Micky Quinn, Micky Quinn.”

The 53-year-old began his career at Wigan in 1979 and now, alongside his radio work, he is also a scout for the Latics.
