Portsmouth legends are uniting for a special evening to honour Alan Knight, who passed away after making 801 appearances for the club. The event, which will take place at Kings Theatre on November 12, will feature a live audience Q&A with Paul Merson, David James, Mark Hateley, and Micky Quinn, all of whom will share their memories of playing with Knight at Fratton Park. As reported by portsmouth.co.uk, the show's producers were deeply shocked by Knight's passing, saying "We were deeply shocked". With Portsmouth currently sitting 21st in the Championship, 3 points from 4 games, and 7 points behind leaders Swansea, the club's fans will be looking to this event as a welcome distraction from the on-field struggles. The club has also been dealing with a number of injuries, including those to Connor Ogilvie, Franco Umeh, Jacob Farrell, Keshi Anderson, Márk Kosznovszky, and Thomas Waddingham, who are all currently sidelined.

Portsmouth Theatres spokesperson said: "reflects not only his ability" as a player, but also his dedication to the club. The event will be a great opportunity for fans to pay their respects to a true Pompey legend, and to hear from some of the players who knew him best. With the next fixture against Cardiff at home on 2026-09-05, the club will be looking to bounce back from their recent losses, and the tribute to Alan Knight will be a welcome boost to the team's morale. The match against Cardiff will be a tough one, as they are currently sitting 19th in the table, but with the support of the fans and the inspiration of Alan Knight's legacy, the team will be looking to get back to winning ways.
