John Portsmouth Football Club Westwood
John Anthony Portsmouth Football Club Westwood (born 1963) is one of the most recognisable football supporters in England, when not working as an antiquarian bookseller.
He has 60 Portsmouth tattoos, the club crest shaved onto his head and 'PFC' engraved on his teeth. He can be clearly heard ringing his bell, to represent the "Pompey Chimes", almost continuously throughout Portsmouth matches. He wears a large stove pipe hat, curly blue wig, and uses a bugle as well as his handbell.
