NickG Posted 10 February, 2010 Share Posted 10 February, 2010 Great to see them both standing for the last 5 minutes of the game, (although where were the stewards?!). Cortesse applauding for 5 minutes, watching team and looking around at the fans singing we're going to Wembley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickG Posted 10 February, 2010 Author Share Posted 10 February, 2010 no, but was good to see - Cortesse was standing looking around the crowd, smiling and applauding for about 5 or more minutes. They remained there long after the final whistle, applauding the team off. Think it did mean something to him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingsland Red Posted 10 February, 2010 Share Posted 10 February, 2010 I trust ML but NC is a bit of a rottweiler and needs to appreciate that cup finals are rare in our history; Saints fans are very loyal without major expectations or a need for a conveyor belt of success; and Saints have a history as a family club offering stability ( before you know who got involved) for their managers. I'm hearing he may be getting a little impatient with league results. We're averaging 2 points per game for goodness sake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you on the Cup games, but he is surely right to want better in the league. We really don't want to settle for second best any longer.

John B Posted 10 February, 2010 Share Posted 10 February, 2010 If he didn't know how important cup games can be, he certainly is now I think with the -10 and the poor start to the league season getting to the JPT final shows that the club is going forward and success in the Cups has been very enjoyable. League results maybe what matters to NC/ML but nights to remember like last night is what matters to myself and other fans I would have thought. It was a pleasure to see loads of young kids very excited by the result and they will remember no doubt the last night in years to come like I remembered the night in 1979 when Terry curran's goal at the Archers Road End against Leeds also got us to Wembley. We will get to CCC soon but let us enjoy the Cup Win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickG Posted 10 February, 2010 Author Share Posted 10 February, 2010 I have written to the club to ask why these two, overenthusiastic fans were allowed to stand, unchallenged for more than the last 5 minutes of the game, clapping and encouraging the players and crowd. This is not the sort of behaviour we should accept, particularly in an irrelevant mickey mouse cup that meant nothing to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickey Mouse cup??? I guarantee Cortesse and Markus can't wait! sorry to quote myself - but this is why this trophy now means so much to the club. People are talking about saints. Kids are excited - that lad beaming to people he didn't know, my kids saying others talking about it at school. Of course promotion is more important in the long term resurrection of the club, but it was never an "either or" choice. However this sudden input of positivity and enthusiasm for fans and players alike can only be good for getting us back where we belong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously there is so much bull **** in football - just look down the road - I tend to treat everyone as guilty to proven innocent. That picture is good evidence. Gaydamak was going to take Portsmouth to the 'next level', Mikey Wilde was going to invest 'new money' in the club. Look at the fellas at Liverpool, Crystal Palace, QPR even. We've every reason to be cautious and a bit cynical. There are lot's of examples of football club chairmen or owners in England who have made big plans and left the clubs in trouble. Fortunately for us, so far we seem to have got supremely lucky with Markus (and Cortese). So far they've hardly put a foot wrong and that picture gives me the hope that the next few years will be pretty enjoyable for us all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It certainly could be a lot worse Jam and if the Wembley experience helps cement a long lasting affection for the Saints then great. I still think AP needs to buck his ideas up however and NC is very aware that tactically things aren't right at present..... Wembley visit or not.
