I've been going since the late 60's - just after the 1st promotion to Division 1. In my first game we beat WBA 4-0 with the scorers being Chivers(2), Davies and Paine. My second game was the 1-5 defeat to Leicester when Peter Shilton scored against us. I suppose those 2 games just about sums up what it's been like supporting Saints over the years.

I agree. I think the captain needs to be in the thick of it, geeing the players up, giving them a bollocking when they mis-hit passes and cooling things down with the ref if someone's in danger of a yellow/red card. Nothing against KD who's had a great season but I think someone else should be captain - not sure who though.

From their website it looks like Újpest also played Wolves on Tuesday. I imagine they are just playing a few friendlies during their mid-season break before their league resumes. I don't think we should read too much into this.

It's all part of Rupert's plan to get promotion to the Premiership without all that tedious business of having to win games: - Get all of our decent players to Stoke directly or indirectly. - Asset-strip the current club until it folds. - Use the money accumulated to buy up Stoke. - Announce that Stoke City are being renamed as Southampton FC and all future games will be played at St Mary's Genius!

Everton, extra 2 points. (still have nightmares)
