> The problem with the all red shirt is that the history is lacking as the previous all red in 85 was in itself a one-off total redesign for the club anniversary Was the red shirt for 85-86 really a centenary design? I know it had the special badge. But I don't recall ever hearing that the design itself was created to mark the anniversary. I always thought that it was just an example of poor unthinking design by Patrick rather than a special effort. When Lawrie went to Sunderland they switched to Patrick and I can't help but think that the design they got - a twist on the 1980 Keegan design with stripes instead of the plain white panel - had been created for us, even down to the white socks that Sunderland had never worn before. Also, short / sock colours are secondary to the shirt, though when the shirt is 'wrong', them being right minimises the impact.

Frank Worthington Joe Jordan came to late in their careers some good performances but not enough A little unfair to Jordan. For a player in his twilight years 17 goals from 61 games isn't such a bad return on £150,000. And he never was a prolific scorer even in his youth. What he added was real determination and fight in leading the line. I sometimes wonder if Jordan had arrived a season earlier, instead of Worthington, that we might actually have won the league.

The thing about Delgado is that there was clearly a player there. When he played he frightened United and Arsenal to death. In fairness to him he didn't arrive at Saints under the best circumstances, being apparently signed by Rupert and I don't think WGS was inclined to give him the nurturing that was needed. With our luck, if we hadn't signed him when we had the chance he would have gone somewhere like Derby, scored 20 goals and then we would have been moaning about missing out - just like we did with Wanchope.

Charlie George really. Because we went to so much trouble to get him from Derby over a long drawn transfer saga when the press wanted him to go to West Brom - I'll never forget the headline from the lovely John Sadler in the Sun 'George a Saint - its like Nureyev in panto'. It was months before he played as he arrived with an injury. That isn't to say he wasn't fantastically talented. He produced some wonderful moments including destroying Liverpool in 79. But there just weren't enough of them. It was really disappointing that he went out on loan to Forest as his career with us ebbed away. He could have been one of our greats.

Couldn't get online renewal to show season tickets for both sons. Helpline couldn't fix it either. But customer services were very helpful and processed the renewals over the phone without even the online costs.

Since three out of the four times in our history we have been relegated we have gone down with Norwich we need them to stay up.

Bet of the year. Redknapp to be Cardiff manager by Christmas

Great shame that it wasn't caught on film. It was only the next season they started to film every game. Nowadays even L2 goals are preserved for ever.

Ronnie Ekelund 1994-95 to make it 3-1 against Coventry at Highfield Road. One touch football at its very best.

When I started going in 68/69 the most expensive seat in the Dell was 19/6 (just under a pound) and the programme was a shilling (5 p). The best seats available for the FA Cup final in 76 were £10.

I was there on Bank Holiday August Monday 1970. It was my first ever away game as well. We went to the stadium in the morning to get tickets and I get Geoof Hurst's autograph. I have got the programme here - cost one shilling. The team doesn't list Arry. Number 7 was Clyde Best one of the very few black players at the time.

That is exactly what Shankly alleged. although rarely for those days there was film of the goal and it showed there was no contact. They used to use as the background film on the Friday evening day by Day when they ran through the fixtures for southern teams for the weekend.

Alec Lindsay for Liverpool in September 1970 won the game 1-0 for us at the Dell with a magnificent long range header

Ricardo Fuller went on loan to Ipswich and came back a goal machine that helped us stay up in 2006.

Never had a problem getting on the Metro after a game. The crowd has thinned a bit by the time you reach the station and it is fairly well stewarded and nothing like the Upton park queue.

I always park at Altrincham and go in by the Metro. There is a car park right by the Metro station and the cost of parking plus return ticket is probably less than for parking at the ground. The Old Trafford stop is about a 10 minute walk from the stadium. It might seem a fiddle but the big advantage of the game is that going back to Altrincham by the Metro gets you well clear of the gridlock, so it can actually be a quicker getaway. Also I was put off parking at Old Trafford by having my radio and the contents of my boot stolen in 94.

Justin Fashanu was the first on-loan player to score for Saints. But loans were relatively rare back in the early 80s.

I completed the 92 in 1994. But with new teams joining the league and the new grounds that have opened since I have got 9 outstanding, but will see off Wigan shortly. Overall total is 120. However, since my 15-year old son started going regularly in 2005 he has seen us in three different divisions and has already clocked up 69 grounds.

I had same problem. I was ok. My son who has been to the same number of games wasn't eligible but my father-in-law who has only been to two games was eligible. Called the ticket enquiry line and when I finally got through to a very helpful assistant she sold me the tickets over the phone, she confirmed that they have been having technical issues which should be sorted shortly.

Renewed my insurance in November. After an accident free year in which my annual mileage dropped from 45,000 to 15,000 I was expecting the premium to stay the same or even be slightly less. In fact they wanted to charge £229 more. It took only a few minutes to find quotes that were less in themselves than this increase. The best turned out to be the RAC - who I had left the previous year because of their inflated costs on renewal. The insurance industry simply has no concept of maintaining customer loyalty

Bicarbonate of soda dabbed directly on - hurts like hell. Recommended by my brother in law who is a GP. Gengigel (you can get it from Boots) also helps. Once had 20 over Christmas, I could hardly speak.

We paid £3.25 million for Phillips and got £1 million when we sold him to Villa. £2.25 million for 22 league goals in 2 seasons is not fantastic value but way better than many of the names in this thread. In defence of Phillips, the job was not exactly as advertised. He was signed by Strachan who was gone within the season and he ended up playing for four managers including Arry who clearly took against him.

Where have 10 years gone?

We didn't pay anything for Kanchelskis. He came orginally just to train with us. Then Strachan gave him a 1 year contract at the start of 2012/13. But he left in the January transfer window. So in the scale of waste we are talking here he hardly registers. And we did win the one game he played in. For me its Mark Hughes. What I hated most is that when he signed his agent said 'Southampton have never had a player like Mark Hughes' - because of course we never had a player who was voted European Footballer of the Year two years in a row. Because Hughes couldn't hack it as the striker he was signed as he had to drop back into midfield where he was useless. I always suspected that he had a 'must play' cause in his contract. His pathetic goalscoring was due to the fact that when chances came he always went for the spectacular 'look at me' volley rather than an easy tap-in. To be fair though, he did score the greatest goal that never was in our history.
