That's an impressive list.
I understand your sentiments about the young 'uns.
I started watching Saints in 89/90 so although I'm hardly a veteran I got to witness nowt but top flight footy, some good cup runs, some amazing great escapes, some brilliant players and, of course, MLT's career. Sure, there was some awful ****e too (Branfoot, Dixon and Speedie, Mark Hughes, Wigley..) but mostly it was great.
Since the relegation season, however, with the brief exception of the relative success of the play-off season, I look around at SMS at the young kids and have the utmost sympathy that they have come to Saints at such a ****ty time. Of course, if they stick with it then they may well be about to witness one of the greatest periods of our history... although there is much to be done.
