I find it ironic that you are have been one of the main Pro-Lowe people on this board, yet it appears due our current postion you think things need to change, I dare say blamiong it all on the manager. We are playing the way we are with a young team due to Lowe, Poortvliet is trying to do the best he can with the resources or lack of resources he has at his disposal. But he is restricted in what he can do, especially as some players are apparately not playing because their wages are appearance related. However although I'm not a Lowe supporter, I feel we do not need to panic yet, we are playing some of the best football I've seen us play for years, we just need to tighten up the defence a bit and be more ruthless in attack IMO.

Sorry EFM didn't notice you'd repied with same answer already, would like to know who scored goals in 73/74 season though got a feeling that Ossie scored at lease one at the Dell and i'm certain that David Peach scored at Fratton that season and also scored in that 4-0 win too.

Mike Channon scored 4 goals agaist them in 1975/76 season alone. This included a hat trick at home and last minute winner at Fratton days after we won the semi final against Palace, which prompted the start of an almighty scrap at the Milton Lane end of Fratton park. Can't remember who scored the previous season when we beat them 2-1 both home and away

Mick was my first Saints Hero, just hope he's OK

Don't konw how many tickets we've sold although I had to get another 2 for mates yesterday. I think you'll find quite a few on 9.10 train, I'm getting on with 3 others at Salisbury. I would be grateful if those getting on before Salisbury don't sit in our reserved seats please.

Absolutely correct nickh - but that's not what Mr Wilde said he got his facts wrong. It makes wonder how many other errors or inaccuracies there are in his statement ?.

"AS we look forward to the start of a new season, it seems hard to imagine that only three months ago the club was only one Leicester goal away from relegation and possible administration." Get your facts right Mr. Wilde. If Leicester had scored one goal Coventry would have been relegated not Saints !
