st alex Posted 19 February, 2016 Share Posted 19 February, 2016 Just for fun, may have been done before (apologies if so). I pass Butterfield Road in Bassett quite often and then today noticed an Oakley Road in Freemantle. And it got me thinking, can would it be possible to put together a 'dream' team using just Southampton street names that are share the same name as current or ex-players? Besides those two there is of course Ted Bates Road which is probably the only one which is actually named after a player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colinjb Posted 19 February, 2016 Share Posted 19 February, 2016 Slightly askew from this, it always worried me that there was a 'Fratton way' in fair oak, surrounded by a cluster of other football ground related routes. (Thankfully there is 'Dell close' thrown in there too.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkshire Saint Posted 21 February, 2016 Share Posted 21 February, 2016 I salute everywhere I see the liebherr name. I was in Liverpool docks last week ...huge container ship got a salute which pleased me in that **** hole. Regularly salute the diggers etc on the motorway and took one on the m42 on the way to Swansea as a good omen.... Though this principle did not work at the stadium of light when they knocked us out of the fa cup with that huge liebherr building outside the ground.
