TwoPints Posted 10 July, 2016 Share Posted 10 July, 2016 Please mods. Loyal Saints legend and a euro winning defender who would walk into any defence in the BPL. Saints legend. You beat me to it. I was going to suggest the same thing. Easily a Saints Legend. Sent from my SM-T810 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint in Paradise Posted 11 July, 2016 Share Posted 11 July, 2016 + another 1. There's plenty of space to Rickie's right. Err Matt Le Tissier is on Rickie's right ( thought I would say that before a real pedantic sod did ) Anyway back to the point, like Disco Stu says IF he retires when with Saints then yes put him on the banner. However I seem to remember a campaign to get a certain ex manager up there and that didn't happen so I won't be holding my breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulSaint Posted 11 July, 2016 Share Posted 11 July, 2016 +1 Keegan out, Fonte in! Agreed, KK jumped in that Geordie Helicopter too quick. Fonte deserves to be up there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cabrone Posted 11 July, 2016 Share Posted 11 July, 2016 Cost us £1M (could be argued that it's one of the best millions we've ever spent), dropped a division to join us, consistently superb (arguably making his partners look better than they may have been?), loyal, enjoys the club, first ever Saints player to win the European championship(?) and had a dust up with crazy DaniO . I'm not one for bandwagons but come on - surely Jose deserves this accolade? Surely Ron Davies deserves a place. +1. Certainly deserves it a lot more than Keegan (nothing personal, just that special K didn't hang around too long) PS: All dependent on Jose not going to 'Pool of course.

georgeweahscousin Posted 11 July, 2016 Share Posted 11 July, 2016 Had a bicker with someone on twitter who doesn't think Fonte is worthy of 'legend' status. For me he definitely does. Been part of our rise from the bottom back to where we belong and even higher. Vital goal at Brighton, JPT, consistent defender, captain, took an Osvaldo headbutt and now a European champion. He's as eligible as Rickie in my opinion. Put him on the banner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jai27 Posted 11 July, 2016 Share Posted 11 July, 2016 He should be up there, no question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrfahaji Posted 11 July, 2016 Share Posted 11 July, 2016 If Jose returns from the Euros and announces he wants to join Everton, or Liverpool, or Spurs, would he still warrant a place on the legends banner? If so, put him up there. If not, wait until he has moved on or retired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angelman Posted 11 July, 2016 Share Posted 11 July, 2016 In this day and age, testimonials seem to be ever more rare. Without wanting to demean Kelvin's time/achievement with us, I would not begrudge José one, even if he hasn't been here 10 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cellone Posted 11 July, 2016 Share Posted 11 July, 2016 Wait until he retires, heaven forbid he has a fallout and joins Liverpool. ??? Lambert didn't even represent Saints at the World Cup before he did one to LFC and he's up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fan The Flames Posted 11 July, 2016 Share Posted 11 July, 2016 There were plenty of people that wouldn't have minded him leaving after that season with Lovren and getting someone else in to partner Lovren. Little did people realise that he was the strength in that parnership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little did people realise that he was the strength in that parnership. I had my doubts about Fonte in the Championship, never mind the Premier League. Even though that seems wide of the mark given what he has achieved, by the same margin I think he has improved immeasurely since our promotion, as both an individual player and a leader. Of course, no-one on a national level would pick up on it, but we all know that it's no coincidence that Pepe has looked like a Real Madrid rather than Real Salt Lake player since Fonte has lined up alongside him.

Lighthouse Posted 12 July, 2016 Share Posted 12 July, 2016 I'd have Fonte instead of Lambert and Pahars instead of Keegan personally. Whilst we're at it, who is that between Miller and Paine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
