The 'Lockdown' Saints Quiz

At QPR. twice. 4-0 in 85 and 2-0 in 86. By the time we won there in 88 they were back on grass.

I'm guessing but was the 4-3 win at Luton in 91 on plastic?

Yes it was, Luton got rid of their plastic pitch at the end of that season, was the only time we won on it, they beat us 7-0 and 6-0 though. Your question sir.

To you.

I have played in a World Cup finals, have 86 international caps, over 500 appearances for other clubs and over 100 goals in my career but despite being signed by Southampton I never made a first team appearance. Who am I?

Bledelis played as a sub, so I guess you mean "signed" when he was a nipper?

Delgado's cousin. Kleber Chala.

Correct

Who was the first player to be sent off at St Marys Stadium?

Tahar after his assualt on Dyer ?

Tahar after his assualt on Dyer ?

Before then.

David Prutton?

Before then.

Was it in the Blackburn game? We lost 2-1, seem to remember that being controversial.

Who was the first player to be sent off at St Marys Stadium?

The first game I saw at St Mary's was a 3-1 defeat against Villa. I think Rory Delap got a red card that night followed by a Villa player later, so I'll say Delap

Ok, as it's Easter weekend, this question is about a match on Easter Monday 2006. Saints beat Millwall 2-0 in the championship, a result that confirmed Millwall's relegation to League 1. During the game, a light plane flew over the stadium trailing the banner "Time to go, Rupert Lowe". Those 2 things aside, there was something else significant about that match - what was it?

Gareth Bale's debut.

I think that was the game when I saw a Saints fan spark a Millwall fan out in the car park. The Millwall guy was running around gobbing off and trying to provoke people. A Saints fan then obliged by giving him a right hook on the chin. He went down a bit like his team.

Lets B is correct. Bale made his debut in that match at 16 years and 275 days old according to Wikipedia

Who was the last ex-Saints player to score against us?

Who was the last ex-Saints player to score against us?

Actually, I think it's Antonio in our defeat at West Ham

Who was the last ex-Saints player to score against us?

Antonio

Think I beat Colin by a few seconds there?

OK - this is mega obscure.....

In recent times, we have moved away from the good old fashioned numbers 1 to 11, with higher and higher (often random) numbers being assigned to the squad.

So, often the keeper isn't No.1, maybe the No.2 is injured etc and the lowest number in the starting is No.3 or higher.

In Saints's history, in our starting XI, what has been the highest number on the back of the player's shirt and that player has still been the lowest number of all the Saints players in the starting line up?

What was the number and who wore it?

JWP 16

Ramsey 66

Wanyama 12

Long 7

Possibly a cup game where a number of the lower numbers were rested? No idea!

It’s a central defender

Aaron Martin 16

Nope. Guys - it’s going to be a low number. Can you really imagine us fielding a team in which none of the players from, say, 1 - 15 start the match?

Hoedt 6

Was thinking that FA Cup game with Cov about 9 years ago, we fielded a few second string.

Schneiderlin 4

This is probably one of the worst quiz questions I have ever seen

True dat.

I believe there was a period when Dan Seabourne wore 0.5 on the back of his shirt, as part of the great decimalisation craze of the early 2010s.

4 versergaard

Or

5 Stephens

Not quite right ,his shirt number referred to the shape of his head, 1 GBP/2 = 50p

nope. you're all wrong.

Well. I'll end the torment and pose an alternative ( the answer btw was Gardos).

Which Saints player (i.e. at Southampton at the time) was the last to score a World Cup (in the finals, not qualifiers) goal which was decisive in determining the outcome of that match?

Channon

Going to guess Anders Svensson.
