That is especially for 19 and John B Saints v Forest at the Dell 3-0 and back to 3-3 in last 15 mins.First game was 1-1 at Forest....won at White Hart Lane 5-1 Great memories Ottery St Mary, but not to be too pedantic.. those 3 goals v. Forest came in the last 16 mins.(!) sorry I was there too, and the replay score was 5-0. Goals by David Burnside 2,George O'Brien 2 ..and Ken Wimshurst. (probably the BEST of many fine games he played for Saints). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david in sweden Posted 17 August, 2009 Share Posted 17 August, 2009 (edited) Hi just building a site for which I touting for ideas. Basically I'm looking for the best bits from Saints past. All ideas gratefully received. http://www.probablythebest.net/saints/ thanks Nice idea. How about season 1963-64.? No (!), we didn't get promoted, and finished a distant 5th. behind Leeds and Sunderland, but we did score 100 league goals. 20 of them in the last 4 games, culminating with a 6-1 thrashing of Rotherham to finish on 100... of which 70 were at home. We got our money's worth that season. One 7-2 win, 4 times we scored 6 goals in a game, and 5 twice. Along the way.. we also managed to lose to Pompey TWICE, lost 4-5 at home to Preston, and 0-6 away at Swansea, but won 6-4 at home to Derby - with only 9 men in 2nd half. (no subs. in those days ). Seasons goal tally; Martin Chivers and Terry Paine 21 EACH, George O'Brien (had a quiet season) and ONLY got 16, George Kirby 15, and John Sydenham 8. FOUR different players scored hat-tricks that season; Paine TWICE, O'Brien and Chivers once each and George Kirby scored 4 goals in the opening game v. Charlton. For statistical sake, these (and other players).. also scored 2 goals in a game... on 13 other occasions, ........and 8 players played in 30 or more (of 42) league games. Surely worth some sort of a mention, eh, ? Those were the days.! Edited 17 August, 2009 by david in sweden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SW11_Saint Posted 17 August, 2009 Share Posted 17 August, 2009 Just watched that Man Utd game again - you always remember the disallowed Keegan overhead kick 'goal', but how great to see that wonderful Armstrong finish for the winner.

I was standing in the corner where the players came out, (season ticket area) I still don't know how that goal was offside. Would have been onside under current rules I think.

waterlooville saint Posted 18 August, 2009 Share Posted 18 August, 2009 One of my most vivid memories was beating Newcastle at home, 3-1 in the Merrington season, as we were 1-0 down for most of the match - I always felt that was the turning point in that season and I knew we would stay up.

Had to watch the Pompey one too - interesting that their reserve goalie was a dog, if David James moves, they might need to call up one of his descendents...

A really great find Tim ......Rover. ...there must be more of this stuff around if only it can be located. I enjoyed the Millenium Video when it was produced but unfortunately there was very little film material available .......especially before *1970. A DVD with all these old film would be a great addition to A Saints fans library. (* BBC Match of the Day started )¨. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prince Jazzbo Posted 20 August, 2009 Share Posted 20 August, 2009 1st Half of the League Cup final v Forest in 1979 0-0 at home to Spurs last game of the season in 1978 Another good memory for me was when we beat sunderland 4-0 or 4-1 at home in 1975/76. They were running away with the league at the time, and we absolutely murdered them and it was on Match of the Day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
