Dear Kathy Leibherrs,

 

I started going to Saints games with my dad, which I suppose is something I have in common with 1000s of other fans. I mean not that they went with my dad, they probably went with their own dads. If my dad fathered 1000s of other saints fans in addition to myself, he always kept it quiet. Worried about child support probably.

 

He was a black guy, my dad, and known locally for his massive afro haircut which, for some reason, he always dyed bright green. "Woody" they used to call him because he looked like a great oak in summertime. He always felt safe at the dell tho, even in football's blackest days (or whitest days depending how you look at it) no-one ever gave him grief at Southampton. He used to say if he wanted to eat a banana at the dell he would generally have to bring his own.

 

He was a big saints fan though! My dad knew absolutely everything there is to know about Southampton. What colours they play in, how many European Cups they had won, anything you'd care to mention. He just really loved the saints. Always. He used to say, there is nothing that will ever stop me going to St Mary's.

 

My dad died in 2004. He had been saying for years, "If that useless plank Lundekvam ever scores a f*cking goal I'll jump in the river itchen." That of course happened vs Wolves 3rd April 2004. I was with him at the time, I tried to stop him but he took a nose dive off the Itchen bridge. I threw what i thought was a white life buoy after him but it turned out to be a tonne bag of ballast which got entangled around the yellow bulb of his penis and dragged him to his watery grave.

 

I might have turned my back on the saints at that time. I was quite upset. However saints are a club that cares for its community and they very quickly decided to redesign the club badge in memorium to my father. When I look at it now, when I see my father and his green Afro drowning in the itchen with a tonne bag tied to the bulb of his penis I feel, not pride exactly, but something close to it. I feel respect.

 

Yours,

As a young apprentice fish slapper barely out of my short trousers I first started supporting the Saints way back in the summer of 1884. I realise now this was silly as I had to wait a whole flipping year before the club played its first game. But times were hard back then and a working man had to take what he could get. For the next three years come rain or avalanche I never missed a single game until that time I had to flee to the Outer Hebrides disguised as a Rear Admiral in the Peruvian Navy because of that 'Jack the Ripper' business.

 

On my return I single handedly invented the steam powered internet in the hope that I might be able to contact my fellow Saints fans and regal them with tales of my in-depth football knowledge and sell them rubber goods in the process. I made a small fortune in no time at all and decided to sell up and invest everything in buying the Whelk Concession aboard a new White Star liner that was said to be unsinkable. Thinks were looking up, but I soon hit rock bottom.

 

But 'there's nowt in this world that can keep a good man down for long' as my old Dad said just before they buried him, so I picked myself up by my boot laces and found work in a Freemantle treacle factory. The work was bloody hard and the pay only twopence ha'penny a month and all the Pile ointment you could eat, but after only thirty years I was able to save enough money to buy myself my own sheet of corrugated iron so that me, Mrs Charlie and our 23 horrible kids had a roof over our heads at last. I'd never had it so good.

 

So to cut a long story short here I am all these years later still supporting the Saints and still spouting bullsh1t just the same as I've always done. Now someone asked me t'other day if I had my time all over again would I change a single thing, and you know what I said to him?

 

Too bloody right I would!

Oh sigh I got flushed again! I thought it was gonna be v.main board thread bout emotions + stories bout why people love saints! If I'd known it was gonna get flushed I'd have included more tits!

 

Sometimes, you know I feel bit persecution. If anyone else started thread bout same subject it wouldn't get flushed. :( I'm a lot like Jesus, no-one took his main board threads seriously either :(

When new mods are inducted into their clandestine brotherhood, they are given three strict instructions - never interrupt Steve Grant, never pass the port to the right, and if in doubt, flush at least one of Bearsy's threads to TMS. The results are there for all to see.
