rallyboy Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 All the best Rickie, that was a golden era. What an honour it was to share and witness his journey from factory to World Cup finals - sad to see him go, but if you love em... Now let's build a new side.

Unbelievable Jeff Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 Is it just me or did he not thank Cortese? Yet thanked KL. Guess thse rumours of him being forced out in Jan against his will could be true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable Jeff Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 does he thank KL? Ha, no he doesn't, he at least mentions her though. Strange that he didn't even mention NC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batman Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 Ha, no he doesn't, he at least mentions her though.

davefizzy14 Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 Gonna miss you so much Rickie if it weren't for you, we wouldn't be where we are now. Your always a Saints Legend in my eyes and it's just been topped off with that special letter I wish you all the best at Liverpool, you deserve it and it will be amazing to see you score at the World Cup too. Thanks Rickie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorgiesaint Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 It took me 2 attempts to read Rickie's letter whilst at work due to be very misty eyed! Hard though it is to lose our talisman, you would have to be totally heartless to deny him that move. Thank you Rickie for your contributions over the last 5 years - we've enjoyed watching you as much as it sounds like you enjoyed playing for us. Just don't curl in a trademark free-kick against us in the last minute at the Kop End next season - that would be going too far!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ewell Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 I don't give a **** that this sounds a bit geh but it has to be said. I ****ing love you Rickie Lambert. Only second to Le Tis for me. Good luck at Liverpool mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parkgatesaint Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 Rickie - Just read your letter on another forum website link and wondered what fans were saying on this - totally agree with the positive nature of the responses. You have lived our dreams…the five year plan was achieved and look at you now, playing for England and we supported a team that won most points ever in the Premiership. You enjoyed the promotions, we enjoyed being there and putting you on our shoulders. I cannot wait for Southampton v Liverpool at SMS and you come on after 60 minutes to both sets of fans applauding - it will be awesome. Thanks for five years and enjoy playing for your dreams - whilst we remember ours. ParkgateSaint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpturner Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 (edited) Did you ever wonder why you had your head flushed down the school toilets at least once a week!! Trust me - nobody dared to that. If I had a name like "John Boy" it might have been different. Edited 2 June, 2014 by kpturner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpturner Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 He can have as many bloody threads as we can fit on the page. Well maybe it's just as well. The other thread is riddled with anti-Lambert spiteful vitriol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SarniaSaint Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 Just hollow words Wonder who wrote it Gerrard or Hodgson? or maybe they just dictated the words to Lambert? As the say in the acting business "go on and break a leg" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SarniaSaint Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 Don't be so pointlessly bitter. bitter - yes, pointless - no just shows me what I have all ways suspected that the FA and England team set up are rotten to core and condone and encourage tapping up. Still hope he breaks a leg LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlakeySFC Posted 2 June, 2014 Share Posted 2 June, 2014 A truly class act. Rickie will go down as one of the few true Saints legends in my opinion. Honoured to have been at the matches live when he scored his first and last goal for us, poetic. When we play Liverpool (home or away) next season would it be appropriate to sing the SRL song for the very last time or should it now be permanently retired?

We sing about MLT and Pahars from time to time. Could still sing about Rickie taking us to the Prem. Otherwise we'll be left with about 2 songs now.
