Saints vs Bolton - Saturday 3pm

[Teamsaint1]

Travelwise, Salisbury to Southampton must be the best maintained  piece of railway in the country. 
mumble grumble.

Anybody used the matchday park and ride from Adanac Park?
Service any good ?

Travelling down from Essex for the game. What time would you expect the players to arrive? Be good to try and catch them for the children!

Did it last season with mine, they arrived just before 11am for a 3pm kick off. (Got loads of pics / autographs then went for some lunch)

Seem to remember they beat us on the opening day one year. Just looked it up and it was 1997, at home. My formative CM years just trying to keep Saints in the Prem. Poor line up that day. Found the highlights,  Nathan Blake scored the winner.

Line was:

Paul Jones

Ken Monkou

Lee Todd

Richard Dryden

Robbie Slater

Matt Oakley

Jim Magilton

Neil Maddison

Andy Williams

Egil Ostenstadt

Mickey Evans.

No MLT, Evans was soon sold despite his end of season goals, Lee Todd was just shite, Slater, Maddison and Magilton only played a few more games before they were transferred out. I don't even remember Andy Williams! Early days for Dave Jones though as he started his rebuilding process with ageing pros like Palmer, Hirst and Richardson.

Hopefully the modern day squad can get a result. 

Stig Johannson’s debut as sub IIRC. WHAT a player he would go on to be for us.

Like a reverse child catcher...

Bolton not the best at defending. Only the bottom 5 have conceded more than them.
