That's him...mate!!

To be fair mate, not in the business of depriving a genuine fan...especially one that attends more than me, just not sure if there are 44,000 of them??? Politely contacted the club - zero response?? Frustrating being an 'overseas' Saint these days.

That'd be the guy, can you give a brief description so that we're on the same page f'sure.

Always played this (link below) on the car cassette player (after recording it from a 45) when we were on the way to away games....Breath-taking still to these days. Last time home drove to four games with TTjr, he loved listening to the Northern Soul stuff on the way to Oldham and Sarfend... Dig this

Someone contacted me with reference to a Saints fan Frank Powell who liked a bit of Northern Soul. Does anyone remember him from games in the mid to late 70s? Went to a lot of away games up North (due to the locality of Wigan Casino and Blackpool no doubt). Be honest I cannot remember him.

We're all Saints fans with one common love - the team. It doesn't matter where you are, who you are. GM is absolutely entitled to his opinion FFS and everyone else to there reactions, I have terrible knee-jerk reactions sometimes/we all do - let's just focus on what should unite us. We are boys in the Red & White, We love to sing and we love...well you know ;-)

Alright for those that can even get tickets Rabbit mate...

Pain in the mother fornicating postier FFS

The Millwall guy was Tony. He was a fixture around the town for over two decades. Messed up hair and a butcher's coat FFS

Excellent, don't kill y'self, but if it's not too difficult just post one or pm me.

Yeah nice one Al, we'll use the other one then, thanks mate.

You just cannot beat those two photos, big thanks!!

Jeez, now you got the grey matter going...I can see his face!!

Steve...no, but thanks!! That excellent shot is in the care of the US Postal Service, on it's merry way to New Mexico!! What a SuperSaint you are mush, that is a huge help.

Steve BINGO!!!! Perfecto mate!! More like that, this one is spot on!!

FFS wow? Yeah, I'll ask him about the 'engravings' (is that right?)

Ron is going to do a picture of Brian O'Neil and the only reference photos he has are good but very small. Can anyone post a link or pm me with a decent sized shot of the player who Ron describes as "The best player he has ever seen - in the mud!!" As far as Ron Himself goes, we was thrilled about our big win at the weekend. We have it sorted so that he can now watch a few games from home. This week he watched City beat Chelsk...realize that he is sharp as you like but somewhat out of touch with the modern game. He was astounded that both teams had Itallian coaches. He lied his countryman Bellamy's performance. While chatting we talked about former 'keepers. He loved Eric but wished he was a bit bigger and more dominant. He said if you could have to put all the qualities of our three Scots goalies (McClaren, Martin and Forsythe) we'd have had a good number 1. He did joke that McClaren was so late and slow diving for some shots that the ref booked him for time wasting. His comment about Campbell was, he went to the doctor with a cold and the doc said 'Thank Christ, at last you've finally caught something!!'...he was just kidding of course. Ron is well, he is very mobile, his car and new hips have given him a new lease of life. His only problem is breathing, he has oxygen at home to help him in that area.

Danny and Sonny's younger brother Franny McCormick always was in there for games...they'd always have those Isley Bros songs playing 'That Lady' and 'Summer Breeze'. Went there prior to the lose-lose United game just before we were both relegated. They closed the place early, when we got to the ground the only place we could get in was under the West stand..let me tell you, you didn't want to be there. If it was not for Dean Prince, Jewitt and a couple of others I don't know what would have happened to me. I got bottled and bleeding head and all, there was so many injuries etc they just propped me against the wall right by Big Lawrie in the dug-out. Best view in the house, trouble is do not remember much of it besides how big and useless Jim Holton was and that massive off on the field right in front of the player's entrance...We needed two points that day, oh well!

LMAO, there was that other D&D lad, better looking and really well turned out as well. The girlies down the Pier or in the Bird's Nest used to love him, he was a good 'un. Dave was his name I think, he would go sometimes, stand right at the back of the Milton, so that he could 'see' everything if front of him because of his hearing. Never saw him after we were relegated. Another person I saw this year, like a blast from the past, on one of my trips home to se Saints on the road was Kim (aka Kimmy) Rose. Saw him at Southend away, he was dressed in a suit and I think with a son or a younger fan. Anyone remember Kim?

I know one thing, there will be a massive clear out at the end of the season whatever happens...player wise that is.

Mate - he has an extremely valid point, I totally empathize. He is so right in the majority (if not all) cases, so fair play to him. Don't feel in any way that I'm glorifying trouble, aggro or bovver, that's not the intent. However it happened, we were immersed in it, it surrounded us. That is why I always relate the game, how we played etc...all intrinsically linked for so many Saints fans. Coupling one with the other helps us reflect those days, maybe it intensifies the power of recollection?? We, as Saints Forum users, have so many commonalities...sometimes it makes us feel good to get them out in the open so that we can relate more positively (in most cases) to our fellow subscribers...or maybe I'm being naive??

...but you'd relive the game in the Pink on the way home, hey mate? Before Graham Hiley who was the match reporter(s)?

Hello Deppo, how you doing mate? I suggest you speak for y'self mush...as you frequently do. Now you have a nice day and (if you want) leave this thread to those that enjoy it and there are several of them to say the least.

Hey Tooms, after games did you ever used to use either the boozers by the H&D station, the Lord Louis or the Windsor. There'd be the game, then all the drama, then wait for the 'Pink' and hit one of those two bars for a read and to discuss all that had gone on. D&D Tony ("Mi-wall") would frequently be in there. Who was that (kinda creepy) older type that'd always hang round there also...Dave Beer was it?

Also went to the same school as Karen Bailey and dated Pat Lovelock who kicked me in the crown jewels when I finished with her ! ( Both mentioned in another thread ) Ouch, hey Breeny was Karen dating Terry Beale from Thornhill way when you were with Pat? Those two were together for ages. Bob, Terry's brother is still a good mate of mine. Terry was good mates with other Saints regulars Steve Taylor, Gary Clements, Kev Cousins and Al Pont. Kevin Cousins excelled himself at pompee away for Milkens testimonial when we stuffed them 0-7...another mental Saints night in '72!!
