I read an article in the Echo about Tessem around a month ago. He was saying he could still "cut it" in the Championship.

 

Clearly, clearly.

I can understand his point of view. After all he did play a handful of games for Lge 2 Bournemouth!

Just interesting, thats all.[/quote

 

 

I liked Tessem, always gave 100%. Another player who never found a regular place because successive managers

(especially Strachan) who used him "everywhere," as a utility player when others were injured. Unfortunately some fans got at him a bit, when he was forced to play striker alongside Beattie who ran out of fit partners.

 

Clearly not his role (despite being 6'3") but had a good record (as midfielder) and often scored as oncoming sub, and what fan could forget him salvaging a point at Highbury 2002 when heading in a goal and surrounded by FIVE Arsenal defenders) see photo p.274 of In that Number.

 

At Conference level ...if he's still fit enough, he'll do OK. Why not ?

 

(Dennis Wise played part of a season for Saints back in.. 'appy 'arry's time , when he was around 40.)

Good stuff.

 

The fact that he has signed for Eastleigh rather than p*ss off back to Norway shows his appreciation of the area and of Saints. Always liked him, even if he wasn't our most gifted player.

 

Saints joint top scorer, along with Oakley and Anders, in the '03 cup run.

I thought it was because his missus didn't want to go to Norway

Ah, could be. I just thought he was one of those players like Beatts, MLT, CMFG, Dodd etc. who settled into the area.
