Now I'd class myself in the top couple of % in saints knowledge. Been to 60 odd grounds, can tell you scorers in games in the 90's but who the hell is Alex Pearce?? Said he scored two goals one at preston and one v wolves at both games. Now we had some turd... Ifil, pekhart, bignall, the lad who killed someone. But no memory on this lad at all.

With us around the same time as the above, seem to remember he did okay when he was in a confident frame of mind.

who was the CB that was absolutely horrific when he first started..under burley I think when we lost 4-1 to palace..?

 

Alan Bennett. Turned out alright in the end, remember an absolutely outstanding display at home to Cardiff.

Now of Cheltenham Town.

 

Remember Andrew Davies? On loan at lowly Bradford...

Mature for his age and good in the air, though not very quick. Remember the Preston goal well. All in all, decent enough for us but most players would have looked good alongside Lancashire....

And home to Hull (4-0) Him and Davies were unbeatable that day. If you had to say one of the teams playing that day would get promoted to the PL not many would have said Hull.....

Do remember him getting absolutely analled by Kuqi at Palace - one of the worst individual and team performances i've seen in recent years.

 

Was that the Monday night on Sky?

 

Remember going to that, we got battered, Palace were poor back then as well, just goes to show how bad we were.

I thought he was a bloody good player for us, shame when he had to go back.

 

Speaking of that idiot Pekhart, he is playing for Nuremburg in the Bundesliga these days and doing half decent.

 

Also, what happened to that Jordan Robertson? Is he still inside?

Just as bad, playing for Dundee United I think.

Yep, that's the one -and if I remember, according to the Dutch Duo we were going into that game 'on a run', 'sky high with confidence'.

The name Alex Pearce sounds like a hot-but-crazy chick in a terrible reality TV show.

 

 

I guess I could have left "terrible" out of that sentence since it's implied.

Released now. Playing for Sc unthorpe. Well I saying playing, he hasn't made it onto the pitch since August.

I was there that night, getting well and truly baracked by my Palace supporting mate. It was freezing. Our best player on the night was Cork - the reason I was glad we signed him. Kuqi made us look stupid. Ray, my Palace mate, picked up on Lloyd James's performance at right back, saying he was quite good. Shows how much better our current position really is.

 

I see Zoltan Liptak has joined Brighton on a trial...

These were the days, eh?

 

 

(Actually, no. No they weren't. They were horrible, horrible dark days. Although this was a rare good one.)

 

I celebrated goals and wins so much more fiercely back then, because they were rarer beasts - a win would leave me smiling for days and days.

 

Now I just keep pinching myself, waiting to wake up from what must be a dream. Saints....winning more than losing? Never.

Lol. Funny how some people think he was good. I think he was average at best. Mind you, he had to play with uber-defenders like James and Skacel.

Thanks for posting that, it was absolute bedlam in the away end when the winner went in.

That was a cracking game too. God our attendance was shocking that day, I remember it was sunny and the stadium wasn't even half full. We're only "big" when we're playing well.

 

...or the crowds dipped with the return of..you know who...and despite a relegation bound club over 27,000 turned up for the match after he was gone.

Funny seeing Gobern making his debut all that time ago against Preston Seemed to have a good game as well. Couple of hoof ball's from us though. McGoldrick's goal was pretty nice too. Ah the good old days.
