Minty Posted 1 November, 2011 Posted 1 November, 2011 Intrigued that one has "© S M Cannings 2010" on it when I know for a fact that that photo was taken by Andy Mintram... That did make me chuckle. The club would also have something to say about it seeing as they share the copyright...
Norm Posted 1 November, 2011 Posted 1 November, 2011 A guy called I_Hoops posted these on Twitter yesterday and I hope he doesn't mind if I link to them here. They are all of the St Marys site from before it was cleared and St Marys built. I think the first is of the site from the bridge / by the new foot bridge, the 2nd would be looking across the Northam car park from the Britannia Road entrance and the last one is looking at what is now reception. The pictures aren't that great but it's fascinating to see the site before the stadium was built. I wonder if anybody else has pics of the site pre-SMS? Yes, Joe. I have two albums of the stadium site pre, during and at construction end. I have thought about putting them on fleabay, as I'm clearing out drawers/loft ect. Yes, Joe. I have two albums of photos of the stadium site pre, during and on completion. I have thought about putting them on Fleabay as I'm clearing out loft/drawers. I might try to scan one or two and put on here.
1976_Child Posted 1 November, 2011 Posted 1 November, 2011 Fellas, this thread could not possibly be complete without a picture of the most distinguished gent to ever wear the Red and White. I give you, Charles Burgess Fry: Users of the Dell Bar will recognize it. It is on the wall opposite the big screen.
1976_Child Posted 1 November, 2011 Posted 1 November, 2011 bloody plastics. Where were they for the rest of the season? They should all have a season ticket waived in their faces.
sussexsaint Posted 1 November, 2011 Posted 1 November, 2011 Pathetic as it sounds actually felt quite emotional looking at some of these photos. I'm in the bus photo somewhere on my Dads shoulders. The one of Marion really got to me as well for some reason

Norm Posted 1 November, 2011 Posted 1 November, 2011 (edited) Trying to upload photo. Sorry. I'm having a real senior moment, trying to upload some photos of SMS during construction. I think it better to view in my (new) photobucket Saints album. (If anyone is interested). http://s1222.photobucket.com/albums/dd494/NormanB14/ Edited 1 November, 2011 by Norm

Sour Mash Posted 2 November, 2011 Posted 2 November, 2011 Anyone know where I could get a large print of the 2nd picture? Very decent is that.
TheMidfieldGeneral Posted 2 November, 2011 Posted 2 November, 2011 Thats Ronnie Ekland not Marion if Im not mistaken? That's why I said ANOTHER magical Saint.... hth.
Jack Posted 3 November, 2011 Posted 3 November, 2011 Anyone know where I could get a large print of the 2nd picture? Very decent is that. This^^ Bumped thread hoping someone out there knows
Saints foreva Posted 3 November, 2011 Posted 3 November, 2011 Great picture of The Dell. Thanks for posting it!
fareham saint phil Posted 4 November, 2011 Posted 4 November, 2011 What a fantastic thread this is and some fantastic pictures that bring back great memories, thanks to everyone that ha posted a picture, what about MLT after he'd lobbed schiecal in the 6-3, arms out wide, that "fan****ingtastic" look on his face
alpine_saint Posted 4 November, 2011 Posted 4 November, 2011 Is that Micky Fialka ? you are a funny one, O_B.
alpine_saint Posted 4 November, 2011 Posted 4 November, 2011 Am I right in thinking this was the last one Lizzie ever did (Or is that just a Saints myth) Yes, you are right. Why do it again once you've fulfilled your life times dream and handed it over to God's Own Team ???
lettuce Posted 4 November, 2011 Posted 4 November, 2011 What an absolutely bonkers stand the Milton was (in its various incarnations)!

Hemel Saint Posted 4 November, 2011 Posted 4 November, 2011 a couple of my favourites are on this site... not sure about being 'allowed' to post their images on here, so have attached the links... http://media.hof.wemakemedia.co.uk/cache/5461_display.jpg http://media.hof.wemakemedia.co.uk/cache/937_display.jpg http://media.hof.wemakemedia.co.uk/cache/934_display.jpg worth a look, me thinks.
alehouseboys Posted 4 November, 2011 Posted 4 November, 2011 An even earlier shot of a 1930s Dell looking towards the Milton, no 'Choccie Boxes' back then. Queen Mary in distance docked near Town Quay. ...and an iconic photo of the 1970s Milton Road End.
Norm Posted 4 November, 2011 Posted 4 November, 2011 I can see my old house in Burlington Road in the 2nd picture above!

Love those links to pics from the Upper Milton, that view up Milton road especially brings back memories as that was where I first started watching the Saints. Excellent thread, keep 'em coming...
krissyboy31 Posted 4 November, 2011 Posted 4 November, 2011 Was the second one above taken from some sort of blimp or airship? Overdell tower block would certainly not have been built by then.
sotonjoe Posted 4 November, 2011 Posted 4 November, 2011 Yes, Joe. I have two albums of photos of the stadium site pre, during and on completion. I have thought about putting them on Fleabay as I'm clearing out loft/drawers. I might try to scan one or two and put on here. Sounds great. I'd love to see some if you could scan!
Norm Posted 4 November, 2011 Posted 4 November, 2011 Sounds great. I'd love to see some if you could scan! Joe, with Krakens help, I have posted some on post No 62.

Give it to Ron Posted 4 November, 2011 Posted 4 November, 2011 Great pictures of two of my heroes - Sydie and Elvis who would be worth about 15m each nowadays. The memories of watching those two I have as a boy stood on the terraces are worth more than any money though they are irreplaceable and coupled with Big Ron some fantastic matches.
Dr Who? Posted 4 November, 2011 Posted 4 November, 2011 Is that a power station at the top? Yes it is, and where Toys are us is now.
Michelle Posted 4 November, 2011 Posted 4 November, 2011 I was about to say, I wonder how many Minty has in his extensive library!!!

Norm Posted 5 November, 2011 Posted 5 November, 2011 No explanation needed! (my lot for a while) [/img]
Dr Who? Posted 6 November, 2011 Posted 6 November, 2011 This one cannot drift off the page, there has to be more photos from people, get scanning and I will in the week from my Saints books!!
Norm Posted 7 November, 2011 Posted 7 November, 2011 I agree with you, Dr Who? There must be loads of photos out there, get scanning people!
ericofarabia Posted 7 November, 2011 Posted 7 November, 2011 Matt Le Tissier on Holiday .... Big Nose .... he's got fecking big nose .....
