The Cat Posted 15 March, 2014 Share Posted 15 March, 2014 http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/article/14032014-home-heart-launch-1421737.aspx My love of Southampton started when they got promoted to the Barclays Premier League. Being a person of faith I chose them as my club because they are called the Saints. My favourite person at the club all those years ago was Nicola Cortese. What a guy! Apparently he made some of the so-called fans angry when he sacked Atkins but those are the sort of fans who go to the games and judging by the noise they make when I'm watching on tv they are all quite shouty anyway. So the first game I ever remember was away to Man City. About the same time I joined Saintsweb to keep up to date with the shouty fans views. Some of them complained about the high ticket prices for that game compared to standing on something called a terrace at Peterborough but I think they made that place up. Anyway the shouty fans still went to the game and looked very happy when one of the Davis players scored to make it 2 to 1. Sadly we lost but at least we had tried hard which is what Jesus would have wanted. My proudest memory supporting Saints was watching them lose to Sunderland in the FA Cup this year. It must be a pointless competition, I haven't heard of 2 of the last 4 teams left in it so it goes to show that the other big clubs don't care abut it either. Hopefully now we'll finish one place higher in the Barclays Premier League because it's what Jesus would have wanted (both Jesus our first team coach and the Lord) Following Saints on the internet is good fun and the matchday threads are a good way for us proper fans to sensibly talk about the match while the shouty people are in the stadium. Some of the fans on the matchday threads do seem a bit cross if Saints let in a goal even when there's lots of time left to play but then someone will post a picture of a sexy Nun which is what Jesus would have wanted. In the future I hope that Saints finish 8th in the league and that our new Chairman successfully extends our brand around the world so many more people of faith can join me in supporting the Saints.
