Turkish Posted 7 November, 2014 Share Posted 7 November, 2014 It was, same game the entire away was making the substitution gesture, felt very bleak at that point and i doubt most there could've predicted this now! Ha ha ha, that was very funny though, remember it well. 3,000 saints fans doing that and chants of "make a sub" LLoyd James, Ollie Lancashire, Paul Wotton, Matt Paterson in the team. That night i genuinely thought we might go down again that season, we were dreadful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lets B Avenue Posted 7 November, 2014 Share Posted 7 November, 2014 Was that the 1-0 loss with Austin scoring? No subs made until the 75th minute or something and Pardew moaning about how he had no decent options off there anyway. *PEDANT ALERT* Morrison, their centre-half, scored. Austin scored in the 1-0 a year later, when Wilkins was in (ahem) charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That night i genuinely thought we might go down again that season, we were dreadful. Yeah the sub thing was funny, but fu,ck me it was bleak! Remember the trip back in the car all of us talking about how we were going to be ****ed for a longtime, and one lad there saying that we should go all out to sign a player called Rickie Lambert. Obviously the rest of us wrote him off as a lower league journey man. Talk about being proved wrong.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets B Avenue Posted 8 November, 2014 Share Posted 8 November, 2014 Tell you what, I can find something negative! I'd have rather had pictures of Ron Davies and Bobby Stokes on the walls than Gareth Bale and Theo Walcott. A great mural to have on a wall would be the stages of the '76 cup final goal as you walk down the corridor, ending with Rodrigues lifting the trophy at the end. Had a quick sneak round it this afternoon, after watching a relative play against the U18's in a friendly. There is a photo of Ron and another of Rodrigues, on players shoulders, with the Cup.

CamberwellSaint Posted 9 November, 2014 Share Posted 9 November, 2014 Totally justified to name the pavilion after Markus Leibherr- it was nice that its just a simple steel plaque rather than some of ostentatious signage (though that seems in keeping with the kind of man he was, listening to what Krueger and Reed say about him). And yes, he did save the club- from liquidation (nobody else came along and stumped up the cash, he did), and at the same time from being bought by loons (Tan at Cardiff, Assam at Hull) or chancers (SISU at Coventry). To come on a thread like this and start an argument about what 'saving the club' means takes a special kind of tool. WIFM! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearsy Posted 9 November, 2014 Share Posted 9 November, 2014 It is pretty interesting what we're doing. The dollar clubs usually spend on squad players we spend on markus liebherr pavillions & youth training. I read we have the smallest squad of senior bros in the Premier League, but I spose that is trade off to give route to young bros route to first team. I.e. I reckon we're gonna sacrifice Jack Cork in the summer to give more opportunity to Reed + Ward-Prowse. Redslo should write a blog post on it, or whatever.

What even after Morgan and big Vic have left for Arsenal and Citeh in the summer? Next year our midfield will be Cork, Davis, Reed and JWP plus 1 other that Ronald brings in .....you heard it hear first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think these big clubs would have learnt by now after the impressive work of our double agents at Liverpool, Tottenham,Man U and Arsenal.

Gemmel Posted 20 November, 2014 Share Posted 20 November, 2014 Apologies if this seems a stupid question. Is Staplewood now called the Markus Liebherr Pavilion in its entirety or is it still Staplewood, with just the pavilion named after Markus? I wasn't 100% sure at the time, but assumed it was just the pavilion that bore his name, but then read this article http://talksport.com/football/revealed-reasons-southampton-are-second-premier-league-141120125478 which talks about it as "The Markus Liebherr Training Complex". Wouldn't be the first time Journalists got it wrong, but thought I would check Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint-Armstrong Posted 20 November, 2014 Share Posted 20 November, 2014 I think it's called the Staplewood Campus. The main pavilion building is named after Markus. Correct. I went to the opening and at the main gates there is a black and silver illuminated sign which says 'STAPLEWOOD CAMPUS' with arrows for 'CAR PARK', 'MARKUS LIEBHERR PAVILION' etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
