'00' Posted 13 February, 2015 Share Posted 13 February, 2015 Is he any relation to Bob who played full back in the 70s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesaint78 Posted 13 February, 2015 Share Posted 13 February, 2015 Was thinking this morning about how Spurs fans are so excited about having Harry Kane as "one of their own". Of the academy players Saints have produced, are there any who would consider themselves die-hard Saints fans? I think Matt Targett said in an interview recently that he was a Saints fan and McCarthy here says he's a local lad. It's the "supported them as a lad factor" that I think will lead to Kane staying at Spurs for at least another couple of seasons before a move to a bigger club and may also help Saints retain the academy players that we bring through for longer.

Did Drew Surman count? Remember him being a Saints fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

23rdSaint Posted 13 February, 2015 Share Posted 13 February, 2015 McCarthy was in the year below my brother at primary/secondary school. Definitely wasn't a Saints fan then. Glad he's signed a new contract though. Definitely has big potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As SuperSAINT has said, Surman definitely is but going further back Steve Moran definitely was/is. Didn't Matt Targett say recently when he signed his new deal that he was a fan? Franny Benali of course, who could forget the You Tube 'shoot the Pompey scum' clip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Rees Posted 13 February, 2015 Share Posted 13 February, 2015 He went to Hounsdown - Saints fan or not you can't really get anymore local. Yeah my mate went to school there with him, think he said he was a Liverpool fan or Man U, either way a glory hunter:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cat Posted 13 February, 2015 Share Posted 13 February, 2015 The picture him at Arsenal Youth was the first that came to light. He said that he played for them for a year but was always a Spurs fan. Then the picture of him celebrating a title win was published and I'm not sure if he's responded to that. But he's definitely one of their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
