SuperSAINT Posted 16 February, 2016 Share Posted 16 February, 2016 Was it really 17 years ago?! Must've been the early days of the Internet. I think I can remember seeing that we'd taken some Latvian striker, recommended to us by Gary Johnson (who was Latvia manager coach at the time?) on trial. Think he played in a reserve or behind closed doors friendly, scored a hat-trick and we signed him straight up. The rest is history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shance Posted 16 February, 2016 Author Share Posted 16 February, 2016 Loved the man. Such a shame he was plagued by injuries. Would've been a true all time Saints great otherwise. I remember him crying on the end of season lap of honour as he'd decided to call it a day. :,( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkish Posted 16 February, 2016 Share Posted 16 February, 2016 What a great little player he was. A terrific striker and such a shame injuries ended his career. He'd Although he'd be bang in trouble if he signed for us these days, took a few games to find his feet, I remember him missing an absolute sitter in one of his early games, I think it may have been away at Derby. If he'd have signed today he'd have been labelled the worst player since Stig Johnsen by then and be ironically cheered every time he beat a player.

Saints Fan Dan Posted 16 February, 2016 Share Posted 16 February, 2016 Latvia's Micheal Owen! Never forget him nutmegging Jaap Stam, his goal against the skates or his brace against Everton to keep us up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shance Posted 16 February, 2016 Author Share Posted 16 February, 2016 I was there for his goal against the skates and it's my favorite Pahars goal. Such a nice bloke as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
