My Yellow and Blue one for LC final v Forest didn't last long at all!!

 

Did anybody else here do the cringe worthy wearing a scarf around the wrist look?

That wasn't cringeworthy. Round the wrist was the way to go.(also made swinging it around in the air to Que Sera easier)

Cringeworthy was the "tucked into waistband at hip so scarf hangs vertically down side of leg" look.

scarf around my wrist - that was me!!!

 

but as everyone else was doing this at the time I didn't stand out as a complete d*ck.

[OldNick]

The News Portsmouth 1978, I bet this was a best selling edition lol

 

The next thing I found is not Saints related but is a German propaganda leaflet dropped over Southampton in the 1940's
