Archangel Posted 24 September, 2019 Share Posted 24 September, 2019 My first post here, having been a lurker for a couple of years. I was one of the younger ones at the Milton Road end and got to know Dougal when he picked me up off the deck after an Arsenal fan brained me with a glass bottle. I somehow became one of the lads and had lots of fun at home and away matches. I loved the Dell and have recently gone to St Mary's as a carer for my best mate who is unfortunately confined to a wheelchair. Anyway, I'm pleased to hear Dougal is still alive and kicking. Does he go to St Mary's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrensup Posted 24 September, 2019 Share Posted 24 September, 2019 Wouldn't play Boufal in these conditions. Given it's just going to be a mess of a game I'd go with: McCarthy Bednarek Vesterguard Yoshi JWP Romeu Højbjerg Bertrand Armstrong Long Ings You do actually what us to score a goal right?

Useful Idiot Posted 24 September, 2019 Share Posted 24 September, 2019 thought ambulances took you to hospital, not home? They think any self propelled vehicle with four wheels is a weird, magical device powered by witchcraft. You can't expect them to be able to tell a bus, a taxi or an ambulance from each other.

Wurzel Posted 24 September, 2019 Share Posted 24 September, 2019 We've now reached that time of the day as kick off approaches when my mindset changes from "It's just another game" to nervous anticipation and a "we have to smash them " attitude.

Shance Posted 24 September, 2019 Share Posted 24 September, 2019 I am absolutely ****ting a brick over this game now. This game could kick start their season and even though we were 2 leagues below them, they've never let us forget the 4-1. Lose this and this generation of Saints fans will never live it down and will never be allowed to forget it. Time for our players to step the **** up and write themselves into Saints folklore!!!

In Eisner's first get together with his new board he asked why they weren't playing their great rivals Southampton more often and suggested creating a new cup that they could compete against each other for every season:mcinnes: True story.

Until the rivalry became more bitter and intense in the 70s, we used to play each other nearly every year in friendlies, which were usually testimonials for the 2 clubs' players. My favourite was when we beat them 7-0 in the John Milkins Testimonial at Fratton Park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monk Posted 24 September, 2019 Share Posted 24 September, 2019 Building slowly down here. Weather has done a complete U turn as it stands. Rumours of Naylor being out but Harness may make the squad.

Archangel Posted 24 September, 2019 Share Posted 24 September, 2019 Must have met you myself then.John lives near Highcliffe and very rarely goes now.Quite a few of us old blokes still have season tickets and meet up on the odd occasion. I got stung by a hornet on the IOW and I ended up with a pure white patch on my head a few months later. I remember Dougal wetting himself laughing and he called me 'Badger' which seemed to stick. Those were great days and even though we were always struggling in the league there was a hardness about the team and none of this corporate rubbish there is these days. Anyway, it would be a pleasure to meet up with anyone from back then. Hoping tonight goes well and we well and truly stuff the rabble down the road.

He ate Tottenham supporters for breakfast and even the match coppers left him alone. As a 15/16 year old, you felt quite safe with him at matches.
