    Last year, but not last season. 18-19. Keita squeezed one past Gunn, and we allowed Salah to break away from our own corner with 10 to play.

    If it never happened then we might not be where we are today. Ralph may not have signed the new contract, we may not even have stayed up....

    I agree, in hindsight it was the kick up the arse we needed, and we’ve never looked back.

    Still never happened though...

    Am I the only one who takes a weird strange pride in it now?

    Love pointing out that we have an identical record to them since, and that in the same season we lost 9 nil at home we won more games than Arsenal.

    Nope. I'm treating it as kind of a badge of honour now. What we've managed to achieve since then - beating a lot of the big sides, our form etc is quite incredible.

    It would be good to have the threat of Danny on the bench but an opportunity to start Adams and our new super striker Vestergaard up front.

    He stands just over six foot three, Vesty, Vesty,
    He'll take us to the Champions league, Vesty, Vesty
    When he gets the ball he couldn't be calmer
    He wears the shirt of Carlton Palmer
    Jannik Vestergaard, Southamptons goal machine

    Carlton Palmer must have been waiting 30 years to his name sung about another player.

    Do not forget that we have always been Newcastle's bogey team.

    Six foot six, but close enough.

    Well you find something to rhyme with Jim Magilton.

    All I had was Peter Shilton.

    I'm sure this has been discussed but have we ever had a fleeting moment at the top since the inauguration of the Prem?

    When he gets the ball he’d even beat Shilton,
    He wears the shirt of Jim Magilton

    He’s maturing nicely like a stilton
    He wears the shirt of Jim Magilton

    or

    He’s classy like a night at the Hilton
    He wears the shirt...

    or

    He’s awkwardly shaped just like the Milton
    He wears the shirt...

    or

    Is that the table I put my Lilt on?
    He wears the shirt...

    Okay that last one’s a bit iffy.
