    Yep. I've seen Le Tiss talk about this goal a few times and he always says he didn't actually know where Schmeichel was but tried the chip because he'd seen what Albert did the week before and hoped he was in the same place.

    Ah yes remember that result well mainly due to Keegans " it will be a long time before anyone puts 5 past Man Utd again" quote :1980_boogie_down:<laugh>

    No problem, I think in the dark times we have more than enough glory to bask in and who doesn't love a trip down memory lane.

    Glory isn't just for Champions and Cup Winners, for teams like us it's the little victories!

    If anyone else has any cuttings, whack them on here, wish I kept them all( this particular piece was used as wrapping around some china during a move!).

    Even forgetting his wonder goal (every time I see it, it gets better), Manning made a difference for me when he came on.

    I didn't know we had a positivity thread <cheers>

    Biggest positive today? Will Still being tactically flexible, and actually trying to win the game. We would not have won that under Russ.

    Yeah also he laid into Quarshie at one point for giving the ball away (think for the Bazunu save). Need that sort of thing. Don’t think Welington even speaks English.

    Easy to miss it last year as there wasn't much to feel positive about, but now we are in the best league in the world, let positivity rain down on us all!!

    Could this be the turning point for the season? I hope so!

    The defence the last 2 games more than makes up for a lack of confidence in either GK. I would happily go with Bazunu purely as he will surely get better and better where as Macca is past his best so is only going in one direction.

    Armstrong hitting some form, has to play!

    Quarshie again playing well, I thought he was very good against Wrexham and some of the stick he has gotten is unfair. He is a beast and will push on with more experience, has to play!

    Wood and Edwards both deserve to play so a back 5 it is.

    Charles, Fellows, Azaz all need to start.

    Good to see Ross play a full game, will do him the world of good, for me he should play.

    Let's kick on and get a run going to rival last time in the Championship!

    Final positive thought....Saints are a team in promotion form. Of the last 3 seasons Saints had a chance of promotion, we did what was needed and got promoted.
