    Hi everyone

    Hopefully a little bit of fun and a little bit of nostalgia that will help get us through part of the summer.

    The aim is to find our favourite Saints moments from the past 11 seasons, reminisce about moments that stand out and ultimate find a 'winning moment'.

    This will take place in three phases:

    1. Collecting the Moments

    Over the next 2 weeks, any poster can suggest any number of moments; these could be matches, goals, off-pitch memories etc.

    I'm also happy to allow nominations from non-PL competitions (so pre-season, FA Cup, League Cup, Europa League etc.)


    Deadline for nominations will be in two weeks' time: 10th June


    2. Voting

    Once all suggestions are in, there'll be a final 'shortlist' that posters can vote on.
    You will be invited to rank the moments in order of your favourite.
    Posters will be invited to submit votes by PM (so as not to influence other posters' thoughts)
    Voting will be open for approx. one week



    3. Results

    Results will be revealed, with scores being based on an average of all posters' ranking positions.





    So for now please feel free to suggest any moment or match you think is worthy of being included!
    (You are not saying this is your absolute favourite!)

    Danny Ings' 20 goals in a season.
    Ingsy's winner against the Scousers
    Redder's occasional worldies
    Gabbi's vital goal against Swansea.
    Dusan's brace against the Mini-Skates
    Nat Clyne's screamer at the Emirates

    Lambert scoring with his first touch vs Scotland my favourite moment of this era.

    Lallana vs Hull, Mane hatrick and Tadic ripping Sunderland apart my top 3 games at St Mary's.

    Could've really used the finishing acumen of Sunderland's defenders this year.

    Jay Rod’s goal against Fulham, assisted by Rickie’s glorious 60 yard pass from the corner of our box.

    Beating Leicester 2-1 at the King Power a couple of months after getting whopped 9-0.

    Underrated achievement. We were 1-0 down as well.

    Also, beating United 1-0 at Old Trafford in two consecutive seasons.

    Spurs 3-2 away.

    Nothing can beat Shane Long in the semi though.

    Dani Osvaldo’s goal against City deserves a mention, just as a wow moment. Along with Che’s forty yard first goal for the club to beat a dominant City.

    Bloke behind me barked his shins on my seat when the third goal went in. Must have been quite painful because there was a lot of claret. Did he care? Not a jot!

    Someone else nearby shouted out “Have some of that Klopp, you big toothed metrosexual weirdo!” which was funny at the time.

    Dani was worth every penny of whatever the **** we paid for him (I stopped paying attention to transfer fees years ago), for sitting Vincent Kompany on his arse before scoring that goal.

    Thumbs up to the DJ at Anfield for playing “Hey Jude” as we were leaving the ground. And to the taxi driver who took me to the station the next morning, plus all the scousers I talked to that day, for being so gracious.
