Wonder when we'll see the first Saints shirt round town?'

They used to sponsor Northwood Club in Cottingham so they had some connections around here.
Remember a decent Brid Town player been poached by them once and the son of a decent local amateur player. Forgot his name but his old man played for Chalk Lane.

Where was Northwood Club ? I have some vague memories of it but not sure exactly where it was

On Northgate ? opposite the park. It was knocked down and replaced by new houses about 25 years ago, maybe more. Reg Morfitt had it. They were a top Sunday League team back in the day and played in Southampton colours. Remember a Saints team photo on the wall in there.

Kudos to the board at the New Dell...most clubs would have binned the manager after that 9-0 .

Good to see Leicester still up there too.

Still not seen any Leicester shirts round town even though they won the league.

Back in about 2007 I was in Anlaby and there was a young kid on a bike wearing the latest Southampton shirt . I had a chat with him about the shirt , his dad was from Hampshire but had married a Hull girl .
 
There was a point where Southampton were interested in Mark Greaves. It never happened. Later, we let him go to Boston.
