Vote For Totton's Steffan Brown As The FA's Player Of the Round
AFC Totton need a boost from Saints supporters ahead of their 2nd Round FA Cup tie.
As some of you will know in each round of the FA Cup, the Football Association nominate 5 players as Player Of The Round and ask supporters to vote for their favourite.
The nomineees are usually those that have done something outstanding in that round and in the case of AFC Totton's Steffan Brown, his nomination is because of his superb 15 minute hat trick after coming on as a sub in the first round victory over Bradford Park Avenue.
The player with the most votes will receive a commemorative Budweiser Player of the Round trophy and he will also be invited to The FA Cup Final at Wembley next May as a guest of The FA and Budweiser.
So lets try and get the award to someone local perhaps ahead of hopefully one of our own Saints players in the third round in January.

Southampton Set to Take Keeper On Loan Earlier this season it was reported that Saints were looking at Bayern Munich keeper Daniel Peretz, currently on loan at HSV Hamburg. Now these rumours are re surfacing, but is Perez really an upgrade on Gavin Bazunu.
Southampton At Birmingham City The VerdictSaints didn't change much from the side that started against Oxford United on Boxing Day and for a long while in this game it looked like they might get the same result, however they dug in and showed spirit to get a point, but it was a bitter sweet evening.
