today was the passing of the Club's saviour, Marcus Leibherr

Where would we be now if he didn't spend some of his pocket money to buy the club, and where would we be if he was still around today

I thought I'd just google his name and although described as a German-Swiss businessman, quite rightly obviously, but all the photos that spring up are those of him with that smile on his face and the scarf!

God Bless Him

Very grateful for his decision to buy into the club and what a great time it's been since then but also would have been interesting to see where he would have taken us if he hadn't passed so soon after his purchase.

True supporters will never forget the greatest signing that Saints ever did was when he signed to buy a club out of luck and nearly out altogether and transform it into a top 10 premiership team RIP Markus 10 years on.

He was there with the funds and vision when there was no-one else in sight.
Southampton FC and their fans have been very fortunate.
I imagine fans of football clubs like Bury, Bolton, Coventry or Wigan would be wishing for a similar benefactor.

Raises a glass to the memory of Marcus Liebherr.
