Reply | Worst Southampton V Portsmouth Game You Have Been To
at 19:01 5 Oct 2026
Obviously any defeat is bad, and the 4-1 at their place in particular. The 1-0 the season before wasn't much fun either. We didn't start playing till the last 10 mins and could have scored twice. Just once could well have sent them down
The 4-1 defeat at SMS was weird in that we battered them first half, David James was superb and then we just ran out of legs. And that night I started to feel rough and was soon hospitalised with pneumonia and pleurisy. Probably because of them. |

My old man wouldnt take me in 84 as he "didn't want me in the way". Not that he ever took me anyway, but I did want to go! I was only 10 though
96 was my first win and it was all pretty easy. Remember all the pubs in town being shut and having to go to the Two Brothers pub (Bitterne?) where I got spectacularly drunk.
The 2-0 League Cup win was great. Probably the edgiest atmosphere SMS has had.
The 4-0 League Cup win was great fun as well. Fratton Station afterwards in particular |

I watched Pressure the other week. Pretty tense stuff, and very well portrayed.
Currently reading Warday, which is set in 1988 and a limited nuclear strike on the US and the aftermath of that. May give it a rest for a bit as I start to scare myself |

I once dialled an 0898 number that was advertised in one of the Sunday papers and told my mum it was Saints Club call, as it was less of a bollocking |

I had forgotten that Mozart Estate were supporting tomorrow. Think may be supporting The Coral as well. And probably Michael Head. He is certainly a character... We'll arrange a beer at that Michael Head gig. Where will you be travelling from?
I want Oasis tickets so my two boys can go. If I go as well, great, but want them to go more
I was in Glasgow the other week. I didn't know there was Paninaro shop. Probably just as well |

Thats how I feel as well. I dont think he is good enough for Saints at the moment but maybe he will be a better keeper in the future, in the way that Tim Flowers er, blossomed after a spell out of the limelight.
It is the personal abuse that I don't get. None of the players that receive it are wilfully bad, and abuse will not help them |

They were singing that at the League Cup game the other week and it is still catchy. Remember singing it myself after that game 10 years ago as well |

Just saw the Bolton highlights. Credit where it is due, Bazunu won them that match today.
As I type some Birmingham player just produced what must be the worst miss I have ever seen. Wow. |

Ah ok. I don't remember the stand we were in being that big, but it does make sense (and it was 30 years ago) |

1. Yeh, decent city and the pub we were in seemed nice enough apart from some weird religious fundamentalist trying to pass off some religious nonsense to me as he walked in.
2. I went there in 96 for a league cup replay, but couldnt work out which part of the ground I must have been in then, so perhaps the whole ground has been rebuilt?
3. Good atmosphere from them, and the stand opposite me (I was in the temporary stand) went ballistic when they equalised. Our support was pretty dull and unimaginative. Also, I can't get the people who celebrate the spying thing with chants and/or T Shirts. It has completely screwed us over
4. Performance was not good enough. I am not sure we created a chance, given that the goal was out of nothing and Scienza's shot was hardly a chance
5. Manager got the subs wrong. Even if they aren't fully on song, Larin, Scienza and Azaz need to be playing as much as possible. On the plus side, Downes & JWP could be very good for us.
5b. The kit we wore is the best kit we have had in ages |

We did play there around 40 years ago, with a 1-1 draw in 1988. I went to the one in 96 where we scored 3 late goals to win. I will on the 0648 Lincoln Express from Winchester Centraal Saturday morning |

I'd imagine that you'll easily be able to get tickets for Burnley, Blackburn, Preston, Stoke off the top of my head. Maybe Bolton, Sheff U, Boro and Norwich. Any midweek away further North than London should be ok |
