No-one probably cares about this apart from me and Skiver but what a fucking result! I still can't quite believe that we managed to score 6 goals in a single game even with 8 of our regular first team injured. Now why can't we do that every game...
Scoring 6 goals away from home I'm still laughing now!

And you would be right!
Hey - you posted a reply
When was the last time your team won 6-0?
I'd rather live down south than in the 'pool
We had two 6's in one season when we were good. 6-0 against Besiktas and 6-1 against Bradford. Now a win would be good, any win!
I beleive the last time we scored six was an amazing 6-5 win away to Motherwell in 2000.
i wouldnt - it's too expensive...not doin that again
Dunno, probably against some shitty Championship side like Southampton anyway!
Over two games but shhhh
Funny you should mention that, because I believe the last time Southampton put 6 past any team was when we beat Man United 6-3 in 1996. One of the greatest games ever and a fantastic time to be a Saints fan
And a Newcastle fan too iirc.
Not too good to be Peter Schmiechel that week!
Lets face it tho, there hasn't been many.
Typical southern fairy comment.
Southampton - enough said really, i mean ... southampton. :chin:
There have been loads of awesome moments in the life of the Saints thank you very much. Far too many to spend pixel space enumerating here.
I actually live in Winchester which is nice and pretty far away from the urban decay that is Saafhampt'n. Full of chavs and scooter gangs. I am very proud of being a southern fairy as it turns out.
Good for you!

FIVE TIMES FIVE TIMES
So? You're a much bigger club, with much more people living in the area, a richer city, a northern city so kids play football on the streets instead of going to school (:D) etc. etc. To be honest, I'm glad I support a smaller club because it's when they do well against the big boys that it's really gratifying. I mean, if, God forbid, you were a Chelsea or Man Yoo fan, that would be totally shit. Fine you win all the time, but you're meant to win. So in winning, you don't get that much of an elation as it's what you're meant to do; it's what's meant to happen. For smaller clubs, since you're not expected to do that well, a purple patch is seriously enjoyable.
Take Saint's 2003/4 season for example. That was one of the best seasons we've ever had; 8th in the league, FA Cup Final, Europe and having the 2nd top scorer in the country. It was such a great feeling that season. Sadly I was on my gap year and not able to go to as many matches as I would have liked but the highlight was watching the Saints beat Arsenal 3-2 at home. That was a quality game of football.
In my opinion, supporting a smaller club is fantastic as you expect less and thus moments of success are all the more special eg. 1976, Matt Le Tissier etc.
Saints had one of the longest runs in top flight football - 27 years.
Watching them wallop Man U 3-1, Man U blaming it on the grey kit, and then kicking their arse again the following season 6-3.
Le Tissier scoring the winner with a quality goal in the last minutes of the last game at the Dell, against Arsenal.
Plus there's pretty much every goal that Le Tissier scored.

Not bad for such a small club.
Let's not forget Man Yoo were relegated in '74 then stormed back two years later to get beaten by Saints in the FA Cup final.
Then as Skive points out, there's the small matter of a certain Matthew Le Tissier...
Bothered Bothered Bothered.
Thierry who?
Personal favourite is the goal against Blackburn. Turns the defender inside out twice then lobs home from 35/40 yards. What a player.
You should be.
Isn't he the only non striker to have scored 100 goals in the premiership?
When you take into account how good most of those goals were and that he scored them whilst playing for Southampton, that's something special.
He scored against Wolves and played pretty well. Think this was his 2nd or 3rd game back. Good to have him back given the injuries we've got at the mo. Let's just hope Rasiak recovers from his virus quickly.
:yes: I still think Le God was the best player of his generation who was unforgivably overlooked for England by Venables and Hoddle in favour of nobodies like Rob Lee et al.
Plus was loyal to his boyhood club and stayed there his whole career despite big money offers from Liverpool, AC Milan and a few others. Shows that he was loyal and not a money-grabbing wanker like most of the Premiershit players these days.
Left flowers on his back in goal.
That, the free kick against Wimbledon and the goal against Arsenal in the last minutes at the last game at the dell menaing a 3-2 victory. My favourites.
My Old man was there when they won the Cup and he made a fortune selling the commemorative mirrors. Still got one at home.
I remember as a kid, when I used to live in Soton and my old man used to take me to The Dell - Le Tissier, Shearer, The Wallace brothers. Havn't been to St Marys for a over a year now because of work.
Love his outlandish goals too.
Still not bothered.
