Not sure if this has already been done , but was wondering who holds the accolade for the earliest Saints game, I’m only a youngster but will kick it off with the following.
9th August 1969 - home to WBA - lost 2-0
My dad took me to my first ever game and it was a treat for my sixth birthday.

Monsieur 130's first game was in 1932.

It's why he remembers Portsmouth's heyday with such clarity.

Would you be happy with Rishi Sunak as a new Saints owner?

23rd of April 1960.

Bournemouth and Boscombe Athletic ( as they were known then ) 1-3 Southampton.

Played at Dean Court ( as it was known then ).

We wore gold shirts and black shorts if my fading memory serves.

Eternal thanks to my uncle for introducing me to “The Saints”.

Poll:

Where will we finish in the upcoming season?

This is why I , like many AFCB fans, refer to them as Boscombe.

I am often asked why I do this.

Your uncle like my Dad set us both up for a lifetime of triumphs and tribulations, only wish mine was still here to cheer on the team in the new season.
