Sonic Boom, it wasn't any trouble at all to type afew words and paste a youtube link in reply to Spot51. Perhaps the fact that I even mentioned the behaviour of some of your fans, nearly forty years after the event, might give an idea of how bad it was. Enough said, I must get back to obssessing, but it is unlikely to be about Southampton FC. Good luck for tomorrow, hope you get a draw.
"I remember him (especially his header, Luton away, 1978) and my memory is shite!"
Bmth fan here, was living near Ascot at the time and went to the Luton match specifically to watch Ted, not to watch you lot. Can't remember if Phil Boyer was playing. I'd seen Ted score loads of goals for Bmth including the diving header at Villa in 71/72 ( or just go Aston Villa v Bournemouth 1972 on Youtube ) but the header at Luton had to be the hardest I have ever seen anyone head a goal in nearly 50 years of watching football. He headed that almost as hard as most players could kick it. I had a perfect view from where the cross came in, Ted timed his run to perfection, the net bulged.
I was ashamed to come from the South that day. The behaviour of some of your fans and the abuse they were dishing out to heavily outnumbered and frightened local fans was appalling.
