As there is nothing much happening Saints wise in the International break, we take a look at some of our archive pictures starting with a man who can truly be called one of the greatest players ever to have played for Southampton Football Club.


MICK CHANNON IN TYPICAL FASHION TAKING ON A DEFENDER AT BIRMINGHAM CITY IN 1980.


MICK IN POSSIBLY THE MOST ICONIC SAINTS KIT OF ALL IN 1972


1973 SAW A NEW STYLE KIT AND MIKE MODELS IT FOR THE CAMERAS WITH THE OLD ARCHERS ROAD TERRACING THAT WAS KNOCKED DOWN IN 1980 IN THE BACKGROUND


1973/74 WASNT A GREAT SEASON FOR SAINTS, CHELSEA ARRIVED AT THE DELL ON 6TH APRIL 1974 IN A RELEGATION 4 POINTER (IT WAS 2 POINTS A GAME BACK THEN, BUT NOBODY CALLED GAMES 4 POINTERS) IT ENDED 0-0 AND SAINTS WERE RELEGATED ON 36 POINTS, THE FIRST VICTIMS OF 3 UP 3 DOWN AND CHELSEA STAYED UP ON 37
