Thread | Great Home Games Against Wolves
at 17:22 12 Mar 2025
Probably the best one in my time was the Cup victory in 2003, although our 9-3 victory in 1965/66 must have been superb, Chivers 4 goals, Paine 2, Sydenham 2 & George O'Brien.
Bizarrely Wolves scored 1st in the 1st minute
In 1980/81 Saints were missing the injured Kevin Keegan but still won 4-2, Steve Moran scoring the 4th goal in only his 2nd appearance for the club, both as a late sub made it 2 goals out of the 2 games, Mike McCartney, Graham Baker & Chris Nicholl |

The full details arent through yet but this statement has just been released by the club, more to follow.
Southport Football Club can today confirm that they have parted ways with first-team manager Jim Bentley and first-team coach Alan Morgan.
Jim took over the club with the side rooted to the bottom of the National League North and turned the club’s fortunes around, steering us to a comfortable 16th place finish safely above the relegation zone.
The Board of Directors would like to place on record their sincere thanks to Jim and Alan for their dedication and professionalism during their time at the club.
Club Chairman Peter Mitchell said: “On behalf of everyone at Southport FC, I would like to express our gratitude to Jim and Alan for their hard work and commitment. They have conducted themselves with the utmost professionalism throughout Jim’s tenure, and we wish both every success in their future endeavours. “
The Men’s First Team will be overseen by David Morgan as the club undertakes the process of appointing a new management team which we hope to conclude as soon as possible. Any enquiries regarding the position should be directed to club COO Andy Burgess on andy.burgess@southportfc.net

A very winnable home game on Saturday, it has been an awful season, but perhaps the crowd can get behind the team on this one and we can get to the hallowed 12 point mark |

Has sent a very scathing letter to Donald Trump, perhaps a reminder of what things used to be like for those countries under the USSR.
Your Excellency, Mr. President,
We watched the report of your conversation with the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, with fear and distaste. We find it insulting that you expect Ukraine to show respect and gratitude for the material assistance provided by the United States in its fight against russia. Gratitude is owed to the heroic Ukrainian soldiers who shed their blood in defense of the values of the free world. They have been dying on the front lines for more than 11 years in the name of these values and the independence of their homeland, which was attacked by Putin’s russia.
We do not understand how the leader of a country that symbolizes the free world cannot recognize this.
Our alarm was also heightened by the atmosphere in the Oval Office during this conversation, which reminded us of the interrogations we endured at the hands of the Security Services and the debates in Communist courts. Prosecutors and judges, acting on behalf of the all-powerful communist political police, would explain to us that they held all the power while we held none. They demanded that we cease our activities, arguing that thousands of innocent people suffered because of us. They stripped us of our freedoms and civil rights because we refused to cooperate with the government or express gratitude for our oppression. We are shocked that President Volodymyr Zelensky was treated in the same manner.
The history of the 20th century shows that whenever the United States sought to distance itself from democratic values and its European allies, it ultimately became a threat to itself. President Woodrow Wilson understood this when he decided in 1917 that the United States must join World War I. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt understood this when, after the attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941, he resolved that the war to defend America must be fought not only in the Pacific but also in Europe, in alliance with the nations under attack by the Third Reich.
We remember that without President Ronald Reagan and America’s financial commitment, the collapse of the Soviet empire would not have been possible. President Reagan recognized that millions of enslaved people suffered in Soviet russia and the countries it had subjugated, including thousands of political prisoners who paid for their defense of democratic values with their freedom. His greatness lay, among other things, in his unwavering decision to call the USSR an “Empire of Evil” and to fight it decisively. We won, and today, the statue of President Ronald Reagan stands in Warsaw, facing the U.S. Embassy.
Mr. President, material aid—military and financial—can never be equated with the blood shed in the name of Ukraine’s independence and the freedom of Europe and the entire free world. Human life is priceless; its value cannot be measured in money. Gratitude is due to those who sacrifice their blood and their freedom. This is self-evident to us, the people of Solidarity, former political prisoners of the communist regime under Soviet russia.
We call on the United States to uphold the guarantees made alongside Great Britain in the 1994 Budapest Memorandum, which established a direct obligation to defend Ukraine’s territorial integrity in exchange for its relinquishment of nuclear weapons. These guarantees are unconditional—there is no mention of treating such assistance as an economic transaction.
Signed,
Lech Wałęsa, former political prisoner, President of Poland |

He has just left Tranmere Rovers by mutual consent, ie they have sacked him, but they like him so let him go with dignity.
Perhaps he could take over from Juric till the end of the season |

at 09:58 26 Feb 2025
1. Never really liked going to Chelsea, it seems like a club with no heart in the community where the stadium is, I doubt that many Chelsea fans live near Stamford Bridge.
2. The away section has a great view from the upper tier, but the facilities are cramped and poor.
3. Fair play to the 3,000 Saints fans who turned out, great support
4. London prices are criminal, I can understand why you can charge £7 for a pint in central London, but not in the suburbs
5.Don't get me started on South Western Trains |
