STANDING ORDER FOR GOALDEN LOTTERY
|
FAN PROFILE NAME- Seano FIRST
HOME GAME EVER SEEN-24 April
1993 v Frickley won 2-1 with Stevie Haw scoring two goals.We were presented with
the NPL Championship trophy. My Dad let me run on the pitch to see us being
presented with the trophy and I was hooked. FIRST
AWAY GAME EVER SEEN-The FA Trophy tie at Altrincham in
Wembley season. We won 2-0 with Brian Ross and Phil Bolland with a bullet header
getting the goals. There were a lot of Southport fans there that day in a crowd
of 1196 BEST
GAME EVER SEEN-There have been a few crackers, the FA
Trophy semi-final against Slough when we won 1-0 springs to mind as does the
away trip to Mansfield to see the giant killing act. However, it has to be last
season’s FA Cup game against Notts County. The day had everything, a comeback,
a sending off, great goals, TV coverage, it was a day I’m sure no fan will
ever forget. WORST
GAME EVER SEEN-Whilst there have
been a few crackers in the best game seen question there have sadly been some
shockers as well but Southport v Gresley Rovers in the FA Trophy in 2001/02
season springs to mind as being particularly bad. BEST
OCCASION-I know it’s boring but like most of
the others who have completed these profiles it has to be going to Wembley. Even
at my young age that will probably be the best occasion of my life. I still wish
I was old enough and loved the club as much as I do now though to have
appreciated it as much as most people did. (It’s funny even as I type this out
I still get goosepimples just thinking about it-Rob) WORST
OCCASION-Being relegated at the end of last
season but I don’t want to go into detail about that because it’s in the
past and it’s time to look forward to much better times and a “re-birth”
of Southport Football Club. FAVOURITE
EVER PLAYER-Steve Soley, after he turned down a
move back into the Football League and a return to his mates at a club he was
loved at by the fans. He played some great football for us and got unfair abuse
from a lot of fans for being injured which is something he could do nothing
about. Anyhow, he was a true man about it and left us on good terms. FUNNIEST
MOMENT WATCHING SFC-The handbags “fight” at half time
between Phil Wilson and Mark Wright was quite a laugh. BEST
GOAL SEEN SCORED BY SOUTHPORT PLAYER- Peter Thomson vs
Dagenham in the FA Trophy last season. A 90th minute bolter that took
the match into extra time and penalties which we ended up winning. BEST
GROUND VISITED WATCHING SFC- Wembley. I doubt any team in Non
League football could beat that. I also quite liked Chester’s ground but the
team that play there are not in my top 100 favourites! I have had lots of laughs on my travels with my mates
watching Southport and hope to continue this in the coming years. Seano’s enthusiasm and love of the club really
comes through in this profile and if only we could attract more of the town’s
young people to Haig Ave I am sure the club would prosper.
